Many people was hoping that this satellite would bring more channels and packaging options in Dish Mexico, but it seems that they've found a cash cow and don't have the need to offer something better. 16 HD channels for 180 pesos :mad: what do you think?

So it seems to me that there's still a long wait for quetzsat-1 to move to 77w, if it ever does at all

Once I asked Then nelson replied But then again... I still can't understand this. What's the real advantage? the two beam maps look very, very similar, so what's the point of having two beams?

How long will it take to be fully operative after its launch?

Nobody ever answer my silly questions XD but here I go again XD Does this means then that the mexican service with 8 transponders will count with twice the capacity which it has today?

OMG :eek: I'm afraid of misunderstanding this (you know english is not my first language) are you saying they would offer same or similar programming packages on both sides of the border?

One thing called my attention now, Am I misunderstanding these maps or the same beams cover both United States and Mexico? and if it does, why?

Does this means that Dish Mexico won't be able to increase its current available space, no new HD for us? :rolleyes::(:mad:

I'm sorry for my ignorance, who's anik to make so reliable his source? anybody has a clue of how many TPs would be usable for mexican service?

What happened? it's still at 77W isn't it?

I never said it was, I just made a comment about the ugly colors they usually choose

Sounds silly but, do you have a picture of it? I got the 322 here in mexico and I hate the mustard-yellow background used in the first custom list XD

I was wondering, is the e4 still in use? well, now is almost 1 year since e1 arrived to 77w, for nothing? I'm asking because lately some channels freeze, not very often but more than you would like, signal strength is good, between 58 and 65, so the only reason i can think of why is it happening...
