    ExpressVu satellite back in 1998?

    ExpressVu satellite back in 1998?

    Yes you needed a Bell Expresvu ird to watch the channels because they were scrambled. When they moved to there own satellite at 91w ,you just needed to remove old lnb add new lnb and repoint the dish. I was watching 91w within 10 minutes of watching on 107. Sent from my P00A using Tapatalk

    Pics in threads.

    I just noticed I can't see the thumbnail pics in the threads, and am not able to open them. Did something change on the website or is it a problem with my tablet and phone?

    Alphastar satellite dishes after termination

    Are you talking about the subscriber's dish to collect signal, or the head end dishes? The subscriber's dishes remained in their ownership, and they were able to do what they wish to do with them. Most left them where they were. Others sold them to fta enthusiasts. The headend dishes I...
