    4DTV & ADULT CHANNELS ?

    You can subscribe to the two porn channels on IA-6 (T6) the 4dtv would be able to get many adult channels, more than any other system though playboy does not want to allow sales for there master feeds, best you can do is ask you provider, or if you know anyone at Playboy that has power then they...

    How many 4DTV's in use out there?

    The sub count should be over 125000, I use my bud every day, I talk to the guy at www.rpssat.com every once in a while, and he tells me they have a hard time stocking the 4dtv's, they sell out fast, so I guess people are still using there buds and upgrading them :)

    set up 4dtv 922 then lost the dc light

    I have never ever heard of the VC board effecting the digital channels, if so take it out and see what happends, you do not even need a VC board unless you sub to analog. What quality are you getting on the HBO V and H feeds on Galaxy-1R? the FEC rate (forward error correction) that HBO uses...

    set up 4dtv 922 then lost the dc light

    G1-150-166 are on a stronger transponder, 167 and up are on a weaker transponder, a VCII+ board has no effect on the digital side, this sounds like a alignment issue or the feed not being centered, what lnb's do you have, what is the stability, I would not get anything without a LO stablity of...

    set up 4dtv 922 then lost the dc light

    Is anything else working? the dish could be mispositioning because of a bad reed, the 4dtv is very sensitive, did you try bumping and adjusting the skew?

    Software Problem with 905 sidecar

    Hmm never had a sidecar... your best bet would be to contact ATS http://www.ats-electronics.com/ or take a look at the 4dtv forum www.4dtvrocks.com to see if anyone can help you there. Good Luck

    Question about Component Cables for HDTV

    I always make my own composite component cables with rg6 like many pro's do, you can buy the heads and pop em on the ends works great and much better than many you buy in the store.

    FTA Satellite

    You may want to go out and grab a 90cm or larger reflector, a diseqc motor is the best choice for a fta setup, you can also look around for a 10' try to get it free, and pop it up for c/ku feeds, though only if you have the room. If you do go with a smaller reflector like a 90cm you can grab...

    Archived from groups: alt.tv.tech.hdtv (More info?) Yes you would need a IT912 or a quali TV to get those, and a big dish since most is on C-band -- tdti1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message was posted via http://www.satelliteguys.us by tdti1

    HBO HD Question

    Archived from groups: alt.tv.tech.hdtv (More info?) To see HBO in the highest quality possible, you would need a big dish, if that is not possible I would think cable would look good, depending on who provides it. Small dish uses to much compression on all there feeds. -- tdti1...
