    Possible line of sight issues?

    I'm having to move in around a month and a half to two months (long story), but I may go ahead and cut the branches anyway.

    Possible line of sight issues?

    Well just to update the tech came by earlier, very helpful and cool guy. He said that the trees were perhaps going to be a problem, but he replaced a bunch of things... various cables, the multiswitch and finally the lnb (replaced my 5 lnb with a 3 lnb.) He also did a slight realignment...

    Possible line of sight issues?

    I've been a DirecTV customer since early 2009 and recently started having issues with my signal. It would seemingly randomly go out (although it usually wasn't for long periods of time) Sometimes if I played around with the SWM cable on the multi switch and unplugged it and plugged it back in...

    D12 satellite - now we're receiving signals!

    I'm getting horrible signal strength on 103 (ca) (103 cb also for that matter) 30,s 40,s and 50,s on all transponders. I have a tree branch that has always been a little close to comfort in terms of line of sight. How likely would the tree branch be to effect the signal, while not...

    Why do things sometimes not record, even when set up to?

    Thanks for the reply Jimbo, I'm usually quite careful to set up a game (or anything for the matter) at the right time. Having said that, I may have not set this one game up at the right time, as I was in a hurry when I set the games up to record.

    Why do things sometimes not record, even when set up to?

    It doesn't happen often, but when it does... man is it ever annoying. My A's win over The Mariners Thursday afternoon was supposed to record on MLB Extra Innings... was looking forward to watching it when I got off work and it wasn't there. I know it was set up to record, because I've...

    DISH Network sues DIRECTV Over Ads

    I think they should both learn to get along and merge. How about Dish Direc Or Direc Dish for possible names?!? Seriously though just more frivolous lawsuits on the part of Dish Network, following equally frivolous lawsuits on DirecTV's part.

    Should I look into realignment?

    Long story short I've been a DirecTv customer since early last year. Up until recently I've had a strong signal almost all the time and minimal problems after the install. Not sure if it's really relevant, but it's a swm installation Recently however I've started to just randomly lose...

    Which channels you like to see added on DirecTV one day?

    My locals... hd preferably... but would settle for sd feeds for now. DirecTv (and Dish also to be fair) have this annoying habit of ignoring regions that lack any form of locals... in favor of adding hd feeds to already existing ones. Seems like those who lack any form of local should be a...

    what do you want from D12

    My locals.. as I'm tired of messing around with a sometimes finicky AM21 and OTA antenna combination. Anything else would simply be a bonus. I don't even care if they are HD locals, although that would be nice. I just get annoyed that both DirecTV and Dish Network make adding HD feeds...

    SonicTap replacing Sirius/XM on 2/9/2010

    Still no punk station :rant: Of course we just can't live without 5 country stations, 3 religious stations and an Irish music station.

    Ordered Toshiba Regza Cinema Series 55SV670u today

    Very nice indeed. I got together with my siblings and bought my dad a Toshiba set last December as a Christmas gift (he had wanted an HD set for sometime) He loved it at the time and continues to love it, they make some pretty damn nice sets.

    Deciding what plasma to get.

    I've always been under the impression that the two p's (panasonic and Pioneer) made the best plasmas.... although I know Pioneer was talking about getting out of the tv business, they may have already. In turn.... I've always been under the impression that the three s's made the best lcd's...
