I am sorry, but this I am sure has been covered. I am running on fumes and just found this site and am having trouble understanding the lingo. If anyone has a good link that will do.

I have the dish 625 receiver in dual mode. The receiver is in the basement and tv 2 is run upstairs. I have an office in the basement, that I want to put a tv in. What I would like to do, is have the signal from tv2 split to the office in the basement. I was able to split tv1, but that tv will be used, and I may want to watch another channel, and tv2 I know wont be used.

I hope thats not too confusing.

I had a splitter laying around, and ran a line to the in on the splitter from the output for tv2 on the 625, from the splitter, one went to the new tv, and the line that feeds the existing tv upstairs to the second output on the splitter. I was not able to get any signal on the test tv.

The splitter used was a Holland 2 way 5-1000Mhz. But not sure about the cables, one for sure was a rj6, the 2nd was cable from the dish box, but the other was questionalbe.

If I am on the right track but need to check cables let me know, but if the way I am going about it is way off, I'd appreciate the correction.

You have to change the channel on the TV to the modulated ouptut set in the 625. What channel are you using for TV2?

Splitting the TV2 output should work with the splitter you're using.

I tried using channel 2 and 3, but will check the 625 for whats set, or check the upstairs tv to see what channel its on. I assumed it would be 2,3.

That's your problem. Go to Menu, 6, 1, 5 and you'll see the channel that TV2 is using. Go to the TV and change it to that channel.

TV 2 cannot be set to channels 2 or 3 or 4. TV 2 has a range of 21 - 69 air mode and 73-125 cable mode. Also note:

21 air = 72 cable
22 air = 73 cable
23 air = 74 cable
...
Until 43 air = 94 cable

Then it changes a bit to:

44 air = 100 cable
45 air = 101 cable
46 air = 102 cable
...
Until 69 air = 125 cable.

The end.

Thanks yall for all the help. Got it fixed. Yup, the modulation was set to channel 73, had to add the channel to the new tube and it worked. Now I got a 13" in my office. Whoo hoo. Just need to get another UHF remote and I'll be good to go.

Actually I survived despite them for 31 years and two expait assignments. But the quest for the current quarter's profits doomed long term vision, planning and actions.

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....

No problem here (in central Europe) with a 10-footer. Do note that 9.4 dB required for the lock.
The mod is DVB-S2 8PSK with FEC 5/6.

Finally! Some big movement in California diesel pricing (and no, there is no such beastie as a diesel "winter formula").

Crude (combined pricing) is around $90/barrel now, so prices should have, at least, fallen in step with the crude futures.

Just curious here.....then why is diesel so much higher out there than it is elsewhere. Bobby just posted $7.59/gal, locally it is $5.59.....that's two bucks difference. :eeek

California has a ~93¢ per gallon consumer tax rate on automotive diesel, along with significantly higher refinement standards.

The fact that consumers can only buy some new full-sized truck models and a couple of vans with diesel power makes the fuel an odd duck in refinery priorities.

The Charter/Spectrum tv app has been updated to make it downloaded with more tv brands. I recently added it to my LG Oled tv.

This thread is a place to discuss the 4K events that appear on channel 540. We are getting, at this point, one college football game a week. Let's hope there is more coming.

Not seeing many 4k games on the 148 channels lately?

Also I do not see the 4KFox channel on 148-01; I also do not subscribed to our Local Houston channels.

Maybe I need to subscribe to locals or add the National Action Pack? Not sure the extra cost is worth it??

thx for any info or suggestions

Most of the 4K action on the 148-xx channels will be on Saturday for College Football. For whatever reason, the guide does not show the games until later in the week. The Fox Big Noon game will show up, and there will usually be a couple of other games, some on Fox, and some on ESPN.

I don't know if you need to be subscribed to locals to get them.

Now after reading this story I walked away thinking that this is being blown out of proportion because of the incredibly low numbers of those affected.....BUT....I've read posts by some of you who are taking this drug so I figured it was worth posting.
