    High Definition Channels

    Okay, here's the stupid question of the day, smile and shake your head if you must:) Our analog tv is finally dying and we're going to make the leap to HD. Will the hdtv alone display a hd channel such as Discovery (from my dsr922), or will I also need an HD200 box?

    Mounting Pole Indentation

    I was fooling around with my dish yesterday and found I could get better signals by a small rotation of the dish, maybe a 1/16 of an inch. Trouble is when I tighten, the bolts want to go right back into their original indentations and I lose my gains. Anybody got a simple fix short of...

    blind scanning

    I know I'm doing something wrong but I'll be danged if I can figure out what. Probably something stupid, I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. My problem is that I'm only getting half the channels I think I should be. I'm sorry about the length of this post but I'm gonna start from scratch...

    dsr922 remote

    Hi! Just picked up a nice dsr922 off e-bay to replace my aging 920. Got 'er all hooked up and working well. Only one small flaw that's bugging me. The battery cover to the remote is broken and needs to be taped on. Anyone know where I can get just a battery cover? Thanks.

    Sbs 6

    Never had it on my system, thought I'd try to tune it in. Can anyone tell me of an active C band transponder right now?

    Dish Movement

    Dish will only move west (actuator arm retracting) won't go east. I can hear the 920 4dtv positioner click on and off in the house but no movement on the dish. I checked the arm, not binding. It had been working just moments before this started. Any ideas?

    Amc 4/ Pbs

    The wind knocked my dish around a bit and in trying to line it back up I'm having some difficulty with AMC 4. Can anyone tell me if PBS is still active on transponder 16? Thanks.

    Ac-3?

    Hey guys, I'm trying to get the AC-3 out of my system. I've got a Pansat 2500A and a Sony STR-DE475 receiver. I can see where I've got to plug a line into the S/PDIF on the Pansat. There's something called a Digital Optical TV/SAT plug in on the receiver, is that where the other end of this line...

    Actuator Arm

    I've got to replace the actuator arm on my 10' Unimesh dish. Gonna give it a go at doing it myself and I want to buy the best arm for the money. Right now I'm looking at a 24" Von Wiese unit for $169. Is this a good arm/deal or should I be looking at something else? I use the dish for what's...

    The Outdoor Channel

    I've got my new (to me anyway) Pansat 2500A hooked up to my DSR 920, 10' Unimesh dish, and Chapperal C-Band Feedhorn and lnb. I'm getting some channels but the main one I want is The Outdoor Channel on G0. It is on Lyngsat as free. I can't get it doing blind scan (what is the correct setting for...

    Pansat 2500A hookup to 4dtv 920

    Well I got my 2500A, now I need to know how to hook it up. Can I slave it to my 920?

    Pansat 2500A?

    I want to explore FTA. I currently have a 10' Unimesh dish hooked up to a 4dtv unit (c-band only). I see several pansat 2500A units over on e-bay at what appear to be reasonable prices (compared to my Skyvision catalog). Are these still a viable unit? What should I look out for, other than...

    4dtv 920-922 differences

    Well I've seen one already concerning the 922 being able to convert "lower bit rates" (whatever that is) are there any others? Should I bite the bullet, dump it and get the 922?

    ABC/CBS/NBC on C-Band

    I understand that these channels have been discontinued on analog and the new digital versions are on W3 500 and 501. Well I'm not receiving the digital channels on my 920 4dtv and the provider tells me that I can't but some versions of the drs922 can get these channels. Anyone know why? NPS...
