i recently added a motorized 31 inch ku dish to my dish collection and am hitting from 72 deg to 129 and noticed something, on t6 dr gene scott tp at times i get 99 pct quality and at others as low as 58 pct. even going east and west doesnt help any. is it normal for some channels or...

i tried alot to fix it, well i have recently played a bit by attaching lnbs to the arms of the bud for ku band. i will try to get up to 12 lnbs attached hitting sats and use 3 disecq switches. i have 3 lines ran into my bedroom already. i would love to get 87 thru 95 and 101 thru 105, and...

yeah i get a laugh every now and then at my 8 ft and my 40 inch primestar dish, but my response is i bet i get 10* the channels you do! plus more international channels and interesting channels.

well i went out to the dish and had my son pushing west, well the dish was moving small increments, but still said act error, i tried lifting up on the dish but it still wouldnt lock in. is there a certain way to pick or lift it up. i was gonna use my birdog to set up a c/ku and dss bud!

it just hit me! last week the last time i used the dish i had my box on program mode. on the back of my toshiba there is a switch for reg mode and program mode, i had it on program mode and wash using my fta box signal meter to get the best possible alignment. i didnt switch back over to reg...

well that is still better than a aad cable! i would hate to have to rerun 100 total feet of ribbon again since 30 ft is on the house and 70 ft burried! i will try first to set it back by myself,then if i cant i will get my boys to help me. i have to re align it anyways since i bought a birdog.

no sir, the maybe my dog could have chewed the remote or something. it is locked up now, usually when i go too far east i can push west and it will go right back west! at least it isnt the wires out!

weird. i havent used the btd since thursday. went outside and it was aimed far east, actually to the limit, but the dish has been on g3 since thursday, now at about 55 deg! the box even had g3 labeled as the current satellite! so when i get home i will try to set it back up. it might just...

will have to check it later, but got an error for actuator, i check and messed with the back of the box wires and still no fix. bad thing is i have 70 ft buried in the ground! most likely a cut cable because the actuator isnt that old. maybe the dog ate the wire!

yes sir, and i programmed 64 sats on it, every sat 45 deg to 148 for both ku and c band, and still was able to fit in three special sats which i didnt know were even up there, one is amc 2 test, one a gal 10 test, and one sky at 101 test sat, maybe i will try to check those out. every dish...

hey guys, i just bought a birddog 3.0 that has been used for only 3 weeks for only 235.00. the guy quit direct tv and needed quick cash

i will have to get some picks up, the wife carries the camera with here everyday. i have picked up dishes since i am doing satellite service now. i currently have the following. 8 ft unimesh with 24 inch superjack...

i have expressed interest in my local craigslist about looking for a birddog sat meter and last night a direct tv guy called and said he has been there a month and they gave him a brand new birddog and took 500 out of his checks to pay for it! anyways it must be the new 3.0 to cost that much...

hello guys. my local fta supplier just got a shipment of digiwave fta receivers and sells them to me for 99.99. have any of you used one? why do you think they are so cheap? i give him 140.00 for every pansat 2700 that i buy...

analog is still cool! i still find those feeds with no one around for an hour! i actually caught a four hr feed of someones house and yard and kept flipping back to it til finally the screen went off! have no idea what that was all about and also caught a mexican police chase with exchanged...

goodmorning guys! i have had a california amp feedhorn for months now and am curious about connecting it and getting my ku off the big dish. i am a bit new to connecting the servo wires to the polarator. the guy who had the dish last looked like he just took the wires and...

will try to get one for you guys to see. it is not put together at the moment, but the parts are here and huge! i would say dish and mount weigh at least 300 together, it has a strange mount piece for it. also a mount piece with two slots about 5 inches away from each other i guess for the...

hi guys! ran into a guy on craigslist that had a 6 ft prime focus commercial dish and said his wife wouldnt let him keep it! he wants to get into fta and traded the 6 ft focus to me for a 36 inch dish. this thing is like 3 inches thick and has a huge mount that must weight 200 pounds with...

yeah i watch dr scott at times too. never know what you will hear on that channel. i like a few shows on it like simpsons,springer,and king of the hill too, but if you ever catch t6 in the morning you will find lots of feeds and some crazy stuff! also nasa feeds and a few games too,as well as...

i still flip through the analog sats everyday and catch tons of feeds, i am curious if any or many of you still watch analog feeds? i have noted every channel i have seen feeds on and have noted 105 ch or tps analog that still have occasional feeds, so still a bunch up there analog to view.

t6 at 93 degrees for analog! t6 is a great sat for analog feeds and pretty fair for dvb. if i just had a fta box and no analog i would pick amc 1, gotta love ion free channels! so i would say t6 or galaxy 26 as most call it.

hey guys! i bought a digisat 3 lcd yesterday for 40 bucks. i was wondering if any of you have ever used this one before. it is battery operated which is great because i was just using a squacker that has to use juice from the receiver. i am guessing i can use this for c...

well you would need a high freq splitter to have the cables ran then a different receiver for each room, the only problem will be that you have to have the receivers watching the same satellite and also i believe the same polarity. only...

i had a guy offer me a fiberglass 8 or 9 ft dish and a receiver called a wilson microwave receiver sm 1000 or something and a antanna position box, a remote even and told me just come pick it up? anyone ever heard of this receiver?
