--Hi, guys. I am about to re-start my FTA hobby. While I never had trouble setting up a receiver to pick up one satellite, I would like to "advance" to either a motorized system or get an antenna like the torioidal T90. I've asked a local DirecTV/Dish Network if he would be able to help me...

Hi, LailaS@DISH. Okay, yes, we did watch a movie called "Spy" with Melissa Mccarthy. However, when I saw that charge on my bill and it read "IP Spy", it made me think of "Internet Protocol", lol. Does the "IP" part of that just mean that it was streamed? Because I "think" that was an "on...

Okay, just a sec.

--Hi, guys. I got a strange charge on my Dish Network bill called IP Spy. It's under the "One time charge" section of the bill. Can anyone tell me what it is? I Googled and Binged "Dish Network IP Spy" and nothing shows. I did a search on the Dish Network site, and got nothing. Nothing...

--Thanks for all the great posts, guys. Ultimately, it came down to what store had what gaming console available, as I've heard just about as many horror stories about problems with the 360 as I have the PS3 (though, I expect lemons in every bunch). We chose the PS3. So far, the only games...

Great info, guys. I am really leaning towards the 360, but I think she would prefer the PS3, because she can still play PS2 games on it. Thanks.

Hi, all. We are thinking of buying either a 360 or PS3, and the deciding factor will be what has more games available for online play. So, for those folks out there that have both of these consoles, and play them online, what is better? Thanks for your help. I'm kind of new to these new game...

Yeah, same here. Just a freaky fluke of electronic nature...who knows, maybe I have some weird Dish Network psychic ability to see channels that don't exist on the 110 and 119 sats, haha. But seriously, I will not worry about it anymore, and either get a new sat. dish with 129 on it, or just...

Hi, yes, there was indeed programming and not just a blank screen. Can't remember the name of the program, but it was a woman on a kids show. I've seen her on 3ABN quite a bit when I had FTA.

Thanks, Iceberg. Regardless, though, it was certainly up there at least for a little bit (part of April 8th, maybe around 3 to 5 pm or so?), as I am quite sure I didn't dream this, haha. Maybe it didn't get listed in the uplink report, I dunno. I don't know how my system would have picked up...

--Hi. Well, I had only had Dish Network installed for a few hours when I found 9710. The next day, the channel was just gone. Nobody messed with the dish, because the installer had already left my house, and it was probably a few hours or so after he left when I discovered the channel there...

--Hi. No, this was not a Dishmover. I've lived here for several years.

Pics. --Hi, Pepper. Here are some pictures of what I found out. Also, just looking at the dish, it is at least labeled a Dish 500. Hope this is what you need. Thanks.

--Nope, nothing was touched or moved. What it boils down to is that the first few hours after installation, I was flipping through the channels and there was 3ABN, 9710, which at the time was some kids show with Brenda Walsh (a regular on this channel). I went to bed that night, and when I...

--Thanks for the help. I am looking at a DirecTV dish that I have from previous service labeled "Phase III" with a "built-in multi-switch with 4 outputs". The size is 18x20, and it has three LNB's. I could probably use this for 129, right? If so, how would I wire it up to the receiver? My...

Just got off the phone with DN and they said that I'm not supposed to bet that channel with the dish I have. I have a dual LNB for the 110 and 119 satellites. They said that the 3ABN channel is on 61.5 satellite. That is weird, though. How in the world can I get a channel that is on a...

Good. Did a switch check and they're good. Guess I'll call Dish Network and find out what the deal is. Thanks.

:(--Hi, all. Late last night, I noticed 3ABN was gone (channel 9710). There is not even a channel 9710 slot now. I emailed Dish Network last night but have not heard from them yet. Has Dish Network dropped this channel? Thanks.

--Well, it turns out there is a place in town that has Dish Network advertised on their sign out front, but they said they no longer install it, so they referred me to another business south of town, but they also stopped doing Dish Network installs. I then remembered that Sears had Dish...

--Hi, all. I looked on the Dish Network website, and also in the Yellow Pages, but cannot find any installers for Dish Network. Is there somewhere on the 'net I can find local installers? Or perhaps there are some installers on this site near 74728 (Broken Bow, OK) that could get in touch...

--I just thought of something, though. Say I buy an LNB with dual outputs, what if one receiver is on a transponder that is transmitting horizontally, and the other receiver is on a transponder that is transmitting vertically? How would that work?

Hi. Thanks. Yeah, that is probably what I will do...buy a dual LNB, that way, I won't have to mess with a splitter...also, I just realized that one receiver would have to be on all the time so that the other receiver would be able to receive programming. Now to buy a dual LNB.

--Hi, all. I am going to put up an FTA KU dish for a friend so he can watch all of the good programs on G18/123°. The thing is, there are going to be two receivers on one dish/LNB. What would be the best thing to do? Should I just hook up a splitter/diplexer to the LNB and then have the two...

--Hello, all. As of last week, I had the local installers install a 20x22 inch, 3 LNB dish (Choice Xtra with DVR). While I love my new DirecTV programming, I have noticed I get quite a bit of rain fade (I used to have Dish Network, and I had virtually the same amount of rain fade). Can anyone...

--Ok, cool. No, I'm not getting HD yet, I still have a plain ol' JVC 32" non HD. They will be installing the system tomorrow afternoon, maybe today if someone cancels. I figured I would go ahead and get the DVR option, since I am always missing shows I want to watch.
