I have the Sathero 200 also, it works really well except on the signals I need it most for. I think I will look into that Sathero 300HD.

I know what you mean buy a dark sky site, I live in the desert with slow internet but unfortunately for me my house still has lots of light pollution, I can see color on a moonless night. I can see a very faint milky way here. My brother has three houses with great conditions, one back in a...

A 90cm dish is awfully small, I played around with a C-band LNB on a 1.2 meter dish and got pretty good signal strength on some channels but it would not be good for most of the stuff up there.

I would like a SATA connector inside the receiver, recording to USB drives is OK but if I were designing the receiver it would have internal storage drive capability.

I see Syed just posted a couple hours ago that they are going to give up on the Ku feeds, said nobody wanted to setup a dish so it wasn't commercially viable. I guess that is why they are blowing out the stock of those HDStar receivers so cheaply. They have the L-band parts available on Amazon.

I know that Outernet shutdown the Ku feed on 113w due to poor sales of the Lighthouse in Latin American, the 97w data feed was out for awhile but it is back up last I checked. I don't know if they intend to drop all Ku band service, if they do the data stream being sent will drop from about 1Gb...

Where did you see they were going switch from Ku to L-band? I thought they were planning to do both. Also you can buy the HDStar USB receiver for your Pi on Amazon for less than $20. The Outernet signal is still up on G19.

Saw the Reddit AMA the other day on the outernet so I decided to start my Outernet Raspberry Pi up again, I see they are sending data faster now. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

I have used my 1.2m dish and TBS6925 to receive the feeds, I really like that Sigma Designs is working on a receiver, there hardware has always been great. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Mine came from New York, it had European style power prongs on the wall wart but adapters are cheap. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Looks like they will hit $100,000 dollars any minute now. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

I posted a link to the indiegogo site on a forum where some very wealthy people hangout, don't know if it will help but it couldn't hurt to get the word out. I might donate later but I have been hit with a ton of unexpected bills this year. I spent a ton of money rescuing 14 dogs so at least of...

If they could get the attention of someone like Bill Gates that donates massive amounts to charity, they could really make something out of this. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Winter where I live in Southern California can be very nice, like last year when we only had about 2 and half weeks worth or it can be long and cold. It can snow here anytime between October and May or it can be warm one day and cold the next. Minimum winter temps here can get as low as 0 but...

I guess I would need full sized head phones, my OTA stations are weak here. Who needs proofreaders?

You can still find those electronics kits online. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=electronic+lab&tag=satell01-20 When you get farther into it you can try SparkFun https://www.sparkfun.com and Adafruit http://www.adafruit.com for more interesting stuff. Posted Via The FREE...

Radio Shack is nothing more than a cellphone store with a weak selection of electronic components where I live, when I lived in Orange County California we had these great electronic surplus stores where you could find all kinds of great stuff. I miss Heathkit more than I will ever miss Radio...

HDhomerun devices work with Macs and also Linux, according to the Silicondust website this software should work on a Mac https://www.elgato.com/en/eyetv/eyetv-3-0. I see the post I was replying to is gone now.

I did expect problems at the start, I just thought I would mention that things seem to be working well now. I tried to leave feedback on their forum but I never got any confirmation emails back when I tried to sign up, I even tried 2 different email accounts. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys...

I had a lot a days with nothing showing up, TVHeadend was showing lots of errors so I gave up for awhile, yesterday I decided to give it another try and I have been receiving lots of content since the restart. The problem must be fixed now, I had error problems even using my 1.2 meter dish so I...

I would recommend a Amiko Mini HD SE and a 90cm dish as a good starting point, for a dish mover I don't use one so I will let someone else recommend a brand. Satellite AV is in California and sells dishes, I bought my Amiko receiver from Fridge FTA for about $100 including shipping...

Well it's still early in the game, I just saw on the Outernet website forum that they were having problems. I updated to the latest Librarian version that was released today but so far nothing new has come through for me. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

So far I have only picked up a total of 11 wikipedia pages, I wonder if the PCTV 461e is the problem. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

I got my USB tuner today and set this up, so far it has been like you said very low data rates but I have picked up a wikipedia page. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!
