Link to my recordings of K-Sat, C-Sat and some other old satellite radio shows. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sXqrXQERGYKU-xxMS7_ljSCJJJ88coeS?usp=sharing

Let's give it a try... Here's a link to my K-Sat, C-Sat and other satellite radio shows from years ago. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sXqrXQERGYKU-xxMS7_ljSCJJJ88coeS?usp=sharing

Hi bobvick. After I get all of the MP3's uploaded to google drive, I'll investigate if I can somehow get a link I can publicly share here. I've done private shares in the past years ago, but haven't investigated the in's and out's of making a public link.

GeneralsSon - I've sent you a private message, I have many hours of K-Sat in mp3 format I can share with you.

Hello dmosley. I have some parts of that Rise and Fall of FM America in mp3 format that I can share with you. (I actually found another cassette copy of it just a couple days back). I am actually in the process of uploading my entire K-Sat MP3 collection to google drive for GeneralsSon...

It's been ages since I've tried it, but I believe that one time that I had a PVR hard drive fail, I was able to open up the receiver and simply unplug the cables from the hard drive, and it then functioned like a regular receiver. That's going back many years..

Whew... Boy, things sure can get heated in here at times. A few years back, I had the opportunity to sit down and talk with Bob Cooper (Coop) - the father of TVRO. We discussed the late 80's and early 90's timeframe of the satellite industry. Something that Coop said still is true to...

I think that you WOULD run into trouble rebroadcasting signals received from satellite, unless you have express written permission to rebroadcast them. Satellites are used to get a signal from point A to point B, and are private communications. It is up to the broadcaster as to whether they...

Thank you for the answer.. That explains why their HD looks like crap. I guess I'll have to look at seeing what I can do to boost my over-the-air reception of digital channels. I also have a Manhattan HDTV Free-To-Air receiver that I can use to watch some of the network feeds..

2 weeks ago I attended a fall fair. Lots of vendors were at the fair selling their wares, and one of the vendors was selling Bell HD TV... I looked at the demo that they had (an HD DVR, playing a pre-recorded show). The "HD" video was less than impressive.. I have an over-the-air...

My offer included shipping... My theory is that if someone doesn't have the money to buy a receiver, they may not have the money for shipping. My intentions were to give the receiver to a home where the person could not normally afford a receiver. A fellow SatelliteGuy is going to be...

I hooked it up for the first time tonight in likely a year and scanned a few birds.. You're right, it is a great receiver! I have a Manhattan MPEG2/MPEG4 receiver now, so I know that this Visionsat would sit on the shelf for many more years if I didn't give it away or sell it. Knowing...

Receiver is spoken for and is going to a good home. I took the very first reply that had a good home for the receiver - I wasn't going to make it into any sort of competition. One of the SatelliteGuys here is going to set up an FTA system for someone who is not able to afford a receiver...

It's been a while since I've seen a Random Act Of Kindness posted here, so I'm going to do one. I have a Visionsat PVR receiver that I am going to give away. Here are the specifics.. I realize that many people these days are suffering from bad economic times. I would like to give away...

Congrats to chadg2 on the win. Thanks SatelliteAV for giving out the free stuff! I realize that the contest is closed, but I figured that I'd post a story anyways. Back in the early 80's while going to public school, a bunch of my friends and myself use to bug the janitor about his smoking...

Not after a bunch of people cancel service, their revenues won't be growing by 10%. If I were to look into my crystal ball, I think that revenue will only grow by 5% due to the subscriber churn. Lately I've been toying with the idea of cancelling.. Sure.. $2/month won't break me, but...

Macclatom - Where abouts are you located? If there is a "SatelliteGuy" who lives close by, they might be willing to drop by for a coffee and to check out your setup to see what will work for you ;)

I just noticed the same thing about an hour ago.. I did a blind scan using the Manhattan and was surprised to see the GDMX channels coming in!

Have you tried manually to enter in the frequency and symbol rate info? I've seen situations where the receiver will scan and will be off by a Mhz or two. Manually punch in the frequency and symbol rate to see if that helps. (Don't use blind scan) How big of a dish do you have fire1000?

I don't think that the above statement is correct. When I record 2 different streams on the Manhattan, for the same amount of time, they come up with different file sizes depending on the amount of motion in the video and the type of programming on each of the streams. The Manhattan records...

That would be amazing! Record the entire Puerto Rico mux on 99W C-Band, and you'll have most of the major network programming for the entire evening recorded... That would require a LOT of storage space :) I am super pleased with the Manhattan's ability to record 2 shows on a mux, while...

I just looked at that foot print map closer... Am I reading it right? Are they only planning on using C-Band on that bird for South America?

It is quite amazing how they can focus those beams the way that they do. It certainly is going to result in a lot of cancellations to Shaw Direct's service. I think that the grey-market for Shaw likely accounts for a good percentage of their subscribers. I would be curious to know if it is...
