    Coosat 8100HD: Weird behaviour

    I have a CS8100 and CS6100; the LNB feed signal goes first into CS8100, then CS6100. I have been watching NET (Nebraska PBS) on G28/89W lately and something really curious is happening: On the CS6100, all the signals are OK, but on CS8100, some channels like 9, 11, 15 pulsates about once a...

    Has somebody have any info about the forthcoming CS8200: specs and availability ? I might be tempted to buy a CS8100 but I would be really :mad: if the CS8200 appears on the shelves in just a few weeks/months from now. Mike

    A question about Coolsat 8100 HD

    Is it true that the unit can do dvb-s dvb-s2, qspk and 8psk, but not 4:2:2? I have been told that CS8100 has the capability of 8psk out of the box (no need of an add-on board), but I cannot find any confirmation on the specs . Mike.

    DiseqC Woes

    I have a C/Ku setup with a Drake 1724 analog receiver (see my sig); I use the Drake to move the dish and activate the skew of my LNBs. The system has been working properly in analog times. To use the digital signals I used for some time a PC card, and lately a CoolSat 6100 receiver; I am using...

    Coolsat 6100 Private: a true one or a clone

    I received yesterday a CS6100 Private that I had ordered on the Net, from an authorized dealer. It seems that there are some Coolsat clones floating around, so those you are knowledgeable here, can you tell me if my receiver is legit or not. In the User's Manual, I see no reference to the...

    Clear QAM via satellite

    If I am not mistaken there are some satellites on C band, maybe Ku don't know, that are sending QAM for Cable in the clear; I am the owner of a new Panny 42pz77u that has a NTSC/ATSC/QAM tuner. Is there any way to feed these signals in the Panny; I am using a Drake 1724. Mike

    I am trying to get the nets on Galaxy 16 (99 W), tp 13 3950 H 122296 - ?. If I read lyngsat correctly, these are digital, clear signals. But my software client (Linux/MythTV) detect encryped ones. Are they really clear ? On another thread one speaks of G4 for FTA; where is it located ? I...

    LNBs ok for FTA ?

    Hi everyone, Since the mid-90s I own a 10' BUD with CorotorII/C/Ku lnb for analog reception. Lately I got the idea to use my BUD for FTA reception; I have just bought a DBS-S PCI to experiment. I made an add-on on my dish with the addition of a DSS LNBF to catch BEV and DN; reception OK. But...
