Im using my openbox s9 on my 12'er with a dmx241 lnbf and no switches for c band only. I have the lnb set at 5150 on the box and everytime i do a blind scan i get duplicate channels and transponders. for example, the rtv's on 3800V29124 will also scan in as 3800H29124, so i get 2 tp's and 2...

Well, i found 3 of these things this last weekend, so i thought i'd bring one home. It seems to be in really good shape, with just some rust on the mount that can be sanded and repainted. My questions are: 1. it came with a Von Weise v76-5 actuator, but it was all rusted and froze up, so on...

I found this add on craigslist from a guy thats about 20 miles from me who has 2-10' fiberglass dishes, 2-6' fiberglass dishes, numerous drake, uniden, houston tracker, lnbs, motors, all kinds of stuff for next to nothing. Does anyone know what kind of dishes these might be and would the 10'...

Ok, heres goes....i currently have 4 VIP 211's for 4 tv's. I was planning on getting rid of 3 of the 211's because: (1) now it's just me and the boss here, and i don't need dish on every tv! and (2) i'm getting tired of paying "Sir Charles" 7 bucks a month for each receiver! (and i own them!)...

I was looking around on lyngsat and found on one of the Anik sats (F1R i think) some channels with MPEG-1.5 encoding. What is this and what kind of box decodes this? Just curious, never seen or heard of this one before.

I finally got the Equity mux on G26 to come in, but they all scanned in as: tv1-3820h Galaxy thru tv25-3820h Galaxy. I have a list of the channel names that is on that TP, but it doesn't have the pids. Does anyone have a list of the channel names with pids, or know where i can get one? I'd like...

I'm no artist, so after your done laughing at the drawing, help me out. I have 1 RG6 cable from my 39" dish and 1 ribbon cable off my 8' running into the side of the house into one of the spare bedrooms (now my play room). I want to hookup 3 of my receivers. The Coolsat has nothing but KU sats...

I've seen these receivers around and was just wondering if anybody has one. I read one (yep, that was it, just one) review on some other site searching google that gave it a good review. Just wondering if anybody has one and any problems they've had with it.

When ever i decide which hd receiver i want to get, i'll have an extra pansat i'd like to put out in the garage. Can i use a 5-2300 mhz splitter to run a cable over to the garage from the 8'er? I don't care to move the dish, i can just move it in the house and watch whats on the sat i'm aimed at...

I know i've read about this on here, but i can't get my 8'er to track the arc! I'm at 40N lat & 86W long, and can't pickup anything East of 61W without moving the elevation on the dish. If i move the elevation to get the "east" sats, i lose all the sats from 72W to 129W including my TS sat at...

I'm using a Chaparral MicroPak 3G lnb on the 8'er, and just to tinker somemore, i wanted to try to pickup NSS-806@40.5W, which is a circular sat. I inserted the di-electric plate into the feedhorn, and not only did that not work, but i lost half of the channels on the linear sats. What did i do...

I want to edit my satellite and channel list on the pansat 2800a. since the 2800a is suppose to be an update of the 2700a, i tried to use the channel master program with no luck. then i found out you need the 2800a loader, so i got that from the pansat web site and everytime i try to download...

I know i can slave my Uniden & CS together, but to get c band, i have to go into the menu on the CS and change the lnb freq on the sat i want to watch. So i'm thinking of just leaving the CS alone for just the KU bands and getting another setup for just the C band. Heres what i'd like to...

Well, i finally got all the parts to the "BIG BUD" i picked up a couple of weeks back, spent the last 3 days out in the 95+ degree days (i look & feel like a french fry) diggin and installing everything, and it WORKS! I still need to do a little tweeking here & there, but it actually works...

Yoy guys will be in for a treat! I just got a free 10' Unimesh dish with pole and a Uniden Ultra receiver, and i know absolutely NOTHING about c-band! So when i get it put up, get ready for the questions to start flyin :D I do have one question now. I got this Uniden Ultra receiver, no manual or...

Anyone notice the VIP211's got a software update last night? It has to be a partial phase, only one of mine got it, the other 3 are still L345 version. The difference is in the diagnostics menu. It now has a Analysis button. Click on it and you see a USB test button (mines greyed out) and a HDMI...

My 39" fortec is blocked by trees and i can't get 123W anymore (i get all the other sats from 30w-129w). My brother-in-law gave me a complete Globecast 75 elliptical dish, and i was going to mount it out in the field away from the trees, and use it for just 123W. Well, i can't get anything! I've...

Well, i WAS picking up something on just about every sat from 30w to 129w. Now i got a tree about 100yds away and it must be blocking 123w because i can't get that sat at all now! I was looking at lyngsat the other day, and seen that on 95w there is some equity stations on it, but on c-band. Can...

Well now that i have my fta ku sat working, i'm about ready to tackle the c band world! BUT, i'm lost...what do i need? I'm looking at a 10ft mesh dish, but whats the difference between a mesh and a solid dish? which 1's better? What kind of motor do i need? lnb? Will my coolsat 6000 work on c...

Last night i was flippin through the sats from 30w to 129w and everything was ok. today i flip through and when i get on a circular sat, the dish takes off to the east! (example: i'm watching gnf movies on 97w, and i go to 110w. instead of going west to 110w, it heads east) i have 2 lnbs...

well it don't take much to get me confused, but on my setup, i was using a qph-031 lnb for the circular & linear birds. had all the settings correct in the receiver and hooked up right to the switch, and everything worked great. then i got a universal lnb, dss lnb, and a multi bracket to do some...

my setup right now is a 39" fortec dish, qph-031 lnb, hh120 motor, and a coolsat 6000 receiver. over the winter i got a multi lnb bracket and a universal lnb. so the weather today got up to a whopping 34 and i went out to play in the yard with the satellite. hooked the bracket to the arm...

When i got my coolsat 6000, it came with a card reader installed. what can i do with this? can i buy a card from some "company" to watch their programing? i've noticed like on sat 91w, nimiq 1,3, (bell) that they have some channels we don't get on our E* system, and just wondered if you can get...

Every since i've had the dish hd pack (about a year), i've had an ota antenna to pickup my locals, and the -01 channels have always had the guide, and the -02, -03, -04 channels always showed "digital service". Not long ago, ALL the channels started showing the guide info, till yesterday...now...

Does anyone with a coolsat have a program guide? All my coolsat 6000 ever has in the guide is "NO INFOMATION" Just wondering.
