    will a 5 sat lnb work with swm?

    Thanks. That's what I thought. I'm on a la quinta inn installation and they sent a regular lnb with the swm distribution. Morons.

    will a 5 sat lnb work with swm?

    I need to know if a regular 5 satellite lnb will work if you have a swm switch with the power inserter.

    Directv and copper shielded coax

    There's no foil on this coax. Just the copper shielding, directly touching the plastic sheath.

    Directv and copper shielded coax

    No, it was copper shielded RG-6. I assumed it was 59 over the phone, but when I got to his house, it's RG-6, swept up to 3000 megahertz just like every other "satellite approved" RG-6 coax we buy. It wasn't the Radio Shack special that always had the copper shielding, it was RG-6 with a stiff...

    Directv and copper shielded coax

    I have a customer who had Directv come out for an install, and the tech looked at the coax that was pre-wired and told the customer that copper shielded coax causes the HD channels to have problems. I've never run across copper shielded RG-6 coax in the 9 years I've installed Dish Network and...

    Good deal NFL-ST

    I tried calling over the weekend, and was offered $5.00 a month off my bill for 6 months. On the second call, I was offered $75.00 worth of discounts over 6 months. The third phone call, was $60.00 in credits. I decided to wait until the normal weekday business hours, and today the CSR from the...

    Alabama being a 10 point underdog is almost as much of a joke as people thinking Oklahoma is the number 2 team in the nation.

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    How is beating a team in overtime an indictment of a team? Who do you honestly believe LSU played harder? Who do you honestly believe LSU wanted to beat more? Alabama was on the road, against a team that is playing the number one team in the nation, who would pick that one game out of the entire...

    And anyone who claims that the Texas-Oklahoma game isn't neutral is mistaken. Norman is 5 miles closer to Dallas than Austin is. Exactly half of the tickets are given to each team to sell. I live in Fort Worth, and I've seen how many Oklahoma fans drive down I-35 and US-75 to come to this game...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    Before Spurrier went to Florida, the Gators were never relevant. Bama has been down for the past 10 years or so, but that has as much to do with NCAA scholarship reductions as anything. Which, by the way, were more severe than the sanctions called for, but that's another story. So you tell me...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    Wow, you are either very deluded, or very biased, Hart. In 1926, the exact same organizations that named Bama national champs in '25 named them champs in '26. I don't know where you get the idea that Bama didn't win the title that year. Bama split the title with Minnesota in '34. Or does neither...

    7?? You are ignorant. You must be from Florida, that inability to count might explain Meyer's need to run up scores....he doesn't know how many he needs. You do realize that split national titles count...they didn't take those polls because they had nothing better to do. And we aren't even...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    And you have the audacity to bring up the '06 Gators, yet criticize Alabama for close games...? Circular logic is just dumb. In '06 your mighty Gators beat Tennessee by 1 point, lost to Auburn, beat Georgia by 7, beat Vanderbilt by 6, beat South Carolina by 1 on a blocked extra point and a...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    12-0 is impressive, thanks for proving my point, Hart. But really, both of your national championships have been after having to beg for a chance to play for it. Remember '96, after losing to Florida State, and begging to play them again?? Remember how in '06, Meyer spent 2 weeks screaming at...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    And Oklahoma getting placed ahead of Texas is an atrocity. One dimensional teams without a defense will never win a championship. It'll be another BCS face plant for the Sooners, if they handle their business with Missouri. Which, the last couple of years, has been hard for most teams to do late...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    Florida beating Bama by 30? Hart, you must be smoking some pretty strong narcotics....but anyway, you can't run up the score when you're losing, so no criticism of Meyer and the "let's impress the moronic voters" mentality. Seriously, you need to learn what wins games and championships in...

    Sabres, no offense is unstoppable. December 6th will show Florida's offense held in check. Tough, hard hitting, disciplined defense can stop any offense.

    Well, actually, the Big 10 went 3-5 in bowl games last year. The Big 12 went 5-3, which isn't bad, but definately not great. SEC was 7-2.

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    But the Big 12 hasn't played anyone but themselves. How do we know how good they really are? They've all played each other, we have 3 10-1 teams, but how do you measure the strength of a conference against other conferences with nothing else to go on? We say the Big 10 isn't as good because they...

    I do find it interesting that voters penalize Ohio State for their showings in the BCS games, but don't penalize Oklahoma for the same problems. USC gets the benefit of the doubt when they blow a game a year because they win their BCS games. So voters definately let the previous bowl games...

    Ok, then, if you think OU would beat Texas today, my argument would be that if Texas had had a week off before playing Tech, and they'd played Tech in Austin, they would have won. Hypotheticals don't work.

    The coaches have Oklahoma number 2. Texas should be number 2. Oklahoma should be 3, Florida should be 4. It'll be interesting what the BCS rankings are.

    Hart, no one's "whining" about running up scores. It's simply classless, and transparent. But that's ok, I know you think Florida's unbeatable because they scored 70 against...drumroll, please.. THE CITADEL!! And I can't recall a single time anyone's been able to run up the score against my...

    NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

    Wasn't someone arguing with me last week about how Oklahoma doesn't run up the score...? Still transparent. And, Mccoy, my friend, Florida still has to get past my Tide...you know, the only 11-0 team in college football that's from a BCS conference. That team that somehow manages to bumble to a...
