Nasa & Angel @ Echo7? Is Nasa and Angel not available on Echo7 (119) anymore? I tried pulling it in on my Pansat and Twinhan with no luck yesterday. I haven't tried looking at it in a while and I re-did all my stuff and would like to start watching it again. From "The List": I used 12372...

Some of the guys at work are constantly poking fun at this great FTA hobby of ours. It is always in good humor and today they ran across something that really made me laugh. They are always joking that people that do what I do (FTA stuff) are the same people that wear those tinfoil hats...well...

I just relocated to another city and finished moving all our stuff to the new house, that is everything except for my BUD. So I had an opportunity to go by the old house again (which is more than 90 miles away) and pickup my old 6 footer, but I had a challenge...I was driving the mini-van...

I noticed the other day that my signal on G10R was a little weak but still showing programming. Yesterday (10/14/08) most of the transponder signals were either gone or very weak! I'm using an old DirecWay dish (36X26) which has always given me a solid signal in the past but now - near nada...

Anyone out there using or tried this software: gbpvr.com - Home ? I have been using DVBDream (works OK I guess) and struggled with MythTV and just getting frustrated with stability with those and in multiple software platforms. I ran across GB-PVR today and it looks VERY promising. I was just...

Quite a while ago I acquired a free 6 foot dish. It sat on the ground for a while. I recently found an analog Uniden Digicipher II receiver and it works (powers up and displays on the TV anyway). Problem is, I don't have a remote control for it and some of the setup features requires a...

Does anyone know if CCN (on 97W or any other bird) has any programming in the clear? I noticed from THE LIST that it is red and is showing some encryption but I was curious if there is any way I can receive this programming legally. They have some broadcasts coming up that I am interested in...

I have been a faithful user of DVB Dream but have been having problems lately. I have been reading a bit on Prog DVB and I was curious what real world pros and cons are about this product. I have a P4, 2Ghz, 1GB RAM with a VisionPlus/TwinHan 1030A. I was curious if I can do simple regular...

...whenever I change channels. I never used to have this problem, but now when I change channels I just get a blank screen. Anyone else having this problem? I am running the "i" version and before that version (ie. "h", "g", etc.) it ran flawlessly. Yes, I have tried uninstalling and going...

Handy at Ku, Newbie at C, HELP Please I picked up an old 6' C band (yes I know 10 feet is better - but I got it free) the other day and I've been dying to get it going. I also found a Uniden 4400 Super / Videocipher II Plus IRD at a flea market of all places. I was hoping to run the LNB feed...

When I first put my dish motor on I was able to get this satellite (43.0°W Intelsat 3R Ku) but when I replaced my single LNBF with my Invacom Quad Standard I'm unable to get anything on this bird. I'm using USALS and I even went to manual to bump it slightly with no go! Also, I'm receiving 61W...

...can anyone help me find one on Ku?

I have looked around a little bit and haven't seen much definitive information to sway me to buy one yet but I was hoping to get some input/advice from the members here on this one (I see Iceberg has one in his profile). Maybe someone could do a product review on this device and even compare...

I think I have a pretty good understanding on this subject, although I still have room to grow of course! What my question is: Do I have to use DiseqC ports in pairs? For instance: I am using 22khz switches and multiple DiseqC switches but specifically I would like to just use ports 1,2,3...

OK, so for months now I got the Pansat, diseqc, motor, etc thing down and everything is working great there after much work. I just may be exiting the newbie stage here - until... I decided to buy a TwinHan (VisionPlus) 1020a card and install MythTV (via MythDora). It went through the install...

Will this card do 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 HD? I am setting up a MythTV box and would like to make sure this does HD in addition to SD before I buy it. I currently have a Pansat 3500SD and I want to make sure I can get the other feeds that I am missing out there without buying a HD receiver which...

Echo1-2(148), G10R(123), Echo7(119), Echo8-10(110), Single Dish Solution I have had several people ask me about how I have done this so I figured I would post some information about it. I have written this up and posted several pictures about this setup on my BLOG. You can find the link...

I was driving through the countryside yesterday and noticed that someone had a BUD and a small dish. I figured this might be a perfect candidate to see if this person still wanted their BUD and to my surprise they were going to trash it. So today I'm heading over there to pick it up for FREE...

First off I'd like to say how much I appreciate this forum. I have been scouring the internet and continually find myself back at this forum when finding the information I am looking for. As I said, I have been lurking for sometime and this is my first post so I hope I'm not making the normal...
