I just go ASdfc ZSDFg on thoseOK, well then, just pretend I added the comment, "Completely wrong" to all my deleted posts.
- I have absolutely no clue whether those are meaningful acronyms or not!
- That is much harder to type than just filling in "mistaken".
I immediately thought of my typing class in Jr. High back in the 50s. Put your fingers over the FDSA on the left hand and JKL; on the right hand. It is your starting point for keyboarding. I saw some of that in HipKat's post.
Yeah, I looked for the "home row" as well, since I've been a touch typist from HS. But the letters HipKat typed were not just the home row, but others as well. I would have trouble typing that quickly, and could type "idiotic" much faster.
Not to mention 'damnable!'Yeah, I looked for the "home row" as well, since I've been a touch typist from HS. But the letters HipKat typed were not just the home row, but others as well. I would have trouble typing that quickly, and could type "idiotic" much faster.
i am sure that would be very clever, if only I could figure out where it came from.Not to mention 'damnable!'
But do so safely. Wear a mask!Wow, me thinks some of you guys need to get up and walk outside once in awhile.
Perhaps you had a real batwing antenna like I did.
This one is the Winegard Sensar III RV antenna. I had an unamplified Sensar II and it worked great on the roof for years before the damnable plastic mount broke. It never did get Baltimore stations reliably, though, which is why I switched to the deep fringe antenna I reported above. I can now get all Washington stations at 100%, all Baltimore stations at near 100%, WMPT in Annapolis at near 100%, and even some Hagerstown stations with what the Hoppper reports as "fair" signal strength. Lots of dropouts on Hagerstown stations so "fair" is not really watchable.
I think the analog to digital transition didn't affect the problems you are seeing with the Terk, other than the issue many of us have encountered, which is that you could watch a snowy picture farther away than you can with ATSC where you might get little to nothing on your TV. IIRC they reduced the power for digital transmission, why I don't know.
Refresh my memory. Did you try running that antenna directly into a TV and have the same issues? If so, then it's not your AirTV adapter. Did you try taking that power injector out of the coax line, to see if there is any change? The amplified antennas I have used in the past basically don't work at all without power, i.e. the signal doesn't pass through the amp very well when it isn't on and working.
Assuming it's an HD program, the EHD program stream file is already MP4. Just saying.
Because of the damnable DMCA which IMHO goes way way too far. Taken literally, you can't even rip an owned DVD for your use elsewhere.
I had this happen once. Given those damnable non-skippable commercials, I decided to rent the DVD instead.
Wise man. If you have a Hopper, waiting a week will allow you to auto skip the damnable commercials.
As Zookster intimated, there's little science in this so-called SciFi program. But as a scientist, I have to say that very few "SciFi" movies or shows have much (if any) science. What I want is some acknowledgement of real science in my SciFi. It is permissible to go faster than light by appealing to the "warp drive". It is impermissible IMHO to go faster than light without even acknowledging that might be a problem. Don't even get me started on the Disney film, The Black Hole. God Almighty that was awful! I had to watch it through to the end just to see if it was really that bad. It was. Did you know that both heaven and hell are lurking in there?
I also must say most of the episodes of Debris do have a twist at the end (classic element of scifi), and there is all sorts of neat alien tech to ooh and aah over.
You mean like catching the damnable insidious coronavirus does?
It doesn't matter how healthy your son is now. What matters is whether he contracts the damnable insidious coronavirus because he wasn't vaccinated, and subsequently suffers severe illness or even dies from it. Yes, that can happen to 14yo's. Could you live with yourself were that to happen? I sure as hell couldn't if I had withheld my daughter's easy and free chance at immunity.
I wonder where it came from. I found three pages of posts where you used that term and selected just a few of them!i am sure that would be very clever, if only I could figure out where it came from.

(Come on, you knew I was going to come up with something.)
Haha! You are a master of the SG search. Wow. Yes, I do remember saying most of those things in other threads. And IMHO the word was well-deserved.I wonder where it came from. I found three pages of posts where you used that term and selected just a few of them!
But I'm glad you didn't come up with such a quote from this thread. If you had, I'd worry I was going senile. 
Just that damnable Bobby pulling your chain! Let me pour you a nice single malt….Haha! You are a master of the SG search. Wow. Yes, I do remember saying most of those things in other threads. And IMHO the word was well-deserved.
After reading all of those, all I can say is that bluenerd is going to have a cow over how far off-topic that post is, and that this whole damnable thread has gotten, for that matter.I wonder where it came from. I found three pages of posts where you used that term and selected just a few of them!
That's me randomly tapping the keyboard as fast as possible for 2 seconds

Interestingly, that is also the origin of Mr. Mxyzptlk.
You can get off topic all you want. But if you want to spew politics, there is a place for that and this ain't it.After reading all of those, all I can say is that bluenerd is going to have a cow over how far off-topic that post is, and that this whole damnable thread has gotten, for that matter.
Tech dropped off box and usb stick while I did inside he was making sure signal good and existing dish had no issues. While I flashed the hopper. Back home I am! So much better than ATTTV.

Yay, finally back on topic!
I'm glad things worked out for you.Was there anything political in my post? I am honestly confused again.
