    Update

    To Big John- yes, we haven't heard anything from Discovery saying we cannot sell them any longer. They are good people to work with so I imagine they would give ample time for us to get notification.

    Update

    I'm really not at liberty to give out numbers but I would say they are very healthy. I'm an optimistic person and I always thought we'd get good numbers of customers that would do the conversion and carry on. The president of our company and some employees had their doubts but I proved them...

    Update

    Thank you for the feedback. I'm not familiar with the receivers or protocol that you are speaking of. I do know that if it will cost a lot of money or resources that it probably won't happen. The president of our company is also in the ATM business which is doing very good. That is where the...

    Clock reverted back one hour again.

    There is a problem with HITS, and Moto is working with them to get it fixed. Last time this happened it was a range of channels that changed the clock ahead 1hr.

    Hi, I'm not sure what Skyvision is going to do with their packaging in 2011. They build the packages and we just sell them on their behalf. I do believe SRL is going to have similar packages that are currently available on the W5 satellite. Regards, Tim

    Don't Believe NPS about C band support ending.

    SRL received verbal notice yesterday that Motorola is shutting down 4DTV services as of December 31st. Up until yesterday Motorola had stated that "the rumors are unfounded" and an April 2010 memo stated "We look forward to continuing business in 4DTV." Also we were told as long as 4DTV remains...
