Customer wants me to change her over from c band to ku band for dr scott so she can get the 10' dish out of her yard. I understand signal has moved to 97 west. Anything I need to do to the Gi receiver for ku changeover?
Thanks.
Moved my locals to spotbeam 26 and am having all kinds of problems with my 622. Signal keeps droping out every 2 minutes or so. SF dma. All I have to do is touch the dvr button and it comes back. This crap is getting old fast.:mad:
Lost an ota timer and lost signal message while watching fox news last night. Just touch the dvr button and signal comes back. Happened several times. Receiver is 2 days old. You can welcome me to the club.:no
Watched voom for the first time in a month or two. Rave was terrible today with the Dan Folgerberg concert. Sound dropouts and picture freezing. Anyone else?
Being a retailer that also does a lot of antenna installs I can guarantee you that the OTA picture is much better than sat HD. The sat signal is compressed more than the antenna signal [90% of the time].
I sell LCD's and love them. Customers love the sharp picture and the 160 degree viewing angle. Expensive with a good quality 40" running about $4000. Anything over 40" look into DLP sets.
Being a retailer I was pissed when 280 screwed up my 942. I fired of a email to the VP requesting that he run down to engineering and strangle someone. Must have done it.
Just received word from Erik Carlson that 129 bird missing from point dish screen should be fixed tonight. Don't know about any of the other problems but I bet engineering is working like a one armed paper hanger.
Go to atechfabrication.com and click on antennas. The dual setup using Blakes has a long range. A lot depends on your local terrain. I know a guy that gets San Francisco from his house in Georgetown [ in the Sierras above Auburn ] with no problem. That's well over 100 miles. Go to...
Grounding is bull. Can cause more problems than you think. Also your phone lines are more likely to carry a strike than anything else. During storms be sure to disconnect your receiver.
A lot of the time those would be your worst installers. Check with neighbors and friends. Get good referals. Dish's vru gives you the busy hacks most of the time. Quanity not quality
