This fight was about as real as Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior. Tyson's legs and gas tank were clearly done by the second round and Paul backed off. There was no way that Paul was going to brutally KO a 58 year old boxing legend. It was a light sparring session for the rest of the fight.

Just checked with the 2.4m offset Prodelin here in central Canada, and the LPB channels are definitely still on the air, with no dropouts. The levels are slightly lower than the Florida channel. Hope that helps.

If it isn't too late, run a 1 inch (or bigger) conduit from your attic to your electrical panel. Technology changes fast.

Unfortunately I don't have much to add except to say that I was fortunate to meet your Dad. It was during the CES in Las Vegas around 90 or 91. Shaun Kenny rented a room for a presentation and Chuck Dawson was a guest speaker. Your Dad was a very good communicator.

Thank you for the great information! I am in the process of refurbishing the 2 motors but have encountered a bit of a problem in that I can't seem to get the housing apart. I don't know if there is a bolt I am missing or it simply requires a bit of force to get it apart. I will post more...

Forums like this are becoming rare yet so important and valuable in supporting big dish and FTA. Let's hope this forum and this great hobby are around another 21 years.

The tear down and rebuild begins.

I can't believe it, but I actually found another one of these Command Performance H to H motors. This one was being used to move a 12 foot Paraclipse. I found it in the same town where I got the first one. Perhaps a local dealer promoted these and there might be more. In both cases the dishes...

If you are using shielded cable you should have one bare wire which is called the drain. Ground this drain wire at the positioner (GBox) but do not connect the drain at the actuator. I was told this at a satellite show in Vegas many years ago. I don't even know why it works. lol

It's not that they are overrated, they just hit the wall. lol They were hot in their early 20's. The wall remains undefeated. lol

I have a question for all the inverter experts here. :) I have a champion generator, and I want to use it to power up my natural gas furnace if the hydro goes out. Unfortunately the furnace won't come on when connected to the generator. I borrowed my friends inverter and it works just fine on...

I agree. Why not contact the local ham club. They always have young people who are interested in electronics. I am sure some young person would love to have this equipment.

Now imagine the customer is in their 80's and has poor sight and hearing, mobility issues and struggles with simple tasks like changing channels and using the guide.

139w AMC-6 4056H 13250 I used to get this satellite (poorly) here in central Canada. I was cleaning up my C-band arc today and now can't get any signal. Is this satellite still active or did they change the footprint again? Thanks

I have often wondered about this myself. Could you use a satellite actuator as an electric trailer hitch jack? It would be easy to fabricate and weld the attachment bracket. A reversing switch would be needed and a 12v to 36v circuit would be easy to build. Does it however have enough torque to...

I am not going to strongly defend ShawDirect here but I never found them too bad to deal with. My complaints would be ridiculous hold times on the phone and frequent price increases. I don't like the new 830 PVR, however their Digicipher STB's have a far superior picture than Bell. Speaking of...

Are you kidding? You never throw away Satellite dishes or parts. :biggrin You should see my "satellite warehouse".

It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall at Shaw Direct and see how many people suddenly cancel their service.

Basically any government agency. At least with a private company there is usually some form of accountability.

I disagree that every large building has a big vertical space where all the wires are. I have installed SMATV systems in old MDU's where the wires had to go on the outside of the building.

What does the manual say? Did you read it?

Check and see if your channels are being received on the correct polarity. https://titaniumsatellite.com/downloads/Guides/C138_C238_LNBF_Install_Guide.pdf

Did you install the 238 with the same polarity orientation as the 138?
