The Traxis DBS-4550 Receiver with Blind Search

The new Traxis DBS4550 is the next generation of Blind Search receivers. Once again a vertiable unknown comes up with a stellar fta receiver with options found on many higher priced units. The Traxis 4550 has many strong features such as a massive 6000 channel memory and a new hyper fast internal processor. An easy to use On Screen Display takes all the guess work out of customizing your viewing environment. A handy feature to have with this new unit is the channel backup. Have you ever spent hours setting up your guides and favorite channel and suddenly lose them when you apply a new fta patch or fix to the receiver? This will never happen with the new Traxis model. We found this option extremely handy for those who get their units programmed by someone other than themselves and subsequently found themselves painstakenly resetting up all the channels again.

Not Receiving Certain HD ChannelsHello, I'm getting a "Searching for satellite signal... (771)" on several HD channels, using the AU9 Slimline Dish.

H21-200 Receiver QuestionI have an extra HD receiver and want to upgrade my old Hughs SD receiver in my 5th wheel. I know I can use the HD receiver with the non HD Kingdom. My question is - do I need to use the B-Band Converter since it is not HD?

HoustonPBS 8.1 Letterbox sometimes/sometimes notAnyone have any contacts at KUHT in Houston? On the OTA HD channel (not one of the SD subchannels) they seem to broadcast some programs in 16:9 and some letterbox 4:3 (basically pillarbox + letterbox). Not really a problem because my 622 can zoom it, but it makes me wonder why? Laziness?
