    How things have changed

    My Sony's seem to recognize a lot of different STBs. I think it comes down to whether the STB advertises it and the TV is setup to display it.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Dish 'n Fish. Honestly, Ergan made a mistake with 5G. He should have sought 5 fathoms below the sea.

    BTW, 8 lbs. and it’s on our diet. Just no rice or potatoes with it.

    Smoking Meat?

    About 12 hours in to an about 19 hour cook. 210. Lump, pecan and apple. Snaked it overnight. Currently 169 internally, coming out of the plateau. Trying an experiment. SWMBO insisted. It’s a Max Miller idea, modified. Coat in Lawrey’s and then a thin coat of molasses. After four hours...

    How did USB take over the world?

    I'm not sure what pre-1980s computers has to do with USB. Ribbon cables weren't much used in serial communications. By the way, the DB9 connector didn't become popular until somewhere into the PC compatible era (perhaps the IBM PC AT?). The DB25 was used instead for serial protocols like...

    Are these numbers just for Vizio TV's ?

    Whats for breakfast?

    Sausage, bacon, eggs over easy, buttermilk biscuits* cooked in the air fryer... OJ (1 EA except eggs) * 340° for 6 minutes, topped with a little butter at 6 minute mark, cooked 2 more minutes. I think the extra 2 minutes were not needed as they were already getting golden brown.

    NICE AND EASY: Fix grey screen on Genie Mini Client

    Good for you. You decided to add DIRECTV to another room in your house. You ran the cable, you picked up a new Genie Mini Client from Solid Signal, you connected it, plugged it in, and… Solid Grey Screen. Well that’s not what you were shooting for, now was it? Let’s go through the steps you...

    What's going on with Elevate by Orby / Orby TV?

    It seems like the Orby TV forum is now closed. There was a bit of fanfare a year ago about "Elevate by Orby" launching. (Not sure if I can link to the press release) Since then there hasn't been a peep or a change to the websites. But somebody's paying to keep that TP live. Late last year a...

    A more technical look at what a cell booster does

    Several years ago, I put out a simple article called “What is a cell booster?” I’d seen a lot of diagrams like this one: and they did a pretty good job of showing the process, but I thought it also deserved a bit of an explanation in words. Google still understands words better than pictures...

    How did USB take over the world?

    It’s everywhere. It’s on your PC. You’ll find it on your phone (at least, on one side of the cable.) It’s even used as a connector to power things like antenna amplifiers. USB is, quite literally, everywhere. Why? How? So many things about USB seem like an abomination and yet, it’s impossible to...

    Can you use 18" actuator on a 10ft dish if you only need to access 0°W - 100°W?

    That's a great idea for manually moving a polar mount dish that has a broken or missing actuator. Thanks for sharing! :)

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    But with Red Lobster in bankruptcy, the option is there for Dish to absorb them like they did with Blockbuster. Fried shrimp and Dish supplied media just go hand in hand. ;) And anyone that suggests Dish doesn't have the liquidity to absorb Red Lobster or that it is a different type of...

    Auto Racing 2024

    Saw the highlights. There were a lot of them. Too bad for Magnusson, looked like he was Senna out there in the rain, and could have lapped the entire field if it kept raining.

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 6/5/2024

    D9S could serve as a temporary band aid if T16 were to catastrophically fail. The more long term solution to such a failure would be to move D8 back to 101W. When D8's license was extended to June 2025, DirecTV said that they expected to file another extension in 2025, and expect that D8...
