    Chat Room / Vista Fix!

    The way I have done a clean install with an upgrade disk, is to start the upgrade disk from scratch. At some point, it will ask for the previous software disk, since it can't find it. Remove the upgrade disk, insert the old software disk. In a few moments, the software asks you to remove the...

    Cox Communications will no long carry the local ABCHD

    You guys are lucky you have OTA to fall back on. Cox dropped the H-A chanel in New Orleans, the NBC affiliate. The OTA signal has been down since hurricane Katrina, and won't be back untill some time in the later half of 2007. So, no more NBC-HD. Oh, and by the way, a good many people have...

    4dtv id number

    Well, I can't speak for all. But, I live in Metairie, La. (A New Orleans suburb.) My 922 and my 920 did just fine after the hurricaine. Our lights were out for a least a week, but the batteries held in both units. I did lose my dish and had to have it re-installed. It's a 9ft Laux beta solid...

    Cox New Orleans Scrambles HD Local Chs

    Well. Just so every one knows. It looks like Cox has seen the error of it's way. And the QAM tuners have been returned to their their former glory. They are now working OK. But they were blocked for about a week. Maybe Cox wanted know how many were out there. Don H.

    Cox New Orleans Scrambles HD Local Chs

    Hi Folks! It appears that Cox New Orleans has scrambled the local HD chanels. This means they can't be seen with a QAM tuner. Has this happened anywhere else? I don't think anyone has challenged them on that. Thanks. Don H.

    Well, Right now we are limited to HBO east and west, Showtime (west only) and Starz east and west. You get these chanels free provided you already subscribe to their digital services. As you mentioned, there is the Discovery Theatre and Wealth HD. I think Discovery is about $30 a year...

    Will COX add ESPNHD2 in Oklahoma?

    I live in New Orleans. We havn't heard anything about them adding anything. They did move 3 Premium channels to digital only to "free up spectrum". We have heard that Cox is dragging it's feet about ESPN2. ESPN wants too much moola for it. Don H

    Motorola Security Screws and Battery Replacement

    I'm not familiar with that reciever. But, my satellite guy told me that if you take the lithium battery out of a 920, or 922., you will lose your keys. And then it really will be a boat anchor. That may be why there are the bastard screws. I don't know where to point you. But maybe Motorola...

    922 VideoCipher Question

    This may sound dumb. But make shure you have the ac off from both recievers before you remove that VCII from one receiver and plug it into the other. If you don't, you will probably blow the module. Don H.
