Just went to this one to see what I got. My receiver has that TP at 4159 H 5790 and the Q on it is 69/72%. 4180 V 27500 on that bird is screaming @ 85%! Just saying.................

Yeah, I kinda figured it was something similar to that. I was seated within 8ft of the carnage playing a video game on my computer so it's a wonder that I didn't get lit up. That computer locked up and I had to cut power then reboot and it did come back missing a PCI local network adapter...

As I mentioned in my last post.......I have those wires where I can disconnect them at the plug in installed when storms are around or predicted. Picture a male and female 4 pin plug with one side of it mounted in the Vbox and the other connected to the dish. Maybe I can post a pic if you...

Well, the "smoke" has finally cleared and here are the final results. Parts lost, one 32" TV (not a smart TV), one FTA receiver, one Vbox 2 dish controller, one Gigaspire internet router, one Von Weise reed switch, one 8 port TP Link gigabyte network switch, two gigabit PCI network cards in...

Well, it's been a few years since we got hit. After the last strike I reworked all the outside to inside dish and power connections (they were disconnected with no power on them when the lightning hit this time) and thinking nothing would happen?? About 5:30 EDT yesterday one main lightning...

Thanks Keith. What we watch on that bird is C band and that's about the same info I found but I was wondering if someone else with more experience than me had different info than what I found. Oh well.................. Just saying...................

Found some info that says there is a NEW satellite headed for 127W? Anyone have any more info on when it will go in service? We watch one channel there that I record and play back later. Was using my old S9 receivers but they kept locking up during the recording so I had to start recording...

99W, that's the Caribbean mux location. And JFOK some older receivers have major problems with those channels and have now for a year or more. Neither my S9 nor my Micro HD will play that video. Try changing the TP to 4159 and see if that will work better for ya. Oh, and there's already...

FYI, Adblocker Ultimate is on both Windows and Linux Mint (multiboot) computers running Firefox browsers and ALL my systems DUMP COOKIES and History when I close out my browsers. If I turn off Adblocker everything with TitanTV works OK except I get all that ad crap!! Just...

Yep, mine is doing the exact same thing!

Didn't know exactly where to put this so if it's in the wrong secton, please move it to it's proper place. I've been using TitanTV to keep up with programming schedules for a long time but here recently it has starting horking up every time I open it and it does that on ALL the computers I have...

Oh well, I guess it's manual time set every day for 127w then. :deadhorse2

Yeah well, that time sync sounds good but my old junk doesn't have an internet connection, ie, Micro HDs.... Just saying...............

Added 127W to my satellite list to access Reelz TV but, the time isn't correct on that TP. Anyone know of a TP on that satellite that has the correct time so I won't have to set it manually every time I record there? Thanks....................

True Crime Network on 97w 3906 H 3000 is one of about 3 or 4 channels that I record from most of the time. It has been about a week or more since I recorded anything there and today I went there and it was GONE?? :wtf Fired up another system and checked and it's missing on that system also...

Didn't read everything on this but in case you don't know there is one thing to be aware of where Ku signals are concerned. That WIDE HOLE mesh in that 12ft dish isn't Ku friendly, ie, the later model C/Ku dishes have much smaller mesh in them. Reason I know this is because that 10.5 ft Raydx...

Hummm, in your defense, I just looked and I didn't see a "KU" only section? I just posted mine where I did because it's a "feed" that happens to be on KU.

What actuator do you have and does it have a rubber water seal where the inner and outer tubes come together? On my Von Weise movers I just keep them lubricated with WD40 or some other rust preventive spray on lube about twice a month. I run the actuator out about 18" then spray that inner...

BINGO clucas!!! Thanks a bunch as I did scan in that TP for open channels and it brought back 3 test cards that were ITC and with the correct UTC time setting!! :clapping My Micro HD automatically set the time pretty much as soon as I scanned 3900 in. Just saying...................

Thanks guys. I'll have to check on that AFN color bars one to see if it works. I record some programming on the Caribbean mux and need a transponder on 99w that will set the time on my receivers when I boot them up without having to move the dish to 97w to do that. And in case you were...

Does anyone know of any transponders on 99w Cband that have the correct time on them? Thanks................

Speaking of the VonWeise movers, here's a lead screw nut mod I did on a couple of mine way back in 2010 and I'M STILL USING THEM TODAY! ;) http://motorsportsvillage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=7705

Nope, since I'm on the East coast I ain't gonna be able to lock that one either! Oh well!

Gee, I've still got 139w stored in my dish controllers. Maybe I'll be able to lock something on that.

Had one of those a few years back and it was, well, AN EIGHT FOOTER! Meaning that it's just not big enough and I replaced it with a Unimesh 10 footer. Sold that SAMI to a guy in Charlottesville, Va for cheap that included a receiver and never heard anything from him again?? But, when you're...
