Interesting - I am going to go through this soon myself. I am moving in about 2-3 months and will likely have to get FiOS for internet but would like to keep Directv because of the international channel package. I am contemplating staying with Directv (and just getting internet from Verizon)...

I sure hope so - I have a Harmony remote and don't need my DirecTV turning the TV off when I switch sources!

Why do people assume that because they find a channel to be useless and junk, that everyone feels the same way about that channel?

Thanks.. and just watching it they said it was on their "public interest" tier and is available to anyone subscribing to HD. (Unfortunately the channel isn't in HD though.)

Arirang TV, the English language Korean channel based in Seoul is now part of the Korean package on channel 2095. I just noticed it this morning and it looks like it launched today. Looks like it's a big event for the channel as the channel is promoting the hell out of them being on DirecTV...

Oh, well - I don't miss it. I felt like I grew up with the channel when it was 24/7 weather and now it seems like it's anything but. Even their web site looks like Buzzfeed. They can go back to spending time making up storm names - I haven't watched them for quite some time now. I'm sorry...

Well, we got our answer. $2 is the increase so that means the package will be $28.99.

If my regional sports fee is already $2, does this mean it will go down to $1.82? :D Anyway, looks like my total increase will be $8 or so. $5 for the Premiere and $2 for the International package (which I guess I expected and don't really mind) and $1 on the movie premiums. Because my...

According to Directv's website, tvN is being added to the Korean package on Dec 16, Channel 2086. Directv has really cornered the market with Korean programming on satellite. Since adding KBS and now tvN, there hasn't been any price increase to the package yet and hopefully it'll stay that way...

Oh, really? I need to contact them.. It's annoying to have 2 account numbers! I have one lifetime radio.. The others are quarterlies.

Oooooh, I remember IT... those were the XM hey days... I think I am in my 12 year of XM subscribership and I always preferred XM programming.. Now, I have to admit that I prefer no DJs or minimal DJ activity but remember the XM decades channels' DJs? I absolutely loved them... 70s had Sari...

I read that it jumps all the way up to $167.96 after Oct. 31. So it's a whopping $8 savings? :) As much as I loved Center Ice, I moved on to NHL GameCenter a few years ago which I like a lot, but it is delivered over internet and you need a device (PS3/Xbox/Roku) in order to watch it on TV...

Thanks.. that's why I stink at this. Going to give this a try.

Okay, I think you all are right... Now I am thinking again that it is misaligned. Block 1 and 3 are blank. Block 2 says 77. Block 4 says 118. If I recall, I think 77 used to be in Block 1, right? Also, when I do a signal check - I get locked on 118 and 77, but when I go to 72, tp32 - I...

I think maybe I am hoping for an easy solution. :) Your guess sounds very plausible.

Well, I checked the setup today with someone to help - and upon inspection of the bolts, etc. - it really looks like it was not touched at all. :-/ The skew and elevation is correct and I am starting to think that the dish wasn't moved out of alignment and maybe the LNBF is now bad. Is that...

I confess that this crossed my mind... then fear of being accused of arson set in. :D I approve of your darker side. By the way, thank you all who have replied to this and gave me a smile and laugh over many of the responses. Part of my post was also to vent as well and this thread has been...

Yes, I did keep all of the cable up to where it was coupled. I threw their end back onto their property. :) I'll be honest, I'm starting to suspect that, but not sure. The part of the cable on their property looks like it was fastened against the walls of their roof as if it was done...

LOL Yes I did.. I wasn't going to get into that part - but I tracked it back to a house an astounding 3 houses away! The houses aren't that far apart, so it's not like it's huge lots away but shoot, still... I disconnected it and saw that it was coupled with a female/female connector close to...

Thanks.. I agree I think I'll leave the tampering out should I call them. I don't have the protection plan but it seems like it's not very expensive for them to come out to realign. At least I'm hoping that's all it is. The external 118 seems to flow through. I can get to the dish, but every...

Well, I didn't say that they shouldn't - but was wondering if anyone else had experience with this and I guess I was wondering how much that would cost. $15 is very reasonable!

I received a Complete Signal Loss error today (Signal Code 11-12-11) and upon inspection of my setup, I discovered that my dishes were tampered with. I have an eastern arc setup plus an additional dish connected for 118. I used only 2 of the 3 receiver ports but someone had connected a cable...

I hadn't paid attention and just noticed the new HD apps... Wow, I miss the old apps in the sense of the sports team apps the most. I could easily see the score and the stats, etc.... I've read that the app store is gone for good. It looks nice, but I think I preferred functionality over form.

CCTV is state owned and I wouldn't call their coverage that objective by any means - perhaps they get close to it with stories that serve absolutely no interest to the forbidden city, but I wouldn't consider them to be any more objective than any other news source reporting on items that are...

That's a killer - there was no active notification at all. You only found out when you tried to watch the channel on Aug 7.
