    Canadian service below the 49th parallel

    My reasons: When in the Military way back when, I was stationed in Goose Bay for a stint, I was also stationed in Winnipeg as well, and like others I was infatuated by the programming we didnt get here in the US. While not the greatest by any means, and of course this was the late 90s, it was...

    SD HD PVR630 Whats it Worth?

    I seem to have no luck in geting a SD system up and running, I dont have the time to even mess with it anymore as things are way too busy for me. I broke out the Roku player and the wife is happy with her netflix and thats just fine with me at this point. So, that leads me to recouping some...

    Shaw Direct signal setup issues

    I am confused, what does "hit" mean? I don't think I have even made it that far. Broker tells me to get the dish setup, get a signal going and then call so they can do the activation, I thought without a signal that you a receiving, no activation can take place or the Hit? I got the bigger...

    Shaw Direct signal setup issues

I will try tomorrow, but unfortunately, I have to wait 2 weeks until my little cousin comes back as he is the one who goes up on my roof (ceramic tiles).

But I saw another website that listed it as 82 for my area, thats where I went from. When I put the dish on the roof, I put the mast first, leveled...

    Shaw Direct signal setup issues

    Thanks, the 'bar page" is correct, its what I am talking about, one time I typed 4128 in there and it turned green and no bar signal, but ever since then I can type it in there and its doesnt turn green anymore, it stays red. I turned to 299, 701, 750 and just blank channels, nothing. So what...

    Shaw Direct signal setup issues

    I got my HDPVR630 a couple of weeks back, last night I put up the 75E dish which I also got. I went into the installation settings and as I tweaked the dish, I got no tone change or bar change on the signal page. Funny thing is though, I found the system settings page where it lists the...
