Thanks once again for the information. I am sure I can find out the polarity if I call them up and ask. If they send me a dual LNB I will just use that instead to make things easier though.

Thanks for that explanation on why the current one at 101w wouldn't work, and thanks for the rest of the info too. Between what you wrote and what others have told me, I think I have a pretty good idea on what needs to be done now. I have canceled my service with DTV, so loosing English-language...

Just an update, the Greek channels from DirecTV went to Home2us/GreekTV-America. MEGA Cosmos Launches on Greek TV America Satellite Platform : Greek News

It moved to Home2us/GreekTV-America. MEGA Cosmos Launches on Greek TV America Satellite Platform : Greek News

Hi, please bear with me as I am really new to this type of stuff. So the Greek language channels recently moved off of DirecTV to Home2us/GreekTV-America. Apparently you can use your old DirecTV dish and LNB to pick them up on Home2us on SES-1 at 101W. I believe my set up with DirecTV was 2...

In a follow up to this thread questioning the future of Greek programing on DirecTV, it appears that all the Greek channels, Mega Cosmos (ch. 2162), Alter Globe (ch. 2164) and GMTV (ch 2165), will be leaving DirecTV at the end of the month. A...

Yeah I realize that, but I am finding it strange that they are keeping the channels on board as of now but not making any mention of them or selling them. Assuming they can't just drop the channels yet (contracts??), wouldn't they get a benefit out of selling it to a few more subs or something...

Sorry to bring up an old thread again, but does anyone have any updates on this situation? It has been over 2 months since DirecTV removed the Greek-language channels from their site and stopped selling them shortly after. Does anyone know what their plans are with them? Right now they seem to...

Thanks for the information. Really strange that you are still able to add them, since I, as well as others who have called and emailed, have been told that it is not available to new customers. One of the email's someone received stated "I checked my resources and found that we no longer offer...

From what I have heard though, it seemed that Direct had signed a long term contract with the remaining main channels. (Mega Cosmos and Alter Globe). Of course there is no knowing if that is true. It is worth noting that both channels left Dish back in 2006 and 2007 respectively after some...

Regarding FTA channels, specifically the only FTA Greek channel in North America is state broadcaster ERT World (and more recently its related radio stations), and that is only available with a big C-band dish. Not to mention the fact that the channel itself does not really offer much in terms...

After ditching the Polish package earlier this year, it seems to me that the Greek package may be the next to go. Does anyone know what exactly is going on with the Greek package offering from DirecTV? Here is the rundown: In late November, DirecTV sent out letters informing customers that...

Is this confirmed for sure? Do you know anything about Greek channels "Mega Cosmos" and "Alter Globe" as well? They are currently on DirecTV, but it seems DirecTV has pulled the Greek package from their site all together. These two channels were previously on Dish Network as well. Thanks.

Just received a letter in the mail from DirecTV announcing that effective December 28, 2010, Greek channel "Alpha Sat" (channel 2163) will no longer be available on DirecTV. :( As a result, the price of "GreekDirect" will be reduced to $14.99/mo, and the price of "GreekDirectII" to $29.99/mo...

Thanks for the replies. I guess I will have to compare them side by side, but I just wanted to check if there was a comparison online anywhere. As for HD, I think I read somewhere that Fios is supposed to get alot more HD channels soon.

I did Google, but I cant find if the 2 offer the same channels or not. I have Comcast and I am thinking of switching to FIOS, but I want to know if FIOS carries all of the channels Comcast does. I cant find anywhere a comparison of the 2. Does anyone know?

Does anyone know how the 2 compare? Do both offer the same exact channels? How is the channel comparison? Thanks.
