    Any chance of OTA?

    Here are the channels I would love to be able to get via OTA. All between 69.5 miles and 77.1 miles away. The height of Antenna I entered is 25 feet. All show up as poor. Is there an antenna on the planet that would pick up these stations.

    Peacock jacking their rates even higher!

    Wow $30 more per year. Peacock will probably not get renewed next year at that price. My wife watches it more than I do, but much of the stuff is on NBC which we also get via our OTA/Channels DVR setup. Peacock will likely be the first service we drop full time.

    Peacock jacking their rates even higher!

    MY Premium Plus annual plan expires next month and I am most likely going to cancel it before it comes due. If I click the cancel button right now it only offers me the Premium plan for $59.99 per year. Not good enough Peacock.

    The Jays probably would have won if they had walked him 6 times.

    Gave up after 11 innings. Ohtani is a freak. If he remains healthy for the rest of his career, he'll be the best player, likely of all time. No doubts. I mean, the Jays walked him 5 times because they couldn't afford to let him bat at the bottom of extra innings! Hoping he is too exhausted to...

    Maybe we need to have another, public, discussion about the location (or reinvention) of the EV forum.

    I personally, only use it for the NFL or College Football games ... If I can get the $30 or there abouts for the year, Great, its worth it.

    Agreed that you don't need the plus to upgrade to Joey 4. The only "advantage" would be having a common user interface on all sets. I am assuming that the disadvantage is that you lose multi-view. I'm assuming that the plus does have PIP now since it's been rolled out to the Joey 4s now. Perhaps...

    FTA? Talk about a dying hobby. This site could have several names (URLs) pointing here. We could have a few logos at the top. “Electronicsgods” for example. OK, “electronicsguys.” Probably not the best name. But names direct or deter.

    I've been getting it for I think around $30 for the year around Black Friday. I would Cancel Before Black Friday ... maybe the week before or there abouts, they may make you an offer right when you Cancel, I've seen that happen elsewhere before.

    Just received this email: I'll be canceling, and waiting to see if there's another Black Friday special. If not, that's it for us. IMO, Peacock isn't worth anywhere near $79.99, much less $109.99!

    Reddit is trash. It's full of bots, p0rn, bots, hate speech, and is largely unmoderated. I refuse to make an account there. It reminds me of IRC (if anybody remembers that). Edit: did I say 'bots' twice? Meh. I'll leave it that way. 😁

    I honestly think a big part of the problem too is Reddit. Now there is a Reddit for nearly everything, and every service. You want to know about YTTV? There is a reddit for that. DirecTV or DirecTV stream? Also a reddit. It's slowly putting forums out of business.

    It seems to me that our three main competitors are: https://legitfta.com/ https://www.linuxsat-support.com/board/1-linuxsat-infocenter/ https://www.sat-universe.com/index.php All three of these sites seem to be healthy and doing well. What could we emulate?

    That's a pretty good example of probably a huge problem that isn't obvious to those used to just posting in the pub and it's sub forums. I'm a pretty active poster and had no idea you'd made an EV9 thread somewhere else - and I have an EV9. So many topical and active threads like the aircraft...

    While true, there are other subjects, the problem is, younger people have moved on from this type of format, prefer Reddit, Discord, etc. Also does not help that the main draw here is still Satellite TV, where total subscribers are now under 12 Million, combined Dish and DirecTV, who had over...

    I have wanted to move the EV forum to be public, but a few people were against it, so it has remained here. It is one of our more popular forums here. So much so that I had to get an EV this year just to participate. :D :D

    I suppose one thing we really must do, is post more outside of the Pub. So there is content that can be searched and discovered by newcomers. So what are people looking for in the general Internet World? Can we identify that and service the need? Can we use AI (UGH!) to assist us in this...

    Most posting appears to happen privately in the Pub. I've made posts about various things and get replies that there is already a topic in the pub and to join the pub or they get a few views and no replies. Made the post about my EV9, thinking there might be some other EV owners and not a...

    This could be THE site for discussing robotics, such as Optimus, as that field develops. Including Neuroscience.

    And that is why we have the people that we do, but it isn’t a model for adding more members. We’re an island in the seas of Social Media. The main driver of traffic to our site would be folks searching for Satellite TV solutions, but that ship has sailed.
