Nope! same results with box and remote

Thanks KE!! I think i can eliminate the actuator! I have a new bottom half of the actuator that i swaped out and still the ER2! so its either the wireing or the vbox.I do have another vbox to try! Working kinda funny at times but worked enough to see if its the box or wireing.

thanks Fat ! dont have bulbs but do have voltmeters.! im guessing its output is 12 dc! If so maybe i can use some 12v dc device instead of the bulbs

Having the same problem here! Is this a common problem with these boxes??

Hello! haven't posted in a while put im still here.At first i thought it was just my actuator freezing up again but not the case this time.Disconnected the motorized section from the main shaft to see if the shaft was jammed but my vbox still wont work.When i first power it up it comes on...

It scans in with my solomend (s9) but cant get any lock with my AZbox ultra

After around 4 years since I put up my sadoun 6 footer! Its still going strong without any alignments in a while.

I have very good results using a dmx741 c/ku LNB on my 6 footer.The KU is just about as good as my 3 footer ku setup. Some here have had not so good results with using a c/ku combo Lnb though.

My V box will also loose or gain a few counts now and then. Most of the time just moving the dish to the next Position number on the v box and back again will fix the problem.

With that kind of distance have you figured out how to do the dish/satellite alignment job using the motor set up?

Had alittle free time today and checked out my ku on my 6 ftr! Its working again.Dont know why but ill keep an eye on it.

Looks like a nice BUD!Dosnt look like that much work will be needed.Thats a good reliable actuator on the dish!Looks like a old type LNB which uses servos so i would replace that with a new c-band LNB or a c/ku band combo like a 741 if you want to use both bands.Dont know what kind of receiver...

bummer!!:( no way ill be able to sell the idea of a larger dish to my wife.

These newer TPs that RTV now uses are a hard catch with a 6 footer.I wish they kept the old ones that i got pretty well.

i havent gotten the 4000 mux yet (just tried) and i did get the 3920 briefly a few weeks ago but have since lost it with my 6 ftr.my ku part on my 6ftr gave out a few weeks ago so when i fix the 741 lnb or replace it later in the spring i well tweek the dish also hoping to get just enough extra...

This was the 2nd package that i got from sadoun!The first was a KU system that i put on my garage roof.I really like the quallity of both systems! after 4 years now no rust at all except on a bolt or two.Im really glad i made it easy to work on! The KU on my 741 LMB has recently failed and a...

Here you go!

Mounted on a 3" pole three ft high on my deck.Close to the ground to make it easy to clean and make any repairs or adjustments.

Thank you scott for the offer!My parents live close to you but i live in higganum ct.I wont be looking at fixing the problem for a few weeks yet! As you know winter seems to be sticking around for a little while yet.Been wanting to get a chance to meet you but so far no connection.Thanks again...

I'm also thinking that the 22k switch in the lmb isn't working.When i confirm this i will order another 741 and see if i can fix the bad one in my spare time.Who knows! when the weather warms up maybe it will start working again.This is going to be a warmer weather job due to the fact that it...

I havent really watched much ku on my 6 footer lately except maybe RTV on 83 and just found out the other day that my ku isnt working at all now via DMX 741 LMB.been a little lazy plus the weather to find out whats wrong!but i will fairly soon by starting with changing out the reciever then...

After reading the thread on the bigg dish i was wondering at what point will having a bigger disk make no differance in what you can get from a LOS satellite.Is a 24 ft dish really going to make any differance in what you can get or is it more of a statis thing and overkill.

Thanks for the kind words Shankle!Its a she kitty! (muffin) named by my wife and shes 7 yrs old.We also have a 5 yr old orange male tabby named Laser.

You did the right thing!Glad all worked out.I also played it safe late last summer when we got hit by a min hurricane/tropical storm.All went well except for power lines!We lost power for a week.

For me i can get most of the arc (30 to 135) with a 24" on my 6 ftr! a 18 or smaller would most certainly limit me to a smaller part of the arc.
