    Even though it is not shown in the guide, the Sharks/Red Wing game is on 95. It is the TSN SD broadcast upconverted to 16 x 9.

    New One Click Menu for the HR20

    That new one click menu from yesterdays download is great. Finally we are able to get rid of that annoying filter selection and go directly to the menu. Good enhancement.

    Anyone getting LA/Colorado Game on 95??

    Is anyone getting the King/Avalanche game on 95? I subscribe to CI and I have gotten all other games that were on 95(National Channel) all year. Looks like someone at D* goofed. I have the SD version on 771, from FSN West. Is it possible that the 95 broadcast is Altitude Broadcast? I just...

    5.8 Ghz Wireless A/V Transmission

    Does anyone know of a 5.8 Ghz wireless Audio Video transmitter that works correctly? I have a RF Link model, but the video washes out when large amounts of white appear on the screen. Example, watching a hockey game or commercial with a white background. It looks like not enough bandwidth for...

    E* questions

    I have a couple of questions about E* HD that maybe someone could answer. 1. I have two HD TVs. I am thinking about putting a E* DVR one one of them and a HD receiver on the other one. When ever I try to get a price for such, it comes up with that E* DVR that has a second output, of a...

    OLN HD Feed Problem

    Is anyone else having a problem with the OLN HD feed, on Channel 95, during the hockey games? The audio keeps cutting off and on and the picture will pixelize. I noticed it during last nights game and again during the Carolina/Buffalo game. It is doing it on both of my receivers, and my signal...

    H10 Needing Reset??

    Has anyone experienced this problem with their H10? You turn the unit on and only get a blank screen. You have to reset the unit to get it to come on, then it works fine. It has worked good until lately, when it occasionally started doing this. It is a pain when you are trying to time record a...

    Connectors on AT9 coaxial lines???

    I have a question for those of you who have had new AT9 dishes installed, by D* or one of their affiliates. I see where D* is telling installers to use the compression type fittings, on the AT9 coaxial cables. Did they install compression connectors on your coaxial lines or did they put the...

    Yearly Instead Of Monthly Payment

    For about 15 years I had a C-Band satellite system. I subscribed to my programing and had the option to purchase it by the year, instead of writing out that check once a month. We would get a better rate if we paid for it a year at a time. I am surprised the D* and/or E* doesn't offer such a...

    5 LNB Dish Mounting Question

    I am reading about all these 5 LNB dishes being mounted on roofs. At my last house they installed the dish on my roof, it leaked and caused me some expensive roof repair work. When I moved to my current home I installed the system myself and mounted it anchored on a concrete block wall, on the...

    Why No Florida Fox Sports

    Why No Florida Fox Sports? Can anyone tell me why Brighthouse, in the Central Florida area, doesn't carry Fox Sports Florida? I have called them asking about it several times and the only answer I get is, "Yes we don't carry it, but I will pass your request for it onto our management"...

    Free HD Receivers For New Detroit Customers??

    I was just looking at the Circuit City web site and saw an ad for the new H-20 for free, to what looks like new Detroit customers. Are they following the lines of E* in giving away free HD receivers to new customers? There is not a lot of information except a note saying "Check local Detroit...

    2 Year Committment For Equipment Replacement

    I got my bill today and noticed a 2 year commitment on it. My commitment ran out over a year ago. So I called and talked to a CSR and asked her why. First she said it was because I added HD service to my programing, I told her that was done about 2 years ago when my system was initially set up...

    H10 Lockup problem

    Has anyone experienced this problem with an H10? The unit is working fine and all of a sudden the TV screen goes black and a message comes up in the lower right corner that states, "Service not available temporarily". The unit is frozen up. You can't do anything to it, not even turn it off with...

    Location For Software Updates

    Is there any place where you can go to find out what software updates are being worked on or to even report a bug, for D* receivers? I have a Hughes HTL-HD and sometimes when I go to Keyword search, use it, then exit back to programing, my receiver reboots like if I unplugged it from the...

    Brighthouse POOR In Sports Channels

    Does anyone know why Brighthouse refuses to put Fox Sports Florida on their cable system? Many areas in Florida have both Fox Sports Net Florida and Sunshine Sports, except for the central Florida area served by Brighthouse. If you subscribe to DirecTV or Dish you get both of them. I have...
