Very well - I then reinstate my original request... :)

Good night... is there like an idiot's guide for the Hopper connections & options somewhere?? (Not trying to hijack the thread - just had to comment on that post Navychop!)

I Should have said ESPN3 for SD ... think it's already on HD? Maybe I should just be quiet... :)

Ahhh - so I guess "500 Plus" and 500+ aren't the same animals... yeesh and I thought big-dish stuff was hard to keep up with... I don't have a 1000 or 'superdish' or whatever - just a typical '500 Plus' dish... Anyway - now with all that said - using the 500 on one dish with a single lnbf on a...

What I meant was I have a second empty dish I could mount a single lnbf, point to 129 and connect to the 500+... I haven't toyed much with the Dish setups like everyone else has so I'm nowhere up to speed on them...

Hmmm - not exactly... This is what I have - 110/119 with a 3rd sat connection... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dish-Network-DPP-TWIN-LNB-110-119-Pro-Plus-DPPTWIN-500-lnbf-3rd-sat-in-option-/181142535951

Ok - so I need another LNB in the mix.... sounds like just re-aiming won't give me 119/129 with this LNB... 9 degrees vs 10 degrees...? I have a second dish I could throw a single on for 129 - then connect it to the third connector on the 500 Plus, correct?

Currently have a 625 DVR and 500 Plus Dish & LNB (500 Plus with the 3 connectors - and only use one of them) LNBF is dead - confirmed dead.. tried the neighbors receiver and a new switch - nada, nothing... So - I have to get a replacement LNBF... anybody have an extra one for cheap they can...

3 reboots. Powered off for a couple of hours. Checked cables (disconnected / reconnected) all the way to the LNB - they all look to be ok - no corrosion, etc... Only thing I haven't tried but will tomorrow (too dark to mess with now) is stretching a new cable directly to the LNB... Going...

Hey all - mine went out earlier (around 4:00 or so) and I checked and saw this thread so figured I'd wait a bit... but it's still out. The satellite signal is zero for 110 & 119... if it was just an uplink I would still have sat strength - right? I'm thinking my LNB has just bit the dirt... it's...

ESPN3

I think the thread subject pretty much sums it up... I'm looking for a way to patch phone audio through the sound system (which I know is fairly easy to do) But - I'm also looking for a method to mic multiple rooms as well (basically like a large conference room) I know our typical office...

Hi all, I've been off for quite a while due to my wife's health issues. We're headed back to Houston this week for another surgery (this makes 3). We're hopeful this will be the last one for a while - it's in God's hands... Anyway - I stumbled across this today and thought I'd post it for...

Hey Spiff... yer PM box is full. Need to know about 2morrow... Shoot me a message... you still have my email addy?

Ok... I've been working with computers for 30 years - Linux for 15 years and I don't ever recall once thinking that I was any smarter than the next person. Just because I have more experience at doing some things than someone else doesn't make me smarter... Maybe a smarta$$ at times, but not...

Linux is a different world but if you stick with it through the learning curve, it won't let you down like winderz... You'll probably want to stick with Kaffeine and/or VLC. Myth is good, but for it to shine you want a back-end server with a ton of disk space (it holds all the recordings) in a...

I'm using K9Copy - in Linux...

Eww... looks like Darkstar hasn't been updated in a couple years... it may be a dead one? But... hey - that makes it more like XP, right? DARKSTAR Linux Project | Secure and Easy to use!

The PS3 runs Yellowdog. The media PC (and my other PCs) are on 14Karat Linux :D :D :D (my personal variant of Fedora 10 currently.) I have used Ubuntu (and other Debs), Mandrake, Mandriva, SUSE, Knoppix, Slackware, Gentoo, Linspire, Freespire... and some others I can't recall currently...

I've used a Corotor II and a 621. Corotor works much better than the 621. Neither one is easy to get dialed in on a BUD. Expect plenty of tinkering, fijiting, adjusting, head-scratching, beating, banging, gnashing-of-teeth, and just all-out stress. In other words, take your time and don't lose...

You'll need a mover of some sort. I would tell you to keep the 4D for the purpose and keep a 4D subscription (even a minimal one) with one of the other providers. (4D needs the support!) Anyway, if you're bent on getting rid of the 4D, the other option will be an old analog box for a mover or...

:eek: Usually when I talk about something I saw on TV the night before and they ask me what service I'm with to receive that channel... :rolleyes:

Way to go Popcorn! Myself, I'm nearing the end of my 2nd year as a member. A few of the best $s I've spent.

$500 eh...? Since I'm up to my neck in C-band dishes... I'd start with your 1.2m Ku dish package (Package #6) with the SG9120 motor for $325 Add a 2nd SG9120 for an existing 1m Ku dish - $79 And then tack on a Vbox $65 I'm sure the shipping would put me well over $500 after that...

I don't care what type of transport they are using, it is ridiculous to send it unencrypted. It is entirely too inexpensive and simple to encrypt feeds. And someone pointing a satellite dish and receiving an unencrypted feed is NOT a 'hacker' and not even a 'cracker' (which is the actual term...
