I was mad because here in Pittsburgh all the games were in HD. Until the Pitt game came on then the whole thing was in SD (Both Thursday and Saturday). As soon as it was over then it was back to HD. I don't know what was up with that but KDKA (Pittsburgh's CBS station) blew it in my opinion.

What is the best way to get international sports? I am really interested in watching Rugby!

I am watching the Ryder Cup on NBC HD but every 10 minutes or so the signal gets all goofy. Really ruins it for me. I am trying to determine if this is something that is going on with NBC's signal. My local station (WPXI in Pittsburgh) or on my cable system. Can someone watching this OTA...

New color wheel was $135. Dealer told me Samsung has improved the part and the replacement should last longer. $180 for labor to install. Not too bad.

Dumb question? ATSC is analog right? I remember as a kid we once got channels from Florida. (I lived North of Pittsburgh) If I remember right they lasted for a while. They were not clear but you could watch them. Never thought much about it until I stumbled on these web sites about guys...

This issue got me thinking. Who runs/owns the satellites up there? Are the mostly US companies? Could the government prevent/shutdown stations if the satellite wasn't a US based company?

It sounds like the company that was showing the illegal material also ran this station

In general, how do you clean your HD screens? Mine is getting dusty and a few finger marks from a toddler we watched once.

Thanks! Just wanted to make sure I was reading the chart right.

Just want to make sure I am reading the charts right. Could someone verify that ESNE TV on SatMex 5 on tp17 12024 H is fta? I notice that some channels don't have the red F but everything else looks to like it should be FTA. Am I right or am I reading the chart wrong.

How long do these signals last? A while, a few minutes, a few seconds?
