    Live TV without local channels? Why?

    A lot of folks are tired of spending too much for cable. The average cable bill is now well over $100 per month, and that’s too much for some people. Hey, if you’re the sort of person who gets a lot of value out of TV, if you watch a lot of sports or premium programs, that’s great. I’m that kind...

    THROWBACK THURSDAY: When we stopped selling FRS/GMRS radios

    You wouldn’t think walkie talkies would cause such controversy. But, back in 2019 they sure did. One of our biggest selling daily deals at that time was a handheld radio that promised to work for FRS and GMRS broadcasting. These two forms of broadcasting are very similar except for the amount of...

    Yes, about 6-7 years ago. I use to call in to re sub at a better price than thier outrageous Statement will give you. I have had many years where they will either Talk and talk and never stop, OR they will try to get you to BUY new Radios ... the radios were pushed hard for awhile, that was...

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    I still chat with one of old neighbors, he switched to T-Mobile. My old subdivision had a massive flood( had a super rain event) 3 years after we moved ( first one ever in that neighborhood), destroyed everything in all the basements. He said Comcast has not worked correctly since then ( all...

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    I have had TMHI for almost 2 yrs now; it's been great. Many evenings there will be 4 devices streaming at a time. Way better than the crappy Frontier internet service I had before.

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    Yeah, it seems like there are a lot of happy customers out there, mostly due to the price: https://www.telecompetitor.com/j-d-power-5g-fixed-wireless-has-the-highest-customer-satisfaction/ I assume the prices will go up significantly at some point. There is a lot of uncertainty as to whether...

    Streaming Is The New Cable

    Yep, DVRs was what started everything, taught people they no longer needed to watch Live TV, which advertisers preferred.

    I tried T-Mobil's 5g and it was horrible. Would not connect in 5g to several devices (inlcuding two TV's) and several of our smart devices would not connect (to 2.4). Not to mention their speed throttling.

    My guess is 5G services. My old sub-division back in Michigan ( moved in 2020), we only had one option, Comcast, today, they have all of the 5G Options available. Where I am now, in Florida, only Charter/Spectrum, no 5G, in the next few years, we shall see.

    I know it depends on market, but I wonder where the broadbanders are going?

    Streaming Is The New Cable

    I'd say the DVR killed ads rates which made life harder for locals.

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    Comcast lost 487,000 cable TV customers in the first quarter. Already with just two providers reporting, we are at a 551,000 video subscriber loss. The company also lost 65,000 broadband customers for the quarter, a jump over the 34,000 it lost in the 4th quarter of 2023...

    Random DVR Recordings from 2016 Came Back

    Most computer file systems don't actually delete files when you tell them to. They simply mark them as deleted so those areas of disk can be reused. But if you never reuse those areas of disk the deleted files can be restored. So they may have just been sitting there in that state for the...
