    Okay thanks for the confirmation, seems to be the way of the future for a lot of these channels.

    Buzzr! at 97W...moved or left C-band?

    This was in an earlier thread from summer; just wanted to reconfirm from someone that Buzzr! did not return to 97W or relocate to another satellite. Thanks!

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    It may have helped that the receiver we transferred was owned and not on a lease...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    I wasn't sure either, and although the installer was fully ready to try it, even he was surprised it went as smoothly as it did; he called in to an internal line at DTV and explained the situation, they got my okay over the phone to transfer it over, we waited a couple of minutes on hold and...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    An update for everyone here: the install at the ranch property was today, and I'm happy to report everything went great. The installer was local to the area, was well aware there are a number of similar ranch type properties and had no issues with the setup. We did make a change a couple of...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    Don't think so either, but seems they are really pushing only Genie & client installs now - one Genie DVR and mini's in all other rooms.

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    The reps at 800 Directv were not helpful at all..."we only have Genies, we don't provide HD DVR's anymore, can't do separate buildings" etc. The nice lady at the local ATT store disproved all this, was able to bring up what they qualify for, and although they do have to pay for the receivers...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    Wow. In that case we are lucky there are two SWM dishes ready to go, and the coax looks to be in good shape. Nope, ain't doing any trenching in their yard, that would be a deal breaker!

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    This is helpful to know, thanks for the support here. The family will most likely be around during the install, I'm sure they'll be able to prove they are indeed all related. ;) In any case the service address is the same, there are no multiple addresses at the other buildings (i.e. Suite A...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    As soon as they decide on the programming package, I'm going to put the order in. Current offer expires in early Jan so I'd like to get them set up in the next 2-3 weeks. So it sounds like while the 2 dish setup is totally fine, it's a gray area as to whether the installer will actually rig...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    Yep, I already confused the heck out of a couple of CSR's last week haha...good idea, I won't take that route again. Appreciate the help - thanks!

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    Got it. It will definitely be the Genie & Client at the main house and two HR24's in the cottage, if we go thru with the plan. My hope is that the installer, knowing the area is rural, will be easy going enough to simply hook up everything this way; I don't know that we can rig up four rooms...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    Yep that was indeed my other thought, set everything up at the main house. The house is old, however, and I don't think the owners are too keen about having lath and plaster walls being drilled. But I will definitely let them know it's an option. Thanks! EDIT: 13 tuners - yikes! If we do...

    Install question for house & guesthouse at same address

    I am helping a family get set up with DirecTV as a new customer. The situation is unique and I did not find any current answers on the forum. They reside on a ranch property, in two separate buildings that were previously used by staff; they have since been converted to family residences...

    Orlando and Phoenix getting buzzzr September 7th

    Actually was talking with someone who recently was in the Orlando area and said Buzzr is on there, and has been for some time apparently on 65.4; Bounce is just moving to another station there, as you posted above.

    I miss DX'ing TV stations

    So you're actually able to get a signal from Buzzr's affiliate out of Chicago...that's very impressive! Hope it stays on for ya, they've got a fun week planned.

    Buzzr

    Excellent...hopefully they will re-air the Lost and Found block at some point, but at least you'll be getting BUZZR this month (as will the last of the Fox O&O's). They seem to be in demand in a lot of other markets as well, I hope Fremantle can reach agreements with them.

    C-band FTA with TiVo?

    I've actually tried this operation using a program I have called Video Redo. Joined the TS files, tho I didn't resize (I don't think I have that option) but it wasn't seamless, and it created somewhat of a corrupted file that's difficult to play back (according to a friend I shared it with)...

    C-band FTA with TiVo?

    Maybe this is asking for the world here haha, but I have just recently been getting back into C-band FTA programming, and am looking for a good DVR solution. I have an Amiko Mini HD SE, which has the time shifting and yes, it can record...but the files are huge (over 10 gigs!) and if I wanted...

    Buzzr TV on the air

    Any sign of Buzzr turning up on any FTA C-band receivers out there yet? I'm guessing it will appear with the mux at 97, with Justice, Escape, Grit, Laff, etc...
