Newbie needs alot of help please!

After a couple of months of frustration I am getting RTN E/W!!

Another thing the hacking software did not allow for is blind scanning.

Next is 125 for PBS...

if the wife does not want another dish, maybe a motor.

- congrats; your frustration paid off! - :up

- factory fimmware on the Viewsat Extreme does blind scan and hackware does not? Inconceivable!

- PBS: don't forget you'll need to be able to decode AC3 sound.

- Show her RTN, then show her PBS, and let her choose which to watch with the ONE dish...
With two dishes, switching between 'em would be instantaneous.
You might want to read the FTA department with an eye to what folks do with multiple LNBs on a single dish.
And a motor is fine, too. -

BTW Anole...

my wife thinks that this persistance can be a PITA (pain in the ...). I guess my background in teaching computer engineering and physics paid off.

Congratulations! Not many months back you wou[d've had a tougher time hitting RTV. They did bring up the power level recently which helped a lot. Persistence IS what it takes.

 

[Mr Tony]

sounds like someone has the RTV bug now

 

[SatboyZ]

Actually Ice...

I have had the RTV bug for a long time and have missed it since WNGS stopped broadcasting. It was part of the Buffalo locals package on Dish.
