I have read a few posts which stated that the size of the spotbeams for the new DIRECTV 10 satellite will be smaller than for the existing satellites. Is that correct - a function of the improved technology of the newer satellites, related to the Ka vs Ku broadcast frequency, or just a decision...

In the Wachovia Conference Call referenced by ScoBuck the D* CFO mentioned that they expect their costs for the HD DVR to drop from "north of $400" in the middle of this year to $300 by the end of this year. That could translate into a drop of perhaps $100 on the list price to lease the unit...

In his article on Thursday Nov 2 in the Wall St Journal, the Personal Technology columnist Walt Mossberg mentioned that he had to get rid of his DirecTV for Comcast cable because "the trees in our yard blocked the high-definition satellite signal -- which is beamed separately from another...

Any idea whether D* will pick up this new channel. FRANCE 24 covers world news with a French touch. FRANCE 24 broadcasts 24/7 in French and English, as of December 2006. Its signal is free to broadcast, as well as being digital and free to air. It is distributed in France, Europe, The Middle...

I was interested in learning which companies are the current SD and HD receiver box suppliers to BEV.

I was watching Law & Order CI tonite on USA on my 27" SD Sharp TV and was surprised to see jerkiness as the characters were moving around. Instead of 30 frames per second it is as if perhaps 5 or 10 frames were missing at times. I have heard about HD Lite but didn't think that I would be able...

I was wondering whether there is a consensus regarding the picture quality for the LA or NY locals from people who previously had viewed the MPEG-2 transmissions and are now viewing the MPEG-4 version.

I am considering signing up for the HD package and getting the AT9 dish installed but unsure about the mounting location. I am thinking about having the base mounted on the wall of the house just under the eaves, so the dish itself clears the eaves and is above the roof slope plane. Can someone...

I have a D10-200 and have recently experienced a software glich on the machine. Every day or so I get a blank screen when I am watching TV (usually it is something important like the NCAA Final Four tonight) with the message in the blue patch at the bottom stating "Searching for Program Guide"...

I signed up for HBO recently on D* and realized that HBO Comedy Channel is not included in the package. My local cable company includes the channel in their package and I see that Dish includes it. Is this a recent move by D* or did they never offer the channel?. Any ideas how we can get D* to...

I bought a used D10 receiver and want to force the software update so I don't have to wait for it to be downloaded. There is a five digit code I used on my other receivers but I can't find the thread using the search function. Can someone please tell me the code again. Thanx.

I am going to add a used D10 receiver to my subscription. Will D* require me to add 1 year to my service committment or is that only for new equipment that you buy from D* or a D* dealer?

I know that the new D11 receiver made by Samsung has a USB port but is there any other significant changes from the D10's? Does the D11 support MPEG-4 or is it limited to MPEG-2 like the D10's?

I was watching some of the games on the free preview of the NHL Center Ice today and was bothered by pixelization on the games broadcast from Canada. The ones originating from the US were fine, but the Canadian source games would blackout every few minutes. I figure it is a problem with the...
