    Hot transponder ? 87W - 95W

    I'm looking for the hottest tp between 87W and 95W , to set up my 4 foot little ugly dish. This is my first setup of a fixed mount prime focus dish ( which doesn't make it any easier) , and being a 4 footer, not as easy as my old 6 footer. :) Thanks for any help ! Brent

    Apparent Manhattan bug in front panel programming

    This all started when my Manhattan remote control unit ( rcu) quit working. I changed the batteries and it worked for a minute, then quit again. So I started thinking it was MAYBE the new 4.0 firmware I'd just loaded ( It wasn't , as it turns out). 1. I started trying to use the...

    Manhattan Update 3.4 thread

    New thread for version 3.4 specific issues. Apparently 3.4 is a tiny bug fix, because of a wrongful re-booting issue. According to Stone1150, "rebooting issue from hittong the zoom, or res button is fixed." I haven't noticed any difference from 3.3, which is probably a good thing. It still...

    Issue with 103W C-band 3840 H 26661 Blindscan

    While I'm playing with the new Manhattan firmware, I noticed that I can't blindscan the Ion Networks tp . This is on both Manhattan's AND my Solomend 800 . Haven't seen this before. A preset scan works fine, I have a 73% Q , but it goes undetected on blindscan. This is even after a power...

    Manhattan Update 3.3 thread

    Thought we could start a new thread about reaction to the Manhattan 3.3 update, date 30 Sep 2011. I've loaded it on two receivers, and am happy to see the 22khz control in all motorized and fixed menus. Haven't found any issues, yet. :)

    Manhattan RS-1933 Thread

    Let's open an unofficial RS-1933 thread, to post our observations on the new receiver. Maybe it'll help someone. I just received mine and pulled it out of the box, but I'll have to wait until after dinner now, to hook it up. I'm pretty excited to have a new toy ! :)

    Download section

    I just noticed that we have a Download section, although nothing is in it yet. Early days, but it could be useful. Has anyone heard what protocol we'll be using to upload files for consideration ? :)

    Gold Sponsors ?

    I kinda miss having the Gold Sponsors on the top of the page. Fact is, I don't see them anywhere, though I haven't looked "everywhere". I think they should be more obvious. :)

    Scart adaptor on Sathawk/Solmend 800

    Anyone with the Sathawk knows that setting the resolution to 1080i , also sets the composite output resolution to that illegal value, so the composite output doesn't work. You have to set the main Video res to 480i to get the composite output to work correctly. Has anyone used a SCART...

    AZBOX Elite Network interface died ?

    Help ! :) It seems that the network interface on my Elite has died. I can't get it to work with any of several firmware versions, and on the status page, the MAC address is all ZERO's . Since the MAC address on these boxes is encoded on a small chip, I think it's dead. Other than that the...

    Fun with a 4 lnbf

    Well, I've been having issues when I try to use a 3x4 multiswitch with my Invacom QPH-031, to split out to more receivers. So I picked up a DMX524U 4 output Universal lnbf from Galaxy marketing, and it is working out just fine, so far. I'm using two of the outputs to drive a 3x4 multiswitch...

    Pansat 2800 question

    I'm looking through the menus on my Pansat 2800 ( I don't use it much ), and I can't find out how to turn OFF the LNB power. I find that I can do it in Channel Master, but wonder if it's a menu option in the stb itself. Thanks for any ideas. :)

    Spring Fever !

    We've had about 3 days in a row, where the sun comes out ( rare in Michigan winter), and the temp soars to the mid-30's . Wow, I say. So I went out to my dishes and pulled off all the switches, and setup direct lnbf cable runs . Any switches used now will be in my little room, behind the TV...
