    OTA EPG Info Incorrect or Displaying 'Digital Service'

    Here in Cedar Rapids, IA, 20-00 (Ch 20 KWKB over satellite) has correct guide data. However, 20-01 (KWKB OTA) guide data is actually for KWTV out of Oklahoma City.

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    Were you chat people given a reference number to use with the rebate?

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    I didn't even get an order number, but I found my order number by clicking on "My Shipments".

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    I wasn't given a number. If it turns out I need one, I'll call them back when it's time to fill out the rebate.

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    Also, my CSR said the rebate was a prepaid MasterCard, not American Express. She may have been mistaken. I don't care too much either way. She also said the card would arrive in 30 days after the rebate was processed.

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    I was just told to fill out the rebate online. It wasn't clear whether I had to wait 45 days to fill it out or if i had to fill it out within 45 days. I suspect the form will be at dish.com/getslingadapterreward (which just says "The system is currently unavailable, please try again later"...

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    Thank you. I did this and the process was completely painless.

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    I called and the CSR told me that I could only get the rebate if I purchased through a retailer. Obviously he's not right but didn't feel like trying to convince him otherwise. I'll probably just try again tomorrow when things are more settled. What number are people calling? I tried...

    HH motor on Primestar Oval??

    I've done exactly this with a DG 380. It's been working great for over a year. I bought a foot of clear flexible pvc tubing at the hardware store (probably 1.25" diameter) and cut pieces of it to shim the motor shaft.

    Analog signal, KU

    I'm not getting a signal...

    Analog signal, KU

    Yep. Honest-to-goodness analog. Attached is a pic. Note my analog receiver is tuned to "38.7", which is 1387 IF + 10600 LO = 11987 MHz.

    Analog signal, KU

    Standard Ku Analog TPs are 11720, 11740, etc. 121W is apparently one of the exceptions. If 18, 19, and 20 don't work, Ch 14 might be 11980 and ch 15 might be 12000, so you could try those as well. My analog receiver is pretty much completely manual, so I don't know much about how a nicer Ku...

    Analog signal, KU

    There is one on 121 right now at 11987 V (TR 19?).

    question about 58w

    That must be a channel that used to be there but isn't anymore. Lyngsat doesn't list it, and I don't see it here (I get the 11477 transponder loud and clear).
