Arg! Holes being dug in peoples front yards on my street and it ain't no Fios! Has to do with the Clearwater water project. Oh and damn this smoke!

Well right off of my street going right under the the cable lines are some little red flags in the ground, sadly they say Knology. I guess they are going to patch up the holes in few places they aren't in yet in my neighborhood which is right at the edge of the city limits. Also a couple...

I've seen the line when watching analog channels on my pc, because the standard is meant for tvs that over-scan you will see things that you shouldn't. Don't replace your box, don't replace your cable, don't pass go and don't collect 200$

That only counts for OTA, cable can whatever they want.

There are alot of orange flags and orange paint in the intersection of Lakeview and Highland. Thats only 800ft from my street! Our telephone lines are on the pole above ground so chances are thats where the fiber will be. Is It quicker to get that going than underground? If so I'll probably be...

Thats 5 miles north of me, the Verizon building is 2 miles away. Maybe I will have FIOS by the end of the year? Will they use GPON?

It's not like the analog signals are gone (yet), hook the cable up to the analog input on your tv until the problem is fixed.

I got over 200 miles before with a small uhf directional antenna that came with the hdtv wonder. I had it sitting on a plastic lawn chair in my back yard about 3ft off the ground.

Check out Idiocracy, They have dishes all over the White House. There were some that looked like primestar dishes, and c band dishes all aimed wrong.

Are the network signals anywhere near strong enough to be gotten with a 40x30 minibud?

Also I've been thinking, Here in Clearwater around 2002 I think when GTE turned into Verizon(was GTE both a cable company and the phone?), they put up a huge multi satellite 50ft elliptical cband dish. Maybe Verizon and Knology share the same building because it used to be the same company and...

We used to go to eat there more back when it was called Homer's, nothing actually changed when the name changed except we just got tired of gas and stomach aches when we ate too much. :o I don't know really about the other places because I haven't been out there in a while and if I had I...

Thats great! I am between S. Missouri Ave. and S. Highland Ave. does that count as North Pinellas? Did they give any information about when? It is very annoying to get excited about something that won't happen for another year, I've already waited two.

The internet in my area just went out a few minutes ago: 1:57 - 1:59 Is this a sign of an upgrade or am I just being too hopeful? Is 2 minutes even enough time to do something like that?

Mosquito Noise, it's really annoying stuff.
