    Can you paint a 1.2m plastic dish?

    I posted this over in the DirecTV forum, but have received no hits. I have a homeowner requesting that we paint their dish, but it is plastic, and I am unsure if it can be painted or what type of paint would work. It is the 1.2m triple lnb dish (99,101,103) that is used in Hawaii and Alaska to...

    Converting DirecTv to FTA

    The RCA DRD430/431 series runs an Sti5518 chipset just like the Pansat 2500. So with a simple JTAG you can convert it.

    Settings For DishPro LNBF

    Set LO to 11250. Setup 119 on Diseqc 1 and 110 on Diseqc 2. Take all of your even transponders (2, 4, 6 etc) (H) and subtract them from 25600. The sum of that will be your new (V) transponder. For example 12239 H (Tp2) is standard freq 13361 V (Tp2) is DishPro Freq

    Help on Upgrade?

    I couldnt give you an honest answer because I dont own either. Since I've purchased the Dreambox I haven't even looked at purchasing another STB. Maybe ask Shawn95GT he just did a review on the 6000.

    Newbie to FTA and this forum

    1) Thats fine. 2) Yep. 3) LNB Type would be Universal 2. LO would be 10750. 22khz off, Diseqc port would be whichever your linear lnb is plugged into.

    Adding sat and tp

    Easiest way is via Channel Master. But seriously why not use the factory sat file and then delete what you dont need in OSD Edit or Channel Master and go from there? If you need a sat file let me know and I'll get one over to you.

    New Viewsat manual available

    They have a new factory firmware labeled v2067 but so far I haven't found a difference. They haven't updated their website to reflect the new update so if you'd like I can email it to you. I pulled it off a brand new Platinum I purchased 2 weeks ago.

    Switch Recommendation

    As far as a "budget" switch goes I really like Chieta. You cant beat it for the price you pay. If you want a quality switch check out Spaun but be prepared to pay big bucks for it.

    Viewsat's New Policy

    Its price fixing at its worst. But if I am reading this right if I have a warranty issue I will need to submit proof of purchase. And if that receipt shows I paid less than their MSP my warranty claim will be denied and it will be like I purchased from the grey market. How is this good for the...

    DiSEqC options with Dish Pro 500 and 2 other dishes.

    Why not just use a Diseqc switch? Pick up a 4x1 switch for a few bucks and just assign the ports in your box. No need for that 22khz switch.
