    Any "in the clear" HD Networks, HD feeds, HD Sports out there??

    ummm.. it isn't a diseqc is it?? thought they used a 22khz tone switch... I opted for the 621-1 it is 4dtv compatible on the KU side (Single 10750 lof instead of the dual 9750/10600 on the 621-2) anyway played with it some with an FTA and both c and ku band work really well with my 7.5 foot...

    Any "in the clear" HD Networks, HD feeds, HD Sports out there??

    regarding the dvb-s2 stuff.. are you sure that isn't the only thing stopping FTA's from getting them (dvb-S2 is relatively new and I don't know any FTA that supports the -s2 format) noticed a crapload of dvb-s2 HD stuff on lyngsat that do not have any encryption listed...

    1080p changed to 1080i

    Actually, that is NOT correct... The ONLY difference between 1080P and 1080i is how it is displayed... For example the receiver is CAPABLE of displaying 1080P @ 24hz and also displaying that same content @ 1080i and 60hz... the main difference are simply flags int he stream that tell the...

    Trust Counts... A Note from SatelliteGuys Founder Scott Greczkowski

From every beta testing program I have been involved in all the testers were ONE group! there were no sides... seems more to me than anything, DBStalk is just hashing sour grapes cause they feel slighted.. once ANY product is in...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    exactly..I'd gladly (And do) take the higher quality SD thats broadcast on some HD channels, over the crappy normal SD Dish or Dtv broadcasts.. Take Scifi for instance.. the SD feeds on the HD channel rival C-band analog quality and when there is HD content that they have acces to I get great HD...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    it IS up to the channel..the provider simply PROVIDES.. blame the channels...Dish adn DTV have ZERO control over a channels content, they can't force TBS, or any other channel to offer MORE HD and as long as a channel is showing SOME HD, there is nothing the FCC will or can do... If you are...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Ummm..you are blaming the worng people.. you CAN'T, in any way, shape or form, blame the providers.. they simply carry the signal provided to them by the Channels... TBS offers an HD channel, dish and Dtv carry it. It is advertised, by the Channel owner as HD, so dish and dtv advertise it as...

    Now here is a read...

    Dish dimply wanted to retier the voom channels and call it even.. VOOM refused, so dish followed there only other course....IF voom won't let them retier, then they will remove the programming..Voom sued, so the channels remain untill the court case has been heard... VOOM, if they really want to...

    Eastern Arc?

    not possible... 61.5 is way to far off to get with one dish along with 110/119... they reason you can add 129 is because it falls into the 9-10 degree spacing range... 61.5 is almost a full 50 degrees from 110...no way a single dish could see both

    Soon is here for new DISH HD?

    Currently 61.5 and 129 are mirrors (Except locals and a few specilized channels).. National HD content is the same...I can hit either one if I need it....(once they do the eastern arc thingy)
