- DesertMaxExplorerHey Bill, thanks as always up front.. Ok in the area of the 3 choices, the choices I made as shown in the photo are all that are available as choices. The DTV Tech told me that the choices shown are the correct choices.
If you know something about some way of making other choices in this area such as 18" only as you have suggested, then DTV did not indicate this and I would like to know it.
That tech also did suggest metering the coax which duplicates your recent recommendation. I will do that and let you know what I get..
PS... Have you heard of Triniti Communications and their USB "Ursa" aparati? Finding lots of interesting tech features on YouTube
especially in the area of free Internet tv etc.. A grain of salt! - Bill_SatelliteExplorer III highly recommend that you follow my earlier suggestion to set the antenna type to 18" round. This will force it to look for 101 only which is all you need anyway.
You might also want to go up on the roof, remove the dome and follow the coax cable into the electronics. With the receiver turned on (not the antenna), if you remove the coax at the electronics box, you should read 13-18VDC in the coax cable itself. If you do not then you have a cabling issue. - DesertMaxExplorerHey Bill, here are all the screens including the one showing 02, 02 & Single. thnx
- Bill_SatelliteExplorer IIGo to the page under "repeat satellite setup" and show me what's on the screen.
- DesertMaxExplorerHi Guys, I was able to set the sat to 101 under the dome and the DTV on screen menu verifies this. Still got an error 775 so although the receiver is talking to the tv, apparently not the dome..
I guess that old dog's seen better days... - DesertMaxExplorerThanks for the help..
- Bill_SatelliteExplorer IIYep, turn the dials. Just use a tiny screwdriver.
- EV2ExplorerSmall screwdriver that fits well into the arrow slot.
- DesertMaxExplorerSo you actually move those dials in the picture.. I thought about that the first time and today removed the dome cover once again but could not figure out any way to actually move them... grab hold of them...
- Bill_SatelliteExplorer IIMove the dials so the left is pointing at 1, the center pointing at 0 and the right pointing at 1. 101 just like it now reads 119. Be sure the power if off while you make the change and when you power it back up it will be looking for 101.
