New Version 2 Viewsat Ultra 2000 In Stalk

Viewtech Inc. has recently imported a NEW VERSION 2 ULTRA and is now available to purchase at Sky High Electronics. This version is currently for sale in Canada. Viewsat is now using a higher quality Samsung tuner and have made other improvements to the internal hardware. Distributors, Dealers, and Consumers please take note to the external changes so that these new Ultras are not confused with clones.

Please take note of the NEW Version 2 ULTRA seen below. You will notice that the power switch is positioned horizontally. There are also other noticeable changes to the rear panel. The side panel has changed as well.

The VIEWSAT ULTRA is best selling Free To Air Receiver. Viewsat added a faster processor (200 MHz), double the memory of the Xtreme (32 Mb SD RAM), and a USB communications port for easy data updates. Now you can use your USB flash drive to update your receiver. The new universal remote that comes with this unit is awesome. If that's not enough, wait until you see the new colorful Graphic User Interface. This is by far the best FTA STB the market has ever seen.

Next Gneration Anywhere Remote








The Next Generation Anywhere Remote is unlike anything else on the market. It allows you to control all your equipment from anywhere in your home, up to 100 feet using your current remote. Unlike other bulky remote extenders that attach to the front of a remote, or IR to RF base stations, this one fits in the battery compartment. Small and unobtrusive, you will never know it's there. It doesn't matter where you are in your home; in the living room with the equipment, in the master bedroom, or outside, you have total control. Installation could not be easier, simply remove one of the batteries from your remote and replace it with the RF transmitter battery, hook up the receiver base, attach the IR emitter and you are done. You now have a remote that does both IR and RF for a fraction of the cost of other RF systems. With the Next Generation Remote Extender you will never miss a movie or sporting event from anywhere in your house. Simply wire two TV’s anywhere in the house using RG6 cable connecting one television from input TV IN and the other to output TV Out. Bring your remote with you to the other room without the receiver and now your able to change channels from anywhere in the house. Now you can watch the end of a movie in the comforts of your bedroom and be able to save money at the same time. There is no need to buy additional satellite receivers if you only use one TV at a time. Buy your Next Generation Anywhere Remote only at Sky High Eectronics

Note
Two RF kits, with different frequencies, are required for two separate remote controls to be used at two different component locations without interference. If you have any questions are Sky High sales team is waiting by to answer them.

Maximize your set up with a 22KHz switch

With so many different switches on the market today it can get confusing for a lot of people entering this hobby. One switch that always gets left behind is the 22 KHz switch. This switch has many uses and can be integrated into complex set ups. The 22 KHz switch can replace a Diseqc switch (Diagram 1) or can be used to multiply the existing ports on your Diseqc switch (Diagram 2).






This diagram shows a 22 KHz switch taking the place of a Diseqc Switch. 2 Satellites to 1 Receiver. Only works with Standard LNB not Universal.




This diagram shows a 4x1 Diseqc switch being converted to a 5 x1 Diseqc switch using a 22 KHz switch.

The Satellte Diplexer: A Semless Solution

Q :I Just purchased an FTA receiver and I will like to stay with my local cable network/antenna service?

A: The Satellite Diplexer: A Seamless Solution! Satellite programming may not offer local network or independent TV channels in your particular area. Fact of the matter, there is a large portion of rural America that is not covered. The solution is actually quite simple: capture those signals with either an off-air (uhf/vhf) antenna or cable TV feed and add them to your channel line-up.

You can run two lines: one line from your satellite dish and the other line from your local channel source OR you can use two signal diplexers and run both signals down ONE coaxial cable line SIMULTANEOUSLY (Diagram 1). One diplexer is used outside to combine the two separate signals (one signal from the satellite dish and another signal from either an off-air TV antenna or cable TV feed). A second diplexer is used inside to separate the combined signals before they enter your satellite receiver (Diagram 3). Satellite diplexers eliminate the need for extra wiring thereby reducing the cost of labor and installation materials necessary to run two coaxial lines.
