    Sidecar 905...

    truckracer- very interesting - How many channels are you getting scpc? I think which unit you get is a personal judgment call. Each has advantages and disadvantages. For instance the 920 remote has uhf capability the 905 does not. The 920 is more family friendly over the 905 being only one...

    Sidecar 905...

    partyharty- try good old e bay, ats electronics or skyvision. A side car isn't that much cheaper than a used 920 and it will move your dish. It is really nice to just pick a channel from the guide hit enter and have the dish move and tune the channel for you. A 920 with a blind scan dvb reciever...

    4dtv

    I bought Eagle Aspen's for both my c and ku feeds. They have been in use for a few years (north east heat/cold)with no problems. I here the Norsats are really a cut above but they are costly. I'm saving up for the Norsats and when I get them I'll keep the Eagle Aspin's as spares.

    Home Depot Coax......Any good?

    I'm still working on a 500' roll I bought from them years ago. No problems indoor or out. I have found that good cable is important, but the cable ends are really important. I have been using Snap n seals and think it's a really good product.

    Actuator Recommendations ?

    "Stay away from SuperJacks actuators" ..... I have been using the 36" superjack that came with my dish for several years without any problems. YMMV

    My IPG quit loading after new vcII board

    So what do you get exactly when you hit the guide button? Information Not Available? Processing your request? Something else?

    My IPG quit loading after new vcII board

    It's my understanding that the guide is an analogue subscription that they more or less give away.

    My IPG quit loading after new vcII board

    Call your program provider and give them the serial number of the new board then ask them for a re hit.

    Why doesn't Pansat etc just include DCII/VCII and an IPG for 100 bucks?

    It might not be Motorola. I read somewhere that Motorola would license DigiCipher just like they license VideoCipher II technology. But they haven't been approached by a manufacturer. Most if not all of the MPG-2 stuff we buy is not made for the US market. It would be great if some smart...

    4DTV DSR-920 Saved it! New Battery

    I really like your idea too. Also how about using a ups during the swap just in case power is interupted for some reason.

    Ku band problem solved

    I have heard that those Astrotel LNBs are hit or miss I would stay away from them unless I could exchange them without mail charges. It's great when you get your dish up and running have fun.
