Relocating from 61.5° to 129° question.

First, English not being my first language, I hope this can be easily understandable. First post here and need some info. My equipment, Dish 500 at 110° & 119° and a second dish at 61.5° for HD content. I'm in upper state N.Y. Few days ago, got a call from a Dishnetwork C.S. saying that I need to transfer my 61.5° to the 129° satellite position otherwise I would lose some programming content. They wanted to send an installer to make the appropriate changes. Not often being home and just about ready to move to Florida for the winter season, I told him that I will be in touch with them when I'm back from Florida. Yesterday got a hold of my local Dishnetwork installer and told him about the call from Dish. He said that actually I should get a Dish 1000.4 aimed at 61.5, 72.7 and 77° satellite. Never got an answer from him as to why the move from 61.5 to 129 as per Dishnetwork request. Two questions: first, if I do go his way (1000.4 dish), I'm still pointing at the 61.5 sat., might as well stay as it is right now with dish 500 and second dish at 61.5. Second questions, is Dishnetwork moving their HD content to the 129 sat and that's why they wanted me to switch over. Thanks for the help. Andy

Andy,

Your English is better than most.

With your current 110/119.61.5 there are a bunch of HD channels that you are not receiving... BBCA in HD comes to mind.

Your notion that "61.5, 72.7 and 77" means that you are still pointing at 61.5 and therefore there is no need to change is mistaken.

Thanks SaltiDaw and n0qcu. You are right; I was looking at the 72.7° sat. Channels listing and I'm missing roughly 15-20 HD. Have them right now but SD only. Some of them are really worth the changeover. I will switch over to the eastern arc (61.5, 72.7 and 77°) as soon as possible. More questions come to mind. In the menu (installation/point dish/dish system), I don't see a 1000.4 setup. My local installer told me that I just turn off both receiver (722) and unplug the unit; wait 20-30 minutes, restart and the 1000.4 should come up. Tried that but didn't get the 1000.4 in dish system. Can I use my dish 500 (110 & 119) and repoint !! them at 72.7 and 77° and keep my wing dish at 61.5° Do I have to call Dishnetwork to get them to download some kind of software to get azimuth, elevation and skew for the 72. & 77 sat. Thanks again for the help.

It is my understanding that the 1009.4 will never come up as a configuration on the dish screen. Another poster said that he/she thought this was the case because Dish feels that installing a 1000/4 antenna is a job for a pro with a Sat meter. I don't know if this is true.

Hi Andreny and the group, First to answer your question on not seeing the dish 1000.4, I don't think you will see it listed unless your receiver is hooked up to a dish 1000.4.

Regarding finding the azimuth and elevation you could use dishpointer.com and enter your address then get the azimuth/elevation for each of the E.A. satellites (61.5, 72.7, 77west).

Regarding using a dish 500 on E.A. yes it can be done; however, you will loose some signal quality because the dish 500 was designed to be used on two satellites that are 9 degrees apart (110/119W) To use it on E.A. you would have to split the difference between 61.5 and 72.7 (11.7 degrees apart)

To set up the dish 500 on E.A. you would take the dish that is on 110/119 and re-skew and re-point to 61.5/72.7 and then re-point the dish that is on 61.5 to 77W.

Hope this helps, DC

72.7 & 77 are too close together to use with that dish 500. I'm not sure you can even see 77 in western NY (i have no problem finding 72.7 or 82, but nothing in between). To find the 1000.4 numbers, check out dishpointer.com. Satellite dish look angle pointer calculator lets you calculate them for more arbitrary combinations.

Many thanks for all the info. and suggestions from all of you. Tried to go the easy way this afternoon and re-pointed my wing dish from 61.5 to 129°. Got the az., elev., and skew from web site refereed by all of you. I had no problem hitting the 72.7 then 110 and 119 (all with the respective az and Elev ) on my way to 129 but never got the 129 sat. Is there such a bird LOL.... Finally gave up with a frozen "derrière" and fingers. What kind of signal strength should I get from 129 if I ever find it !!!!! Right now 61.5, 110 & 119 have signal strength around 65-70. A bit warmer next week, I will try delta_charlie suggestion and use my Dish 500 (110/119) and re-point it to 61.5/72.7 and the wing dish at 77°. Thanks again to all of you. Keep you posted next week.

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....

Repair DX100 American Electrola Radio, AM FM SW?

I have a DX100 American Electrola Radio, AM FM SW. It is a receiver only, which quit working many years ago. Several years ago the seller had stated that capacitors would need replaced because they go bad.

In this particular xxx://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zUbXgNT8Oo they mentioned the backup battery being the problem.

Several years back when asking about having the capacitors replaced one former repairman said send it back to the factory, well there is not any. Another response several years ago from a person who repaired circuit boards for industry said they could repair it if they had a schematic, again I do not have.

This radio was built in Pittsburgh, PA out of as many American parts as they could find. Your thoughts on getting the radio to work?

I can e-mail you pdf copies of the the manuals and schematics. The tuning not working is probably the tuning encoder. I recently found one that fits my DXC-100 from Mouser Electronic Supply. I'll be glad to include the encoder part number used to repair my radio. My radio doesn't have the battery so may be a bit different than mine.

Deheza,

Thanks for your information and offer. My Radio is actually a DXC 100 as well, was a typo in the title. Am puzzled by yours not having the battery, since they only made two runs. While the schematics would be great, I believe by the amount of views it would be better to post all the information here.

I see where numerous people have posted pdf files, just not sure how they do it.

Sorry about the long response time, just was not sure how to handle it.

Thanks,

Respectively,

Gray Hair

If you change that diode, make sure you know what type it is, a regular rectifier, zener, whatever, don't just throw any old diode in. Try to read the number on it and look it up. Do you have a multimeter? A lot of the things in there can be easily checked with a meter.

Trying to run it off a clean 12 V source like a battery would be a good idea, like someone else suggested. In a couple of your pictures there's a 9v regulator [7809CT], and I think I saw a 5 V regulator [7805]. The 5v probably supplies the display and the 9v the radio circuitry. If you have a meter that would be a first place to check, check the three pins on each for a 12v input, a gnd, a 5v output on the 5v and a 9v output on the 9v. Bad solder connections is another good possibility.

That radio looks to be in nice shape inside. It doesn't look like anyone's worked it over, looks nice.

The back-up battery is probably just for a memory function, when you replace it make sure you use the same type, cadmium, lithium-ion, whatever it is, it should say on it what type it is and the voltage, or have a part# that can be looked up.

I have just started working on one of these and could really use the schematics and a copy of the manual - can anybody send them to me or attach a link? I did construct a manual from "azenithnut" , but his zip file is missing pages 16,17. My radio display only briefly lights up when powered on. the tuner and audio section appears to work fine. I have already replaced the back-up battery. I have the second generation radio. TIA

Updated to H715 on a Hopper 3 from H713

After a strange reboot last night in the middle of viewing, this morning several more reboots and about a half an hour download.

Just did the update check manually about an hour ago with Hopper 3 on H713 and Hopper Plus on P15403.
Noticed something new when I clicked on the Update Software, it presented a pop-up as follows:
"Update software 1573
Update later Update now Cancel" with those three buttons which did not exist before.

After updating the H715 - I guess there must be major bugs as both H709 and H714 were skipped.

So here are the issue(s):

Issue #1
It did fix the problem with H713 which was:
"One of the problems I am seeing is that the Available Joey Software section no longer is showing the Android TV versions even after a manual software reset twice and the nightly reboot. Until it does, nether Technician Android TV download and Hopper Plus is able to check, download and update the Android TV software."

This was a major problem with H703.

H710 removed that dependency so H711 and H712 were working without that dependency but H713 brought it back which is fixed in H715 as no P versions or Android TV versions are shown in the Available Joey Software on the main Diagnostics screen.
However, with that said, the TECHNICIAN SETTINGS, Download ATV (Android TV) Files is not working correctly as the Download ATV Files shows:
"Download ATV Files 3000
Download in progress. This operation will be
complete when the files are downloaded

Joey 4 : P554- Failed
Joey 4 : P55403- Failed
Wireless Joey 4 : P654- Failed
Wireless Joey 4 : P65403- Complete
HopperPlus : P154- Complete
HopperPlus : P15403- Failed

OK"
From what I can tell, each of them goes through the Downloading followed by the Processing stages first before it goes into the Failed or Complete stage. It seemed to be going in a loop earlier as it will start downloading from the first item being the Joey 4 each time before it eventually stopped. This is the first time ever since 2023 that I had ever seen it Failed.

With that said, the dependency appears to still be required for the Hopper Plus to check, download and update the Android TV software as it says Failed, No Target when going to "Device Preferences", About, "Software Update"

Issue #2
Still cannot cast to Hopper 3 with Hopper Plus(Software P15317) with the Hopper Plus "Google Chromecast Built-In" feature" as it shows up as a casting device when the Hopper Plus is online and disappears when the Hopper 3 and Hopper Plus does it's nightly reboots but times out when one tries to cast to it and always shows up as Not available in the Google Home app on Android phone. No one else anywhere on the internet had confirmed whether it is working for them or not. Per brittanygarden in DM on October 16, 2026:
"We've been working with Google on this. We have a fix on the Google side projected for Q4. I know we're in Q4 now, but I will try to get a narrowed down timeline for you."

I have not been updated to 715 yet. I am on a QE "Beta" or Test version that did fix the audio issue. The last communication I had with the team mentioned that the full release of that fix was likely in December.
It would be nice to know if 715 does solve that issue of no audio when Dolby is ON, during 4K HDR events.

The game time was just a product of so many top 25 matchups. I think they said it was the most in one day since the 1930s.

Not everyone can play at night and get a tv slot.

Could. Yes.

But you know as well as I that they are not going A: put all of their prime matchups on at the same time. And B: take their main games off of the main channels.


You had bama vs lsu, and Georgia vs Ole Miss to choose from.

Considering Georgia had beaten Bama and Ole Miss had beaten LSU, I can see that why they chose that game for the night matchup (without the benefit of hindsight as to how the game's Saturday would play out).

You also had Tennessee vs Kentucky to fit in the mix.


Someone had to be at 2:30. Which imo is honestly my preferred slot for bama games no matter who they are playing or where.


None of them was going to be a streaming only game, and none where going on an "alternate" channel.

Yes. I even said so. But for reasons I gave, they won't. Wouldn't make sense for them too and they would lose money. A lot of these people that watch one of these games, watch more than one.

They want those eyeballs on as many games as possible. It just makes financial sense.
