Voom Just curious, does D* have access to those voom channels that are now on Dish and some cable companies? If they have the room, why not buy them as well? Joe

30% of PBS is funded w/Fed. dollars. Not mostly. joe

I didn't notice this as I was taking the night off from hockey. My guess this was a mistake by D* knowing them, but if it wasn't thats a very big step. Especially now with the new Rsn's in HD. I love it when we get the one feed in SD and the HD blacked out! Lets hope D* has finally got...

Treasure Channel Hey guys, any chance of getting this HD channel. I've heard that its pretty good from a few folks that have it on cable. Joe

It amazes me some people who don't even have d* come on and bash it. I blame them, but I am tired of going through the tons of BS from people who have other providers taking a crap on D*. I'm trying to find relevant info on when the new date might be and I've got to sift through all this BS...

Yeah, need the new one, a little bigger, and A LOT heavier.

Thanks someone, I'll verify that is what I have... some places I ready the -100 isn't ready, other places it is. Some days I get a full screen graphic that says I need the converter, other days I get the searching for signal message. Guess I'll have to wait and see come sept. Joe

Is it just me or this a bit of a joke? The only reason I stayed with D* is because of these HD additions. (and the fact that I can't get fios where I live) So I stay with them, sign a two year agreement, and now before the satellite is even functioning I have these issues. If the HR-100 is...

Technically do you get "searching for signal on sat 1" or something to that affect? Or does it just say "searching for signal"? Joe

How did you get the right software on it? Joe

Thanks so much guys. Sometime I feel like a pain getting all this info through you guys, but with D* and probably most providers, they really don't know what the hell they are doing. I'm on the phone with them now, and this tech guy has no clue! I'm so happy to have some knowledgeable people...

Hey all Can someone clarify whether or not I have a problem with my setup? Unfortunately D* doesn't deal will with their contractors so I am in the middle of going around in circles. I get a message on channel 499 that says I need to connect b-band converters to get the upgrade. I called...

This was complete BS and I am completely done with ESPN. Evidently the deal they somehow got was since they decided to move the game to 6 est. the EI games that began after 3est were all to be blacked out. Complete BS! Joe
