    Troubleshooting a Visionsat IV-200

    I've got a Visionsat IV-200 with PVR that has some glitches I'd like to try to iron out. I'm just a novice, so I could use a little help or tips. I'm hoping it is a firmware issue that can be simply fixed, but I've never done that either. Here are my problems: 1) When I set the timer to...

    Fighting Sioux Sports Network

    Is there a time they will "test" the satellite before the first game broadcast, or do we have to wait until game-day to scan it in?

    4:2:0 and 4:2:2 ?

    This might be a stupid question, but is there a receiver available that can receive both 4:2:0 and 4:2:2? I have a Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra, and can only get 4:2:0. I'd like to upgrade to something with PVR, and if possible, I want to be able to get both. On that note, what is a good...

    Scanning Question

    I have Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra and a Primestar dish. I'm mainly interested in finding college football and hockey. My questions are: Doing a "power scan" with this receiver finds transponders first, then scans channels right? It takes so long to doing this to find the transponders...

    4:2:0 vs. 4:2:2 question

    What is the difference between 4:2:0 and 4:2:2? With a Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra and KU band I get 4:2:0. What would I need to get 4:2:2?

    Question Re: Cable Length

    1.2 meter primestar dish with its original LNB. Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra receiver. Tomorrow I'm putting on an Invacom SNH-031 LNB for polarization reasons, but PSB says it should help my signal too I think.

    Question Re: Cable Length

    I have 200 ft between my dish and receiver. Quality is over 70% on nearly all satellites, and 90% or greater on my true south and the sats surrounding it.

    G10r

    Right, but if I store its position in 1.2 mode, does the motor still move automatically when I switch to G10 from say......IA8?

    G10r

    If i change G10 from USALS to 1.2, does the motor still automatically take it to that position?
  19. B

    G10r

    There are a few channels on G10, a cbs, abc, and nbc, that I can't really pickup. The quality meter is constantly spiking about every second, going from 80% to 0, and back and forth. Are these just weak transponders, or do I have pointing problem. I have over 90% quality on my true south...

    O.K. everybody, I need help/ :confused: I got my SG2100 motor, mounted on the mast perfectly level, pointed to what I'm pretty sure true south.

    Primestar Dish on SG2100 ?

    I'll do my best to make an attempt at it. I'm not much more familiar with computers than I am with FTA satellite. I'll try though.

    Primestar Dish on SG2100 ?

    O.K. I got the bracket finished. Like I said: Two 2" x 1/8" aluminum flat irons bolted to the back of the dish. Then I took the bracket off of an old DTV dish, cut the LNB arm off, and turned it upside down, and bolted it to the aluminum flat irons. The sticky part was that I had to take...
