Hi all, the motor is a SaTracer 3 SW , does not appear to be equiped with a reset button. i think i need to experiment with a borrowed receiver.

Thanks Robbo, i have a subscription to bulsatcom so would need a card reader, leaving the blackbox out front, do you have any other budget reccomendations ? there doesn't seem to be a lot of "free" stuff out there, i used to watch premier and polsat, but no longer available as far as i know.

I'm considering buying a replacement / 2nd receiver and am looking at the technomate TM-3000d and the BlackBox/Dreambox 500s both at under £50. Does anyone have and use either of these models or any experience of them, would be interested in pro's and cons from people who know and understand...

It was inexpensive, around £40 when i bought it so i guess a clone.

It is a H-H mount DiSEqC motor/system, settings are Usals. Another point, is after resetting the whole system, i manually tuned a couple of the satellites and set the positions, however they won't stay and the motor continues past. I'm thinking that the info is sent to the motor from the...

Hi, Yes, i will try and find the make of the motor, just to be a little more specific about the problem, it doesn't change direction when it comes to the correct location, it just keeps on going, from one extreme to the other.. Thanks

Hi All, Today, i have a technical issue with my system, quite simply, i switched the receiver (especta ES-1130) to standby, and later turned it back on again, now, the motor/dish just track back and forth from east to west and though the signal shows as strong on various channels/sats the...

Hi, the choices seem to be TPS if on 10834 or Polsat if on 10892 though king claims a clear version on 11662 ...though i can't find it.. actually its cyfra+ not polsat (doh!) thats me screwed..

Forgive me for butting in, so were you watching canal+sport from Polsat ? or another provider ?

I didn't check the footprint, but did go through all the transponders for all there channels, and they all drew blanks, which suprised me..

Thanks for that, had a check but can't receive it here... thanks for the info.. And just to add something (for a change) Its the Digital+ package, inc Taquila etc.... Would have been handy to have. I've lost TPS, but gained Polsat, which gives me HBO, Fox Life, Extreme Sports, Eurosports and a...

I'm really struggling with this one..About as much as i can find is that it is a spanish provider, but what satellite and what channels ? Can't find anything on king or lyng.....and searches on here return in portugese...not my strongest language !! If any one can tell me which satellite then...

Hi Robbo...yes thats exactly what i need...a R232 cable female to female.....hence the NO! ....hope fully have it sorted in an hour or 2, and be able to watch the mighty Villa on premiere !!

Ah, just the info i was looking for, i was thinking of running my analogue box from the loopthrough on my digital receiver...so after reading this post it looks like it should work just fine..

Actually i have now assembled th eloader and a recent version of the firmware (week old or so) and today bought a cable (had picked up a vga with the receiver by mistake!!) ...and all raedy to rock n roll..... :-Nooo i've bought a bloody male-female !!!! maybe better luck tomorrow !
