206 is back

Channel 73 works with the MPEG-2 version of ESPN HD but not 206

Same here...it's everywhere.

Okay...he came back yesterday...same guy who did the original install. He changed out my dish to a different (Andrews) dish. When he aligned it he had me next to him watching. It looked like he peaked everything but when we went back inside it was still on occassion pixellating on the locals...

Yeah I have a sneaky suspicion that teh installer just was rushing the job when he came out the first time. And yes I have an H20. Since I have the other D15(???) receivers those are relatively high in teh low 90s and high 80s but the H20 one are ridiculously low. I noticed that right...

Well considering I am the one also having problems with pixellation of my DC locals it probably was my installer who said...it is happening all the time and D* knows that it is but won't tell customers....I have a good feeling that the situation is the Dish alignment. I also notice on my HD...

Man I really hate when the people at the company never tell you this crap when you sign up. I would have never agreed to getting HD from D* if this was the case. I would have just dealt with the lower picute quality until they got their act together. I may just complain outright and demand...

Actually it is happening on EVERY one of the locals. Also, (and I am about to post another thread on this) it seems the new 5 LNB dish is very sensative to weather. We had a moderate rain event here in WV tonight and we lost the satellite signal completely for about 20 minutes. When we had...

My installer said that the DC locals for HD will come in pixellated at times and it is a problem D* is having. I, obviously, don't believe him for a moment. He said that the pixellation issue will not be a problem during HD broadcasts of sports games. Is this a problem of an installer having...

So you think you should be able to view anything on an RSN not in your local area just because you bought the SPorts Package? Have we heard of local copyrights to games in the local broadcast area? ONLY the local areas are allowed by league (NHL, MLB, NBA) rules to broadcast the game for...
