    OTHER Basic DVB-S/S2 Receiver

    OK; the chip matters; this thread should matter. If I was to choose to only make one chip for the US market; I think it would be an ATSC box; built since the word/world/conv. in the US; and built into EVERY HDTV. IN SATELLITE TV, that word is taken out in every Country except the USA. This makes...

    OTHER TBS 5925 Sensitivity

    So, in my analysis is you can get the PCI card style (E or 16PCI; or dvb-s2 8psk is non-network Ectended; and all of their cards are the smaller versions of a DVB-S LNBf typed tuner; i do not plug them into lnb's; and have the record in question theory? Brian has the newer PC card for Extended...

    OTHER TBS 5925 Sensitivity

    Now, I would recommend Commercial typed equipment; Broadcaster's use; to know why it is built better; but today why it works better (they have had the 50-100 for quite a while) let alone 1 gig. Manufacturing quality is what I noticed the most; not that the Consumer products do not have any...

    OTHER TBS 5925 Sensitivity

    As i can understand you; you have these "things"; i need to know exactly what "things" you have and everything you have hooked up before the question can be addressed. You mentioned your 7.5 dish; -> lets start there; i just fixed up an old channel master 10 foot that was so warped ; missin' a...

    Weak signal with PBS on MicroHD

    microHD does have most longer term dvb-s2 receptive problems; one being at PBS is all you need to know what receiver they have chosen for their studio's broadcasters however may be the correct comparison. microHD "wears out" just like any other STB over time. It starts needing new abilities and...

    GeoSat Pro HDVR1200, NO CC!!

    The set-top box hdvr1200 does not pass the directly out of the box by default. If you scan a channel; however; of any CC via FTA signal that is supporting its signal with CC then it is passed onto the tv via hdmi cable is microHD. ANY FILE that this codec is read by the available tuner to...

    microHD DiSEqC 1.1 menu ??

    They have all answered your question? 1.1 is just " backwards " compatible with 1.2; which counts above " 4 " (memorizable). The way to program 8 uses 22 Khz. off the ends, not inside, truly, however the microHD was a little late in being designed, so it has it's compatibility (difference) by...

    Still learning - suggestions please.

    In the beginning of FTA; these settings were all a satellite dish has that is needed for "a satellite receiver" to perform "picture" duties. Today, with complexity and conventions other than "basic" located at the dish; all the manufacturers of Satellite Equipment want "their easy" button to be...

    Still learning - suggestions please.

    It is an Am radio today, but it has been put on a Doctors prescription and the cure was to put it on steroids! It really is called ddr3 for a reason! using 2-dim tries a screen; and axtually shows the hole in comparison to 3-dim and 4-dim technolgies. Mathmativs sends to the itemized digital...

    GeoSat MicroHD, no hdmi ouput

    Mine does npt work well in close to heat (like good stereo or hdtv). It is bad in direct sunlight outside also late summer; i have abused mine to no end and it does not take heat well! And you have that problem, like close cabinetry and multi-items in such, which will cause my microHD to stop...

    OTHER Which is Best

    USALS has already calculated the perfect arc the dish must move in. All the dish must do is move through the arc using the entry of a location on earth. 1.2 requires each location of each satellite to be entered. And yes, they both still work when the dish is or is not perfect; they just don't...

    OTHER Which is Best

    USALS works best; because it does all the moving for you when you program (and you do not program a satellite position; it knows with math). DISEq 1.2 requires you to number your satellites position, and move to each before programming or saving them. Also, if your dish is out of alignment...

    Signal Strength vs Signal Quality

    Hold on a second; i m lost. EX: Odd and even number expresses a 2 dim; an odd number; an even; and another even will express a 3 dim number; but to express a 4 dimensional number (with its limits) which is satellite signals; how do they calculate a picture? Time is a number; odd or even; much of...

    GEOSATpro What do I need to get C-Band on the microHD?

    Just tell the wife u r putting in a new patio and the table and chairs came with the big dish that is a "sunshade"

    GEOSATpro Used microhd for $50 on CL.. why so cheap?

    I would add, the retail price is more than twice the asking, she needed the money more than the stb. It is cute though, and some of the newer designed "media" boxes mimic many parts of the designed use abilities. Like any to TV box, it is fully supported except one feature, it does not have a...

    What New Features are in Firmware? Revert to Previous Version?

    So, the question is; does this mean that we have to live with the newest ver. of software; or not; we have a second. If we revert back to earlier, what do we gain and lose?

    Need help with finding CCTV-4 on microHD

    When moving dish; set frequency at 11780 H 20760 3/4 (make sure you aim dish when you have this showing on your display); so that your quality meter on your receiver will tell you if you've hit 95W instead of 97W.

    Olympics Feed Freezing The Micro

    Would this be a use of transponder to play with us because of the power required for a Satellite C Band system when the TP is next to the same polarity at 4 degree spacing/ and the dish is receiving from both satellites? If it is KU; supposedly each TP has the same power factor applied as a...

    DVB-S2 WOW!

    If you ever find one; they made a 4.5 foot satellite dish that unfolds like an umbrella! It was called a "Toki" and had fine mesh as it's reflector, which folded into the size of an umbrella made for your deck! AND IT WORKS FOR C BAND! Cost: $850 new! And they of course have the "bubble"; one...

    Low SR Channels

    Dish, LNBf, receiver I like to manually input my known transponders as the 1st transponder on my lists. That way it shows immediately when scanning for channels. These channels go at the start of my scanning because they are always there, 100% of the time. After I know the satellite dish is...

    Setup/USALS Issue?

    A Motor at the dish must be re-set for zero every time a new receiver is hooked to it; otherwise the new stb (microHD) will not know where it is positioning too; i.e. it only knows what it is told! If the microHD receiver is told to go to zero; and it does; then it knows zero now too; and can...

    microHD is locking up!

    Remove from non-working enviroment Take it out of the cabinet it is in and hook it up to the satellite dish you know is working just fine without any switches; directly to the dish lnbf, without any other satellite dish hooked to the switch; and see if it is working then!?
