    Is it possible to hook up a friends receiver to my system?

    Thanks for the guide. I am having a problem with setting this up. His box was set to see satellite @ 95 and mine is at 72.5. I set it back up to look at 72.5 and everything seems ok. I am getting signal strength on all the transponders and ran the satellite checklist and everything said OK...
