Ok I just got a brand new DSR 905 receiver. Hooked it up to my dish, and moved it over to G1-3. I switched to analogue and bang, the green light popped on. after about 30 minutes I checked back it had loaded al the additional satellites. When I looked at the channels on G1 several...

Now that everything has gone digital, is it possible to use a dsr 905 as a stand alone unit to subscribe to programing? I have an old receiver that i use to move my dish. Do i have to have a VCII to subscribe?

Does anyone know what valid id numbers are for programable dsr 905 receivers are? The last thing i want to do is buy a boat anchor. I read that for dsr 922 and 920 an id running from 00-12F2-0012F5 or beginning with 001463 are needed. Does the same hold true for the 905?

I am using a 7 1/2 half foot solid right now on both c/ku and doing pretty great on sats closest to my true south and good on all others. I got it from a guy getting ready to cut it up with a chain saw to get it out of the yard. So as others stated depends on mesh and you never know for sure...

Hi guys, Just put a geo sat pro c/ku lnbf on my 7 1/2 foot dish and using my pansat 3500 and have 2 questions. 1. channels are coming in great, BUT, all polarities are opposites. H channels are only coming in V ect. Do i just need to flip my lnbf over? Will that solve the problem. It...

ok just for clarification one more time. When i look down the throat of the feedhorn, the little antenna should be angled or slanted on a line that would connect 4 and 10 on the clock face? sorry but i am a little thick.

Thanks guys i think mine maybe on the 7 and 2 position

Can you explain the 4:30 position?

I got started on my big dish and have had good success so far. I think i have a servo problem. I can hear it clicking as if it is turning the rotor but it only lets me get either vertical or horozontal channels. like on G-3 I can get Faith TV but none of the RTN's. Is it possible that...

Ok guys here's the question. What has been the most helpful trick, advice, or shortcut you learned about setting up a Big Dish for c-band and ku band? Here's the backstory some one has given me an 8 foot solid (pictures are coming) and I just purchased a cal-amp c/ku feedhorn from e-bay...

one quick question does the 410 have a battery you have to worry about like the 920 or 922? I had someone give me a 920 a few years ago and i used it till my son unplugged it. Battery was shot. still have it but now it is more or less a boat anchor. lol.

I Knew i could count on your guys for an honest review of the service. gonna work on it over the summer. thanks to all who responded.

Can I run a quick survey? For you guys using DSR 410 on W5 and what is your feeling about the service? I was give an 8 foot solid dish and am thinking about using it as a stationary dish up and going for it. Are you guys pleased? Is it worth it? What do you think? thanks.

I was on the skyvision sight and it has been changed, has the 410 experiment been dropped altogether? I know HITS is changing its home service or dropping it. Is that going to be the effect on Sky's offering? anyone got the official word?

I am going for it! Ordered it yesterday. Programming Center offers pick 10 packages, and the digital packages offered by skyvision looks good. The other 2 providers place the channels i want in their upper tiers and cost an arm and a leg. (bbc america and fox soccer channel.) I was watching x4...

As always thanks guys.

Hi guys, My son trying to be helpful unpluged my 920 and I lost all my channel maps. The battery was dead. The battery was replaced by a friend and now I have found out that it will no longer do digital. Any way to revive this receiver? Can the mother board be reauthorized or...

just an update, still enjoying x-4 on my ku only set up. one problem. son came home from college and trying to set up his x box unpluged my 920 and pluged it back in ! I took it well. I didn;t kill him. Now I still have all the channels I subscribe to coming in but no names of channels. It...

Hello airgator96, You read it right. I started out with a ku only system and a pansat 3500, someone gave me an old fiberglass offset dish about a 6 or 7 footer. problem was no feedhorns only c-band. someone else gave me a 920 receiver and with the inspiration here i removed the c-band dish...

watching ku on x4 I was so inspired by you guys that I pulled out an old primestar dish and lnb (with one connection for v one for h) and put it up in the back yard. Low and behold with a 920 someone gave me I now have subscribed to the ku only digital package. I love it! I had cut the...

about the voom box, what type of mods need to be made to pick up f2air 4dtv?

I have a BUD, a 920 receiver 4dtv capeable only a c-band lnb on my bud. Do i have to have a ku lnb to map the ku side? I have an old primestar dish and lnb laying around and was going to try x-4. Will my maps be ok to subscribe?

Someone just gave me a 4dtv 920 receiver. It works great. Got on sat, got it to download channel lists, things looking good. But, someway the east west limit are set the same or within a couple of numbers of one another. I have tried the "set limit" options but it won't let me change the...

Ok guys a little help here. I was given a 6 foot solid offset dish, complete with a c-band feedhorn. I think it is the original. I have had no problem picking up mpeg free 2 air signals on the c-band sats with my pansat 3500 sd. I cannot find a feedhorn that will do both c and ku for this...

the pansat 3500 sd will control polarity on the big dish but is not able to move the dish itself. I move my dish with an old toshiba analogue receiver. and the pansat 3500 works fine with c-band.
