Anyone find anything? Whats available out there, both on KU and C Band?

After a week of collecting data and working with nelson61 to try and reproduce the information, attached is a projected contour map of the Nimiq 4 satellite located at 82w. Note that this map is based soley on user reports of reception (I collected over 70 different reception reports). If...

Greetings friends, I am looking over at The List @ Satelliteguys.us and it lists KGAN is available on tp 11720 (Vpid 35, apid 34, pcr 34). However, FTAList.com has G18-11720 (V)-35-34 as WNYI and they just wrote back to me verifying this. Is this a mistake on 'The List' or are people actually...

So the regular NFL season just finished a week or two ago. DirecTV is going into their final year of their exclusive agreement for the NFL Sunday Ticket package in 2009. Do you think Charlie Ergen is going to negotitate to bring the package back to Dish Network? Scott, if you guys have an...

Does anyone know if Dish is going to have the Canadian Rogers Sportsnet Pacific feed for this game and if they are, will they be showing the 1 hour pregame ceremony where the Canucks are going to retire Linden's #?

Was looking around online and came across the WINEGARD DS-1111. It appears that the purpose of this device is to attach on to the J mount used for the satellite and let you add another device. Does anyone have any experience with it? Outside of the 'having to be a new customer' restriction, I...

Greetings all, So today a work we get a new recruit who it turns out just has moved down from Alaska. After getting to talk to him a bit, I found out that he is using a Slingbox (not sure what model) to get his hometown locals. Now being the junkie I am to this website, I know that the Alaska...

There is a scroll right now on HBO Channel 300 saying 'We are currently experiencing technical difficulties, please stand by.' Any idea what is going on?

Hey all, Just came across an article today (Nexstar's KBTV to Drop NBC Affiliation for Fox) and it looks as if KUIL-LP is going to be losing its Fox affiliation. The article does not say what KUIL will be picking up, if anything in place of losing its Fox affilation, but there may be an NBC...

Assuming that the removal of the Spotbeam at 110w that is pointed to Alaska and the fact the stations moved back to 148w mean that Dish has failed in moving those stations to the 110w orbital location, what does this mean for 148w? Has this potentially saved the bird from being deorbited for the...

Just wondering if the recent changes to the Nimiq 4 footprint will affect the Digisat uplink reports for BellTV, or will we continue to get them jsut the way they were?

Ok hear me out on this one, Everyone over in the Canadian form that is on the south side of the boarder is pretty mad that the new Nimiq 4 satellite taht just wen't into service has a very narrow ConCan beam. I can understand their frustration as the 82w orbital location has all of the HD...

Channel 9902 congrats slate has changed! Maybe something in the works for 72.7 now, considering Charlie has forgotten to put one there.

Anyone find any good feeds right now of Hurricane Gustov coverage?

Hey all, Coming over from the Dish Network forms (yes, I am one of THOSE people). Had a question for those of you who know whats going on up in space. With Dish Network getting ready to roll out the Eastern Arc project at 72.7 and recently turning on transponders at 72.7, has DirecTV in turn...

Hey guys, Just looking over the slides from the retailer chat the other day and it got me thinking. If Eastern Arc is going to be 61.5+72.7+77 and Western Arc is going to be 110+119+129, with all of the international stations located at 118.75, what does Dish intend to do with the 148 orbital...

Greetings all, Before I get started, YES I know DirecTV has 16 TPs over at 72.5, however a thread over at DBSTalk noted that there is a new TID range that appears to potentially be for that orbital location. Moreover, over at the EKB it reports that there may in fact be a single uplink to a...

Simple question, what are your bets?

ESPN News HD starts at 8am on March 30th, which will be a 24x7 HD station. Since Dish already has ESPN and ESPN2, any word if there is some sort of clause that requires Dish to pick this up or will they have to negotiate for it?

Was over at PWInsider.com and Mike Johnson was reporting on word that DirecTV had put WWE Raw with HD letters in the show header, signifying the show was to air in HD. However, he reports that it is a mistake on DirecTV's part and WWE airing on USA in HD will not happen until after the Royal...

Has anyone had any success pointing at 118k with a non Dish1000+ dish? Anything smaller than 30 inches?

I saw this article over on another site that had a thread started on this subject, so figured I would post the article, and information, over here. Looks like digiblur is going to have some changes today or tommorow with stations going from NA to A. CHANNEL CANADA :: ExpressVu adds MLB...

Came across this today, figure I would share... http://www.digitalhome.ca/content/view/1819/1/

Hey, Well, I was out at the flea market today and saw a MPEG 2 DVB Reciever, Fortec Lifetime Ultra for $40 (with 4 way Diseqc, plus another $10 for a single output FSS LNB (odd, it says Expressvu on it, but under it says Dish Network Canada)), so I figured I would take the plunge and give it...

Hey, Does anyone have any release notes for the new Firmware for the 2700/3700/2800 version 8.30 released on 11/5/2004? Thanx
