It should be noted that 99.9% of users don't care about your over-provisioning.

I disagree with you. Picture quality was poor on cable. Maybe yours was better but please don't tell everyone that quality was different because you said so.

I will make a note of that. Thanks for your clarification on the matter as it was extremely helpful.

That's not always the case.

ABC did use C-band for newsfeeds out to stations and some stations would use C-band to send stuff to ABC Newsone. ABC used network affiliate backhaul transponders to send newsfeeds during non-network programming. This happened weekdays starting after the 3pm ET soap finished. They dropped out...

This is driving me nuts but somehow I managed to get into a special menu that had lot's system info displayed. It is not a normal system menu selection but some keypress when in the settings menu to access it. The time I happened to discover it there was some good diagnostic stuff to look at...

I am glad Shaw can bill my U.S Visa card. Makes it easy to pay every month so I don’t have to worry about it

Grady’s, now that’s a blast from the past!. I think I purchased from them but can‘t remember that far back. Hell I can’t remember what I did yesterday so I am glad you mentioned them.

I don’t know how my broker setup my new account but no need for a credit check and auto pay with my Visa. So I really don’t know how Shaw can charge my card when my U.S address would not match my brokered address. I bought my equipment through an Amazon seller and according to Shaw’s website...

I can remember along time ago when you could walk in to a Best Buy or Circuit City and buy receivers & install kits. Most people just needed to only see 101° so it was a plain old 18 inch dish. Install and call to activate new service. Do they really care about "moving" these days or is...

Snow fade!. We must be neighbors..

KIRO 7 in Seattle is running a crawl that January 14th is the takedown date.

Good to hear from you Mike. Around 20 years ago I drove to Plain, WI to get my first Starchoice system from you. It was a 401 & 90cm dish. You helped me allot by setting up my reciever and account with Freeway (remember those crooks) plus a grand tour of your dish farm. With just the one...

I am still new to this site and Scott you do a great job running it and reporting on events in the satellite world. SatelliteGuys is a wealth of knowledge from all the members here for answers to questions and all around discussions. Definitely worth the money by becoming a member. Have...

Here in Minneapolis G1 has a great signal as it should have. I don’t know far south it goes but it probably goes down pretty quickly. I am planning to move in the spring to approximately 150 miles due south but definitely still in the footprint. At some point I do need to go to St. Louis so...

3 months free is not bad. Just remember to cancel it after the free period.

The first visit to Vegas is good after that it’s boring so your right about that. I would think forum members would want you to go if it could be financed. It’s good to have a person who knows the industry for reporting on what goes on during a Team Summit. Do the hookers have a special...

Look at all the diginets available now. Pretty much a network that would be worth watching. The more the better, can’t beat free tv!. The question is how many may not survive this year.

I dropped one of my HR24’s from my account. The rep said they did not want it back but would send me an envelope to mail the access card back. Never received the envelope and the receiver is in storage. Who knows I may have it put back on my account.

My area is available now. On the local channels list it appears they only stream the big network affiliates. Here there are a couple of independent stations along with PBS. With satellite those are available but if AT&T wants to migrate people to AT&T Now why would they not include all the...

Wonder why they did not discount the non-DVR to under $99. Usually the pair are on sale together. I am not a real fan of BB but It’s easier to walk in and pickup your stuff the same day and return if need be. I had a local dealer install my system and do upgrades over the past years. After...

A long while back I requested three new remotes for replacements for all three of my boxes. Rather than shipping it they sent a tech to deliver them. I asked why and he told me that he had to verify that all my receivers where all in my home. Seamed odd but he gave me the remotes and peaked...

That is why I don’t let my dog touch the remote anymore. He always would watch the worst shows.

What’s the lowest package would have 4K in included?. I hear good things about the Hopper 3 and would consider it and switch from DirecTV. I like that it outputs 4K right from H3 and not needing clients since I have only one set.

Yes I do agree and also going to stick with Directv. It's a known fact that for example owners of local tv stations are overcoming soft advertising revenues by increasing retransmisison fees. It defiantly is getting out of hand. Programmers say MPVD's will fold and pay insane rates for their...
