Is there a FTA satellite receiver to record television like TiVo?

We have a Coolsat receiver, but we are thinking sonicview. He tried to find a recording feature (I think it is called DVR), but have not found any luck. Thanks for any help.

Several receptors FTA have DVR, Visionsat IV200 PVR PLUS (Recommended), Diamond 9000 HD PVR receiver Relook 400 Linux. You should try to learn about each of these to see which is best for you.

Can anyone tell me about the installation of NAFTA? Price? Brand? Total investment?

Looking to get into FTA as an alternative to cable. I see a lot of different receivers in the market and prices are all over the place. Can anyone give me some tips on good quality gear, and how should pay for all this? Can I use more than DirecTV or Dish Network dishes and LNB's to save money? The location is very coherent channel? Are there vendors to stay away from?

FTA is a fascinating hobby, but I warn against the cable replacement. TLC programming tends to be very specific (language foreign) or no programming broadcast (feeds). There are some good options for sports though. No, DirecTV or DN dishes or LNBs will not work. Satellite broadcasting NAFTA in a lower power of these satellites DBS, so you'll need at least a 4 foot dish. You should also consider as an engine of channels are distributed in the arch. And the channels are not consistent. is turned on and off and move. Some of the most trusted brands in the receivers Fortec, Pansat. You can get a decent (engine configuration, antenna, receiver) for around $ 300. http://www.sadoun.com is a trusted retailer

I am switching back to DIRECTV-can I use my old Hughes DVR to record?

3 years ago I had a non HD Hughes DVR-I believe it is called a series 2. It has 40 hours of non HD record time. I upgraded to an 80 hr HD DVR for a year-and when DIRECTV tried their classic-and illegal-practice of charging a monthly lease fee for a DVR that they made me buy-I told them -well you can guess-and when they refunded my purchase price I THEN returned the DVR and went back to Commiecast for a year. Commiecast almost doubled price so now I’m returning to DIRECTV-without the HD OR DVR. I still have a 5 LNB dish and I’m wondering if I can use the old Hughes to just record. I realize they will supply me with a receiver/tuner only-I don’t see why I can’t somehow use the old recorder. Somewhere I read that DIRECTV can supply me with a card that will make it work? Can someone enlighten me or give me a URL that explains this stuff? I DON’T TRUST DIRECTV (or Commiecast) as far as I can throw them.

Good question. I’m wanting to bet you can, but I was going to say you might need a card for it, when I saw your comment.

Come to think of it, doesn’t the new DirectDeceive box have a coax output for a second TV? The output would already be decoded, and may work.

I will have to ask my friend if you can program the standard box to change channels at given times, If you can program the Hughes to record at different times on the same channel, it might work that way without a card.

Of course, you could always do it manually, as long as the Hughes will accept the filtered feed without a new card.

Here is DirectDeceive customer service technical support, they claim to answer emails in 24 hours, of course I claim to have made love to over 5,000 women.

By the way, I can throw a CommieCast box pretty dad-burned far, it’s very stress relieving.

hey brothers (Mike and the rule b) satellite Bev?

I still have 82% signal strength, as I said before I'm missing channels. channels missing, s transponder has 0% percent strength.why is that?? please tell me if you know one thing ….. for example, 82 satellites with 6 channels are all derived different transponders?? then the 82% signal strength I have … means nothing right? so please suggest me if I'm bigger plate will give strength for the transponder perticular??? please advice me.

So you do get some channels on Sat 82, which means it is in the SAT right. but those who are not receiving the signal is 0%. I think he should at least have something coming for a signal strength. As I said yesterday, any time I've seen of the signal 0% was with a bad connection though some channels come in (plug-unscrew itself and look closely). I'm still stuck 0% on that yet, what if you changed both dishes and LNBs in the cables and then to their recipients. Once you remove everything then the next step is to go to a larger dish. I can tell you that some Bell customers in British Columbia requires a 36 "dish Sat.82 because the signal is not as strong as Sat 91 at the West Coast or the coast East (Newfoundland). Furthermore, the cable should be RG6 against RG59. 18VDC measure could probably even out in the LNB. I do not know what else to say Devin, would be good to know if people around you have this setting as suggested rule. Good luck, again!

What’s up with the FTA recivers?

okay so all of the viewsat coolsat pansat and all of the other fta recivers are messed up and i was just wondering is the N3 files for Viewsat and those things or are we gonna have to buy a new reciever??

If you want to receive that N3 programming, you should get a Dish or Bell TV receive and subscription.

Those receivers are messed up because people were stealing TV with them, and the providers changed to N3 to thwart that to some degree.

You won’t need a new receiver to legally receive programming, just a Ku dish to aim to the legal FTA satellites.
