    bsc-621 ib new 10 footer

    many seem to dis the 621 LNBF, I have (well had one, the H180 motor broke in half and failed... ) on my 6 foot prime focus dish. It worked OK for both C and Ku. I peaked for Ku and let C band end up where it did. One thing, if you're using DSR920 or 922 is set the Ku to "rotated 90...

    Could use some advise from the experts!

    From a guy that did the 120cm mini-bud dish with C/Ku lnb, I moved up to a 6 foot dish with H180 motor. BIG improvement. Although the 4 footer worked, I'm having much more sucess with the 6 foot dish. Things just work so much better. Less interference from sats 2 degrees over (although...

    dsr-922 channel scan

    There are no maps available from Ku band for 92x receivers, only from 2 or 3 C band sats. The last I knew, you can get an activation hit from X4 on one or two channels from X4 - either channel 194 or 255

    High Definition Channels

    4DTV DSR-920 Problems

    You can do mail order for one with solder tabs (mouser or digikey), or you can get one at radio shack which looks like a AA battery. You'll need their black AA holder since it doesnt have solder tabs. Thats what I did. Solder in the wires from the empty holder, snap in new battery then...

    4dtv dsr920 setup

    so essentially flipping the wires around - from pulse to ground - solved your problem?

    analog feeds still going strong.

    I'd guess costs. They aren't doing too well since the old guy died. THere was some blather about C band being dead technology.

    analog feeds still going strong.

    Ms. Scott announced last month (August 07) that she is bound and determined to "move into the digital age" and with that - abandon C band transmissions, concentrate on keeping the Ku going. No timeframe was mentioned.

    4dtv dsr920 setup

    I had to reverse the pulse wires on my H180 motor's position sensor in order for it to register on the 920's receiver. Try that.

    DSR922 channel count variation

    I was successful on G5/12 Got the DCii to lock by manual tune. Pulled the plug, sat for 10 secs, then back in. Whent back in for manual tune, go the lock and watching the channel count. My count actually dropped a bit (prob due to PBS changes) its at 4746 at this point (about 5...

    DSR922 channel count variation

    The problem is I cant seem to lock on anything DCII from tp 1 to 24. I'm not sure on map reset if any of the 100's type channels will be there. Lets say: I find transponder on DCii channel on G5 in the 100's. Note the transponder characterictics on 6 7 7 8. Pull the plug. Plug back...

    DSR922 channel count variation

    G1 doesnt come in good enough for me, I dont pay for the guide anyway so I've never cared too much for access to Tp3. I got the maps last time from GB/tp24, but that is not available to me right now (need to reposiiton dish) I get G5 real well, DC lock on a bunch of stuff. Are the maps...

    4DTV 920 Mapping

    seems like a lot of expense to consider... $25 to send one way, $25 back. And the expense to repair, what is it $80? You're looking at $130 as it is. You can buy a replacement receiver for that much. Find a ham radio guy, ask around. The job isn't that bad. If you're even considering...

    4DTV 920 Mapping
