Regarding the LOS for Dish, does anyone know if a flagpole (3" dia 1/4" thick-wall, oil drill pipe), placed within 20-25' of the dish would impact the signal reception? Thanks

Having a little trouble with 97W. We moved, and needed to relocate the dish. It is a 36" generic I have used for years. My wife uses it for all the Glorystar channels. The required transponder is 11842 for all her desired channels. But I am having some difficulty with locking in. I am...

Is it possible to remove the HDD from a 622, put in an enclosure, and then connect to a Hopper 3 via USB port, and use as an external HDD to access the recordings already on the drive? Anybody done this, or does it seem feasible / plausible?

Any known issues with this bird for pointing at 53.0W to receive AIT? Can someone provide correct meter settings for 53.0W? (provide a link to a list of the TPs with Freqs and SRs). Thank you.

Okay, don't laugh... Is it at all possible for an FTA dish to lose it's reflective ability? I've got a generation one (10+ years) GeoSatPro OLD gray dish, that for some reason, I just can't get any signal on. Alternatively, I have a brand new GeoSatPro, just shipped, that I was able to lock...

Using a multi-switch, can an FTA dish, and an HD OTA antenna share the same coax to feed a single television, or do the FTA dish and OTA dish each have to have their own coax going to the television? Looking at a current DTV home (3 televisions watching DTV) that is switching to FTA and OTA...

Was recently gifted a GEOSATpro DVR1000ci... I realize that this unit is a bit aged, and it seems to have issues. Wondering if it would be worth sending out to have diagnosed and repaired or not. When I scan for channels, it doesn't want to pick up ANYTHING; reports BAD on any / all...

A few channels have moved from 97.0W to 129W (Church ch, TBN, Enlace, Smile of a Child). So, need to add an additional dish and a switch...my question is, and if anyone can drop names or provide URLs for products recommended. 1. an additional FTA dish; I know some of them are made like...

I recently installed a FTA system for a friend aimed at 97.0W, and he is using a new Amiko mini-HD SE. The LNB is a GEOSATPro SL-1 bullet. Upon install, S and Q were 92-93 and 72-73 respectively; blind scanned and saved what the receiver picked up, using a television with the Amiko at the...

Just rec'd a gifted Solomend PVR800... Went to replace the other unit to try this out, and can't get it to the antenna setup mode. I have a fixed dish at 97.0W. The only items in the menu I can enter / manipulate are the Lat / Long. I can also see a factory list of birds, and can enter new...

Can I replace a DTV dish with one coax at the dish, and run a two-room Glorystar set up with two STBs, using the one coax and a switch, or will each Glorystar box need it's own coax directly from the dish? If I can, will each of the two rooms be able to watch independently, or would they be a...

Needing to purchase a unit. Now, I know that everyone has their favorite, and thinks thiers might be the best, but wanting to know what brand / model would be good and reliable to start out with, and won't break the bank. Looking at Ku initially, and possibly expanding to add C-band in the...

I would like to gain some information / knowledge for some recommendations and confirming what I might or might not already know... Location is middle Michigan. Driving around, I see a number of old large C-band dishes, that I assume at one point did the job, so I assume that errecting a C-band...

This box won't pick up ANYTHING...tried factory reset, tried Glorystar mode, tried All Satellites mode. I know the dish aligment and cabling is good, because it is used for another FTA box, but when I tried connecting this older box for a friend to see if it works, I can't seem to get it to...

A person has asked if MeTV Ozarks can be picked up FTA from 99.0W using an old GloryStar dish. Is this possible? and / or MeTV from 101.0? Looking at some of the programs on MeTV Ozarks, it seems like those are cable reruns, which one would have to pay for. If this is possible, a second dish...

Situation... Current DTV system installed with four rooms to a home with in-the-wall wiring. Wanting to install a Glorystar 4-room system. Wondering if I can connect both the DTV and Glorystar dishes to a 2x4 multiswitch outdoors, and then use the current four coax cables that are...

I need to put up a dish, but, unfortunately, it's one of those 3rd flr apt balcony jobs that has to go in a bucket of cement. Wondering how, if possible, to ground the dish and coax ground block. I had one idea, but wondering if feasible...Use the ground block, and mount as usual. But use...

Has anyone here ever been involved in installing a dish and connecting into a hotel / motel distribution system? If yes, what is typically involved after the install of the dish and running of the cable to the main distribution point for the signal to be spread to the individual rooms? I've...

I am seeking information for a gentleman that called me regarding Love World Christian Network. I searched LyngSat ( TV - LCN LoveWorld Christian Network - LyngSat Address ), but I don't believe that there are any satellites pointing to the US that will beam this channel. It is a UK based...

I installed a WS FTA dish with standard LNB, aimed it at G19 (because others who have had the same equipment, that's all they've ever wanted), and connected to a Lexium FTA receiver for a gentleman today. Excellent S and Q readings. This is the only type of FTA setup I've ever installed, G19...

Can a Dish Network oval TurboHD dish and the 1000.2 triple head LNB A21201 be used to connect to an FTA receiver, and aim at G19 to get all channels that a universal LNB would receive if used in conjunction with a normal 76cm dish? If so, which LNB head would be used for this purpose, and how...

Looking for the 'best' and / or 'correct' TP / freq / SR for tuning the G19 for a Fortec Merc II non-DVR unit. And, when these settings are plugged in, will it gain the receiver the most up-to-date channels available for GS? Should the factory reset and entering 2020 sequence be initiated...
