quick question...i get both 9300 and 9301....anyway, 9301 comes in fine for a while, then it begins to pixelate. i get between 80-99 on all Xponders for 103b, except for Xponders 7 and 8 which come in at 0 and 74 respectively. should i be getting the ladder and wrenches or should i just give it a few days and see if the real launch will iron it out? i sure do know that i'd rather not climb on the roof ;p
all I can say is after reading tons of posts about this latest Direct TV fiasco, I am sure glad I signed with Dish a couple of months ago..
Why's that ???
Did all the DISH Sat's go up and work right out of the box ?
Oh thats right, they don't put thier own sats up, they buy ones already up there.....

And they are about ready to drop out of the sky. OH Well atleast they have HD PPV!
. But they have 2 Satellite launches for next year too,Yea right!Man, I wasn't trying to bust anyones b*lls, just stating an observation. I was on the fence for months on who to dump Comcast for, and I would have went with Direct, had they offerred a NC HD DVR, but they didnt.
And, using my 10 buck rabbit ears, and my Dish Net System, I watched SEVERAL Football games yesterday..
I guess you Direct TV folks are a cranky after how you have been "HD Teased" these last few weeks....

It's kind of like a reverse splitter except there is one on each end of the cable run.

You know, although I am not sure why, it always amazes me when people ask the SAME questions over and over again. I mean, I have seen people ask questions on a thread when the answer they are needing is at the top of the very page they are on or on the previous page of the thread. I would be willing to bet that we could reduce threads dramatically if people would just go ahead and take the time to at least go back 3 pages from the current end of the thread.
I am not trying to be a dick or anything, its just that there have been so many questions like "I don't get or have low signals on so and so, do I need to get new bbc's?"
It all boils down to this.....if you want a question, BEFORE you ask it, review a few of the previous pages of posts and I can almost promise you will see your answer or one very close to it.

DIRECTV has been getting knocks from investors for some time now about how poor their retention numbers were. The two year programming agreement has put a disappointingly small dent in the churn numbers, but they are better. Every subscriber they keep is another $700 they don't have to spend courting a new one.

Why would you expect an $ 800 HD DVR for free.
By the end of the month, D* will have more HD available than E* so I am not worried, of course I was not worried before either....

Both D* and E* amaze me at the amount of money they will spend for a new customer and how little they are willing to spend to retain an existing customer. When I left E* it was over a free HDR...I left and a month later they were giving them away free to everyone. Now E* calls once a month trying to get me back. I saw a study a few years back that the average company would spend $7 to get a new customer, yet would not spend $1 that it would take to retain a customer. Foolish, foolish people.
i dont recall paying any less since GW been in there and let's not bring up the price and taxes on gas. hell ....everything!
yes, Harshness you are correct.
I didn't EXPECT ANYTHING for free, but like any good consumer, I took advantage of the best deal that was offerred to me..Is something wrong with that?

I love this site for tracking gas prices. The graph tells the whole story.

note Jan 2007 was where gas prices took off again, Just about when the new Congress took over.
