    Bob Cooper has passed away

    First post here in a very long time... Very sorry to hear of Coop's passing. I never had the pleasure of meeting him, however, I have fond memories of Coop's Satellite Digest, and seeing him from time to time on Boresight back in the mid 80's. Really enjoy his book, 'The Pirates Behind Your...

    Fuse TV dispute

    MuchMusic was in-the-clear for many years on C-Band, on the Anik birds. I often enjoyed it more than MTV back in the day. Late 80s early to mid 90s.

    I Always so friendly as usual... It’s a tier one network so how do you go higher?

    AT&T exploring Deal to sell off DIRECTV.

    Actually, Lumen (formerly CenturyLink/Level 3) has the largest tier 1 backbone by route miles in the US.

    Cinemax GO

    The MaxGo app was retired sometime back, before HBO Max even launched. That definitely has to be some scam. There is ‘technically’ still a MaxGo, but you have to use a browser. I think that Cinemax is on it’s way out as AT&T/Warner moves toward streamlining everything under HBO Max. For all...

    This is crazy

    I live way out in the country, and have 1Gbps/1Gbps fibre from our electric co-op. They’re actually the only ISP to serve this particular area now. CenturyLink did have 1.5Mpbs or 4.0Mpbs DSL but, since fibre came through, they lost practically all the customers that their DSLAMs in the area...

    CSPAN analog still there?

    I was about to point out the same thing. It isn’t ‘public’ in the sense it is funded by government it is a ‘public service,’ provided by the cable industry.

    PBS On Demand??

    If you donate to your local public tv station, you’ll have access to all PBS content, it’s called PBS Passport. You can stream some content without donation, but all if you make a small one, I think $25 at least it is with APTV (Alabama Public TV).

    AT&T TV National Launch

    What branding is DirecTV? There’s absolutely nothing mentioning DirecTV on AT&T TV. The package names are the same and channel numbers, but Joe Six Pack doesn’t know that. Your average consumer wouldn’t get a hint of DirecTV out of it. Unless perhaps they’d had D* in the past or remembered...

    What will happen to Directv going forward

    Man, have you been under a rock? There are now ‘smart TVs’ with the FireOS, which ever Chinese outfit has licensed the ‘Toshiba’ brand name is making them now, along with Best Buy’s in-house ‘Insignia’ brand. I would expect more will follow. FireTV is Android based however.

    What will happen to Directv going forward

    I live in a county, 743 sq miles, 30,000, entire county is or will be covered. Approximately 75% as of now. And, nothing was automated regarding the installation, all manual labor, trucks, ATVs, even mules where the land is rough. It’s an exception to the rule for sure, but, it’s not ‘just’ in...

    AT&T TV National Launch

    I am glad it got some better for you. I think I’ll just stick with my DIRECTV for now, it works well and is reliable, and even with the AT&T TV, I’d have to swap back and forth all the time to do my Amazon Prime Video. Hope it works out for you. I have to go to day and ‘attempt’ to get all...

    AT&T TV National Launch

    It is AT&T not Google/AndroidTV. I have used Android TV on a Sony TV for about 3 years, and I have had both a second and third generation nVidia Shield. They are great, super fast, no lag, absolutely no problems. As a matter of fact, I tried an AirTV Mini, from Dish, it worked excellent as well...

    I tried it before I canceled DirecTV. You have 14 days in which you can cancel AT&T TV. I got it Tuesday and I am taking their sh!t back tomorrow to the store.

    AT&T TV National Launch

    This C71 was the absolute worst piece of sh!te I have ever used. I have Roku's, AppleTV's, Fire Cube, Fire Stick's, and even a nVidia Shield, I have used many different devices for streaming over the years, but this is the buggiest box I can ever recall using. I cannot imagine that this will go...
