IMPORTANT INSTALLATION TIP

All free to air satellite receivers come with a basic 4x1 diseqc switch either supplied for free by the product manufacture or added to the order by GOsatellite. The disecq switch is a necessary part of a free to air installation if the satellite dish you are connecting to has 2, 3, or 4 LNB’s. The unfortunate problem is the cheap quality of the free diseqc switch that’s included with most FTA receivers. The life expectancy of the free disecq switch is typically less than 1 year.

See connection diagram below and the benefits of a high quality switch.

If you can stretch your budget by $15 we highly recommend that you include the heavy duty Chieta 4x1 diseqc switch. The Chieta is the best switch on the market with a low insertion loss of only 1.5db which will offer better signal and picture quality (basic switches are 6db of signal loss!) The Chieta is nickel metal cast plated, designed for indoor or outdoor installation and will combine 4 satellites to one digital FTA receiver. Long-term is make sense to spend a few extra dollars more now to have a completely functional FTA satellite system for years to come. All professional installers swear by the quality and performance of the Chieta switch. For them it's simple, go to a customers house, do the installation, and they will not have to worry again about a failing switch or loss of signal or picture quality. Do the install right the first time and do it once.

Interesting Facts You Should Know About

What is Wide Screen or 16x9?
The wide-screen picture format is intended to provide a more realistic and compelling visual presentation. A wide-screen display is commonly referred to as a "16 x 9" format, meaning that the picture is 16 arbitrary units wide by nine units high. By contrast, a conventional display is 4 units wide by 3 units high, or "4 x 3." Thus, the 16 x 9 display provides a wider image area that more closely matches the relative dimensions, or aspect ratio, of the cinema.

When will the Digital TV transition be complete?
TV stations serving all markets in the United States and Canada are airing digital television programming today, although most will continue to provide analog programming through February 17, 2009. At that point, full-power TV stations will cease broadcasting on their current analog channels, and the spectrum they use for analog broadcasting will be reclaimed and put to other uses.

What size of hard drive should I get?
The Sonicview HD 8000 is hard drive ready when you purchase it as each customer has a specific recording needs. Below are the most popular hard drive sizes with an approximate amount of recording you can expect. It's always wise to get a hard drive one size larger than you are considering so you can save some favourite shows and movies to playback later when nothing is on.

PVR / DVR Hard Drive Upgrade for FTA Receivers

Most free to air receivers have an option that allows you to record by adding an external PVR / DVR hard drive. It connects through the USB port on the receiver. In the FTA receivers on-screen menu you can program the FTA receiver to record a channel when you are away to watch later or you can record a live channel. Below are the most popular hard drive sizes based on recording capacity.
