BVOVN is listed by BVOV as a free key Dish network channel. There were several mentions of it on C band on the internet but o real information. I have been a little busy trying to get into our house and that has been extremely frustrating, and the hard winter, 4 feet of snow that lasted 4...

Look at the Geosat microHD, and you see what I wanted -- and I still have and use when I am running. It is tiny and fits in the motor home. It is 12VDC so it goes with my LCD-LED TV and does not require an inverter. Do I need more? Not so far. I think I left it on one transponder and the clock...

I have a dish, aimed at 119 I think... I have not checked it for 3 or 4 years. What is the Prepaid flex or flexpay? And a strange question - not trying to pirate, but that channel says free preview. What subscription do I need for that? And for $100 I might try to use a 6 foot dish on C band...

OK, that should work. Inverter is turned on most days for at least 45 minutes - and using under 8 watts might be OK on internet inverter, anyway. What is the best deal on the subscription - prefer no contract. I see used VIP 711z - no smart card on ebay, about $50.. Is that a good buy?

Inverter is a problem, but then could not be left on. From what I have read, the receiver is supposed to be on 24/7,

BVOVN is the one I want that I can not easily get on FTA. The WX channel would be nice.

I am considering getting subscription service -DISH- for mainly one channel. What is the cheapest way to go. Problem -- off grid, in an RV, and no phone line, so need 12VDC receiver,

I definitely have AC ripple problems with switching power packs on modified sine wave (AKA square wave) inverters and UPS, and several generators.

Especially when it is a good sized channel cat! When I was in college in MO -- 1/2 century ago, a cute little gal made that two line statement rather frequently. She then said it was a southern statement and was referring to catfish! She said the small ones could best be skinned after cooking...

I have been gone for a year and a half, so I just read this. Anole, You were ONE of the greatest assists to and assets to me also. Yes, I cried.

HUH? You joined Apr 26, 2016 and have Zero likes vs Primestar 31; Mar 15 , 2005 with 819 likes. I have been out of the loop for over 2 years, but There are some people who have built this site and he is ONE of them. I have come back and have not yet figured out the changes, but if attitudes like...

I found mention in one post that Glorystar had added BVOVN or BVOV to the list. I can not find it. Is it somewhere ? For some reason I have not been able to get a new update on my microHD for channels, or software/firmware. I have been off for about 2 years. Thanks POP

Because of the restriction on buying and the increasing cost of ammunition, warning shots will no longer be fired. Local police said, "He was not shooting AT you, he has NEVER missed."

Glad to get a little better internet so can get back on and read some. Trying to pass bldg inspections and get the dishes back in service. It is funny to see the reactions of some to living off what the public offers. I am not even ON the public road! Private power, private water, private...

I thought this thread was several years old. but I had to respond to the no water/no power. My power as not been on since 2005 and I have 4 300 gallon storage tanks for water... With 3 solar panels 6 generators and 9 12 volt deep cycle batteries. Oh yes, a Helio LZ being built in the NE corner...
