They don't know? Is there a gas gauge?

Satellite has a cord just like cable. It's just that if you try to cut it, you might get a shock. Unless using insulated cutters.

"Boost" only confused me- this is what I thought of:

Maybe they think the DiSH name has lost a little luster.

At this point for them size is what matters over all else in gaining critical mass in the market. I don't see a big issue with having both payment schemes under 1 brand- simply that the incumbent market majors don't do it that way doesn't mean it's any misstep. Sort of like with DiSH it seems...

Are events being embargoed for primetime, or aired live?

Only for complainers who are versed in working their system. So, you appreciate that you have to jump hoops with them to get your overpriced TV a little less overpriced.

Was in Europe in 1990 and satellite was a novel curiosity displayed in some TV shops. Went back in '96 and they were everywhere.

It's a part of the downfall of broadcast network TV, along with "reality" shows. Beat the Clock? The 70s reboot or the 50s original?

More like maybe limp by. If they can barely make payroll this week, what of the future? What is their streaming service? Redbox? Crackel?

Of COURSE you want to "upgrade your plan"- Netflix is now horrible with all the ads. At first they made it seem like you'd just have to watch an ad at the start, but now there are incessant interruptions throughout shows, as bad as or worse than regular TV with commercials.

Shouldn't they have launched like on a Sat. morning?

Well, who else is going to do it? The kids sure don't care about going really fast for 1/4 mi. And what's with the ageism? If you enjoy doing something you should be able to choose to do it. Like being the president.

My experience with DiSH receiver offair (in pre-hopper gear) has been that it's crappy as far as tuning ch's compared with other tuners such as in TV set. Others disagree.

It's been observed by auto writers that the drive for fuel economy (and perhaps reduced costs) has impelled makers to design with smaller, more high-strung engines aided by forced induction. It doesn't take a mechanical engineer to see that it's not the best recipe for longer term reliability...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but on an electrically-switched LNBF, either by 13/18v or 22k tone, if it's delivering, say, the H xpdrs, then externally rotating 90 degrees without signaling an internal polarity change should null the H and deliver the V xpdrs. Then from there you just have to verify...

The sports-industrial complex.

Physically rotating it (without any other action) will null the one polarity and increase the gain on the other.

The original DBS antenna for DTV/USSB wasn't "round," either but was an offset-feed oval style. This allows for minimizing the needed reflector surface area by positioning the feed and its support arm out of the path of signal to the dish. However, it was of a certain diminutive size no longer...

Just looking at that lineup makes you realize you watched too much TV as a kid.

A whole channel just for cartoons? I'd have never gone outside.

Think maybe you got wrong idea- I said that some other potential (non radio) user of the band wouldn't want to go through all of that care & feeding needed to use it well. But the current radio use does suffer from a lack of giving a rat in some ways- it's hard to keep up all of that care &...

I find it rather weird how the society seems keen & quick to give special deals & discounts specifically to "seniors"- these are the people who by & large have the money in this country to begin with. Shouldn't it be the youth, struggling to launch, who would be better beneficiaries?

The promised land of FTTH, as was forecast back in the C-band days. Mine's from a local rural-areas provider and not google or att.

But then oddly it was Ford calling it quits on AM
