    DIRECTV 3D

    Wearing the glasses is not the only issue! The problem is many people just invested hundreds to thousands of dollars of nice HDtv sets. And instead of making 3D passive and compatible with "current" HDtv's they decide go this route. Im sure they could have made this technology passive by making...

    Cancelling DirectTV HD Service..

    Plus going to Dish you still will be getting the same HD channels showing 4:3 content most of the time! Your problem is not with D* but with the broadcasters. They are the ones upconverting SD into an HD feed.

    DirecTV and new channels

    Directv spends toooooooo much money on sports like "NFL Sunday Ticket" exclusivity. (hope I spelled that right!) :D

    Has Directv lost that HD leader feeling!

    Don't mean to hijack this thread but has anyone notice that DVR service is no longer free with the Premier pack? This is getting rediculous! :mad: Plus the lack of more National HD channels doesn't justify all the recent price increases either.

    Satellite TAx in GA?

    Just checked my bill and I have no such tax! That is very weird! I hope it isn't true that this is happening! Normally Directv will alert us on a special channel of such a tax!!

    DishNetwork Uplink Activity Report - 5/22/2008 4:09pm - 49 changes

    Exactly! D10 gave 75, D11 would also be 75 which brings the number to 150 for National HD. BUT enough about D*. Don't want to hijack this thread anymore! :D

    DishNetwork Uplink Activity Report - 5/22/2008 4:09pm - 49 changes

    Scott I thought D10 and D11 are exactly the same. How is it D11 have more spotbeams? Based on Boeings information there is no difference between the two! 55 spot and 32 conus plus the spares for both: http://www.boeing.com/defense-space/space/bss/factsheets/702/dtv10-11-12_factsheet.pdf

    We Have Liftoff!

    Scott you have to admit, considering D11 was launched from the equator unlike D10, the time frame to become operational is a bit too much considering D10 took less time to get into geo position and had to work its way to its geostationary spot on the equator. If memory serve me correct it only...
