Part 1 of the interview: http://www.tvpredictions.com/shanks091406.htm Part 2 of the interview: http://www.tvpredictions.com/nextshanks091406.htm One interesting this he mentions is that there will be 68 local markets up in HD by the end of the year. The current plus announced...

Just received the datasheets from Spaun for their new AT9 compatible switches. Gina said they should be available by the end of the month. There are 2 versions. One is a 12 port and one is a 16 port.

I talked to Zinwell today and was told that this product, which was due today (7/20/06) has been delayed. The reason given was that D* had not approved it. So Zinwell pulled the launch. The rep did not know what the specific holdup was, but it seems we will wait a while longer. Maybe...

Found this today. http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Samsung-Flip-Top-DIRECTV-Satellite-Receiver-LCD-TV-Combo-SL-10D10-/sem/rpsm/oid/148810/catOid/-12867/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do I have been waiting on this to come out.

change the name of the DirecTV HD Discussions to: DirecTV HD-Lite Discussions :up :D ;)

I know it sounds crazy that Charleston could be coming sooner than later, but a few things seems to indicate it might happen. A rumor is circulating though a local HT group that HD locals will go up on D* in the next round. (After the next 16 get lit up in May.) This rumor is based on a...

How do I remove pictures from the My Equipment area?

You know the ones that indicate your have posted to a thread? They are gone as of this morning.:(

D* makes it debut as the primary sponsor of the #07 DirecTV Chevrolet driven by Clint Boyer. Its Martinsville, so the car won't look like that after the race. Photo linked from www.jayski.com If you like NASCAR, give Jayski a try. Lots of good info.

Well after 3 months, activision finally got around to patching the "Live" part of COD2. You can now host a private game and choose locations. Getting online seemed easier as well.

This thread http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=59872 about whether or not there should be sales tax on a leased receiver got me thinking about something. If I understand it correctly, D* retains ownership of the property. They carry it on their books as an asset. Why would...

Gut Wrenching. A friend sent this photo of a horrible highway accident in Germany. The picture may be kind of hard to take for some of you. If you look closely you can see what appears to be some survivors of the accident still in the wreckage. Although the picture is quite graphic, it...

Just a little fun! How long do you think the D* leasing model will last? I think it depends on how many state AG's get involved as is happening in FL.

This weekend is the first of three weekends of the year with no NASCAR (Cup) or NFL. :( I know there is a Busch race in Mexico, but it not the same.

I was at Big Orange today looking at pole for my upcoming AT9 install. I have the dish, just waiting for a nice weekend day to do it. The have plenty of 1 5/8" poles and some 2 3/8" termination poles for fences. These are 16ga steel posts and look like they should hold a dish. Where do...

I currently have an 811 that is subbed to the HD package only. When D* adds TNT-HD next week, I will have no use for the 811. I understand that D* won't activate HD on it anymore, but I have a friend who has E* HD and would like to be able to give it to him if he can activate it on his...

Now that the football season is over:( , I thought I would start a thread for those who understand the need for TNT-HD. The 2006 season starts off with the Bud Shootout on Saturday 2/11 at 8:00 and features pole winners from 2005 plus previous Shootout winners. There were 17 pole winners in...

This was originally posted over at TCF. Seems either Crutchfield knows something we don't or they let anybody mock up their ads. The caption under TNT says: High Definition High Drama

D* has apparently agreed to be an Associate Sponsor the of the #07 Jack Daniels team drive by Clint Boyer. I find it somewhat ironic that D*'s logo will be shown in HD on a channel (TNT-HD) that D* doesn't carry.:eek: Look behind the number: http://www.jayski.com/schemes/2006/07cup.htm

Is anyone here having trouble getting into the game lobby? From what I have read, Activision has enable the lowest form of the new 360 Live Lobby and it sucks. The best you can do is choose the type of match you want to play, but not the location or who you play with, ie you can't get a group...

continue selling D* receivers/DVR's etc after the leasing program kicks in? I want no part of any leasing scheme those monkeys in El Segundo have come up with and am willing to pay the freight. So the question is will you continue to sell revceivers/DVR's at true cost plus a markup to those...

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/conventions/2006-01-02-ces-video_x.htm The $399 RCA Lyra to be introduced at CES. You can clearly see the D* logo in the top left corner. Scott: Feel free to remove this post if you only want Staff Members posting here.

Probably not, but we can always hope. Would like to see in order: TNT-HD Starz-HD MAX-HD Just give me that and I will be happy for a year or so.;) Just for fun, if QVC went HD how long would it take for D* to carry it.:eek:
