universal rf-10 remote problems

I have two Universal RF-10 remotes with two MRF-100b RF receiver/transmitters. Question: How do I keep these remotes from controlling components in other rooms? I have DTV receivers and samsung TV's in both rooms and I dont know if there is a way to change freq. on one of these remotes?

I don't believe the RF-10's have addressable RF.

Yeah, you are right. Just heard from "universal" These remotes are not addressable. Thanks

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Honestly, I would rather see an expanded bracketed playoff system than the current Conference Championship Game + playoff model we're using right now. The Conference Championships essentially allow two teams to beat up on each other, and then both typically are going to end up in the playoffs anyway unless it is one of the weaker or smaller conferences. Let them play it out on the field against others.

Until the Big Ten changed thier alignment, (a couple years ago) ... it was not like that at all, the East side won most years the west side represented the Big Ten, but they may have been the team with the 4th best record ...
They finally changed that, to a single conference ... but yes, in most cases, both teams will get in ... now, its a certain both will get in ...

The biggest issue with the Conference Now is the Number of TEAMS .... WAY to Many.
It would take 2-3 YEARS to do a round robin where everyone would play one another ... How do you know how good a team is when teams don't play the same teams ?

That'd be more than the FA Cup! Over 700 teams. It is also the most glorious tournament in the world.

Maybe it is time to get rid of the College Football season and just go to a tournament. 128 teams, fill in the bottom end with the lower division. Random draw (except the top 10 teams are in one bucket to draw from in the first and second rounds to avoid OSU v Alabama in the first round), go from 128 to 8. 4 games. Then the 8 remaining teams play 7 games against each other. Then the top two play for the title.

So OU gets screwed and has to move the game under threat of forfeiture, because Ole Miss didn't want to take a 7hr bus ride or find another crew for a chartered flight. When did the crew time out? A 10pm flight cancellation should have had the crew flight ready again around 8am and in Norman by 10am. Everyone else figured this out. The sec better be reimbursing OU for this BS. The weather will be 15 degrees colder in the high 30's low 40's and raining Sunday, I'm sure Ole Miss will be complaining about that too.

If I were OU I'd have called their bluff and said OK, we forfeit. OU isn't going to the SEC Championship game or College Football Playoffs so it really wouldn't have mattered in the grand scheme of things.

America’s Fastest-Growing EV State Isn’t California—Not by a Long Shot

New data shows electric vehicle adoption is increasingly driven by state policies, electricity prices and charging access—not federal incentives
www.autoweek.com www.autoweek.com

The number-one US state for EV growth, according to the June 22 Yardi report?
Oklahoma.


:eek


It has no ZEV mandates and "minimal" incentives, Yardi says, but also has cheap electricity, high multi-car household rates (so, for example, a non-Lightning Ford F-150 pulls their trailers), and a consumer base willing to switch.

EV owners could face a new $130 annual federal fee as soon as December.

  • Congress is considering a new annual fee for electric vehicle owners to help fund road maintenance.
  • The proposed fee would start at $130 for EVs and $35 for plug-in hybrids, potentially increasing over time.
  • This fee aims to have EV drivers contribute to the Highway Trust Fund, which is primarily funded by gasoline taxes.

AT&T runs First Net which was set up so first responders have a signal almost everywhere, which is the case around here and up and down the east coast when I've been traveling. In my experience T-Mobile has the fastest network but patchy coverage while Verizon has a slow network and also patchy coverage as well. We also have a iPhone on T-Mobile and one on Mobile-X which uses the Verizon network, so comparison is easy.

I did a 2500 mile round trip road trip a few weeks ago, there were a handful of places where Verizon had service and I had nothing on FirstNet. Most notably in the backwoods of Kentucky and Tennessee. Those same places I had no service on T-Mobile either. In populated areas, like the Lexington metro and Knoxville metro AT&T not only had great coverage, better than Verizon and T-Mobile generally, they have n77 everywhere. I hit 1.2 Gbps or higher pretty much everywhere, beating out the other two. That is the exact opposite here back in Western NY. Very little n77 on AT&T here and T-Mobile always rockets to 1.5 Gbps or higher.

As far as I know, there is no AT&T tower in my town. The tower I connect to when I'm outside, no service indoors, is one about 4.5 miles north of me in a different town, I can barley latch on to band 12, not 14. It's LTE only but when near that tower I exceed 200 Mbps which is phenomenal for low band LTE, but T-Mobile and Verizon have mid band on the same tower, and i'm well over a gig.

I'm looking forward to the n14 conversion and deployment of n79/4.9 GHz. Since AT&T can't sell their home internet service in NY State, I don't expect big things from them besides the enhancements to FirstNet.

We're in NY and we can now. We're an AT&T retailer and have been selling AT&T Internet Air for a few months. It's $35 a month if you're an AT&T post paid subscriber, $55 a month if you're not a subscriber.

Wow when did that happen? I'm guessing AT&T caved and started offering a $15/month low income tier for those who qualify.

Hopefully this causes AT&T to blanket the state with DoD and cband. They are by far the slowest and have the highest latency generally speaking in Western NY.

It happened just recently, I think about four months ago.

We're in eastern upstate NY and AT&T is pretty good, for the most part it's 5G+. T-Mobile is definitely the fastest but not the best coverage, AT&T is next fastest with the best overall coverage and Verizon is the slowest with the worst coverage.

We're also looking forward to the new bands coming online.

I agree that's where this phone company discussion probably should be. I've been visiting howardforums twice a day for over 20 years, discovered lot's of really good deals and info there. However, whereas they used to have hundreds of contributors daily, it's now down to less than a dozen regulars and a couple of negative moderators. The site is on it's last legs. I think most participants have moved to reddit.

Just saying.

Well that is good news! Around here AT&T mid-band is only in the big suburbs and what I would call 'rural cities', a small city in a rural county that is usually the county seat. There are many rural towers I'm seeing 1.5 - 2 Gbps on with T-Mobile where AT&T is LTE only. And Verizon is humming along at 1 Gbps or a little higher on c-band.

I know I've said this many times, but my ultimate plan one day is to get a commercial grade 5G router that supports dual SIM and have T-Mobile and FirstNet SIMs activated. I want to wait until their are units that can support n14 and n79. I can't see spending well over $1000 on something that will be gimped in a couple of years.

There's a ton to talk about. It's just most people are ignorant when it comes to their hopeless addiction to their phones and spend a lot of time on them but have no idea how the signal gets from point A to B thinking they work on magic, wishes and unicorn farts. They only care when they are at an event with thousands of other people and can't do their tick tocks and Snapgrams and their $1500 shiny toys are useless, I really don't give a damn about phones themselves but I have a tremendous interest in the underlying technology.

I always have Signal Check Pro and Network Cell Info open, looking to see what I'm connected to and watch the levels fluctuate as I move around as environmental variables change.

On my FirstNet line, Signal Check Pro would only show the indepth info for the LTE anchor bands when on 5G on my Pixel Fold 9 & 10. On the Pixel Fold 11 it shows everything. Not sure why the change, it has nothing to do with SA v NSA. When I saw that, it was like Christmas morning for me.

I'm not perfect, but I'm getting pretty good where I can drive by a tower and know which provider(s) is on it and can pick out each provider by the rack.

What can I do with this satellite dish >>> ?

أهلا بالجميع،
حصلت على طبق استقبال فضائي كامل - باستثناء المكونات الإلكترونية الداخلية - من تاجر خردة.

يبدو أنه كان يستخدم سابقاً للوصول إلى الإنترنت عبر الأقمار الصناعية في منشأة حكومية.

كيف يمكنني الاستفادة من هذا الطبق؟

هل من الممكن الحصول على خدمة إنترنت عبر الأقمار الصناعية مجاناً، أم أن الاشتراك الشهري أو السنوي مطلوب؟

هل يمكن استخدامه لاستقبال قنوات التلفزيون الفضائية المجانية؟

هل من الممكن استقبال كليهما - قنوات التلفزيون عبر الأقمار الصناعية والإنترنت (التحميل/التنزيل) - في وقت واحد؟

هل يمكنني تغطية الطبق بمادة عازلة وواقية لحمايته من عوامل التعرية والتعرض لأشعة الشمس؟

هل هناك أي مكونات إضافية أحتاج إلى تثبيتها في الداخل لإكمال النظام؟

مواصفات الطبق:
عدسة Channel Master ذات البعد البؤري الرئيسي 1.2 متر
صُنع في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية
(نطاق Ku أو نطاق C، حسب المكون المستخدم)

شكراً للجميع.

ههههه، نعم، أنت محق النقاب - كنت واحداً من الأشخاص الذين كانوا يريدون به حقاً!
كان لدي جهاز استقبال فضائي كبير بمحرك، قطره 2.20 متر، مزود بذراع محرك قادر على تتبع الكثير من الأقمار الصناعية - من يوتلسات في الغرب وصولاً إلى قمر سوني الصناعي في الشرق.

لكن في هذه الأيام، لا يكاد أحد هنا لاستخدامه؛ فمعظم القنوات تُبث الآن عبر الإنترنت بالألياف الضوئية.
من أين أنتِ يا عزيزتي؟

you could replace the LNB/feed assembly with a standard LNBF, and buy a receiver. Looks like there are many Ku Band satellites that cover Saudi Arabia with lots of free channels. Europe, Africa & Middle East - LyngSat

For a receiver, you would have to see what's available in your area, but any recent FTA receiver would probably work.

Free internet is quite unlikely
