They are coming out of the woodwork. I just got a call where the guy was was acting like he was from SRL claiming SRL was going to go out of business and trying to get me to switch to Direct TV. On top of that he was sure the pizza dish was going to give me a much better signal since it was...

I still have a couple of subs with one of the NPS resellers. Unfortunately one of them is the old 101 package with Fox News that runs out in June and they won't renew. My main programming is with SRL and they simply say that so far no cigar on picking them up and that its doubtful in the...

SRL is more than competitive with NPS and very good to deal with. WebSams is also very handy to have. However, the only drawback I have and the reason I also carry a couple of subs with an NPS reseller as well is that SRL does not sell any programming on G3 and that would create a domestic...

Polarity is fine and corotor is working properly. I did put on a new lnb (70 db gain with 13 degrees noise) but still no cigar. All I can think of now is going back on the roof and fine tuning everything from feedhorn position to elevation. Hopefully without messing up the rest of the arc...

Thanks, at least knowing someone else is getting a clean signal on them lets me know the problem is on this end. Trees are not an issue in this case and its difficult for me to comprehend why I am having the problem just on those three. C4 is not even low on my arc since I live on the west...

Monday I changed a few subs around in order to add the Discovery 4 pack. However the 3 on C4 (600-602-603)are doing the dance of death with 100% signal and quality jumping back and forth between 1 and 99 rapidly. NWCN on 581 is rock solid at 99 and the rest of my arc is a 90 plus quality so...

SRL is Satellite Receivers Ltd also known as Programming center. About Us SRL link Once I retired and got hit with medical issues it left little on a social security check so I also limit my subs. However I do also use an NPS reseller since the wife insists on having Fox News. Had...

It's Back

NPS quality on G3 is shaky enough but when the wife gets home I'm going to catch a lot of flack for not recording OReilly & Hannity. Hopefully its just a power down with storms in the Atlanta area.

Just checked and everything seems to be normal.

And now back again. Beginning to feel like a monkey whose chain is getting jerked.

As of 3PM Pacific it went down again and NPS can send the rehits but fail to get it back up for the time being.

NPS subscribers now have scifi on x4 642. The 920 receivers may need to soft boot and rehit while 922's only seem to require a rehit. SD

NPS says they will have scifi on x4 available at the latest by tuesday. Although I would agree that having multiple sources is really the best way to go having limited resources in retirement doesn't really allow me to split up what few subs i have left on an alacarte basis.

Right now Im only aware that SRL has it on x4 (ku) with NPS suggesting they will have it soon (whatever that really means). There is a master feed (on g1 I believe) but that is not available to regular subscribers.
