    I know how frustrating it is, but don't give up, eventually you will hit the sweet spot. I was going to throw in the towel. It took me most of the summer to do it, but when I hit it all of the S2s came in. As I said, the only one I have trouble with is ESPN. I know all of the RTVs are repeats, but I like them because of the different time zones. Can't watch something on the Eastern channels, watch it when you can on on the central, mountain and western channels.

    I used to rely on LyngSat a lot. Since they are located in Europe they rely on us for updates. One of the main contributers from the US died last year and that hasn't helped. I have been using Sat Hints recently and have been quite happy, check them out at:
