    AAD specials?

    Has anyone renewed their distant networks package from AAD recently? When I renewed my annual subscription last year they offered 13 months for the annual price. I will call and ask of course, but any heads-up from the forum would still be useful.

    Multiple Dwelling Unit question

    Mom lives in a retirement home and they have a rack of 311 receivers, each tuned to a specific DN channel. Each resident receives the 73 channel package on their TV. There is no STB, residents simply change channels like they would if they subscribed to analog cable. It is actually quite a...

    Tudors on BBC America

    I recorded, but have not yet watched, the marathon of the Tudors this past weekend. I assume this was all of season 1. An episode is scheduled to be shown Wednesday night. Is this just a repeat of an episode that I recorded, or is it the first episode of a new season? TIA.

    These advertisements in audio on the forum are really annoying. Is there a way to turn them off?

    test LNB from inside house?

    I am viewing 119 only, using DP301 and dual legacy lnb. I have lost the signal completely. I am sure that it is not a receiver problem because it works on another dish, lnb, and associated cables, but otherwise I don't know what the problem is. I have a spare LNB that, in principle, I could...

    AAD payment question

    I subscribe to the AAD distant network package, and I need to update my credit card info with them. Do they have an email address that I could use for this purpose? I would rather not phone them, and I don't want to call undo attention to my location. :) Also, would there be any problem with...

    which tree is the culprit?

    I am pretty sure that my very narrow LOS is being partially blocked by a tree top or branch on the large tract of land adjacent to my property, because the signal is generally about 15 points lower than it should be, and it fluctuates noticeably in the wind, but does not move when calm I would...

    footprints and maps

    A few questions: 1. Digiblur, I love your maps, but I'm not sure that I understand the contours for 119. I live in the northeast fringe of the footprint, yet nicely within your green lines. Yet I need a 30 inch dish to get a good signal. Also, I have seen some other footprint maps for...

    signal fluctuation DP301

    What is the normal amount of signal fluctuation? I am running a DP301, using an extra large dish to compensate for my edge of the footprint location. Signal strength is satisfactory. But it fluctuates a fair amount. On windy days, it will fluctuate 5 or 6 points as I watch it. But even on...

    AAD local phone number?

    I would rather not phone the 800 number to order distants. Does anyone know, or know how I can get, the AAD distant nets ordering department using a non 800 number? TIA.

    AAD Info Screen Back

    I just noticed that the info screen advertising the distant channels from All American Direct is back. It even teases me saying that I might be eligible. Is everyone getting this? My service location does make me eligible for all networks, but I never bothered to sign up.
