    Old receiver disposal ? 721, 508 and 7100

    So, I am clearing out the basement, where I have a 721, a 508 and a 7100. Am I correct that the current "best" procedure for these is to simply take them to the "e-waste" dump (after removing and destroying the smart cards)? ( And, no I don't have the time to mess with them, no need for 100gb...

    Art Mann confirms pickup by AXS TV

    I asked Art Mann on twitter if he was going to be part of AXS TV (the merger of HDnet, Anshutz Entertainment Group (LA Staples Center, etc) and Ryan Seacrest) and he just said:

    SF Bay Area - KCSM-HD (060-00)_made available

    And whenever the uplink PC is restored, remember to remove the "PBS" designation, since it is an Indepedent Public TV Channel (like KCET).

    STS-134 FInal Flight of Shuttle Endeavour

    I never thought HD-Net could find someone more annoying to host the Shuttle Launch shows than that guy, but they did ! :eek: I suppose it is a tradition that they needed to uphold...

    From the Edge with Peter Lik

    Okay, my default channel is Weather Channel HD, since you never know when something interesting pops up, and there is never anything that makes me turn the channel (even the commercials seem innocuous). Every so often they show the long haired guy and the black guy who chase tornados -...

    Fox Soccer Channel & Fuel TV now in AT120Plus

    (There is no previous thread, even though the information can be found buried in other threads.) Dish Network's most basic package is "America's Top 120" and they have had a version called "America's Top 120 Plus" which adds your local Regional Sports Network. Presumably as part of the recent...

    South Park resumes tonight

    Should be interesting, resuming several months after a two-parter where Comedy Central blocked visual depiction of M (don't what to cause any problems for Satellite Guys by using any other than "M"), followed by the second half, where Comedy Central bleeped out several minutes of dialogue about...

    Sudden charge for locals ??

    This is a different variation on what another member reported. My basic package includes locals and I have not had a separate charge for them for years. Today, I checked my Dish Network account online and I noticed my monthly bill had gone up due to: suddenly appearing in my monthly...

    Regional PBS Channels

    This is new in the list of programming available in online account maintenance (in the same section where you can add superstations): It is greyed out (either because I do not live in those states, or because it is not yet available). Perhaps this has something to do with the 30 PBS channels...

    How to keep channels from charging as much as they want ??

    Everyone has some channel or channels that they require a cable or satellite system to provide. " I must have the ___ channel or I will go somewhere else. " Given that, what can possibly keep the channels from charging as much as they like ? Every time that a very very popular channels comes...

    RSS flakey

    Some RSS feeds that worked fine before have been flakey lately, missing some changes. Lastpost has never worked. It might actually be better if you turned off RSS altogether, because then we could use external RSS sites that track changes. Those do not work if there is an RSS feed on...

    RSS feed problem

    The option "lastpost" for external.php is not working. It should give the result of listing all new posts, rather than just new threads. Syntax: http://www.satelliteguys.us/external.php?lastpost=true&forumids=133&type=rss2 Thanks for looking into this !

    Need Frontpage News RSS Feed please

    Hello, I am finding RSS to be handy during periods when I am very busy with work and/or personal tasks - since I can just scan to see what is going on. The Uplink Center Forum RSS Feed is particularly helpful since it only includes Digiblur's original post, and none of the endless " Why is...

    RSS not working for Pub in Google Reader

    I am trying out shifting from open web pages to using RSS in Google Reader. All of my usual SatelliteGuys Forums added just fine, except the Pub: Note that I was logged into both Google Reader and SatelliteGuys at the time, so that is not the issue.
