It is not that difficult to install a dish for the first time. I started out on a single fixed dish and now have 2 fixed dish's. My next step will be a motorized dish (got the motor from sadoun yesterday). Bottom line is make sure your pole is plumb (both before and after you put the dish on...

I normally catch it but I had to work so I didn't get to see it tonight

Yep, DirecPC dishes work great for FTA. There were 2 or 3 sizes of the DirecPC dish but they all will work. Chris

I read somewhere that it is mandated that DVD Burners (STB) produced after this month (Mar 07) will have to have the ATSC tuners in them. The article I read said that this was going to kill off the VCR/DVD combo players due to the extra cost associated with producing them with the ATSC tuners...

Same here, I just used mine for the first time this past week and it went from a game that took 30 or so minutes (find the sat) down to about 40 seconds (no kidding). This was on G10, my wife asked what happened when I got back into the house so quickly :> It helps to find the sat and then...

I can say that it was working for me most of the day here (I have several timed recordings that went off at various times today, no problems whatsoever). Chris

The 1025 was the low profile version of the 1020 (I believe). The only difference was that it was low profile (wich made it easier to use in SFF systems). I have no clue on the differences between the others, I ended up finding the best deal I could on any of them (because I believe they are...

My biggest problem is that everytime I say something about FTA, people think I am talking about stealing programing. It seems everyone knows about the theft of DN signals but almost noone knows that there is stuff up there that you can get for free.

WOW That guy sure gets around :D

So far what I have come up with is I am just going to use an older tablet and allow it access online (through a proxy server). I have allowed access in the past for my htpc however I am getting enough tv/movies/data etc on there that it is not going to be a simple reformat if I end up with a...

I need to rerun some cables (they are ran behind some bushes that we are going to cut down). I need to get a motor (and install it). I need to move 1 of my two dishes so that I am not pointed right into a tree (it makes getting IA5 a bit dicey) Paint 1 of the dishes (the other is brand new). If...

Hello everyone, I have all of my FTA/ota channels inserted into titantv so that I can see what is on tv at any given time. The question I have is, is there anyway to either download the listings as a text file/xml file or is there a parser that can take what you get off of there and format...

Mine is 100% supportive as well. It helps that we only have OTA and FTA as our tv sources though :> She has made me go out and setup the dish (wind blew it off track), and she even helped me run the wiring when I needed it. All in all I cant complain. I do believe that I will hit a limit...

Personally I still use the old satworks 3618 (I purchased it used from the classifieds board). Works great and it is fairly easy to setup.

I am interested in 2 if you get them in (returns). This is a great price on a receiver (my kids may actually get tv in their rooms now :>) Thanks, Chris

Depends on what part of arkansas you are in. I live just north of Russellville and I cant find one anywhere (I live out in the country also). There are quite a few around but they are either still in use, or they have been damaged beyond repair (there is one just down the street that has all...

Sigh...... Guess thats why I was having problems sighting in my new dish to g10. I knew it was there (but I couldn't find it). Anywas it is back up and running here (at the moment). I always pick the best days to try and do my projects :( c-ya Chris

I dunno of any local stores to me either. I just use sadoun for purchases (just got a satellite meter from them this week). I do wish there was a place local though (so I could see the receivers up close prior to making a decision as to what I wanted).

You probably got the best of your choices. I have the 1025 and to be honest I will be picking up another card pretty soon. Its not that the card is bad, I have always gotten it to work however it seems that you have to have the moon in the correct alignment to get it to work well. Alot of...

JerryK did have a good point though (which was not addressed). If you are not a member of the WUT area (which many are not) then should people not post the information (at all) or should they pm it to a mod (so they could post it there if needed)? There have been several feeds that I have...

Merry Christmas

I also would like to give my best regards to pete, good luck to you (thanks for all the help). Chris

There was an article in our local paper about how many of the people are buying the system in order to flip it on ebay for a profit. Most said they would get at least a grand off of it (a grand in profit). To be honest thats not too bad for a few hours of waiting in line :D I am just not...

yep ya cant retract a bid 8 hours prior to teh end of the auction and what not. What I would hate is to get the bill for the Final Value Fee's :>

I use the twinhan card for now.
