As you well know, if DN users in Cozumel are having signal problems then Playa users will probably share the same problems. And for those out there that are interested in local geography - Cozumel is an island that sits 20 miles due east of Playa del Carmen. Cancun, on the other hand, is 40...

Luckily I have until December to make a firm decision about how to address the satellite issue. My inclination is to wait and see what Dish does with this whole mess. Given all the great information I've gathered from your post and others, I am going to add a 1.8M dish to my rooftop, unless we...

I am now clearly convinced that using the smaller dish will not work. In reading the voluminous Mexico posts it is clear that I need at least a 1.8M steel dish with top equipment to have a chance of capturing the satellite signal. Is there any difference in going after satellite 72 or 129 in...

Jayrey, Since I am in no rush I will wait until October and make a decision based on the collective experiences of the other satellite users in the Playa area. I agree with a lot of other posters that Dish is alienating quite a few subscribers with their current change in coverage. With my Dish...

DJdish: I looked at Wiki for DN acronyms without any luck. Does DN stand for digital noise or network? In looking at your mini bio, I see that your location is Mexico City, does this same issue with "DN bleedover" effect me in Playa?

I read this link before posting. The problem with this post is it refers to Mexico City which is almost as far away from me as California is to New York (maybe a slight exaggeration) but you get my point. I am about 200 miles south west of Cuba. I think that I should be able to pick up a Dish...

Hi Cditty: We love the lifestyle in Playa as well - now if I could just figure out how to give up my day job and support myself down there, I'd be one happy camper. Can you tell me where I find the eastern and western arc satellites for Dish TV. Will this give me a clue as to the right...

Thank you Whatchal 1 for your quick reply and welcome to this forum! Ok, I'm sure that given the number of your posts you are most likely right about the DISH 1000 satellite dish but I am curious about the why part. Is it that the transponder which sit on the satellites are beaming towards a...

Dear Techno Wizards, I am a newbie to this forum but I didn't know where to turn for well thought out information. So with that said, here goes.... Like a sponge I like to soak up new and different concepts. I am new to the world of satellites but I am eager to learn. I live in Playa del...
