This is related to a previous thread about the 4422 Unity receivers I ordered (like a dumba**) without realizing they only had an ASI input and no RF. 2 questions:
#1 Is it possible the sniff out the location of the ASI output of a coolsat?
#2 Is it possible that maybe the RF module is already in the 4422 with lack of connector?
Tron, when you read this, keep in mind I have 2 of these 4422's. I may go ahead and list it on Ebay and make it a fair game for everyone.
Chime in!

Got my six decoders yesterday, none had RF in. At least two of them are in mint, i.e., never been installed, condition. The others are very clean for used broadcast gear. I'm a very happy camper 
No idea if ASI can be 'tapped' from a Coolsat, or any other consumer FTA box. The data would have to be serialized, and I doubt that it ever is in these units. I know that the Visionsat will record the transport stream of any QPSK DVB signal, including HD and 4:2:2 (just tested 4:2:2 from NBC). ASI out would be a great addition, but most consumers wouldn't have a use for it. The best solution would be a Digitrans 7100 with ASI out connected to a Unity 4422 for 4:2:2.

Thanks, Tron
Upon closer examination of the auction pictures it appears that there is no ASI on the unit I'm getting.
I couldn't find the manual for a Tandberg, but the Standard SDR-422 looks like the same receiver. The place for the ASI jack on the one I bought is blanked, and the jack shown in the manual for optional frame sync, is labeled analog video 2 in the auction pictures. So I won't be needing to know what to do with ASI since I don't have it. Thanks again for the information.
My systems have been down for a while but I finally got the dish pointed correctly again and I'm starting to get back into FTA as much as I can.

For some reason, the satelliteguys.us site is loading a lot slower than usual on both Chrome on my Asus laptop and Safari on my iPhone.
I'm also seeing longer appearances of the blue bar at the top and the "3 blue bars" loading symbol.
Is anyone else also having the same problem? Thanks in advance.

Wasn't exactly sure where to post this. Just had a customer come in inquiring about internet. He has HughesNet and had heard good things about mine. He asked if we provided email addresses and it kinda caught me off guard. I said he should be able to keep whatever email he had been using....my sister in law is still using a BellSouth email addy and they haven't been around here for many years. He said he had gotten a letter from HughesNet stating that they had until Nov 16th to save, move, forward, whatever, their Hughesnet emails because they would lose them after that date.
I have never heard of a company simply mass-deleting email accounts (the customer still has his HughesNet service). From what I understand, in the past, the company who was ditching their email service simply sold the customer base to a company like Google.
Anyone else getting this letter. He said he would show it to me tomorrow when I go out there and set up his internet.

Can't help but wonder if a worker overlooked checking the harness. I rarely ride a roller coaster anymore but when I do I check the harness myself pretty aggressively.
Can't imagine what the son is going through.

It makes sense, however, I would want more types of restraints, so if one doesn't work, the other does ... the restraints coming over the shoulder I would have expected ... with a Seat belt as last resort.
Fwiw, I inquired with what they use on Coasters at Cedar Point, various Coasters, different restraints according to what the car and track requires ...
NONE of the Coasters at CP use THAT particular system
I'm glad to see ...

I bought the fixed color version of these bulbs for my store several years ago...work great and no more replacing ballast. Finally had one go out and when I went back to Amazon I saw that now they come in selectable versions so no more guess work as to what color light would do best in a certain area. They are now double OR single ended...used to be strictly one way or the other. If any of you are looking at replacing the old style 4 or 8 ft bulbs, you might want to give these a try. The 8 footers are BRIGHT. I put 5 in my shooting/target shed and you can get a decent tan if you are in there long enough.
