    Seattle HD on Dish

    why do you have problems in PDX sam? I find the only real bad spot is west linn down by the river. or up on the hill right under the towers as they start getting spread too far apart. You can usually point a UHF ant UP at a single tower and pull in a specific one if they want. who do you work for?

    Stupidest thing a E* Tech has ever told you?

    Nope, copper is not copper. it has varying degrees of impurities that with out a doubt affect overall picture quality. I do alot of high end home theater installations and frankly i prefer a good old component video connection over DVI/HDMI any day. Without doing serious recalibration of the...

    Whats the point of 3Ghz groundblocks/ wall plates if not using 3 gig coax?

    exactly my point, but requiring only the connectors to be 3Ghz and not the coax "that dont make no sence" (think oh brother where ar't thou)...unless of course its just about the quality of the connection made as pointed out by mike above....but i digress

    Whats the point of 3Ghz groundblocks/ wall plates if not using 3 gig coax?

    Whats the point of 3Ghz groundblocks/ wall plates if not using 3 gig coax?

    youre not following at all. It is a REQUIREMENT per E* that ALL coaxial ground blocks, barrel fittings, di-plexers etc be rated for 3Ghz (yano the blue plastic inserts)...which is pointless if you are only running 2150Mhz coax.

    Whats the point of 3Ghz groundblocks/ wall plates if not using 3 gig coax?

    No, the new requirements by dish and i thing D* that all ground blocks, barrels in wallplates and diplexers be rated at 3 gig but no requirement on coax...it doesnt make any sence. yeah 3 gig coax is available...and expensive at aound 54 bucks per K'. one would think they would want some congruity.
