I'm having to move in around a month and a half to two months (long story), but I may go ahead and cut the branches anyway.

Well just to update the tech came by earlier, very helpful and cool guy. He said that the trees were perhaps going to be a problem, but he replaced a bunch of things... various cables, the multiswitch and finally the lnb (replaced my 5 lnb with a 3 lnb.) He also did a slight realignment...

I've been a DirecTV customer since early 2009 and recently started having issues with my signal. It would seemingly randomly go out (although it usually wasn't for long periods of time) Sometimes if I played around with the SWM cable on the multi switch and unplugged it and plugged it back in...

I'm getting horrible signal strength on 103 (ca) (103 cb also for that matter) 30,s 40,s and 50,s on all transponders. I have a tree branch that has always been a little close to comfort in terms of line of sight. How likely would the tree branch be to effect the signal, while not...

Thanks for the reply Jimbo, I'm usually quite careful to set up a game (or anything for the matter) at the right time. Having said that, I may have not set this one game up at the right time, as I was in a hurry when I set the games up to record.

Good stuff! Joplin is indeed long overdue.

It doesn't happen often, but when it does... man is it ever annoying. My A's win over The Mariners Thursday afternoon was supposed to record on MLB Extra Innings... was looking forward to watching it when I got off work and it wasn't there. I know it was set up to record, because I've...

I think they should both learn to get along and merge. How about Dish Direc Or Direc Dish for possible names?!? Seriously though just more frivolous lawsuits on the part of Dish Network, following equally frivolous lawsuits on DirecTV's part.

Long story short I've been a DirecTv customer since early last year. Up until recently I've had a strong signal almost all the time and minimal problems after the install. Not sure if it's really relevant, but it's a swm installation Recently however I've started to just randomly lose...

The A's aren't on much... what a surprise Of course they have to show plenty of Yankees and Red Sox.......

My locals... hd preferably... but would settle for sd feeds for now. DirecTv (and Dish also to be fair) have this annoying habit of ignoring regions that lack any form of locals... in favor of adding hd feeds to already existing ones. Seems like those who lack any form of local should be a...

My locals.. as I'm tired of messing around with a sometimes finicky AM21 and OTA antenna combination. Anything else would simply be a bonus. I don't even care if they are HD locals, although that would be nice. I just get annoyed that both DirecTV and Dish Network make adding HD feeds...

Still no punk station :rant: Of course we just can't live without 5 country stations, 3 religious stations and an Irish music station.

Very nice indeed. I got together with my siblings and bought my dad a Toshiba set last December as a Christmas gift (he had wanted an HD set for sometime) He loved it at the time and continues to love it, they make some pretty damn nice sets.

I've always been under the impression that the two p's (panasonic and Pioneer) made the best plasmas.... although I know Pioneer was talking about getting out of the tv business, they may have already. In turn.... I've always been under the impression that the three s's made the best lcd's...

Seems like they are never going to get to Joplin, Mo locals are the only thing I miss from Dish and Cable. Would be nice to not have to depend on my sometimes flaky OTA antenna/am21 combo. Who knows maybe by 2012 or so the locals might be here Sorry to complain (and to be fair dish...

I'm truly sorry for your loss, I lost my mother to cancer during the early portion of this decade and it's a tough thing to deal with. My best advice having gone through it myself, is to be there for your dad..... Now onto DirecTV.... For what it's worth, I would think they would be...

I've got mixed feelings about this. As a big sports fan, I've got both Extra Innings and Sunday Ticket. Having said that baseball is far and away my favorite sport (and even though they have long been out of it... my A's have been a lot better in the second half) On the other hand I...

I'm just hoping that the new Sat going up allows Joplin, Mo to finally get locals. It's the only thing I miss from Dish Network. I have an AM21 and OTA antenna combo, but it's just not cutting it as only ABC and Fox come in reliably. CBS and Fox never come in. Sure new national hd channels...

Agreed about this area. This area is dominated by Cable and Dish Network. For every one or two DirecTv dishes you see... there are ten to twenty Dish Network dishes. Maybe because of this DirecT doesn't think the Joplin, Mo area would be overly proifitable to add locals to. I will say...

Maybe one day they will add locals (even if it's only SD) to the areas that lack any form of local. That would be more important in my mind, but it seems like DirecTV... and to be fair Dish Network is the same way would rather disregard and neglect areas with no form of locals. You...

This is my favorite news station... and I watch a lot of news, so here's hoping DirecTv does indeed pick it up at launch

For those who are unhappy about still not having HD locals... it could always be worse. Joplin, Mo has 'no' locals and considering this is a Dish Network dominated area, don't think they will have them anytime soon.

Also how long does it need to be hooked up, before you can get the 'pay' on demand programs? I ask because I'm soon going to get a router so I can have my computer, XBox 360 and my HR22 all connected at once. I've unhooked my computer a couple of times... so I could connect to the HR22 and...

It's The HR22. Harshness: When you say to manually record by channel number and time... do you mean to scroll to the showing you intend to record on the guide and hit record? That's what I do now... Or is there another way to record that I don't know about?!? Spencer: The history...
