    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    Before making that comment, I had not noticed the page 3 of the list for 11/30/23 with Animal Planet, GSN, OWN, Documentary, Crime and Investigation, Cooking, Paramount. Those will sting people with only F2.

    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    Lots of channels. It could be worse. Not many highly viewed nationwide stations there. Dawson City 75cm dropouts have been moved up 5 months. 6 months ahead for Whitehorse/Yellowknife. Seems like this news will trump the others: "In view of the unexpected increases in ANIK F2’s...

    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    With the 2/21/23 bulletin migration dates behind us, is there any information available regarding future channel migrations (MPEG4 to HEVC or F2 to G1)?

    Bingo! I had been looking for this page for a long time. Thank you.

    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    The movement doesn't sound sustainable for fixed antennas. Shaw used to have a page where you could download spreadsheets of channels with satellite and transponder information. Does anyone know where that information has gone?

    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    Thanks everyone. Moving forward, I would expect Shaw to use the approximately 5 remaining months to gradually migrate channels to G1. By carefully selecting which channels to migrate and when, they can better control the customer service call volume and installer appointments. They won't...

    ANIK F2 - Thy End Is Near

    Do I have this right? 1. Shaw and Telesat moved 46 channels from F2 to G1 allowing F2 more bandwidth for the remaining F2 channels. They also changed modulation on F2 to increase signal strength and for more error tolerance. These changes allow the operator to lessen the rate of satellite...

    Nobody ever figured out why they moved HD's ESPN, USA, TNT, WGN from 110 to 119? Pretty big move there. Two theories were for Olympics and some deal with DirecTV. The Olympic theory doesn't add up to me because what difference would it make having room on 110 versus 119. User with one have...

    922 Sling Setup Instructions

    So with the 922, I cannot watch via the slingbox site? I must use dishnetwork.com / remote access? I was hoping to assign this box to my slingbox account so I can select the device (922) along with the other 2 external slings that I run (desktop and android).

    Service Restored to 129 Satellite!

    Maybe they forgot to pay their bill? Or maybe it's another dispute. I hope not because that could take months. Kidding btw.

    Quetzsat 1 Successfully Launched!

    This looks to me like a straight swap for E*4 (8 Transponders for Dish Mexico), and E*8 (23 Transponders USA). Notice there are NO northern border locals on E*8 now and Quetzsat1 will not cover those areas. Since Quetzsat1 won't cover northern border areas of USA it is useless for national...

    6/1/2011 5:46pm - Uplink Activity Report - 71 changes

    Thanks a lot for the replies. Interesting move. Oh so this is to wake up the people who didn't have any movie channels get dropped to MPEG4 SD. I wonder if they'll end up putting all the MPEG4 SD on 61.5.

    6/1/2011 5:46pm - Uplink Activity Report - 71 changes

    Anyone notice these adds and have a clue what they're for? They are all on 72.7 in the same MPEG4 HD. The channels numbers are not typical 9400's HD's either.

    Finally HD Channels in Mexico City

    I didn't see you say you have tried this... To see if 103ca problem is related to signal, switching or voltage loss issues, first try running a cable straight from your 103 lnb to the receiver without combining or switching. See if both 103ca and 103cb are there. If it still doesn't work, move...

    DISH HD Migration off of 61.5

    Sorry, I misspoke. When I referred to 61 I meant to say Echostar 15. When I referred to 72 I meant Nimiq 5. Pushing customers off 61.5 to receive their HD from 72.7 doesn't open anything up for them. All it does is FORCE a lot of people to update their systems. It's not like they have to...

    DISH HD Migration off of 61.5

    Yeah, no answer as to what they are going to do with the completely conUS Echostar 15. ? It seems to me that they are simply going to slowly hide HD content at 72.7 so that people call in and get the correct Arc. If Dish just sits and wait for everyone to call it won't happen. I don't see...

    Echostar 14 119W transition information

    Which TP's Change FEC on 6/10? At what time? Digiblur, Is there any way you can tell us what TP numbers are changing FEC on 6/10? Can you also tell what time? 3am Eastern? Thanks.

    Hello, Any clue what they are doing with E*14 TP 07? I thought it was going to be spot but starting today (I think) it's coming in and it shouldn't for me if it's a spot beam. Thanks.

    Echostar 14 119W transition information

    It looks like they did about half of the migration of the ConUS transponders tonight. Except for what they had on conus tp 4, the rest of the channels stayed on their same tp (unlike the last migration to ciel 2).

    311 Out? No more single tuner SD?

    Yes, that's true. The lack of a single tuner SD receiver being available to new Dish customers will absolutely not effect Eastern Arch. The customer in question could have also been installed a dual hd vip222 with no dvr if he didn't want to pay the dvr fee.

    311 Out? No more single tuner SD?

    The retailer could have done a single 322 dual tuner. Or if if the person you know didn't care about paying HD fee or DVR fee then the 722 is perfect.

    311 Out? No more single tuner SD?

    If they are short on 311, which I beleive they are, then why does the 322-1 count as a dual tuner in a DHA lease where they only allow 4 tuners to be leased? It seems like they are really pushing out single tuner boxes which are a valuable option when installing.

    311 Out? No more single tuner SD?

    Guys, I heard that there will be no more of the 311(R) offered and that they were replacing it with the 322-1. At first they said the 322-1 was a stripped down 322 to a single tuner with no $5 no phone line fee. Now they are saying the 322-1 is GOING to count as a dual when new accounts...
