    Horizons 2 might be in place

    Thought we weren't supposed to post feed information here!

    Onn

    I'm in California, too, and ONN was up roughly about a half hour or so ago before I started this thread. Could the transition to Horizons 2 just have taken place with us folks on the West Coast losing ONN?

    Now I have some signal quality (around 25% or so), but no video. Other feeds are strong. Weird.

    mercury II blind scan

    The length of time it takes to blind scan (power scan is what it's actually called on the Mercury II) depends on whether you select a quick, normal or detailed scan as well as the frequency step you choose (which I believe, going from memory, are 4 or 6). In any case, a quick scan should take...

    4:2:2 - This refers to chroma subsampling, right?

    I actually purchased mine on ebay last year for a lot less than that and have had no problems with the receiver. Just checked ebay...here's a link to someone selling one from Germany (by the way, I bought mine from a person in Germany, too): Quali TV* QS 1080 IR *-HDTV -> 4:2:2-Feeds!!! * TOP...

    Horizons 2 Launch

    Why would people on the West Coast lose ONN? Doesn't CONUS mean that it'll cover the entire U.S.?

    MSNBC Mux

    Never seen the mux before with zero siqnal quality. Usually, if nothing's on, it'll have a black screen with good signal quality.

    I concur with Iafirebuff. The most difficult part of getting your FTA system is making sure that the mount/pole is perfectly plum and that you have a clear view of your true south satellite.

    Echostar Test on AMC2

    Compensation for the Directv Lies?

    I was on hold for 20 minutes before finally speaking with a CSR. Then, surprise, surprise, I got disconnected and had to call back. Then I was hold another 20 minutes or so before speaking with another CSR who then transferred me to a CSR in the "Retention Department". For all of the lies and...

    Well hopefully my Stab-HH90 will hold up in the "cold" Northern California rainy winters!

    Dish Won't Move Anymore

    For approximately a year, I have been using a Stab-HH90 motor to frequently travel the arc from 72W to 123W. Although, knock on wood, I haven't experienced any issues with this motor, I have been wondering what the motor's useful life might be?

    Fortec Passion--Where are you!!!

    Yes, I agree with you, Grusome. It would be really nice to have an all-in-one set-up, if you will, where you can scan and pick up everything without having to switch over to another receiver (i.e. Quali-TV) to plug in the frequency/symbol rate of an HD or 422 feed.

    4:2:2 What is the best method to recieve it.

    I have a DVB World USB FTA Receiver for my laptop and a Quali-TV QS1080IR slaved to my Fortec Mercury II 420 Receiver. Haven't used the DVB World USB FTA Receiver since I purchased my Quali-TV about six months ago. The Quali-TV is great for 4:2:2 feeds and HD feeds as well.
