    Skybox f5 need help

    Thanks I tried moving it one way, then the other way, all it does is makes the signal worse. still nothing makes no sense. Maybe his sat dish will find it but I doubt it its a smaller dish. Checked the firmware and thanks for the list, but what I got is the latest. Got two new openboxes I did...

    Skybox f5 need help

    No its my dish, and it works great with my Openbox, going to set up a dish at his place Friday, I wanted to preload the codes. I have a motor on my dish, he wont, but that shouldn't make a difference. I tried everything, comes back fast no channels found on the one transponder. Yet that...

    Skybox f5 need help

    Ok I'm getting frustrated, the Openbox is telling me this transponder is better then great, yet the F5 says its dead no channels. I'm beginning to think these f5s are good for the garbage, wish I had more Openboxes but the guy was out of stock. I think I got ripped off.

    This question has been asked 100 times before, but hear goes. On a 100 cm, offset dish, on galaxy 19 The best I can get, is 90 percent intensity, and about 73 percent quality. 1st off, is that normal, moving the LNB does nothing. Ive have a better meter on order, so I can try and tweak it some...

    OpenBox S9 HD 480I/mpeg1 question

    This receiver is sluggish to turn on and off, I can live with it though. What gets me, is that on galaxy 19, all I get is 480i/mpeg1 is that it all I get?. These channels should be mepeg2 minimum, running 1080i (no p option) but that doesn't mean much, its just up converting. Prob says mpeg1 but...
