They are: Technotrend S2-1600 and Geniatech Digistar-2HD, they can be installed and the software is already in the unit. What is nice about...

    Quick question about my True South

    OSU1991, I try and do that in the next couple of days. what I did was modify a Direct Tv dish, a old one that has a lot thicker and stronger steel. I took that mount off the dish and cut the lnbf holder off. I used two thick pieces of aluminum strips to mount to the dish and the Direct Tv mount...

    Question about wildfeeds & equipment

    I just found one of my receivers I bought new 12 yrs ago. I wonder if it would be of any use, it is like new condition. It is a Uniden President PS-650XL, I used it to pick up C and Ku bands at a fitness center I owned. I guess it still works, I have had it boxed up and in storage for 10 yrs and...

    Question about wildfeeds & equipment

    I have a CaptiveWorks 4000HD and a CW700. I need to know if the 700 with blind scan will receive the wildfeed signals? I know I need to install a card into the 4000HD for it to work with DVBS-2. I have a 90M Channel master dish with a 0.2db universal LNBF and will have the motor for it tomorrow...

    What should I use?

    It looks like it can when you install a card in the receiver. Here is one of the two they recommend for the CW 4000HD receiver. http://www.geniatech.com/pa/digistar2.asp the other one is a Technotrend S2-1600. I am leaning more to the Digistar 2HD.

    What should I use?

    I made my own mount today from a picture I found. Now after reading some info. on motor setup it says to set a dish elevation, I didn't make an adjustment for that so I will need to add it I guess. I downloaded a picture and saved it but, lost the URL. I will try and find it and post it on here...

    What should I use?

    I have several lnbfs that I could try, one is a linear universal 0.2db. I went ahead and bought the QPH-31 for $45. I think it might be easier to find satellites if I have both the circular and linear on the same lnb when doing the setup. I hope to get this operational next Wednesday. I think I...

    What should I use?

    Hello everyone, hope you had a great day. I have a Channel Master dish mold 90M-1 and I am getting ready to order a motor for it. I am wanting to get as many channels as possible on this dish, so would a INVACOM QPH-31 be the best LNBF for this setup? I also looked into the mini bud setup but...
