If he has it out on the patio, it may be too far for an HDMI signal, or it may be an older analog set. If the patio set is HD, running component video and audio might be the best option. Component is easier to run at longer distances.

Is anyone using a Slingbox with a Panasat 2700A or similar receiver? We are trying to set it up at work (we use it for SC ETV satellite classes). Video looks fine, but trying to get the remote control working (mainly channel up/down). Are there any known codes for it? Thanks.

I've been holding out for one of these to simplify taping on our DVD recorder, so the review is very encouraging. I think I have an idea why some channels would come in better on the DTVPal and others on the Zenith at Scott's location. The three channels he reported as better on the DTVPal...

How about using a Channelmaster JoinTenna for channel 20 and putting a terminating F connector on the channel 20 input?

Please enter me as it would be nice for the kids on trips. Thanks SatelliteGuys!

Please enter me. We have 2 1/2 year old twins and take lots of pictures for far-away family members.

I'd love to take a year off from paying Dish! Please enter me in the drawing.

As a precaution, you should get the receiver numbers from the seller before purchasing. Then, you can call Dish and make sure the receiver can be activated, and has no outstanding balanaces or is not under lease.

Always nice to see an enhancement in the America's Top Shopping Channels package. :rolleyes:

You should be able to call Dish and change your service address to the RV park (include a lot # in case someone else staying there is using Dish). When you return, you can change it back, and your locals will revert back to whatever you get now. If you are just wanting network service, and...

Great giveaway. I've been interested in getting into FTA. Bainbridge, GA

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! Santa, after the presents are all delivered, and you and Mrs. Claus are ready for a vacation where it's warm, just remember I'm only 20 miles from Florida and that you can lighten the load a bit by leaving that FTA system from Sadoun here. We'll...

There is another possibility. Some low power TV stations that carry religious or shoipping networks 24/7 are fed by Dish or Directv receivers. There are also some TV translators fed by satellite, if they cannot get a reliable OTA signal. In either situation, it could be possible for a...

The rules for educational videotaping are different than the scenario proposed above (recording a program for a friend). Recording a show fr your own personal use is legal per the Betamax ruling. Giving it to someone else, especially someone who does not purchase the programming source would...

As an aside to the WALB situation, the station has actually posted a letter on their website from the General Manager stating that they have permission to carry the station in significantly viewed counties (http://www.walb.com/Global/story.asp?S=5041664). Of course Dish is under no obligation...

I was born in the Quad Cities, grew up in Ottumwa, spent two years at graduate school in Cedar Falls, and a few months in Lamoni. But for the last 9 years, I have lived in the south. Also, it appears Mastermesh and I are fellow alumni as I went to NE Missouri State (before the name change...

I'd post in the FTA forum, as tese guys would have the definitive answer. I think you would be able to hook up an FTA receiver to the existing dish? One of the cheap ones would probably do the job. I believe the audio channels are also FTA which would probably be nice when nothing is going on...

If they have another house in the Charleston market, their best option would be to change their service address to that home and leave the billing address at their primary residence. The service address is what determines the market you are placed in. That said, in the future Dish may add...

ABC OTA is rather tough in Quincy. There is no ABC affiliate in the market, and the nearest station is 70 miles away in Kirksvile, MO (KTVO 3). Once the significantly viewed rules are implemented, Dish will be able to import KTVO. Until then, it's a big antenna or basic cable.

Port St. Joe is right at the edge of WTVY's predicted Grade B contour. Many addresses should be clear of it, but some in the northern part of that zip code will not. Those in the clear can get any distant CBS, including Atlanta. Once the "significantly viewed" rules are implemented, he...
