    Awesome Directv headend I'm building for a hotel

    I would like a larger version dish to use for my home set-up. I like bigger for less rain fade issues. That's the reason I tinkered w/the elliptical prime star dish w/Directv LNB. I got all the sat OK, but gain I was getting wasn't worth spending a whole lot of time peaking all the sats on it...

    Awesome Directv headend I'm building for a hotel

    Looks like you have an HVAC in the headend. I used to put headends in, in the old C-band days. Have done lots of maintenance on both Dish and Directv headends. I've stopped lately doing those or even computer headends. Health issues w/my neck makes it too painful these days. If they ever do my...

    SWM on a Primestar dish

    Well got around to messing w/Primestar elliptical dish today. I didn't play w/it that long so it's not completely peaked. So I may mess with it again to see if I can peak it some more. It's no where nearly as strong of a signal as the DTV dish right now. I don't know if it will peak as well or...

    SWM on a Primestar dish

    The focal length I'm not worried about. It's the spacing on the LNB that I worry about. With there being 3 in one enclosure and the throat being so different is what may be an issue. Should be about to find out soon. I've finished all the cutting and trimming of the arm. Just need to assemble it...

    SWM on a Primestar dish

    Has anyone ever mounted a SWM LNB on a Primestar dish? Was wondering if I will see much gain. And yes I have a mount that is skewable so that I can angle it to hit all 3 birds (99, 101 & 103).

    AT&T Weighs In On Net Neutrality

    That is total bull in my area. Not only does Suddenlink tier the speed they also cap the bandwidth. Both A.T. & T. cap it to 250Gb. If you go over you pay additional fees. The only hi speed net(above 6 Mb) on my side of town. U-verse stops about a block away from me. On the S side of the city...

    Format an HR 24 HDD

    That's exactly what I'm using. It won't format it. Found out it is not unusual. The HDD will not internationalize. I'm hoping that EaseUS will be able to do something w/it. But thanks for the suggestion.

This has turned into a royal PITA. Well at least the HDD didn't cost me anything. May just order another HDD and try now...

    Format an HR 24 HDD

    Hope someone can help on this. Some neighbors down the street were evicted from their rental. The landlord threw most of their stuff in the dumpster. In this stuff was an HR24-100. So I retrieved it. I checked w/ D and it couldn't be used as it had been a leased unit. So now I have the HDD out...

    Panasonic TU-HDS20

    That's what I thought. Just needed to confirm. I'm trying to sell it w/ a 32" Panny HDTV. So wanted to make sure if it could get the D* channels. So since it can't won't list it as a D HD box. Thanks. Mods can delete thread if they want to.

    Panasonic TU-HDS20

    Will this unit still pick up Directv HDTV signals. It is the Panasonic TU-HDS20 HDTV Digital Receiver. Will it receive the present HD signals from sat or is it only usable for OTA?

    Receiver suggestion

    So their reply is partly correct and partly incorrect. I will need the AM21 w/ the HR34 instead of just running an OTA cable to the HR34.

    Receiver suggestion

    The email about the HR34 talked like it has OTA built in to it. That all I need is to be able to get OTA ant lead to it. BTW they sent me a total of 3 emails. The 1st one didn't answer anything. I told them that. So they replied that the do have ability to record OTA "This is for HD DVR HR21 and...

    Receiver suggestion

    What I needed to know where I live they don't carry the Fox station so would have to record it OTA. I considering adding D* if E* drops AMC. So you just ask for the AM21N tuner to be added at install?
