    What we are hearing...

    If you notice the date on the list RAD posted is 10/15/07. We haven't gotten any of these or any other national channel since then. My guess is the HDNET issue has put the brakes on this roll out for now. (Legal issues tend to do that!) Whether that changes tomorrow (today) is anybodies guess...

    HDNet suing D* over package move

    I think it's going to be hard for D* to convince a judge or a jury that a tier with 4 or 5 HD Channels will be more widely distributed than a tier with 95 HD Channels. (Based on D* projected 100 Channels by year end) Plus the wording specifically says the HD tier! Also since having the current...

    HDNet suing D* over package move

    The effects from a suit like this could be significant both positive and negative. This is just speculation, but maybe this is why the HD roll out has been slow the last couple of weeks relative to the pace of the roll out of National Channels in the beginning. The last couple of weeks has only...

    I will never do business with directv again.

    I think some people may have some protections like that by virtue of where they live. Some states have very friendly consumer protection laws (NY for one) which may provide this protection, while other states are more pro business and have very limited consumer protection laws.

    I am having a strange problem

    If you have access to the switcher, try swapping the cables at the switch box. If the same set still has the problem then the problem is probably with the cable, If the problem moves to the other set, then the problem is probably the switcher.

    Sounds like you lost some or all your transponders on Sat 103B? Have you done a signal test?

    Can I cancel my service?

    Only in areas within his apartment or under his exclusive control, so if he's facing the South and can put it on a pole of his balcony or through a window he's ok, but if he's facing the North or has to mount it to the roof or external side of the building he's pretty much at the mercy of the...

    Is it my imagination or are there more Pay Per View HD channels now? Maybe those are the channels we got this week!

    Need to move dish

    In the case of a Condo the rule only applies to areas the owner has exclusive rights to ie: a balcony. If the area the dish is going is owned by the poster than the HOA can not deny placement of the dish in a area that gets reception. They can require though the Dish be placed in another area...

    5 LNB Dish

    I had half my transponders go out of my 5LNB (Old Style) dish and the tech replaced it with a Slimline also.He said D* is phasing out the older 2 part LNB dishes and when a problem is found their instructed to replace the whole thing with the Slimline rather than repair.

    Lightning Strike

    Yeah, it really does come in handy! So far except for having to replace a few GFI outlets, I haven't incurred any other expense. I have an Accidental Protection plan for my computer, which covers power surges, so that should be taken care of also! As bad as it was, the damage is either...

    Thanks! I'm trying to avoid a claim if possible, I live in FL (Hurricane Central!:)) and our Insurance companies have a history of increasing rates, or worse dropping you all together for any weather related event!! Our State legislature passed so called insurance reform which was suppose to...

I had everything all ready, H20 receivers, B-Band converters with proper signals (At the time channel 499 with searching for sattelite signal). Last Sunday disaster struck and my house was struck by lightning. Fortunately it didn't cause a...
