    What happened? What birds should I be pointing to?

    A few years ago, from what I can recall, there was a big change from 110/119 & 61.5 to 61.5 72 & 77. I had my installer come in and setup a Dish 1000 and he could only get 61.5 & 72; I knew I lost some channels but just never had the chance to follow up... The kids were not complaining and I...

    Repointed 61.5 to 129, lost HD Locals (NYC)

    I repointed 61.5 to 129 per all the hype, now all the HD Locals (New York City) are gone. Should I have added a 4th dish for 129 rather than repoint?

    Marine internet ISPs?

    You are very right Greg, internet access via Satellite is still not there yet. Do you have a terrestrial solution that you recommend for access coverage on the great lakes and St. Lawrence? I'm assuming that a combination of Satellite TV and terrestrial internet will be the best. Thanks again...

    Marine internet ISPs?

    Hi Greg, thanks for the reply. Answers are as follows: 1. Underway, but can be when the boat has stopped moving if that helps keep the cost down. 2. The solution is to be used in the St. Lawrence, lake Ont. etc. on a fresh water boat. 3. No specific time requirement. Why question the...

    My LNBs are pointed at 110, 119 and 61.5 for Charlie, how much of a change would it be if I did the install myself for D? I would need new receivers and a new switch, anything else?

    DirecTv is looking better and better. :rant: I called in yesterday; the best answer was that I would get the Platinum pack free for three months. I pay for TV, I watch FX all the time, but 10% off for three months is suposed to rectivy the problem. Looks like I am DirecTv bound.

    Harmony 688 Remote?

    I have had Harmony 860 (upstairs) and 1000 (living room) for a long time. The best feature is that my wife can operate the entire entrainment system by pushing one button on the Harmony... the only issue for me has been the amount of time to program the units with my multi-room single receiver...
