My family has a subscription to DirectTV in Florida and I would like to take one of the subscribed receivers to Canada. Is this possible? Thanks,

Can I use a PAL PS3 in Canada to play Blu Ray DVDs in my 720p projector? The DVDs will surely be NTSC, but my projector can handle both PAL and NTSC signals. So the problem is not the display, but will the player accept the North American DVDs Thanks,:)

Hello everyone, I can't get Telemundo on AMC 5 anymore. Is it still there? I just got a 120 cm Fortec Star dish and it is HUGE I am afraid to attach it to my motor. Has anyone done this and not fried the motor? Thanks,

It has been a while since my last post, but today i saw a C-KU combo lnb BSC621 C band and KU band LNBF 4DTV I have a 1.2m motorized dish and a couple fortec receivers (lifetime ultra and classic) Should I look into getting one of these lnbs? they are farely cheap. Thanks.

Gentlemen, I just bought my second receiver (Fortec Classic NA) thanks to PSB advice. My qustion now is I have two dishes hooked up to the disecq switch. The main on motor has a single linear lnb. The second dish has a linear lnb and a circular lnb. I am using ports 1, 2 for the second...

I tried motoring over to PAS 9 and it gives me an out of range message. My true south is 123 and my motor should go at least 70 degrees to each side. PAS 9 is at 58 so there is only a difference of 65 deg. What is going on?:confused: :confused: :confused: Thanks in advance for your...

Will a Twinhan DTV 102G - PCI Satellite TV Card receive AC-3 audio? Is it a good card? What can Expect? I know that they don't have blind scan, but I have another receiver. What card is the most recommendable and where can I find one? Thanks:D

I'm reposting this because the thread got lost in my previous posting. In my eternal quest for the highest quality possible signal (as most of us are I'm sure), I was looking at the Invacom SNH-031 and run across a High Gain Low Noise 0.3db Universal Single LNBF Model No. HL-01 on e-bay...

Gentlemen, I am planing to buy another receiver. I have a Fortec Lifetime Ultra and it works fine, but I was wondering if I should look for a different brand this time and what the advantages would be. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks :cool:

Once again, your knowledge is required. As I am trying to lock on AMC3 all I got is the following channels: SNG some written ads SNG PAtient Channel TV1 Bloomberg TV INFO arabic stuff URDU arabic stuff ENGLISH arabic stuff UR/ENG arabic stuff AR/FRN arabic stuff TV3 blank screen low...

Happy new year to everyone. My Christmas present for myself was a new 33" digiwave dish with a GKF 668 universal lnb on e-bay and it's been dissappointing. Compared to my old 32" starchoice oval dish the signal is at least 10% lower. The starchoice gets 60% peak and the digiwave only 45 - 50...

I have a real R&D project in mind::eureka: I have access to 52" diameter plastic sphere cutouts. The cutouts have a diameter equal to 34 inches. Imagine a 52" ball and cut a 34" diameter circle out of it. Will a plastic dish work for KU? or does it need a special coating. I was reading...

Gentlemen, I finally installed my sg2100 motor yesterday with my StarChoice oval dish. My true south is G10 (123) and I can see that one, but I can't seem to find any other sats. Lost my Gol TV, super low quality. I am using the diseqC switch and the motor moves fine. I reinstalled my pole...

Instead of fooling around with extra dishes, switches, diseqcs, multiple LNBs, etc, I decided to invest on an SG 2100 motor on ebay. I just got it and read the instructions. These instructions tell you how to mount the dish, but are not very clear about how to set the correct angle. The...

Does anyone know why G10R has low or no quality? I keep getting no signal. Thanks :confused:

How far can we spread out the lnbs on a 32" oval Starchioce dish in order to receive more satellites? I am aimed at g10R + 110W with 2 lnbs right now and would like to receive AM3 and AMC5 going from 79W to 123W with one dish. Is it possible? The next question would be how to account for the...

I have two DTV receivers that I have no interest in using unless there is an FTA application for them. One is an RCA and the other a Sony Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks, :)

I found out last night that I get 64% quality from the 110W Echo6/8 without having to move my dish which is pointed at G10R. I tried to get their FTA Gol TV, but all I got was the D121 "Congratulations you have installed your dish" and no other channels. Do I still need to setup the old RCA...

Well, I have decided to put the old RCA oval dish to work and from a previous post I saw that Gol TV is FTA. Which sat carries GolTV so I can aim at it? Will I be able to hook up the RCA dish to my Starchoice switch or do I need to use the Disec that came with the receiver? Thanks, :D

To Iceberg and Pete....... :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: my FTA setup is working like a treat! Thanks to you guys. It's the one with a Fortec Lifetime Ultra and the Star Choice (beer cans) My question is: I get a low (50% and lower) quality on the 11720 TP so I can only see those...

I am trying to get my Fortec receiver with a Starchoice 32inch oval dish dual LNB. Is this a good combination? So far I haven't been able to get quality. Level is 76% I am in Vancouver, Canada. Which settings should I set the receiver (LNB Type, etc) for best reception? Any hints will be...
