I don't get it. Why can't the fta dealers TEK2000, TVROSAT, Ricks and others make it on the up and up? Why do they need to sell illegal equipment and steal to make a living? Guess its a form of drug dealing selling dope to the dopes. Usually the drug boys end up burning sooner or later. History shows us piracy always gets shutdown. STUPID STUPID STUPID!
Its best to stay away from anyone who promotes this type of activity. TVROSAT, TEK2000, John Simpson, got some shady deals going on. The sooner he's busted the better for the good c band folk.
Was wondering about something. Maybe some light can be shed about this. I noticed forums like Ricks and TVROSAT post feeds that are scrambled, why? I mean if a feed is scrambled that means you cant watch it, right. Or is it have something to do with pirate activities these guys are into?As to tvrosat, a lot has already been revealed in this thread. Rick Caylor has a checkered history as revealed here: http://www.legitfta.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-23618.html

There's more out there, just plug in a few search terms like Rick Caylor/sonicview to find them. Likewise with Alex Portillo/John Simpson.

Here's more information about TEK2000. This was posted at Rick's. Says he's a Brazilian guy. Could this be the Carlos alias talked about?
"I bought a dish from him. it's now in the garbage can.
Rick Caylor told me I was allowed to voice my displeasure with this guy on this forum.
Don't waste your money. He uses a fake name. His name is not John Simpson.
He's actually a Brazilian guy."

If this is the case BossHogg is still pushing his piracy agenda from a new home base in South America.
It's been exposed that TVROSAT and other fta forums are nothing more but fronts for underground Asian based pirate activities. Seems lately piracy's been getting hit hard by legal means. This includes TVROSAT'S Asian sponsor. The way they're getting their britches in a bunch over demand letters being sent by Nagrastar you know they're dirty as dirt. Warning to all who've been suckered into this form of pirate activity. Your days are getting short. Nagrastar is coming down hard on you with fines. Read about those not too smart folks who've been busted already, and paying the piper for this. https://www.satscams.com/StatementsofCompliance (https://www.satscams.com/StatementsofCompliance)
The only winning move is not to play the pirates game. Go with legal companies such as Rainier Satellite.
Tvrosat's added a Paypal donate button to its site begging for money and ads to support it. That's really sad. Guess the no sales from garbage products can't turn the few measly coins needed for support of the domain name and server space. The FTA pirate magic carpet's going to be rolling up over there really soon.
It's been brought to our attention the owners of TVROSAT been involved in using ILLEGAL methods manipulating search results on GOOGLE to DEFAME Rainier Satellite. We've contacted the legal team with this evidence and it's now under investigation. These perpetrators are walking on thin ice and have more to loose then they realize.

The hogg jerk that runs that tvrorat site needs to go back to school to get an education, seems he can't count. He's saying Rainier has 3 channels? ??? ? Last time I counted Rainier has around 200, with every cable channel anyone can want. See how he tries to spread FALSE PROPAGANDA to the public. More plain and simple stupidity from the tvrorat propaganda rag.Tvrosat's the only site that continues to dish out dirty lies about Rainier. Even satelliteguys had enough common sense to shut up when Rainier got all the channels (egg on their face :o ). The terd that runs Tvrosat has some serious issues.
Looks like TVROSAT, TEK2000 is out of stock of all his products. Blames it on Covid-19 and his Chinese bed partners. Too bad the guy will be going under soon. Its funny watching him keep sticking his fat foot in his mouth bashing Rainier while they keep moving forward. If he only had a brain and worked to promote C band with industry leaders like Rainier he wouldn't today be in this predicament. Karma has a way of of eventually getting the bad apples.Its official Tek2000 is dumping whatever junk he has left and that's it.
Its official Tek2000 is dumping whatever junk he has left and that's it.I feel sorry for the unsuspecting public Tek2000 took for a ride. There's reports of problems for years from those who bought his dishes. He gave the industry a bad name. Best thing to happen is he's out of it.
Posted yesterday at TVROSAT.
"We are completely sold out on all other C band antennas, both solid and mesh and all sizes. Due to the economic paralysis the world is currently facing, thanks to the pandemic (real or imagined or contrived) restrictions, we will not be selling any more antennas in 2021 and possibly never again.
We have not taken this decision lightly, but with container shortages sending shipping costs through the roof, global manufacturing parts shortages and a rural American consumer that has been devastated by job losses and/or small business collapse, we had no other choice. Too bad.
We do have some stock of antenna accessories, such as LNBFs, actuators, switches, posts, etc. We will continue to sell down this inventory, but once it is gone, there will be no more."
Also noticed the once great Skyvision which became Sky Express a few years back went out of business.
That leaves Rainier Satellite as your go to for everything TVRO big dish satellite. Keep up the good work Rainier. Running a business right using US made products paid off for you. :)
Orby TV was banking on the el-cheapos to support them. Those folk are very unpredictable and hop to wherever they can save a buck. Even at $40 bucks a month they charged for the basic package that is too much. Unfortunately to run a successful business it takes money The only way they survived so long (about 2 years) was they were draining some retired cable moguls bank account that had it in for Charlie Ergen at Dish, guess it dried up. I see Eutelsat shutting down their transponders by the end of the month.Speaking of el-cheapos, I see that happy satellite clown from Tvrosat put up video about Orby pissing and moaning about it going away, and why they didn't give away free channels. This guy never supported them and he wonders why Orby went under. The guy must be brain dead or something. Does he really think a business can hang around without paying the bills. You can't pay the bills without revenue. Maybe he should ask his good buddy Tek how it works with his doors closing too.
Even Motorola and Programming Center announced shutdown plans to let subscribers know.
ORBY TV IS DEAD! Its official. From their website. BTW my Rainier sub is going strong. :) Watched Trump's CPAC address yesterday on Newsmax,
Dear Orby TV Customer,
We are sorry to announce that Orby TV has closed its doors, and the Orby TV service has ended. It was an honor to serve you.
Sincerely,
Your friends at Orby TV
I was told that your receiver can't do 4K is going to be a different model than the d9865Whoever told you that information is selling you fake content. There's a firmware upgrade that will be provided by satellite soon for the 9865 that includes H265, HEVC, with symbol rates up to 45000. This upgrade is due to programmers migrating to a newer compression needed to be able to make most efficient use of bandwidth available with the reduction of transponders available with 5G clearing.
Looks like pirates from TVROSAT are getting burned. New hardened ECM's and new scrambling systems are being implemented with c and ku band. No more freebies for those losers, tisk tisk. To top that off with the Chinavirus still hanging in there and runaway inflation, ZERO products are for sale from their loser source Tek2000. Oh well guys guess the day of reckoning has come.Yep his Wuhan suppliers for all his pos junk has put the screws to him bigtime. Give it up Tek the NWO boys killed you without taking a shot.
