Signals have been very good. Listen on 145.950 voice, slow scan tv and info on satellite health (via voice). Tracking info from N2YO or Heavans Above sites. Fun. Following behind the ISS in orbit. Expect some fading since it was hand launched and is tumbling.

Thanks Tony. Nice to have you here.

Yes had the same thing happen here in CT

Just went through that. It's all the channels them moved (today's uplink report). Rep sent a re-authorize signal and problem solved.

Did the reboot and it did nothing. The guide showed the channels as good (yellow for my 211s). Rep said they were aware of the problem and quote "I will send a Strong signal to your receivers" Worked !!

Just a note had to call Dish to clear NOT AUTHORIZED error on all of the moved channels. EA and AEP here.

Having the same audio drop outs on VIP 211 on Fox News

Echostar 6 plans for 77w Not sure if this has been posted yet.
