    SC DSR 500 upgrade letter

    Sure it's hit & miss. That's not the offer. There will be a variety of factors involved in whether you would be successful here. Does your computer ever freeze up? I'm sure you don't try to get an exchange for that. My only thought on this is that if you're going to threaten to cancel, you...

    SC DSR 500 upgrade letter

    1. You live in the States so it's not even $100 for you. Don't be sp cheap. It's a good offer. 2. Not ethical - it's people who do things like this that escalate costs for everyone else in the long run. 3. A possibilty but expect to shell out a few bucks. 4. Again, not ethical; however, I...

    SC phoning HDD20X subs

    Offers are always better for new subs. I believe that they do throw in $50 worth of PPV credits.

    You can just get the basic, standard elliptical dish (equivalent to 60 cm or about 24 in.). You are close to Canada so would not have difficulty getting a signal. The round dishes are obsolete unless you can find an old or used one. I believe that there is a larger elliptical dish but harder to...

    Any US actions against a subscriber?

    Coronation Street, for example, has no distribution rights in the U.S. This probably doesn't present a problem if no U.S. broadcaster has purchased rights to show it. However, if you are watching a show for which distribution rights have been purchased by a U.S. broadcaster, the Canadian...

    Will any tripod work for mounting 75cm elliptical dish?

    This is the tripod SC sells for its dish. It looks rather identical. SC: RS: The following is sold at The Source by Circuit City (formerly Radio Shack) in Canada and the description states that it accepts masts only up to 1 3/4 in. I would assume that the tripod would need to be...

    SC Programming question

    Superstations do come with Movies but the question was whether you could get them without Movies. Since Family Channel is not available through SC as a stand-alone, the point is moot. Family Channel is an included channel with Fun Stuff. Fun Stuff seems to be the determining bundle for getting...

    SC Programming question

    The answer is yes, definitely. SC has also had an ongoing promotion for a number of years (renews in September) where you get the Superstations (excluding WGN) for free if you are a subscriber to the Fun Stuff bundle. There has been some suggestion in the past that only "longer term" subscribers...
