    Back up games on MLB network

    Most games televised on MLB network have a back up game. With Direct TV, can you have both games televised? Are they showing the backup game somewhere in addition to the main game?

Are you able to pull Milwaukee or South Bend? Just wondering...

    Ending of pro sports games

    Thanks guys for your input. I totally agree, Dish is way better in that respect of at least sometimes getting to see the tail end of a game that ran over. Just got to decide how much that is worth in the over all scheme of things.

    Ending of pro sports games

    Hello , have a question for current Direct TV subscribers of RSN's that don't subscribe to the professional sports packages. On dish network, if a game is stated to go from lets say 7pm-930pm at 930pm the screen comes back on and if the game is still going you get to watch the rest of the...

    Retro Jams on G10R

    How many channels on FTA use this AC3 audio? I just found retro tonight and am impressed with the video especially for G10, but no audio. Is there enough channels on FTA that would justify purchasing whatever was needed to get sound on this channel? Is this a complicated project or is it basic?

    Help with the concept

    One more follow up...Do any of the dealer that advertise above participate quite a bit in FTA discussions? I would like to give them first shot because they probably have tried to answer questions for me before. Thanks

    Help with the concept

    Hi, Have a few questions. I am trying to read these threads and do not understand how using my computer can get FTA signals, HDTV, 4:2:2 and such. What is this PCI card that is mentioned often? I am assuming I still would need my 4dtv and traxis receiver?? How would I hook this up to the...

    Superstations and sports blackouts

    I am an avid Phillies fan and am always trying to get more games. The superstations aren't worth it anymore. Years ago when Dodgers and Rockies played it was better. WOR many years ago was wonderful with Mets baseball and their winter sports, picked up several 76ers and Flyers games. That was...

    G3

    I thought that would be an easy question to answer for you, but now I am not sure. I tried rescanning G3 on 4dtv trans.11 and then did it again on trans.12 and both time it saved 7 SNG and 3 user add. Both times there is one channel that has a picture and it just says Roberts Communications. I...

    G3

    I guess that proves I am on the correct satellite and getting some of what I suppose to, with strong signal strength. Due to the constant problems I am having since I got the satellite and FTA, would I be best off just getting another FTA system? I might be moving in a few weeks and will have to...

    G3

    I figured out what the 5150 is (or at least I think I did). Its on antenna installation and the 3rd one down. It is on 5150. I am rescanning now to see if more come up. the freq signals in the 3900's are real strong. I can't get any signal acknowledgement on 3840 or 4040. I just scanned and it...

    "Moving to a new city"

    I have reading posts about living in one place and claiming another area to get better locals. Is the conclusion of this that its legal and ok to do. If it is, would a "move" to Philadelphia be very beneficial. The reason is I want Philly sports. Baseball has over 1/3 games on ota, eagles on ota...

    How to get 99W G16 channels?

    I am almost 100% sure my doesn't do what Iceberg mentioned, so I would say my is auto scan. When I program a satellite it gives me a variety of choice for frequency, but if a station is not in the frequencies offered, when I scan it its not available. I can edit a frequency though to get a...

    How to get 99W G16 channels?

    Thank you for this post, I have owned FTA for over a year and have had nothing but problems and disappointment. I was able to follow the direction of the thread and found the channels that I should for G16. On top of that there was a few C-band analog transponders so I knew I had a properly...
