I always wanted to do this!
Up until recently, old BSB D-MAC satellite receivers couldn’t be used for anything. But all that has changed thanks to some sterling work from Philip Heron, the developer of hacktv. For this, I’m playing back [ Ссылка ] as it’s ideal for this test. Many thanks to “Sticky tape ‘n’ rust” for the upload.
This wasn’t all plain sailing. While testing the BSB receiver for the first time, it let out an almighty bang but kept running. Further investigation showed that a filter capacitor in the power supply had failed.
The white sparklies in the picture were due to a bug in the HackRF firmware and have since been resolved by compiling and flashing the latest version.
