Well I had one of these somewhat square eight footers installed on April 1, 1982. It worked pretty well for a few years and I was able to pick up most of the programming available back then. I eventually replaced it with a solid ten footer that was fitted with LNBs that picked up both C and Ku...

Help! I have lost my list of what channels are on each of the transponders on all of the five satellites. Also, does anyone know the locations of the new HD signals for Showtime and Starz?

Cincinnati Reds game tonight on channel 427 in SD only. I could not find it anywhere in HD. DIRECTV did have it on in HD though. What is the problem with DISH? They treat the sports viewers as second class citizens...

In the last two weeks a number of Cincinnati Reds games have been in HD, but carried only in SD on FSN Cincinnati for DISH...

Is it just me or have others noticed an increase in commercials inserted during the games just like on many of the cable networks? They pop up in the middle of an inning irritating the heck out of me. Let's see, my taxes will be going up, the price of the EI package has gone up, health care...

I have had a big dish since 4-1-1982 and I plan on keeping mine until all of the programmers are gone. Mike Shraeder (SP), who started NPS years ago was my installer. Back then he operated out of a hole-in-the-wall office on the northwest side of Indianapolis.

Forgive me if this has been discussed elsewhere, but there used to be someone who posted the TV NBA games like there is for MLB on TV and NHL on TV (I subscribe to both). If it is still being done for the NBA, where do I subscribe? Thanks in advance.

I am in Indiana and I cannot watch the Cleveland Indians on channel 662 in HD. The D* message says that the program is not available in my area (727). I can watch the Tigers side of the game in HD, which is in reality only in SD. I know better that to cal the CSRs since they normally don't...

One of these other threads stated that a new HD receiver needs a 95 or higher signal to activate it for locals. I find that hard to believe. I've got trees that bring my SD receivers down to the upper 70s to the lower 80s on many of my local channels now that the trees have blossomed. Am I...

Just go the their website, peachtreetv.com - Movies, TV Shows - Television Shows - Home, and you can read everything (well, nearly everything) you ever wanted to know about what is on good ol' channel 17 in Atlanta.

Thanks guys. I think I'll follow through with upgrading to a slimline dish. I am not interested in getting any international programming, so would I be safe in getting just a three LNB unit?

When I signed up for Directv in May, 1995, an 18" round dish was installed. I was getting a little too much rain fade so I had it changed out for a 24" dish. Things improved. Now thirteen years later I am thinking of upgrading to a slimline dish and HD service. Will the slimline dish pick up...

I have been just looking at some of the listings of what is on the different satellites and I have noticed a lot of duplication of the locals. One example I picked out (because I am originally from there) is Chicago. The Chicago locals are on both 129 and 61.5. I cannot find the HD feed of...

CSPAN3 sound... Maybe they'll add the audio from CSPAN3

I am curious. Does anyone still sell new 10 foot mesh dishes? My current dish was installed in 1995 and works fine. I've lost a few LNBs to electrical storms, but the dish has withstood all kinds of weather.

Currently I am grandfathered in (for many years) with D* and get the Chicago locals and all four of the east and west nets from NYC and LA. If I upgrade to HD and get the Chicago locals, will I lose either or both of the east and west nets? Several years ago when I was thinking about HD D*...

Don't give up. A few weeks ago I noticed that a Cubs game was not in HD on 429. I called DISH and complained. Within ten minutes it was up and on in HD!

Since I have HD with DISH and not with DIRECTV (too many cables needed for six receivers), I was wondering how much HD content do you who have DIRECTV's sports packages with the RSNs get. With DISH, I can watch the Cubs, White Sox and Reds games in HD, but only the games themselves. I get no...

Yes, I have had the same problem twice with my less-than-a-week-old 722. I have had to rescan the digitals each time to get them back. I do not have that problem with my 622. Both receivers are connected to the same attic antenna.

Since I fall under the stupid territories of the Cubs and White even though I am over 170 miles away, I am not allowed to watch the Cubs or White Sox on MLB.com. If the White Sox were televising on WGN or Comcast SportsNet, I could watch the game, but NNooo - they are on WCIU (channel 26) in...

One aspect about rain fade that I have not seen covered: If I have a 1000.2 setup and a separate dish for 61.5 and I am watching a channel that is on both 129 and 61.5 and a big storm comes up wiping out the 129 signal, will the system automatically switch over to the signal that is on 61.5 so...

I figure that Charlie will add the HD version when their next satellite is lauched...
