--Hi, guys. I am about to re-start my FTA hobby. While I never had trouble setting up a receiver to pick up one satellite, I would like to "advance" to either a motorized system or get an antenna like the torioidal T90. I've asked a local DirecTV/Dish Network if he would be able to help me...

Hi, LailaS@DISH. Okay, yes, we did watch a movie called "Spy" with Melissa Mccarthy. However, when I saw that charge on my bill and it read "IP Spy", it made me think of "Internet Protocol", lol. Does the "IP" part of that just mean that it was streamed? Because I "think" that was an "on...

Okay, just a sec.

--Hi, guys. I got a strange charge on my Dish Network bill called IP Spy. It's under the "One time charge" section of the bill. Can anyone tell me what it is? I Googled and Binged "Dish Network IP Spy" and nothing shows. I did a search on the Dish Network site, and got nothing. Nothing...

--Thanks for all the great posts, guys. Ultimately, it came down to what store had what gaming console available, as I've heard just about as many horror stories about problems with the 360 as I have the PS3 (though, I expect lemons in every bunch). We chose the PS3. So far, the only games...

Great info, guys. I am really leaning towards the 360, but I think she would prefer the PS3, because she can still play PS2 games on it. Thanks.

Hi, all. We are thinking of buying either a 360 or PS3, and the deciding factor will be what has more games available for online play. So, for those folks out there that have both of these consoles, and play them online, what is better? Thanks for your help. I'm kind of new to these new game...

Yeah, same here. Just a freaky fluke of electronic nature...who knows, maybe I have some weird Dish Network psychic ability to see channels that don't exist on the 110 and 119 sats, haha. But seriously, I will not worry about it anymore, and either get a new sat. dish with 129 on it, or just...

Hi, yes, there was indeed programming and not just a blank screen. Can't remember the name of the program, but it was a woman on a kids show. I've seen her on 3ABN quite a bit when I had FTA.

Thanks, Iceberg. Regardless, though, it was certainly up there at least for a little bit (part of April 8th, maybe around 3 to 5 pm or so?), as I am quite sure I didn't dream this, haha. Maybe it didn't get listed in the uplink report, I dunno. I don't know how my system would have picked up...

--Hi. Well, I had only had Dish Network installed for a few hours when I found 9710. The next day, the channel was just gone. Nobody messed with the dish, because the installer had already left my house, and it was probably a few hours or so after he left when I discovered the channel there...

--Hi. No, this was not a Dishmover. I've lived here for several years.

Pics. --Hi, Pepper. Here are some pictures of what I found out. Also, just looking at the dish, it is at least labeled a Dish 500. Hope this is what you need. Thanks.

--Nope, nothing was touched or moved. What it boils down to is that the first few hours after installation, I was flipping through the channels and there was 3ABN, 9710, which at the time was some kids show with Brenda Walsh (a regular on this channel). I went to bed that night, and when I...

--Thanks for the help. I am looking at a DirecTV dish that I have from previous service labeled "Phase III" with a "built-in multi-switch with 4 outputs". The size is 18x20, and it has three LNB's. I could probably use this for 129, right? If so, how would I wire it up to the receiver? My...
