I have a v-box III from dms international bought a few years ago. I now after a 130 mile/hr. wind find I have to realign the dish mount. My normal true south was/is 129W but there is no linear ku signal there to align with any more. I have to use 125W as my most south alignment satellite now...

I just bought a Coolsat 8100 HD micro PVR and am not able to add a satellite into the 125.0W slot, factory file lists c-band but no Ku and this machine will not allow both C and Ku to scan without changing the LNBF information and saving then re-scanning to get Ku band a real pain but it does HD...

Want the manual for the Orbitron SX-12 spinmount. I used a homemade bubble level and protractor to align mine perfectly the first time.

I've got an OLD OLD OLD Phillips with a 10.00 work light bulb mod, gives great picture but may not be HD quality but it's better than what it replaced and it's a projector. The bulb mod cut the cost from 325.00/bulb when you can find them to 10.00 new hardware store or .50 garage sale and take...

The DMS International site has a bulletin about over tightening the connector cable on the BSC-621's and turning the Ku lnbf inside the housing and how to check it and fix it if it is turned. Mine's turned but can wait till spring now before I'll venture out to look at it, then I'll knock down...

I tried to hookup both my dsr-921 same as dsr-920 but Canadian with polarity slaved to my pansat 2500a, if the 921 was on and you tried to switch channels with the pansat that was on a different polarity, both machines tried to manipulate the polarity. then the fight for control was on and you...

The hardest part of the 2500a is that the current and factory binary files have been modified to exclude most of the c-band satellites and the transponders are all out of date so getting signal quality to lock onto a satellite is harder, find your true south and manually adjust the linear lnb...

I have a number of Pansat 2500a's, all running the factory 222 or 224 binaries, before Blacklist that are no longer being supported by Panarex, what I'm looking for is an uncontaminated boot file, all files on the panarex site and most sat sites are contaminated and the satellite list no longer...

I use a hockey puck cut down on a lathe to fit the inside of the scaler ring, careful though I have non Chaparral Lnb's and there diameter is different, not a standard inside measurement, with a 1/4 inch center hole drilled in puck on the lathe as well and a straight fiberglass tent pole section...

Cheap V-BOX III Contacts: One other thing I'd like to mention is I have never seen such CHEAP SPRING LOADED CONTACTS that are on the back of my V-BOX III. I have twice lost the spring in 2 of the contacts and spent a couple of hours trying to to get the springs back in these extremely poorly...

V-box III's move the actuator using the DiSEqC 1.2 commands in the satellite box's menu usually under motor control , I don't think any of the v-boxes use the USALS commands to move the BUD actuator however there are small BUD type actuators that use the usals commands to move a smaller dish...

Your true south setting is off very slightly, 1/16 inch of pipe diameter is a very large move. Very little steps to fine tune. Best tune for me was to align the true south satellite and tune in a Ku digital channel at .3 degree's off of true south and set dish at .3 degrees off with actuator...

Setting focal point This may have nothing to do with anything, my newly received Orbitron manual places the focal point for my SX-12 dish at 50 and 1/8th inch, measured from the dish surface to the scaler ring face and F/D ratio of .36. The dish formula places the focal point of this same dish...

Declination For this type mount, the declination is supposed to be a painted mark on the mount ring pipe, now long gone to the degree tape on the mount pipe. The declination is right when the dish points lower than the mount, which would place the longer 16 inch measurement to the top when all...

Orbitron Yes the 12 footer was motorized at previous location, the 6 ft Andrews is a prime focus dish from the old cable company, the Orbitron came with an 18 inch lite duty Von-Wiese and I upgraded to a 24 heavy duty, when I took it out I marked it but it was not assembled properly at previous...

The original setup manual would be nice as there is no marks on this thing except for the measurements I've taken. The mount came to me with the 16 inch side up and really didn't work worth a crap. Just to know for sure which measurement is to go to the top, 14 or 16 inch as the 15 inch...

Does anyone have the setup instructions for an Orbitron dish mount in the picture, original dish was destroyed in 100+mph wind, original dish was a 12 footer. The mount is straight as far as I know. The large ring has a welded pipe that is off center from top to bottom by 14 inches from pipe...

alternate box What SC receiver is recommended for basic services??? I'm using a DSR-921 star choice box with a perfect 10 dish and a c/ku band lnbf with ku side numbers @10750, 11.7-12.2, .03 whole thing is setup poorly, screen Options-6-0-5- right-right sets me at +5.1 to 6.0 but it works...

Clarification of use The dish as it was stock does *choice with a stock *choice lnbf, used in fringe areas of the north gives way better signal than the 30 inch dish, LESS RAIN FADE. Good *choice dish. Same dish with bell lnbf and puck gives stronger signal to bell system. No RAIN FADE real...

Unmodified *choice, with linear lnbf FTA with DSS lnbf you figure it out works with all, with different 40mm lnbf's. Maintains proper lnbf to dish alignment and keep's signal in the sweet spot on dish.

With linear lnbf Puck mount with linear lnbf. Couldn't load all 12 pic's this is last 2.

I started with a *choice30 inch and went to 39 inch *dish (free for the removal). Both had stacked lnbf capability. To use for FTA and maintain dish alignment of lnbf the following pictures worked for me. Not being sports minded I hope not to offend but this is the only good use for the...

Is it possible to add to the forum list a place where members and others can list bad deals and places for the new people to avoid when making internet purchases. A place like this could have saved me $147.53 CDN. and now all the BS I will have to go through to get my money back or get the...

Yah I found out why you can't, I hooked up a 3-wire jumger from analog to pansat skew control and even with the pansat off the skew alternated from one box to the other giving a real crappy picture because it never stopped trying to setup the polarity. remove wire great picture If I want outdoor...

Ok from diagram the c-band splits to both box's, where do the skew control wires go to analog reciever or digital reciever or to both boxes, into pansat and back out to the GI 4730a so that both can control the servo on the corotor as needed to get a picture on both even and odd transponders or...
