    dtx9900 repair

    this model uses 3.3v and 5v,there are some brands that just use 12v.There is a video on youtube showing a guy converting his brand to an external 12v for blackout use or mobile use. The dx9900 does run hot,I left the lid off.

    dtx9900 repair

    my digitalstream dtx9900 ota converter bit the dust,no output no leds on. After unplugging for a while and plugging back in,the green led blinks. Looking at the power supply,c209 was bloated so I replaced it and got it going again. The original was a 330uf 16v,replaced it with a 220ufd 35v

    WSAH

    I just checked and I get no signal at all now. I taped a show this a.m. and the channel was fine. Did they go kaput or what?

    WSAH

    the online one tells you the actual name of the individual episodes every day,and wsah just shows a few hours of rtv and metv per day,not the full daily lineup.75% of the programming is the shop at home (wSAH) junk.Even the epg on the ota box itself isn't accurate most of the time.

    is there any online guide for that station that shows the sub channel? I found the MeTv guide for wsah but not for rtv *found it myself http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCSGrid.do?sgt=list&fromTimeInMillis=1338955200000&stnNum=74322

    still rtv,and the other sub channel is Me Tv. The problem is the converter epg doesn't match what is actually on/going to be on. I have to check the website to be sure.Clock on the converter is the correct time. WSAH (formerly WBPT) TV Schedule | LocateTV

    OTA antenna for the attic!

    If it's a common voltage,you might be able to adapt one from a different source. I have an inline amp that is dead,but I am hanging onto it just in case I can use the power supply inserter for something else.

    OTA antenna for the attic!

    I assume it came with a power supply,so if you find one used make sure that is included.

    I usually watch the saint 10pm on rtv 83w but I had to tape another program during that time slot.I started playing with ota and found rtv on WSAH but it was running the credits so too late to watch.I think it was a slightly different programming than the national lineup during the day.

    OTA antenna for the attic!

    oceanstate joblot has a 40 incher I put in the attic on a rotor. That is about the biggest I can use with the rotor. In the old days rule of thumb was 1 inch per mile,but inside the attic I get about 1/2 that range.
