    DirecTV and Sirius Sat Radio

    No problem at all. I think I replied to your message sometime yesterday. I think the reason why they no longer offer the DBS Combiner kit separately is to reduce cost, complexity and (subsequently) returns. The only thing that's needed with the HSD/DBS Kit is the RG-6 / F Connector...

    I'm Droo and I happen to work for TSS Radio. I'm the guy who people get when they email Sales. The OP is correct. The old DBS Combiner is not for HD setups and we've priced them really low because they are made for the old Outdoor Home Antenna (with the SMA connector), but also because most...

    Cartoon Network shows a LOT of Anime.. Are we sure that stuff isn't already available in HD?

    Family Guy will be in HD come this fall according to what I read... Which means it should be in HD this fall on Xbox Live Marketplace too.

    FG isn't in high def on FOX? Our Fox affil is evil so we don't have them in HD, just in digital.

    Hey Family Guy and Futurama are already in high def as far as I know. Why not on Cartoon Network? :)

    DirecTV HD Channel Lineup

    The problem is that the Coming Soon could mean tomorrow or could mean mid 2008.. :) There's still channels on that list that have been on competitors services for quite some time too.. I personally am a rather large fan of Science Channel HD. I'd love to see a list of when these networks are...

    They should be but they haven't been actually released yet in HD as far as I know, they're just 'supposed to be sometime'.

    MLB.TV blocks Red Sox games in this market too.. Friend of mine signed up in Boston since he doesn't have cable and he was blacked out.. .Guess people who want to watch their favorite team at work are just SOL too.

    I'm technically in the Boston spotbeam DMA, but I couldn't get NESN HD. That's kinda my point, NESN HD is on Spotbeam on D* last I knew, which means it won't be a 'national' channel, it'd be a regional spot beam channel, unless they decide to change that or already have.

    Won't help me unless we're talking about E* unfortunately :). I won't be doing business with D* ever again considering how they wronged me previously. EDIT: NESN doesn't want to offer to anyone who only wants to do 'partial' feeds, like just for games, it seems.. So unless D* is going to do a...

    as it sits right now NESN is in HD only in the Boston Metro DMA on D*.. That's not terribly helpful compared to E* not even having it at all. Neither helps me all that much here in Maine.

    I don't think they count because you'd have to buy them extra (Multisport, etc.) in order to have them. I really think it'd be nice if Multisport was included in the Top250, but fat chance of that happening. I think there's something like 15 RSNs uplinked in HD on E* (at least for major...

    Most cable co DVRs and HD units are so crappy that it wouldn't really matter I figure. I don't regret not paying 13$ to TW for a box anymore. They continually add up charges too. Basic went from 14 a month to 18 in the course of a year back when I had basic just for locals. I was able to...

    I'm no D* fan in the least, for relatively obvious reasons. However, the people who should be crapping their pants are the cable companies. Many of them are already at capacity and D* and E* are just throwing up more sats and changing encoding schemes in order to make people pretty damned...
