    Do You Remember?

    We had 12 channel cable (2-13) during the 70s and 80s, sometime in the mid 80s they expanded to 20+, then later to the 36 channels and eventually up to the 70 or so chanels we have now on analog. Since about 2000 we had a digital lineup too. Jim

    ITVN box is it compatible with Sky Angel's IPTV box?

    I just found out about ITVN and they offer a similar box for IPTV, would their box be compatible with Sky Angel's? They have an offer for a free box if you keep a $10 per month subscription for one year. If I could do that then I would like to subscribe to Sky Angel's service on it too. Jim

    Hook up a stereo receiver to the right and left audio and not use the tv volume. I rather hear the stuff in good quality stereo anyway. Jim

    Any ITVN users?

    Will a ITVN receiver be compatible with what Sky Angel will be offering this/next year? If so I can sign up for the $10 package and get a free box then subscribe to Sky Angel when it comes out. If it's not compatible then I'll have to buy a Sky Angel box too and be stuck with ITVN box. Jim

    Help - Installing Dish this weekend

    I think the fee for no package is now $6 not $5... I wonder if the Encore $4.99 package is considered a package like Sky Angel, probably not. So if you want PI it would be $6 per month and you can add some channels alacart for $1.50 each (superstations, bloomberg, rfdtv, golf, etc) or the...

    I have 110, 119, and 61.5 and have Sky Angel, PI, and waivers for FOX, NBC, and CBS and I buy 3 of the 5 Superstations, WPIX, WWOR, and KWGN from Dish. My normal TV is from Directv but for this month I have it suspended and have Dish Family $19.99 instead. Jim

    Satellite vs. FTA/Cable GTN Programming

    Happy Days can be seen on other national networks I think TVLand but I haven't seen Family Ties on the air in ages. I know that Guardian edits content from Pax even. Back when Pax was airing Early Edition Guardian refused to play the halloween episode totally and they edited content on some...

    Why do you choose skyangel over FTA?

    FTA is too expensive and too impractical to install on my apartment building, took a miracle for my landlord to let me get Dish Network/Sky Angel and later Directv. Also I use a stand alone tivo with my Dish 301 box. Tivo doesn't support FTA and if there is a DVR for FTA it wouldn't be a...

    I used to work at skyangel

    I got Sky Angel for the 24/7 music audio and video channels. They dropped the southern gospel tv station and air one and klove since i got it. But I like many of the other stations including radiou and tvu and spirit. I watch many of the programs on sky angel that aren't music also but mainly...

    spirit to share time with ktv

    I love Spirit and glad they were able to put it back on. What I don't like is KTV's bug in addition to the spirit bug... KTV is not see thru and is very ugly, who do I contact about them removing it? Jim

    Charlie Chat Recap 6-12-6

    $9.99 for the baby first channel? Are they insane? It's included free with Directv for the past month or so. Since I have no kids I haven't watched it for more then a few seconds while channel surfing. I doubt many parents will pay $10 extra for that channel. There is no premium content. Jim

    Comcast Digital Queston

    Comcast in my area isn't planning 100% ADS for the near future. They got a local deal from some 3rd party to offer a digital feed of all the local Sacramento stations but other semi-local stations and all the cable channels are still analog for 2-99. And get this 2 digital channels TCM and GSN...

    Going back to Comcast!

    For me Directv offers wider variety of channels (non-premium) and better cost then comcast. I don't have a HD tv but do have a HD comcast box with limited basic cable, I do like watching local broadcast channel HD broadcasts in 16x9 dvd quality video. My directv bill is $56 including dual...

    dish 500 with single lnbf connecting to 61.5 satellit

    If I'm not mistaken you would need 2 dishes, dish 500 for 110/119 and a 2nd dish pointed at 61.5 that's what I have for my SkyAngel/supers subscription. Jim

    no more 3ABN on Sky Angel?

    Not always so... if you signed up under a Dish Network lease plan the dish belongs to them and if you cancel or downgrade from AT60 or larger package to alacart, and or sky angel only or cancel they may want the lnb unit back. A major pain if it's on your roof and you don't want to get up...

In all three cases I did not include premium...
