    Slow page changes on satelliteguys.com

    Same thing for me, slow and locks up at home and at work. Refreshing the page sometimes helps. I do NOT have this problem on any other site, only here. This has been going on intermittently for weeks for me. Some days it is fine, others it is slow and locks up.

    And the local station has NO operating costs??? How about wages, equipment, programming costs etc. Oh wait everything is free for the local station, yeah right. Poor little Dish and poor little billionaire Charlie.

    News Corp could lose spying trial over Murdoch, ABC reports

    DirecTV has nothing to do with this. It took place years before Murdoch bought into DirecTV and he no longer owns any of DirecTV.

    Please Read: Uplink Report Update by Scott

    In my daily email of stories from TV Week, last Thursday or Friday, there was a story about MGM signing agreements with 7 cable operators. It mentioned that they had an agreement with DirecTV but there was no mention of any agreement with Dish.

    Wanted 10-250 got HR20

    The OTA issue is something that will be addressed in a couple of weeks, not months or years. Certainly, this new equipment that came out of beta field testing in L.A. just a week ago will have its kinks, just like almost every other new piece of equipment brought to market.

    Its going to be good year for HDTV Fans!

    Maybe, but it's less compressed so the PQ is better. (For proof, look at D*'s specs for their new HD-DVR. They have the same size hard drive that E* is using, but says that it will hold 20% more HD content than E*'s will. I read this to mean that their compression shrinks the content to a...
