    Adam Lambert closes AMA's in a weird way

    He is a great singer but the french kissing that guitar dude and getting a simulated blowjob from his backup dancer is too much, especially for public tv and coming from a family oriented brand like American Idol. I glad he didn't win on American Idol. Decency in public tv is going down the drain.

    negative, 118 (1F port) and 119(2D port) are on seperate ports, and 110 is on the right bracket (if face toward lnb) and the 129 is on the left bracket. Since you also asking about NFusion FTA boxes on the other thread, I think you are referring to non-OEM Dishnetwork lnb where the single port...
