Hello,
As you may have guessed by now I am a newbie to FTA. To give you just a little info, I am a technical type person but quite dumb as far as FTA goes and no doubt need to learn a lot to become independent.
Anyway, enough of that.
Current Status
I have completed the physical installation and have done my best to be meticulous insofar as getting the hardware mounted and connected correctly. From a hardware standpoint everything appears to be operable. I can get a limited signal stength (about 35 ->40) and quality of about 8-> 10. I can jog the motor if I go on the roof and use the manual buttons, and every once in a while the dish will rotate on it's own. (I may have stumbled onto a correct move command at the receiver) I even received some music from a Galaxie sat. Haven't gotten video yet.
I don't truly know what to do next,
This Nfusion booklet sucks
I'm guessing that I don't have things like LNB freq set right, TP configuration and so on. (I haven't a clue) Can you run me through one complete satelite setup or whatever the next thing I should do.
Short equip and location summary;
Nfusion,30"dish with invacom LNB. DiSEqC 1.2 motorized H-H Motor. cables are hooked from LNB to switch (one on L and one on C) then to motor then from motor to receiver. Motor is presently at "0" position and pointed due south. Elevation is locked in at 43 deg and declination at 30. LNB skew is at 0. My present position is Windsor Ontario LatN42.12.787 Lon W 83.06.188.
I'm going to bow out at this point to keep this note from getting any longer.
Thanks in advance
Roy

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....

Can we expect to see a new coach if we say "pretty please?"

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
