    A note on Map Master

    New batteries being installed as we speak! Hope I can call on you again when I go mapping! Thanks, Hugh

    A note on Map Master

    Is this hardware and software still available? I have several 922's still sealed in their boxes. Kept as spares and never used.

    Trouble with X4

    Looks like I had an antenna problem. Moved the feed to an old Star Choice dish I had kicking around. Signals and quality have about doubled and hits have worked. My BUD has definitely gotta to be moved as demolishing the barn is not an option! :)

    Trouble with X4

    Thanks TVRPRO and the rest. I think I will look at my antenna as my signal levels seem pretty low compared with what you guys have b4 I bug my provider. My sigs have never come anywhere near 99. Antenna improvement may involve removal of trees and buildings.......

    Trouble with X4

    I have a DSR920, 10 ft. BUD and BSC621 LNBF. I have been subscribed to X4 for the last couple of months. As the sub ran out, I renewed it this morning and have been sending it hits for most of the day. The counter has been incrementing at each hit. Sci-Fi, X4-642 authorization has been on and...

    Need best place to have my GE 920 4DTV repaired.

    I bought a used 920 from this company a few months ago. I would highly recommend them as they not only sold me a good receiver, but were most helpful afterwards.

    H-H Mount And Actuator Arm?

    [ yes theres other stuff on satellites thats digital FTA that a 4dtv receiver can't see. I use a splitter with a DC block to feed my DVB FTa receiver from each LNB on the BUD and then use the DSR920 as an antenna controller. I thought about another BUD but the gardener won't let me get one......

    BSC621 on DSR920

    :) Thanks for this! Hooked it up last night and it works well on H & V, analog and digital, C & Ku. Fitted right in my Chaparral feedhorn which saved me a re-alignment. I did have to juggle a little bit with the 3 connectors. Dummy here thought the Ku was C and vice versa........duh! It broke...

    BSC621 on DSR920

    Just bought a BSC621 for my DSR920 and 10 ft Paraclipse BUD. I'm wondering what LNB's to select in the setup on the receiver? Also, does the BSC621 work with analog C-band? (I still watch some analog channels......) How is H/V switching accomplished on C-band with this LNB and the does the...

    G1 outta sight!

    Not really an option if you work out the geometry! The tower would be very high. I've fooled around with 20 meter beams for ham radio work for years and would not like to try hoising a 10 foot dish. I'm wondering if there are other options for these updates.....

    anyone ever experiment with antennas before?

    400 mhz ducting There is a precision positioning (navigation) system around called Syledis made by the French. It runs in the 400 mhz band. We used it for seismic ops prior to GPS. There are tables with the system that show antenna heights to catch a ducting effect that, apparently has been...

    G1 outta sight!

    After the loss of SciFi channel from G5, I finally converted to 4dtv with a DSR920. Unfortunately just at this time, the updates channel moved to G1.....about 5 deg below my horizon. (I reside at the easternmost point in North America) Short of moving west.....is there any other way that I can...
