    Apartment / MDU installation questions

    You may want to reread,it states that a monthly fee is not legal.It is not up to the customer/tenant to maintain the dish and wiring.That falls on the property owner,they are the ones that don't want separate dishes at every apartment. Q: If my association, building management...

    Locals Question

    You can either install a new line all the way to the back of the receiver,or use a diplexer to combine the signals outside @ the ground block.Then use a second diplexer to seperate the signal inside @ the receiver.For this setup I use the Winegard GS2000A W/Voltage Regulated Diplexer ,they work...

    No Satellite Signal...Tried Everything????

    I would start by checking the receivers for voltage @ satellite input connection.I have seen a lot of receivers that will power up but don't send the voltage out to the dish.Mostly cause from either power surge or near by lightning strike.

    D10 Remote

    You will find that a lot of the TV/VCR combo units will not program using the TV mode.All I can tell you is either try using the code search option or try your luck with an aftermarket universal remote.I know it is a pain I go through it almost every day.Emerson combos seem to do better than the...

    oval dish not pointed correctly

    Are you sure it is not pointed right?Maybe the receiver is only configured to look for 1 satellite.Try going into your menu and setting dish type to 3 LNB if it is not already.

    Satellites Unlimited: Argh!!!

    Have you considered Directv as their sats are a little higher you may be able to clear the trees.Also they don't use the "super dish" so a roof mount shouldn't be an issue.
