    OTA has bit the Dust

    one would think making a dongle is cheaper than adding a tuner. but then again they buy this stuff in bulk they buy it for pennies on the dollar to the point the don't even get a warranty on stuff that's how cheap they buy it.. do you think they pay the cost of the 2TB HDD'S 🤔 they get them a...

    Rest NTSC mode on Octagon SF 8008

    Thanks for that information. I will try again, but the few times I try UPdt never shows up on the TV or the receiver. It boots up the receiver and the channel numbers come up on it.

    Hopper 3 with sling already bit the dust installed 11-13

    If they fail they usually fail within the first two weeks. That is actually kind of normal for electronics. With that said the number that fail within that time is small. I still have my original Hopper 3 which I had for at least a year before they were released to the general public. I...

    What's For Lunch?

    Chicken tenders are one of my favorite things. We have a pub here in Albuquerque that runs a special every once in a while called "Loaded Chicken Tenders." It's 4 large chicken tenders and fries smothered in Hatch green chile sauce and cheese. It's amazing.

    Hopper 3 with sling already bit the dust installed 11-13

    I got this installed Nov 13 by a local dealer. I hope whatever they send me next lasts longer than a couple weeks. Is that one of the first Hopper 3 models? Dish says the free replacement they're sending me is a newer model. We'll see how it goes in 1 to 5 business days.

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    Page 53 of the Users Guide posted above clearly states "destination multicast IP address" in Figure 38. Most firewalls/routers that have multicast support is exactly for supporting provider IPTV, which is really access into the provider's private multicast network via an internet last-mile...

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    I was tempted to buy an eBay International Datacasting Superflex receiver solely for snooping satellite data. They also make the Novra series of data receivers used to NOAAPORT ground stations. I''m not sure if a particular router that is tailored for multicasting is necessary. And the apparent...

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    Does anybody have any experience with that Octagon SF8008 Supreme dual tuner receiver that Rick is selling? Can it output TS files? It appears to be similar to the Edision receivers that have a WebIf interface and streaming capabilities. https://rickssatelliteusa.com/sf8008supreme.htm

    Well, in that case, bigger dish, and/or better aim might help.

    Rest NTSC mode on Octagon SF 8008

    I just can't get the menu to show up. If I could do that I know what to do to reset it. All I was going to do was adjust the brightness a bit. When the menu came up I started to scroll down to do that and everything just went dark. So I just don't know what to do to get the menu to show back up...
