azores1961, I'm in USA and currently using Dreambox Busters image on a 7020. This seems to work well. Look for this image on some North american sites: DBBusters7020-v2.1.1_multiboot. P.S. - Hello to my UK friends! Long time no talk to! Currently using: Dreambox 7020-s W/ 300 Gb Hdd, 128Mb...

Try choosing "ALL" not "FTA". I know, this will also scan the encrypted channels but it will at least tell us if the box is able to find something and save it.

With that receiver I had to set up a LNB with 11250. (manually put it in with the remote in the antenna LNB set up - not the TP set up). Worth a try, you alway can change it back. I am learning that your satellite equipment are a bit differant over in Europe. It is a neat receiver but I have...

I would first bypass the positioner motor and hook up directly to the LNB. Have it aimed to a satellite then do a power scan with "all". This will take a little while but it does a complete sweep of the satellite and will find all possible transponders and what is on them. Before this is done...

Anybody wish to share their creative wiring? This is a one receiver, DiSEqc-4 switch, and 4 0/22 Khz switches. This allows 8 dishes to be switch automatically from one receiver. ( Just for those who have lots of room for the dishes. I know, just get one dish with a motor....

Uhm...well...I didn't show pictures of all of the dishes... I am always doing transplants. Just like trees! Maybe i'll take some pix's this weekend of receivers, DVD recorder, New dual layer DVD burners (yes more than one), blah, blah, blah. Thanks

The actual antenna element is inside of the can. Have you ever opened up the face of and LNB? In the can is a small piece of wire sticking straight up (vertically). It is only about 3 Cm tall. It is vertical to receive/transmit on a vertical plane. The can "focuses" only towards the dish. The...

Good site! I belong to several North American forums about Satellite reception and this site seems to be alot more respectful to others. (or maybe my bashing day will come soon). Glad to be a member! ---just wanted to give feedback from what I observed with this forum.

and make sure it's dried off...heh..heh..heh...

No, Think of it like what women think of men and manhood............... "The bigger The better". Actually the larger dish diameter will get you greater distance. Other factors need to be addressed. A formula is used to calculate how far in front of the dish on where the element is placed. it is...

From experience.......A majority of the problems found with Sony TV's are from Bad soldering connections that breakdown over a period of time either due to heat or high frequency making the connection actually oscillate break the solder connection. I recommend that the 1st thing to try would be...

As requested by BGonaSTICK.............. RE: ...Also....I know, wrong forum... (1) 18" for wireless networking (2.4 Ghz)and installing a 30" x 40" for wireless networking (2.4 Ghz). P.S. - I have a dual antenna wireless access point (2.4 Ghz) outside also. If anyone is intersted I can also post...

T_G is closer! I am is the SouthWestern part of the U.S.

Actually.... I am somewhere in North America. U.S.A. What area? You can try to guess by the angle of the dish tilt! Heh, Heh.... Over here when Subscribers of a services like DishNetwork, DirecTV, or Bell ExpressVu change service providers to someone else the new provider simply unbolts the 1st...

Some of my fuctional dishes.... (see attachments)
