    Electrical Interference - Break up on channels when my Water or Sump pump kick on.

    Are these 220vac motors with basic on\off motor contactors or do they have DC or variable frequency motor controllers? AC motors with contactors usually only have potential to cause electrical noise briefly at start up. DC motor controllers and variable frequency drives can cause a lot of...

    Relay suprjack V Box

    The relay is definitely a good candidate for the failed part. As long as you have good soldering skills you have little to lose. Look the board over closely for bad solder joints.

    Relay suprjack V Box

    They are both identical electrically and in dimension. Go blue, it will work.

    Relay suprjack V Box

    Looks like an exact replacement. If you haven't already got the SRD series relay I would order the exact replacement. They are both readily available.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    Nope, not using a VPN. Problem was resolved after calling Xfinity support.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    Wasn't intended as an insult, just being factual. I'm a long time user\fan of the site. It has been a great resource for FTA education.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    That would be my guess as well. I enjoy the performance boost after switching from AT&T DSL. It was a chore getting them to show up for the connect. It took multiple calls and hours on hold. I still get an error anytime I go to the web site and click on the my account tab after four months and...

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    Definitely never the first site. I've always gotten a warning message in the past when monthly data usage reaches 90% and 100%. After 100% there is an additional fee billed for each 50G.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    I called. They said I won't get the message any longer. The customer rep said it was because the site streams data and it was possibly to prevent the account from exceeding my data limit. Strange since Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon worked without any pop ups. When I pointed this out the rep. hung up.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    The only time I see this message is when I visit Satellite Guys so I don't see how it could be any of the things you mention. I'm still waiting on the email. I'll give them a call today.

    I empty my trash fairly frequently due to limited disk space. Couldn't find a screen shot in my browser history.

    I already deleted the last one. The message and email have occurred the first time the site is accessed on the last two days. If it happens tomorrow I will post the email.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    Using same link as always with https. The message is specific to the web site not to the link. It still lets me go to SG, just pops up a full screen warning and sends an email.

    Xfinity is flagging Satellite Guys as a questionable site

    As of yesterday when I go to the SG web site XInfinity pops up a warning screen and sends me an email stating that I'm visiting a disreputable web site. Anyone else getting this message?

    Build your own c-band dish

    You're welcome. Reading the old electronics magazines is a great way to study history. There are a number of sites with many titles to read. You can start with the beginning of commercial radio broadcasting in 1920 and see electronics circuits as they evolve. You read about all the problems that...

    Build your own c-band dish

    My best receiver is a Sansui 8080. Not quite the TOTL but still awesome. They sell for more on Ebay now than when they were new. Primestar is correct, they aren't light.

    Build your own c-band dish

    I agree. You would have to spend a ton of money today to match the quality of a late 70's Sansui. Marantz, Pioneer, etc.
