    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Live from PQ, Canada... :) Tele Citronelle isn't there anymore. It's been replaced by Tele Anacoana (or something like that) which has programming in English and in French from what I could see. I sure would like to get TV5 and RFO too... FTA. I also wondered why TV5 was FTA around the world...

    Setanta Sports to shut off March 1st

    John, for the Confederation Cup, I believe it was ORTM or RTS Diaspora. I watched some games of the French Première Ligue on AlKass (a lot of sport there, though in Arabic - weird to wath a French soccer game with arab commentators) - saw many games from the asian confederation. Also soccer...

    Setanta Sports to shut off March 1st

    Up here, Radio-Canada (French side of CBC) was saying (at the end of the Impact season) they'd show all the matches... However, it's still not clear to me if that'll be all on the air or part OTA and part on their website. Another good place to check will be the African channels on 97W Ku. I...

    New FTA service with 20 english channels

    It's been a while since I've been here :o , although I keep coming back to keep inform about what's new in FTA. This being said, I read this thread with much interest and wish the very best to Wally-O and his team. I just wanted to add about the audiobook channel idea - which seems to me as...

    Motor going red

    Thank you to all of you for the hand :). With HER help and your tips, I finally managed a reset, yesterday. The motor is running again (Yeah!), although the USALS is now useless. It'd need a serious adjustment for it to be at least adequate. I don't know if I'll try that... and if so, if I'll be...

    Motor going red

    Euh... no. I'd need a third hand to do that. It seems like to apply enough pressure to each button, I need both my hands... Anyone got a spare hand? Question: When they say power on or off, do we talk about the black switch in the back, or is the sylver button in the front - and accessible...

    Motor going red

    O.K.! The weather calmed down and I went to the dish with the receiver, this morning. Not good. I thought for awhile I had a cable trouble, but the motor does exactly the same thing when the receiver is at the dish than when it's in the house. I don't seem to be able to reset the thing. I...

    Motor going red

    Brian, To your first question: I don't know. For that, I'd have to move the receiver to the dish (and we're still having a mix of rain and snow, here. Not a good day to play with the sat set up). To your second question. No. Well, I don't think so. I usually go to G10r (G18?) and back without...

    Motor going red

    Thanx for your answers, guys. Dreamfox1, I checked the connections. They seem tight enough. Anole, I checked the page you mentioned. I tried to reset the motor. (power off - press on both buttons at the same time - power on...) I got a green light, which became red again as soon as I tried to...

    Motor going red

    Hello guys! My motor (SG-2100) went weird all of a sudden. While it worked great previously, now it refuses to move and the led goes red (on the motor) each time I ask it to move. What's going on? And what should I do to make go again? (I already tried to power off the receiver a few times. The...

    Anyone configured SonicView 4000 with USALS? Please offer feedback

    Well, just installed a sg 2100 with the sonicview 4000 this week-end. Once I got aligned on AMC6 and began using USALS instead of "Motor" (which took more hours than I'd like to admit), the process was pretty straight forward. Of course, at first I had an error in my longitude entry (forgot to...

    SG2100 and distance...

    Well, to make a follow-up, I bought the sg 2100, installed it and... it works!!! USALS and all... even with the distance... Don't ask me why or how. I just know that it works and I'm glad it does :-) Tron, yes, I watch RTN regularly (G10R is on a fixed dish). HER, not that much. We enjoy...

    SG2100 and distance...

    Ah! The WAF factor! I see... SHE loves those house shows (you know, house renovations, house sells and all those kind of things) . Any suggestion on FTA (except This Old House), Tron? Mastermesh, yes I know TitanTv... Great site. Once again, thanks to all for the tips and the good words.

    SG2100 and distance...

    I'm gonna get killed if I start cutting down trees :o. Roof mount won't help either. BIG trees, and the neighbor's barns right in the LOS. Unfortunately, I'm already in the only spot with a clear view. Moving the receiver in the house? That's an idea... If I put it in the kitchen, I'd gain more...

    SG2100 and distance...

    :) Yes, I know, no EPG on FTA... Which is too bad :). I would have liked an EPG on G10... Question: Was the DGHH-990 a piece of junk? I used to have that thing in my set up and it never worked properly. Last time I tried it, it refused obstinately to go West. Even with the manual button on the...

    SG2100 and distance...

    Are you serious, Stogie5150? No-go with USALS? Darn! I was hoping to have it a little easier with that motor... The guy in that review... FTAPRO Reviews the Sonicview 4000 ... doesn't seem to have had any problem with the SV4000 and USALS... Anyone else with that kind of problem?

    SG2100 and distance...

    SonicView 4000. I read in a review that the output for the motor was "strong". I must admit that played in the choice of replacement for my old Fortec Ultra who died in my hands (snif)...

    local channels puerto rico

    I miss those from when they were also on ku... (sigh) Tutu Park... and the cruise they use to advertise ... Not only we had the networks, but also a little dreamin' :-) ... C-Band is still out of my reach, unfortunately

    SG2100 and distance...

    Hi guys, I was wondering... My dish is about 200 feet from the house (trees, you know). Of course, I'd like to motorize it and buy a SG2100, but the distance kind of makes me hesitate... Would the SG2100 work properly so far from the FTA box? Thanks

    Nothing on G10R for me...

    Hi guys, Amerhi, First post for me, but I've been reading you for quite a while... And you helped me like you'd never know :). Thanks. Amerhi, I'm in the Eastern Townships, so I know it's coldish outside lately, but you should have seen me tinkering with dishes in February... Brrrrr...
