New member Username: Dishnet06Post Number: 4 Registered: May-06 | Please can you recommend good FTA receiver to buy. I have my own super dish, dish 500 dishes and one DP301 (dish net receiver) in my home. If you have any idea how to use exiting ones, Please let me know. If I can use both dishes with out exiting DP301 receiver, that is also fine. Please suggest me which one and where I have to buy receiver? Sorry for giving trouble, thanks for help. Lk commant Please |

Read these posts (another link inside this thread should be read too) on mixing DN equipment with FTA equipment. https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/home-video/223672.html |
New member Username: Alon8619Post Number: 2 Registered: May-06 | HI i would really appreciate it if someone could help me.I am really new at this and heard about the viewsat extreme fta receiver.I would like to know how to get it to have all the dishnetwork channels.I heard that this is possible but i just dont know how to do it.I subscribe to dishnetwork currently and have the 500 dish on the roof.Could i just cancel the service but hook up the viewsat receievers up and then what?Anyways the help would be much appreciative.After giving thousands of dollars to echostar i would like to get some value in return.I mean for heaven sakes i pay 85 dollars a month and get no premium channels they charge me $30 a month for a foreign channel which is atrocious. |
New member Username: Dishnet06Post Number: 7 Registered: May-06 | Thanks Tyler. I decided to buy 3500sd. Can you tell me is it work for dish 500 TWIN legacy LNBS.right now i have Super dish( 110,119,121) and dish 500 twin legacy(110,119). either one can i use Please? |
Silver Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 254 Registered: Feb-06 | I don't believe that Legacy lnbs will work with Pansats. They will with cools@ and viewsats. It was in the link in the thread I sent you. You should re-read it This one here... https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/home-video/212683.html |

Bronze Member Username: AjdarwinPost Number: 14 Registered: May-06 | IF you are using lnb's that are not combined, they should work with any FTA receiver. There are different types of lnbs, and Dish went to a combined dual lnb later in the 500 series. If you have individual lnbs, they should work. If combined likely not. The output is already combined for the two lnbs. That is what I have found to be the case. If anyone else knows anything more, I would like to hear. It would make my would easiere the more I know. |
Bronze Member Username: AjdarwinPost Number: 15 Registered: May-06 | I just realized you may get confused by what I meant concerning combined lnb's. On Dish 500's initially you had two individual lnbs, one for each satellite. They could have either one or two outputs. Later Dish 500's had a combined lnb which physically put these two lnbs together. A few were still seperate lnbs and required a combiner to work, while later ones had the combiner built in them as part of the device. It is the latter that generally don't work. As long as they were the individual lnbs, whether they were seperate or together, they should work fine with any FTA receiver. Sorry if I confused anyone. |

Bronze Member Username: Dafee99Post Number: 41 Registered: Apr-06 | this is from dsstester website, newbie section-- pardon moi que les pictures are not included.. DISH-LNB'S-IRD Set up I will start posting different set ups in this thread IMPORTANT. 1- Always turn off( at back panel switch or unplug it from power outlet) your IRD before you make any connection. DiseqC and 22 khz switches are sensitive to short outs and power surges. 2- Start connections from LNB's to the receiver. LNB's-switches-inline amplifiers if required( > 100 ft)-receiver. 3- Use appropriated connectors and tools. This will reduce voltage drops and signal attenuation 4- Fasten all connector with a wrench if possible. We will use only one lnb output for these two options if you lnb is dual Remember a-single-one head and one output b-dual- one head and two outputs c-twin-two heads and 2 or 4 outputs d-triple-three heads and 2 or 4 outputs 1- First Picture. Two DTV 18" Round Dish or another single dish w/ single or dual lnb(lnb must be circular polarization). One pointing 119 and one 110 Connect 119 to Sat 1 and 110 to Sat 2 Antenna set UP ECHO 7(119) Lnb type-standard lo freq-11250 22khz-Off diseqC-1 lnb power-ON (pansat X fixes doesnt required this) Positioner-disable ECHO6,8(110) lnB type-Standard lo freq-11250 22khz-OFF diseqC-2 Lnb power-ON Positioner disable 2- Picture. Four DTV 18" or similar single dish with circular polarization lnb for DN 110-119-61.5(or 148 West Coast) and BEV 91 . Connect 61,5 to SAT 3 and 91 to SAT 4. ECHO 7-same as above ECHO6,8-same as above ECHO 3(61.5) or ECHO1,2(148). All the same but diseqC-#3 Nimiq 1(91). Same but diseqC-#4 You can choose only three sats and let one DiseqC input open. You can also pick four sats as you whick DISH 500 Pro Set up 1- PICTURE 1 is the called DIsh 500 Pro black label. This WORKS with FTA receivers. 2- PICTURE 2. This Dish 500 DOESNT WORK W/ FTA receivers 3- PICTURE 3. It shows the two types of LNB's. First one WONT WORK. Second WILL WORK. 4- PICTURE 4. Installation one Dish 500 Pro and one or two receivers. It will work with the following set up. Go to antenna set up and right arrow on ECHO7 and ECHO 6,8, then OK and in ECHO 7(119) set lnb type-Standard Loq freq- 11250 22khz-OFF DiseqC-Tone A or #1 Lnb power(if apply)-ON Positioner-Disable in ECHO 6,8(110) same as above but DiseqC-Tone B or #2 Now you need to go to MENU and scroll down to TP/Edit and edit ECHO 7 and ECHO 6,8 Tps. You need to change all Horizontal polarity to Vertical due to the fact that Dish Pro uses stacked technology(bandstacking scheme the IF frequency of the horizontal block is shifted upwards to vertical) They will need to be edited for example( just go to Menu-Installaytion-Tp/edit and set all to V) then subtract all horiz. transps. frequencies from 25600. enter result as your new transp freq. (IE. on sat 119 transp 6 is 12297h. doing the subtraction, you get 13303. So change transp 6 to 13303). This is needed because dishpro LNB's use an oscillator that runs at 25600mhz. this is mixed with the horizontal transp freqs and new freqs are generated. Edited tps will be as follow. 1=12224,V,20000 2=13361,V,20000 3=12253,V,20000 4=13332,V,20000 5=12282,V,20000 6=13303,V,20000 7=12311,V,20000 8=13274,V,20000 9=12341,V,20000 10=13245,V,20000 11=12370,V,20000 12=13216,V,20000 13=12399,V,20000 14=13186,V,20000 15=12428,V,20000 16=13157,V,20000 17=12457,V,20000 18=13128,V,20000 19=12486,V,20000 20=13099,V,20000 21=12516,V,20000 22=13070,V,20000 23=12545,V,20000 24=13041,V,20000 25=12574,V,20000 26=13012,V,20000 27=12603,V,20000 28=12982,V,20000 29=12632,V,20000 30=12953,V,20000 31=12661,V,20000 32=12924,V,20000 Of course you do not need to edit a horizontal Tp if it doesnt exist in a sat.(I.E 119 has 21 tps only, so you must edit 12239(2), 12268(4), 12297(6), 12325(8), 12355(10), 12384(12), 12414(14), 12443(16), 12472(18), 12501(20) This will work for DN 61.5-110-119-148 and BEV 82, 91 and any Dish Pro Lnb. You can use a Dish 500 Pro to get BEV 82(nimiq2) and 91(nimiq1) After editing transponders you can scan your sats. -It is easier just to load a DishPro channel list with gtool. -You can open any channel list (no dish pro modified) with gtool, edit tps as shown above and then load new modified list.

Go to Post#17 Attached Thumbnails Switches that WILL NOT WORK with FTA IRDs for switching sats Dn Sw21, Sw21x, Sw42, Sw44, Sw64 Attached Thumbnails FTA working switches FTA receivers are Diseqc, 22khz and 12V switching complaints. Most of the FTA receivers manufactured for North America, do not have the 12volt switching option. 12v switching must be close to the receiver, so you will need to run two cable to inside the house.For example Fortec Lifetime 03-04 does it. I prefer 22khz switching. They are more reliable. DiseqC switches work as well, but it depend the manufacturer and internal parts. I will recommend -TOKYPSAT -JETCOM -STarSat -Perfect Vision -OLD Pansat ( the ones with a weather proof plastic enclosure) - Lastest PANSATs 4X1 I have bought work perfect I wont recommend -Spacelab -New Pansat -DMS. Some peeps have reported they work but i have a bad experiences. these bad ones work better when they are close to the receivers. I prefer switches as close as posible to your IRD and no longer than 75 feet. Eventhough manufacturers specify up to 100 ft. 1- Picture#1.

Bronze Member Username: Dafee99Post Number: 42 Registered: Apr-06 | this was there too-- hope it helps... DTV Dish Phase III OK you can use DTV phase III dish for FTA and get ECHO6,8 and Nimiq 91 but you wont get tps 6,8,10,12,14 on 110 due to the built in sat C combiner. You will get 110 with sat B (right front view) and 91 w/ SAT A ( left front view). SAT C (middle) is useless. The Phase3 comes with a molded triple-LNB with an integral combiner/switch. The combiner places the 3 DirecTV transponders on 110 (28, 30, 32) onto what appears to be transponders 8, 10 and 12 on 119 (in actuality, the Sat-C LNB has a non-standard LO frequency, which makes the tp's appear to be relocated). This makes them available to the IRD along with the DirecTV transponders already on 119 (tp's 22 thru 32). So, a Phase3 dish delivers the normal 32 transponders from Sat-A (normally, 101) until it receives the 22kHz tone from the IRD, when it sends the 3 tp's from Sat-C (usually 110) on top of the feed from Sat-B (usually, 119). The combiner screws up tp's 6 and 14 as well. The end result is that the Sat-B feed loses transponders 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14. Tps 6,8,10 on 110 are spotbeams. If you can accept missing these 5 tps, then ENJOY Set 110 to 22KHz-ON and Nimiq 91 to 22Khz-OFF I recommend you to point the SAT B to 110 and using the skew calculation method from my previous post get 91 (counter clock front view in most US areas and clockwise west coast) Another advantage of this set up is that you can buy another DTV dual lnb, then tie this lnb to the SATB(110 lnb) with tie wraps(put a of wood 3/8 to 1/2" within) and combine 119-110-91 with a 2X1 or 4X1 diseqC switch Connect Sat1 from diseqc to 119 lnb, then Sat2 to DTV Phse III lnb. then set 119- 22KHZ-OFF, diseqc#1 110-22KHZ-ON, diseqc#2 91- 22KHZ-OFF, diseqc$2 Read this thread and Read Xray post Attached Thumbnails gzzz, i wonder who dss man is |
