I just got a qs1080 from ebay and the unit is flashing "init" on the LED with a small little red LED flashing on the bottom Any ideas ?

Thanks photoman... did not notice the P ... and If I am can be sure that the updates that do not show up on the second page are always DTV, then I am fine with it... I dont need those updates anyways...

Does anyone know why the front page of lyngsat with all the NA birds shows updates to the 3C bird, but you can not ever find what the change was when you click into the detailed TP page ? NOTE: all other birds on lyngsat seem to be fine...

Big question... can a previously subbed starchoice receiver get "other" DCII free to air channels ? or only these ones ? and... would a 4DTV receiver like a 922 get them ? I think so - right ?

I didnt know that DN did turbo - until i read more... it all comes together finally ;) CS8100 is DVB-S2 8PSK out of the box, which will get most of the current FTA channels out there (not sure about feeds)... and DN - which has a few FTA channels, uses turbo 8PSK which the CS8100 will NOT get...

I do not see how the CS8100 does 8PSK... it does look like it does the DVB-S2 MPEG4 , but only using QPSK ? is this right ? also - some articles are reading (e.g. TS in france experiment with 8PSK in 2003)... that there is a thing called turbo 8psk ? is that just a fancy name for 8psk ? or do...

From what I read - there is no such thing as DVB-S2 MPEG 2 HD or SD ?

So - I get a Quali-TV + CS8100 with 8PSK card and I can do 4:2:2 DVB-S SD or HD MPEG 2 (Quali-TV) 4:2:0 DVB-S SD or HD MPEG 2 (Quali-TV) 4:2:0 DVB-S SD or HD (MPEG 2 and MPEG4) (CS8100) 4:2:0 DVB-S2 SD or HD (MPEG2 and MPEG4) (CS8100) But I can not do... 4:2:2 DVB-S2 M4/M2 or 4:2:2...

Trying to figure out what is what... DVB-S2 and DVB-S 4:2:2 and 4:2:0 QPSK and 8PSK SD and HD What I need - which of these go together and which dont ? if took all combination of the above I would have 2^4 or 16 combinations In other words is there 4:2:2 , DVB-s, HD, QPSK signals ...

does this box do QPSK/MPEG4 SD and HD ? Does it have build in Dolby decoding ? to how many audio outputs ? The 4:2:2 is cool... is there somewhere you can order it in NA ?

excellent - makes sense... and she did mention about the affiliates... so that makes sense too thanks very much... PS> I think my friend watched the KU uplink channel, because that was how I caught on... he watches G25 for its foreign content and liked AMGTV when it was there

still dont know why KU is more money than C band for these providers. AMGTV seems to be saying that they can not afford the KU band prices... and by the looks of how much they have moved over the last year... started in KU, then to a few C band TPS, it looks like they are always bargaining for...

Was wondering if anyone knew why KU band was so much more expensive than C Band for these providers... got this email from AMGTV... My friend has a KU G25 setup and lost this channel - asked me to research it for him ------------------> Thank you for writing to AMGTV and for letting us...

thanks for the info... still think someone should be able to post an average speed for B/S based on a fixed day and sat with some high number of Tp... people just say fast and faster... what is faster... Also - no comment on the double pickup when you do a second scan :(

Looking for the best STB with the fastest blind scan possible... how long does a typical 25 TP satellite take to blind scan... would really like 10 second type of single satellite V + H scan times... but realize that may not be possible... also want to avoid the STB from locking in on a TP...

excellent reference... thanks... have to measure mine - but I think .250 inches is really big holes for what I expect to measure...

SO I am hoping you are suggesting the whole pencil, because my mesh has holes that do not allow the whole pencil - but I can slip the lead into the hole just fine... so its just the lead part... thats a pretty small hole one would have to have...

There seems to be a combo C/KU band LNB that one could buy and have both your C and KU band from one dish (currently I have two dishes)... Since my C band dish is 8 foot mesh, will the KU stuff work OK with that ? someone told me that the dish should be solid for KU... I was not sure if it was...

Just bought a sonic voom AC3 headset kit.. They are available at some Fry's stores... but they are no longer being built... the company that made them is out of business... one quick note: they come with the RCA or optical input and have two ouputs... I use one for the TV and the other for...

does the BSC621-2 C/Ku LNBF get both circular and linear types of signals ? I can not seem to find good data on it ? Does C band have linear and circular like the K band birds ? The K birds also require two different LO freq. for different birds... does this LNB give you that flexibility ?

Thanks very much for the info. Will start to blind scan those birds for some interesting feeds.

Can you tell me what birds I would scan for NFL and/or NHL sports ? I will keep blind scanning them. Is there any movies that come though temp feeds ?

Do network feeds always keep the carrier up or do you have to blind scan day to day to pick up new ones ? It seems to me that you have to keep doing blind scans often to find more ones... I guess thats OK - its all fun - but taking someone's channel file may be easier

Is there anyway to get a list of network feed channels that are used often ( or even not so often). The lyngsat data is all entered into my recvr but shows very little. I am thinking that there are more channels to be had in this area. Is it legal to share this data amoungst friends ?

I always had issues with AMC 3 being out in California with trees, but I recently moved stuff around and now found AMC all brightly lit up. A fresh scan of ACM3 found PBS channels - but - with no sound. I look at lyngsat and they are missing the audio numbers ? Anyone help with PBS station's...
