    I think the 4DTV section was dead. Every time a question about 4DTV was asked, a comparison to "Pizza" or in other words "Pizza Bashing" occurred.

    I see that Direct & Dish are alive & strong and they don't trash other forums.

    To me, although I'm a fairly new member, was almost afraid to ask or comment in the 4DTV section anymore in fear it would lead to Pizza Bashing.

    Plus I see more activity in the C-Band section anyway.

    One of the last threads in the 4d section was about the old HD decoder for C-Band and it turned into a Pizza Bashing contest.

    So all I've done is to save this link to my Toolbar and deleted the 4DTV link.

    I am pretty sure that car websites have Fords leaking into the Chevy area and vice versa and along with who is "better"!

    We just need to be civilized about it!

    When it went separate, I worried that some posts which were more general C-band/hardware related, got lost in the 4D department.
    So, I tried to read both, to learn as much as possible.

    Today, there's not much going on.
    So, both pay-service HITS, and FTA on Digicipher hardware, should integrate nicely with C-band talk.
    In fact, the combining may even help the interest in Digicipher equipment; never know! -


    OH, and making the topics of every thread more CLEAR, is always helpful too!
    (getting to be one of my pet peeves: meaningless thread titles! )
    no, not this one - all of 'em!
    very well put
    Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet
    Two 6 foot Fortec dish with GeoSatPro dual C-Band LNB "ghetto moved" to various C-Band satellites

    This is sad that pressure from outside sources caused this. I hope those who who pushed so much for this are happy.
    yep thats what it was. Charlie gave Scott a buck and said "I dont want a 4DTV area here anymore"......

    Seriously? Put down the kool aid. As I posted before back in the spring it was talked about merging the 2 forums back together due to threads being put in the wrong area and also 4DTV isnt what it was back 2 years ago when the forum was split off. But Scott said lets wait because there were still changes going on with 4DTV. Now there hasnt been anything new honestly programming wise (either adding or removing) and its been in a lull. So it looks like Scott merged them back. As anole said maybe it would generate some more interest.

    But like usual you blame everything else on "outside sources" and "DBS"
