    EHD Transfer menu 722k

    How am I supposed to get into the transfer menu on the 722k? It seems to only come up if I use the help menu then cancel, but I have to do that a couple of times. It's not very intuitive, and I was just curious to what I am supposed to press on my regular remote so I can program my harmony...

    Extended my 625 TV2 by a LONG ways.

    I paid $4 for the antenna and it's completely hidden.... I already use my coax to wedge in OTA TV, so without running another coax I couldn't do the antenna move with the little antenna. An old set of Rabbit Ears with a UHF loop would work too.

    Extended my 625 TV2 by a LONG ways.

    I got tired of dismal performance of my 625 TV2 remote.... I bought one of those ebay HDTV antennas and put on my receiver. Now my remote works from across the house, across the yard, and down my driveway.... Just an idea for those with garbage UHF remote range.

    What's More Important?

    it doesn't matter. buy what you want. It's close enough. The manufacturers measure it all with different meters, so it's all relative. You're not gonna be able to aim the dish precise enough to worry about that minute focal length difference to matter.

    I like my Mercury II, it's quite possibly the best FTA Reciever I've ever used!

    Dish Antenna DIY question

    I think his sunbrella mount is a good idea, he just needs a straight pipe..... It's the same as a chain link fence post, hardware store, $4. Cut yourself off about a 1.5' piece and do the same thing you have there. Leave the skew and elevation alone and rotate until you get the best signal...

    DP 34 questions?

    With a legacy reciever, can I use a DPP 44 Power inserter to power the thing instead of a DP Adapter?

    Complete Review- Fortec Star Mercury II

    I like my Mercury II, You also have a multi satellite scan that will move your dish to all the programmed satellites and blind scan them. Very slick.

    FS: Twinhan Starbox 1

    It's a Twinhan Starbox 1, with remote (remote never taken out of plastic). I'll take $50 shipped for it, I originally wanted it for a mobile FTA project, but haven't the time to make that a viable project any more. My loss is your gain! I do Money order or Paypal

    Position of LNB in bracket

    You can try a degree either way to see what it does to your signal. I set my old motor up for optimum signal on G10R and I ended up twisting it about 2* CW from dead 0. The other new motor is spot on 0. so it depends on the dish and LNB's manufacturing tolerances.

    Position of LNB in bracket

    move it in and out to get the best signal. Also, skew is a variable thing too since it's not exactly mounted. you have to tinker...

    FTA LNBF holder for Winegard ?

    heh, they skewed people by not giving a dish that tilts ;) I have a 30" dish I'd give to someone interested in FTA. I also have a DirecPC dish I'd part with for a few bucks.

    I wish I could bottle up that feed and send it to you gentlemen. Living in the SE US, all the feeds seem to be aimed here :)

    Pole Mount for Large Dish

    I have 2 motor setups on chain link fence corner posts..... both work fine. That setup you have there is 10x more stable than what I have.
