    Help with motorized dish elevation

    I set the elevation on my motor to the correct latitude, then put the receiver on a hot TP, then aimed the dish while watching the signal bar. It follows the arc pretty good.

    Done with multiple receivers, but want 4:2:2 so which Azbox to get?

    The thing I think about is if it's 4:2:2 I am covered, and if it's not, I am still covered, without using multiple receivers. Anyone know of a reputable dealer?

    Done with multiple receivers, but want 4:2:2 so which Azbox to get?

    I am done screwing around with my Traxis box scanning for feeds, then having to figure out if they are 4:2:2 or what then if they are, pulling out the PC with either the skystar2 card of the DVB World usb box. So, I think I want to get an Azbox. I am pretty sure they do 4:2:2 and maybe blind...

    Need a new motor quick, where to shop?

    Spoke with Hal at galaxy marketing, which I am assuming is essentially WS International and they cannot supply a motor with the larger tube right now, but was hoping to get one by the weekend. Anywhere else I should look?

    1.2 Meter dish info needed

    So I am wanting to get back going with FTA since my old motor died on my DTN dish and was thinking about getting a 1.2 meter dish. I know the shipping cost is going to kill me. Several questions: 1. Is there any FTA dealers that would have a dish this size near NE Kansas? 2. What is...

    Getting paid for a job, thinking upgrades...

    Looking at the galaxy marketing site with the 90cm WS9036 dish package. Thinking about going with the one for $5 more that adds a cband lnbf since I already have a couple of ku universal lnbs here. You guys think it's worth trying any cband stuff with this dish??

    Getting paid for a job, thinking upgrades...

    My dish it either a 72 or 75 cm, cannot remember. I have a couple of universal lnb that I am OK with, but if there is a package of motor and dish that includes a lnb for cheap, I would look at that. Not sure if I have enough height on my pole for a 1.2 meter dish, thinking a 90 would be...

    Getting paid for a job, thinking upgrades...

    So I am getting my year end pay for a job I do and I am thinking upgrades, or at least replacing my dead motor. Almost $500 to spend, so I know I will get a new motor. Thinking of getting a larger dish with motor combo while I am at it. I have a traxis 3500, DVB World usb box, Skystar 2 PCI...

    Anyway to fix a dead motor??

    I have taken it apart and it look like the coax connectors are soldered onto the board still pretty well. What are the relays?? This motor hasn't gotten much use, I would go a month without using it, but wanted to get it running back for a couple of football games and basketball season. I...

    Anyway to fix a dead motor??

    I brought it in to the receiver, with different cable, but same thing. Might try the board route. 1ADAM12: How much to repair?

    Anyway to fix a dead motor??

    I have a SG2100 that will not respond to anything. I tried resetting it, but the led doesn't even light up any more, nor does it respond to pushing both buttons when powering on the FTA box. Any chance of fixing this thing??

    Studdering with nextorm DVB World software

    When watching something like a game for a period of time using the Nextorm DVBWorld software, the picture starts studdering. If I stop it, then restart that channel, it will be fine for a while. Anyone else seen this with their software? I tried DVBDream, but it wouldn't play the HD feed I...

    DVB World and a Macbook

    Well, maybe this device will not work.... It is labeled as Nextorm, and windows recognizes it as a DVB-s2101 I always assumed they were the same.... I cannot get the software to see it when I use parallels. I can get the driver installed, but the software doesn't seem to see it.

    DVB World and a Macbook

    Anyone using a DVB World USB box with a Mac? I have tried it, mainly because hauling the computer out for 4:2:2 feeds is a pain, but I cannot get iTele to show any tuners. I followed the directions, and it says Plus the device, assuming they mean Plug in the device.... Any suggestions?

    2/24/08 Looking for FTA Card...

    Forget blind scan with a card. The Skystar 2.3 card will do it kinda, but not reliable enough for me. I use the DVB World USB box and like it pretty well.

    need help setting up my sg2100 motor

    What I did was point the motor due south, then set the elevation on the motor. Got the receiver out to the dish with a small TV then moved the dish until I got signal on a strong transponder on that 97 satellite. I used USALS and I get every satellite with good quality.
