What satellite will SB51 broadcast from? I won't have to use 61.5... will I? If so, I will need to cut down some trees.

Atlant Spotbeam Atlanta SD locals (like CW, PBS ect) were on a spotbeam. You are right about the Atlanta HD locals... they were CONUS. What stinks for me is that they appear to be on a spotbeam now.

DOOOOHHHHH It looks like my Atlanta local gravy train has come to a screeching HALT. So... is that post telling me that Atlanta locals have gone from CONUS to the Ceil spotbeam? If so... I am outside of the spotbeam and out of luck (I guess)... strange thing is that I used to be in the...

Ciel2 I am located in deep south georgia... last time I checked I was in the Atlanta spotbeam, but that was before Ciel2. Is the Atlanta Ciel2 spotbeam supposed to have about the same footprint as the old Atlanta spotbeam? I have a message on the Atlanta local stations that says...

As I think about that... That is a pretty stupid question... one would think that if you are pointed at the right satellite then I would definitely be zeroed in on all of the transponders on that satellite.

Eddie... I appreciate your help.... should I be focusing in on any particular transponders at the 110, 119 and 129 birds?

Thanks for the responses... I have a Dish 1000 (I got it about two years ago... right when the VIP 722 came out) and I know that I am pointed at the 129, not the 61.... What other satellites should I be looking for and what transponders should I align to?

I cannot get my second VIP 722 remote to work. I have consulted the manual, but cannot make heads or tails of that explanation. Could one of you tell me how to get my second VIP 722 remote to work again. Thanks in advance. Joe

I live in South Georgia... however, I have "moved" to Atlanta several years ago. Recently, I actually did move from one area of my town to another area and did the installation myself. However, I cannot remember which satellites and transponders I need to focus in on to receive the...

Thanks nm

I remember seeing a google maps application on here a year or so ago that assists in aligning your Dish. ...basically, you put in your address and a google map picture comes up which shows the general direction to point the Dish. Thanks in advance, Joe

That is what I think, but I cannot find where it splits. I am meeting with the guy who built the house today... maybe he will have some insight on it.

Good idea... I have a Dish 1000... running a VIP 722. I will only need HD on one tv... SD ok (mirrored) on all other tvs. Also, I just met with a Dish install guy... here is an interesting senerio that I would very much appreciate you all weighing in on: The cable box out in the yard...

I just bought a new house... the cable tv line from the road is run underground to the middle of the yard where there is a junction box. The cable then continues underground the the wiring hub underneath the stairwell. Question... when I set up my dish... can I just tie into that junction...

Thanks, fellas Currently waiting on the install guy.

Here is my equipment: Equipment: Dish 1000.2 KIT DISH 1000.2 KIT DISH 500 Leased VIP622 System Currently, I live in S. Ga. However, I will be "moving" to Atlanta. Is this the equipment that I need to get locals in HD? Thanks, SRS

Is there anyway to know if Atlanta's local stations will ever be moved to a spotbeam? I am thinking of signing up with Dish and "moving" to Atlanta, but want to make sure I will have Atlanta locals for the length of my contract.

Thanks That is EXACTLY what I needed to hear. I live in Thomasville. Thanks again for the help. ...SBturner - if Thomasville is covered by the 129 Conus beam, Adel definitely will be.... it is further north. You are good to go too.

Thank you all for your insight. Lakebum: the only 129 CONUS map that I can find shows that the CONUS signal cuts off (or weakens) somewhere in north florida or south georgia... the detail on the map is not that great. Does anyone know from experience if you can get a strong 129 signal in...

I live in deep southwest Georgia (basically Tallahassee, Florida). I have been trying to decide whether to make the move to Dish for quite some time. I really want to sign up with Dish, but it doesn't offer NBC, FOX, ABC, etc in HD in my area (and I don't want to fuss with an OTA setup)...

Thanks for the reassurance.... So... they don't blackout the GT game to the ATL market if there isn't a sell-out? That is one of my biggest concerns. If not... it looks like I'll be "lighting the candle" on Dish. Very appropriate example, by the way... I'm a huge GT fan and losing the...

What exactly is the blackout policy for E* and ESPN? I'm about to purchase DN, but don't want to lose out on sporting events I could get on cable. BTW, I'm in Atlanta.

I live in the southern part of Georgia... not in Atlanta's dma. However, I am moving to Atlanta in the next few months. I want a HD DVR with the ability to pick up Atlanta's local stations when I move there. (My neighbor down the street says he picks up the 129 bird just fine). What...

All right... this is guy I need to talk to.... ...so, are you saying that I WILL be able to get NBC HD, ABC HD, CBS HD and FOX HD if I "live" in Atlanta (even though my house will be 250 miles to the south hypothetically speaking :) ) Oh... one other thing... what kind of dish/receiver do I...

Omega... and others... If Omega gets Thomasville locals, it would stand to reason that I would get Atlanta locals... correct? I live in Thomasville. Also... Omega - do you get the Atlanta stations in HD?
