    Looking for Old Style Shaw Dual Quad 75E LNB?

    Showtime - I PM you. I REALLY want a new one or used if I had to. I'm getting no signals during the hot day now. I apologize for starting the thread, going on a trip, and my problem was gone when I got back. Now it's back bad. Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you. Have a great...

    Looking for Old Style Shaw Dual Quad 75E LNB?

    I am looking for the old style Dual Quad LNB for the 75E Dish. I think mine could be flaky because each year as winter comes to a close, I start to get some flaky signal from time to time on certain channels even though dish is peaked. It is a nearly 7 year old LNB. Therefore, I'm hoping...

    Shaw Old Style Quad LNB for 75 Dish Size?

    I believe my old-style Quad LNB (2 satellites only) for 75 size dish is going flaky. However, no one seems to have the old LNBS, especially for the 75E dish. Does anyone know of a source, or happen to have one of these used lying around? I appreciate your time. Than kyou.

    Palm Desert Ca

    I wonder if Shaw has made some kind of changes recently? Family in Palm Desert area is still getting the signal in/out on certain HD channels due to the low noise db number.

    Palm Desert Ca

    I have family in that same area, Palm Springs area, and they were setting up Shaw this weekend. They are getting high signal levels, but the noise db is only about 5.2 on the HD channels, and 7.0 on the SD channels. Therefore, the HD channel reliability has been off/on. They have 75sized...

    Is Shaw 630 Receiver Reliable?

    Thanks for that review!! Hopefully I get a good one. My 530 worked fine for 5.5 years. So when you say cleared the event log, do you mean deleted every show on the receiver? I see people mention that on various sites. Sounds like a bit of a bummer to delete your shows, but at least I know...

    Is Shaw 630 Receiver Reliable?

    I had my Shaw 530 receiver quit working today. (HD DVR from a few years ago). It worked fine over the years considering I mainly used it for the unique content from the north. I have thinking about buying the 630 to replace it, however, is it pretty reliable? Is playback smooth? I've read...

    Shaw Signal Issue

    Yes, I know this but I haul it down when I visit the south for a couple weeks. Yes, the spare dish is big ,but I like keeping my TV. I mean, I'm paying my sub, so no point in leaving the receiver at home where no one is watching. I've been in the same spot 10 days and had no issues until when...

    Cost of Additional Radios in January?

    A lot of news articles seem to suggest the standard package will be $19.99 come January that will include Internet fees too. However, I am on a lifetime plan with primary radio. My only real concern is how much my additional radios are going to increase each month? I have two of them at...

    Sirius Lifetime Subscription

    Early in 2011 I switched my primarily sub to Lifetime while it was still just $499. Glad I did now that it is $699. Furthermore, 1-2 years ago they often had it down to $399 and no royalty fees. That was really the time to jump in.

    New Lineup Coming May 4th!

    Maybe XM modules updated presets most of the time and fewer Sirius modules? THe sirius modules in Mercedes seemed not to update.

    Audio Pops / Clipping after update on Sirius Radios?

    My two cars Sirius built in radios updated fine on Wednesday. I had to update the presets, but that was no worry. However...I've noticed audio pops & clipping on several channels including The Bridge, Willie's Roadhouse, etc. Has anyone else noticed this? A few other channels seem perfect...

    Thing is most brokers aren't bad. Canam certainly is, IMHO.

    BEV sucks how they charge you so strangely, when you cancel. 30 day requirements, and then they screwed up and still charged me wrong, and now i have to wait a few years for a refund.

    starchoice pvr receiver

    I just got the 530 today, and it's a bit old fashioned, but hopefully it will be ok. QUESTION though - Trick play isn't working for me. If I rewind and play a live channel, the video becomes distorted. I restarted it a couple times, and the same thing. Recorded programs from DVR list play...

    I'm going to be ticked if BEV signal comes back to the far south after I ordered Starchoice. ha-ha.

    US Nets on SC

    If you have SD only receiver and you subscribe to east and west, you can choose Buffalo or Detroit east and Spokane or seattle west. Not both. If you have HD, choose buffalo and spokane SD, because HD is detroit and seattle.

    starchoice question

    You can just have one dish. The current starchoice dish (available in 2 sizes) receives programming from two closely spaced together satellites.

    starchoice pvr receiver

    Good question. ha-ha. Yeah, I just spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on a dish and the DSR530. I'm going to hope for the best. I know it won't work as well as the Bell HD DVRs, but if it can get the job done more or less, I'll be happy.

    Nimiq 4 strength

    One thing to note is that for many of us (depending on location) there isn't much left at 91 degrees either. That has been messed up a long time too.

    Plus, even Canadians who simply take BEV to the south part of the year, will probably want to change to starchoice or something, or put their account on hold, when not home. I agree, BEV will be losing money.

    Can't seem to mount on roof, can you mount on trunk?

    On my old car, the molding around the window isn't going to allow me to mount it on the roof and run the cable correctly. Can I instead mount it on the trunk lid like a convertible? Thanks.
