Oh I see you have some other way to watch TV in Canada?

Wow that's a lot of ppl! But if its an RV park that means ppl don't live in the US all the time so wouldn't you all just put your SD subscription on vacation until you get home and not cancel it?

Well duh that's why I said that Shaw didn't send out notices about F2. I was just following up on Stecle's fly on the wall question I was curious about this question too.

Also I wonder if any ppl in the US or Mexico didn't know about this and called Shaw when there channels went out. I know Shaw has been telling ppl to upgrade to 800s but I don't think they told ppl anything about F2 b'cuz ppl in Canada wouldn't have a problem with it going away and Shaw wouldn't...

Okay that makes sense but I thought they weren't selling them any more.

Huh? Why would the price go up just b'cuz they stopped using a sattellite? Anyway I thought they weren't selling them any more just renting.

"East of Sacramento" does Piker no good, he's in Arizona. Like Mike said there's no prayer there.

Maybe but I don't have a better idea to find out do you?

gbaker are you really getting G1 in AZ??? How big is your dish?

He said "And yes, I am well aware of the service going down permanently in the spring, probably in the February timeframe. But that still gives a few months of watching Canadian TV" so he does want to go to the bother. The question is if he can activate the rcvr from F2. FerryD I think I read...

Did I read that you can't buy a 800 rcvr from a satellite store any more you have to get them from Shaw? If thats true that's a bummer since like you said they won't ship one to the US. Can you buy one secondhand on eBay? Or get it shipped to Canada and then have a friend send it to you? If you...

I do but there are also Canucks so you can't know where some body is unless they say.

But some ppl have been getting free rentals. Anyway it doesn't matter if you can't get G1 so no reason to get a new rcvr.

Yes but you didn't say b4 that you weren't in Canada. So no use getting a new rcvr.

Dunno what you mean by "magic method" won't they send you one free?

94-96 aren't channels theyre Bajasat's signal strengths for the channels he said. Even on a barker channel you can go into the settings and see the signal strength. Or do it on TCM.

What footprint are you talking about? Aren't 252 and 258 on F2? Bajasat can't be getting G1 in Mexico.

Are you getting all the F2 stations you subscribe to?

if by modulation changes you mean HEVC no they are still MPEG. I think dual feed always means F2 and G1. Technical Information: Dual Feed from November 16 – November 30, 2023, remaining in MPEG-4 The CATV and MPEG will be provided once finalized.

There's a whole bunch more you didn't list that are supposed to go away next month too. https://www.shawbroadcast.com/Documents/2023/oct/16/HEVC-AAC%20Transition%20Plan%20Fall%202023%20Update%20CATV%20VCN.pdf

264 is APTN we lost that a long time ago when it went to G1. The Shaw list says 268 is "Inuit tV" I don't know that one or where it is.

Even if your Shaw acct isn't active you can get a couple channels and others would say unsubscribed. Some body here can tell you what channels are open I'm not up to date on that.

Those are great numbers for F2, where you live you will get it fine until it goes belly up.

Yeah, which is why I told him not to buy a new rcvr.

He said the last time he got a signal was on Thursday night and it's been out since 3:45 Friday morning that's now more than 36 hours.
