    Great Falls paper: Fox on KLMN full-time

    Even as I watch RetroJams this morning on KLMN, I read this article in the Great Falls Tribune: http://www.gftribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070505/NEWS01/705050302 "FOX programming abruptly shifted at midnight this morning (May 5) from KTGF-16 in Great Falls to KLMN-26." ..."A...

    How much does everyones dish go out?

    During really heavy rain, for a few minutes - 2-3 times a year. During heavy snow - 2-3 times every 5 years.

    Anyone with the multi-sport package??

    As I always say, true in spirit but not actually correct. Arena football, minor league hockey, and (crossing fingers) MLB Spring Training games are just three examples of pro sports you get in the Dish Multi Sports Package. This is where I used to cut and past my long-as-your-arm list of what...

    Superstations

    As long as you really mean the half-hour shows and not the games. WSBK is supposed to be completely shut out of Red Sox games this year. :(

    America One Television

    Thanks for the AO tip! I think it's a great network to have.

    sports channels on AT120 package

    Since you mentioned TBS as part of AT60, I think you ought to add WGN as a "lots of sports" station in AT120.

    Dish Has ‘Free Speech TV’ Problem

    I've been seeing this coming, and writing about it, for weeks on another board. It's a wonderful, ironic case of two government initiatives (family tier vs. PI must-carry) working against each other. I think the potential solution of allowing subscribers to opt-out of FSTV makes the most...

    sports channels on AT120 package

    That's mostly correct, although some pro sports remain in the clear. Examples include Canadian football, minor league baseball, and some NHL replays. This is where I used to post the long-as-your-arm list of what you do and don't get with the sports pack. Now, if you really wanna know, drop...

    Multi Sport Pak

    Turner South is not included in Dish's Multi Sports Package list. http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/programming/packages/sports/multi_sport/index.asp?viewby=1&packid=10161&sortby=1

    Multi Sport Pak

    Correct in spirit, but not perfectly accurate. Arena football, indoor lacrosse, and Canadian football are just three counterexamples. Rather than cut and paste my long What You Get From the Sports Pack list again, I've decided to host it here: http://www.carload.com/dishsports.htm Altitude...

    dented dish!

    The dish is a simple parabola, focusing the signals from one direction to the focal point of your LNBF. If a small part of it gets dented out of shape, the signals that land on it bounce somewhere, but not to the focal point. The worst case is that you'll lose a percentage of signal quality...

    Getting a wire from dish in from balcony to apartment...

    Important Note: If possible, snake the flat wire in through a window or sliding door that isn't used often. If you have to stick it under the moving section of a sliding door, the rubbing will wear it out very quickly.

    ImaginAsian TV gone too?

    I see it too, there where ImaginAsian used to be. At least we now have the choice of Retro Jams in regular audio or AC3. :rolleyes:

    The Tube Gone?

    I first noticed it last night about 15 minutes before some of the Equity stations show their Retro Jams On Request hour. At the top of the hour, this Retro Jams channel ran the On Request show. I was hoping this was just something that changed for the evening shows. Maybe not. :(

    CFL games on RTN

    Was it Tony Hill and Mark Followill that you heard? They're supposed to be announcing the US feed for the CBC games. http://www.cfl.ca/index.php?module=newser&func=display&topicnum=1&nid=5779

    No CFL late game this Saturday on RTN

    I found out from a short release on the CFL site. http://www.cfl.ca/index.php?module=newser&func=display&topicnum=1&nid=5973 I had thought that America One brokered all the US broadcasts of CFL games. The schedule on the A1 site confirms that it's not carrying Saturday's late game...

    WPRU (ABC VI)...same as WABC (NY)?

    I've been using WABC for my TitanTV grid. I don't watch the channel much, but when I do, I haven't spotted any differences yet. And of course it's WVXF, just in case a newbie might be confused.

    Here's Lucy / The Lucy Show ????????

    Some of the public domain DVD folks seem to think that a lot of (maybe all?) episodes of The Lucy Show are now PD, joining early Beverly Hillbillies, early Dick Van Dyke Show, and Ozzie and Harriet. (Which is why there are lots of Lucy Show DVD packages out there.) Viacom might syndicate a...

    Why am I not recieving all the Fox Sports Nets?

    Didn't anyone notice I listed Poker under "Other", the category that also includes Music and Darts? Whatever you want to call it, it's something you get more of with the Sports Pack. Only you can decide whether that's a recommendation or a warning. ;)

    Can I in Minnesota get T12 sat?

    If I read the footprint map ( http://www.loralskynet.com/glb_fleet_12.asp ) correctly, it looks like the elevation angle would be less than 5 degrees for MN.

    G10R Issues

    When a channel completely drops from an otherwise good satellite, the solution is to delete it from your set of channels, then rescan the satellite. That's what I did last night, and KTWO turned up at 12101-V, sr 2222, vpid 4130, apid 4131. Yes, that blockish pixelation is what you get when...
