Yes I caught that, but a lot of things get said only to find that it might not be nessisarly so, and when the Openbox came recommended not once, not twice, but three times I thought it was appropriate to ask! Terry

Some of the channels that I would like to get are in 422, if I can't get those channels I have no use for a new box this is the reason I am interested in 422, I was thinking seriously about the Sathawk, then I went back and looked at the audio format only to find that atleast two of the channels...

Will it do 422? Thanks Terry

Ok so is the SSO the sathawk? I have been searching and can't realy seam to find that out. And does it do 422? Thanks Terry

ONe of the things that I did not like about the AZbox is that it did not have blind scan, but I see now that they new ones do have blind scan, I might just see if I can come up with the funds for an ultra, I think that one will do what I want, I don't realy need any front panel display. Can some...

Ok I have been looking at the AZBox again, how relyable are they?

Hello Guys Ok I am thinking of getting an S2 HD receiver, I have read a few threads on here, but it is hard to get a good over view of which may or may not be best, I don't think I can talk the boss into an AZ box, but what is the best of the rest? Thanks Terry

Ok after following and reading the links that have been posted in this thread I am able to get my Primestar dish working again, I had to raise up from what the guage on the side said it should be so it was an aiming problem. Thanks for all of the help, and the replies. Terry

Ok the LNB turns freely, way freely, I think I will take it off of the feed horn and see if I can see anything wrong with it, cuz I don't think I can break any worse then it is now, so maybe I'll get lucky, maybe not. Thanks again for the help and the posts. Terry

Ok that is what mine looks like, how would you skew the dish instead of the LNB? Terry

Ok the LNBF is not round, but I am sure it is the original, I have seen a cuple that look like it, it is flat, kind of like a sardine can, but larger, it mounts to the feed horn on one of the flat sides, then it has the leeds that you hook the cable to on the bottom, one for H and one for V, it...

Yes I have all original equipment, it used to work on, well I can't remember which sat it was, there where a lot of RetroTV channels on it, anyway it worked great, but now I can't even get it to show signal, or quality readings at all, that is why I am assuming it is the LNB, I have adjusted the...

I guess I should have mentioned this...duh, anyway I would like it specificly for 101 W at this time anyway. Thanks Terry

Will tis LNB take advantage of the eliptical shape of the dish? Thanks Terry

I would prefer to use the one that came with it, but I am afraid it has died, don't know if I killed it some how (my guess is I did) or if it just gave up the ghost, so anyway not wanting to get rid of the dish I would like to just use an LNB, but would also like to take full advantage of the...

Darned if I know, my dish is gray in color, it is eliptical, the LNB that is on it is bigger then a sardine can, but flat like that, the feedhorn part of it is kind of wege shaped and had what looks like cellifain covering it.

I have a primestar dish, the ovol shaped one, anyway the LNB went junk, I am wondering if there is a good aftermarket LNB that would work well with it, or if I should just forget it and get a new/different dish and LNB set up? Any help would be greatly appresheated. Thanks Terry

Thanks for the information! Terry

I have a primestar dish I would like to dedicate to this sat, problem is I'm an idiot, I had this dish set up to pick up a sat, can't remember which one it was, it had a ton of RTV channels, on it along with a bunch of other channels, when that sat went away I tried to find 101 but can't, so...

The problem with tweeking the LNB is that I have my dish mounted high, like 12' or more, and on the side of the house, to work on the LNBs or feed horn I have to swing the dish around to the north, over the roof so I can stand on the roof and work on the dish, I liked it much better before my...

Thanks, I ordered a Chieta last night after doing a google search for the best switch, it was shipped today so just as soon as it gets here I guess I will find out. Also not sure what you mean about where the switch it located in line, I use my 4Dtv to move the dish, then I have my C band side...

Ok a new developement: Today I had to rescan some sats, don't know what happend but I lost all of my channels, anyway I got History, and Bio scanned in, the signal was ok but not great, the sky got overcast and the signal kept comming in and going out, for what ever reason I got the idea to...

Ok so I peaked the dish as close as I could from the receiver, then went out and adjusted the up down, I could only turn the nut like half a turn to raise the dish before I started to loose the signal, I was able to gain a little bit but not much, then wile I was up there I tweek the dish left...

Ok I tweeked my dish and am able to get a little bit better signal, atleast it does not drop out now when I watch them, I pulled down on the bottom of the dish and lost the signal, I pushed up and got a little bit better signal, I see there is a bolt that I can adjust for the up down on the...

That's what I was thinking, I will have my daughter watch the signal wile I push up and down on the dish rim, just in case this is the problem where can I find information on setting up the dish? I have never done that before. It just kind of surprises me because I had a real good signal on this...
