    What are you Watching?

    Star Trek DS9 "Way of the Warrior, Part 2". One of my favorite episodes.

    Windows 10/11 Download

    I have Win11 on 2 laptops and they're not using disk encryption. I upgraded Win10 on 2 PCs and neither installed disk encryption. I don't have secure boot setup on any of them so maybe that's the difference?

    The FCC Will Allow ABC, CBS, FOX, & NBC TV Stations to Shutdown Free ATSC 1.0 & Switch to ATSC 3.0 Only

    I thought that they weren't going forward with ATSC 3.0. I doubt many people have TVs that have such a tuner in them and that there is no standard established yet. Isn't the encryption causing this to be delayed anyway?

    Windows 10/11 Download

    It appears that there is tax software that runs natively on Linux. I might give that a try.

    Windows 10/11 Download

    However, not all Windows apps run natively in Linux. I have 2 apps that only run on Mac and Windows. I have to upgrade to Windows 11 in order to run next years TurboTax. Only one of my PCs meets the Win11 requirements but there are workarounds to get Win11 installed on computers that don't have...

    I thought how cool it would be to live in the 24th century but no TV? I guess the holodecks and holosuites will fill in the vacuum.

    I couldn't find a reference to the quote by Data in ST:TNG when he stated that TV did not survive past the mid 21st century. Seems like it may be a valid prediction. This is from the episode when NCC-1701-D encountered the Romulans for the first time and where they encountered a derelict space...

    5g interference

    No. It is probably the C138 though. I couldn't see a model number on the LNBF without taking it out of the feed.

    5g interference

    I wonder if I need an LNBF with a tighter bandpass since 4032V15201 on 117W intermittently drops to zero CNR but mostly stays at 14 dB. Happens on both my 12 footers. I don't remember which Titanium LNBF I have without getting out a ladder to look at the LNBF.

    SES-1

    Make sure you're pointed at 101W. If you're getting any other active channels like Daystar then you'll know you're on the right satellite. Blind rescan worked for me. What size dish are you using. Mine's a 12 footer. You may have to delete what you already have programmed in.

    Transponder changes. You'll have to rescan to get them again.
