    Connecticut Locals?

    it's not their call. btw, you'll need to get waivers for the hd feeds, they can't and won't just turn them on. also, wtic, and wtnh are the ones that have to approve the waiver, so we're sh*t out of luck.

    Looking for D* Installer in Wallingford CT

    that's what it sounds like. have him put on new connectors. there's also a gel available to put on the connections before you screw them together. have him check for water in an lnb as well, though not likely. my guess is new connectors(tightened good) will solve your problem. good luck.

    East/West coast feeds in HD?

    3 things to consider: 1) if you are able to get the hd feeds, you will only be able to receive either east or west, not both. 2) You have to apply for a waiver(yes, even if you already have the sd dns feeds) you will not automatically get them. 3) if you are eligible for the mpeg4 hd...
