    Access Television - FTA?

    Big question... can a previously subbed starchoice receiver get "other" DCII free to air channels ? or only these ones ? and... would a 4DTV receiver like a 922 get them ? I think so - right ?

    DVB terms and reciever questions

    I didnt know that DN did turbo - until i read more... it all comes together finally ;) CS8100 is DVB-S2 8PSK out of the box, which will get most of the current FTA channels out there (not sure about feeds)... and DN - which has a few FTA channels, uses turbo 8PSK which the CS8100 will NOT get...

    DVB terms and reciever questions

    I do not see how the CS8100 does 8PSK... it does look like it does the DVB-S2 MPEG4 , but only using QPSK ? is this right ? also - some articles are reading (e.g. TS in france experiment with 8PSK in 2003)... that there is a thing called turbo 8psk ? is that just a fancy name for 8psk ? or do...

    smallest C-BAND dish

    Excellent news... looks like its worth to have some fun with the 36 incher and see what C band I get... my goal is to reduce the amount of motor movements I need... and using small fixed dishes takes up much less room than a bunch of 6 and 8 footers... have to see what comes in strong enough...

    smallest C-BAND dish

    I have been looking at some footprint charts on lyngsat and investigating (google) some C band dish size discussions on the net... it appears that people have picked up C band channels on a 36 inch dish with a C band LNB... From what I read - there seems to be many birds with muxes that are...

    Quali-TV question

    does this box do QPSK/MPEG4 SD and HD ? Does it have build in Dolby decoding ? to how many audio outputs ? The 4:2:2 is cool... is there somewhere you can order it in NA ?

    AMGTV and Ku

    excellent - makes sense... and she did mention about the affiliates... so that makes sense too thanks very much... PS> I think my friend watched the KU uplink channel, because that was how I caught on... he watches G25 for its foreign content and liked AMGTV when it was there
