    Skipping Commerials - a viewpoint

    I find it a sad statement on our society that the first impulse is to go to the courts to resolve issues! This could be solved by the networks by simply encrypting their codes that signal the local stations for beginning and end of commercial times. If you notice this is only being done on the...

    Tweak 1000.2

    82 on 119 I believe the main thing I corrected was the mast. The installer mounted it to a 6x6 post on my deck and assumed it was plumb. I checked and it was not, plumbed it, then tweaked the other settings! It still amazes me that just a 1/32" can make so much difference!

    Tweak 1000.2

    After finally getting a working 722 installed on Friday with a 1000.2 dish, the installer commented after doing the check switch that getting over a 60 reading on the signal meters was a thing of the past. 110=50's, 119=50's, 129=low 20's On Saturday I marked all settings on the dish with a...
