Try your broker first, if no luck , then your account info. is available via your ROO and SOO numbers with the receiver. Try getting in the back door to Bell via e-mail. Give them your receiver ID numbers and mention you are thinking of buying this used receiver and want to know if any...

Add to Jim's correct settings your skew at 102º.

Try putting the new smart card into the receiver and try doing a check switch. If it will check the switch, when its finished, shut off the Bell receiver with the remote and it will turn itself on and do a software update and load a guide. Worth a try.

When you apply for your Star Choice system try and have the Pacific Time Zone set up for your guide. Get the Star Choice dish # 75E which is 36"x26" and uses a 2" OD pole mount. Star Choice does not have all Sunday day games of NFL but by using their feeds from Buffalo,NY ; Detroit ; and...

Possibly a receiver mapping problem.

Should work out with your sister-in-law address being used. Have your sister-in-law get a Bell Express Vu system installed and activated at her house. Have her pay each month by direct billing to your Visa or Mastercard number. No address checking is done for credit card. As long as the money...

When in AZ. and wanting all the Canadian programs you have to have a Star Choice system with a 30" dish size for there. Contact Star Choice when back in Canada and find out the details. You could set up the receiver and have it authorized on a Star Choice antenna at a dealers store and take it...

Thank you Jumbo Dumbo. Memory doesn't cost that much that it couldn't have been in the receiver in the beginning of the planning stages and manufacturing of the present day receivers. Just another instance of poor upper management decisions. Heck, we don't want to make it too good for the end...

Thanks hiker for your reply. I just got off the phone talking with a CSR at Star Choice and they told me that in April of next year is the schedule to increase the advance guide time. Two days with some models and 3 days with other models is just poor advance planning for a guide in my opinion...

Could someone tell me what the SC 317 advanced guide hours are at present. Thanks. :)

I'd start at elevation of 51 1/2 and azimuth of 167 and skew of 88 1/2 degrees. Should be pretty close.

Are you talking about the same person I replied to as hamrz with his first post? His post looked ok to me. :confused:

For a single satellite pickup at 82 deg. use elevation of 50 deg., azimuth of 189 deg. For a single satellite pickup at 91 deg. use elevation of 48 1/2 deg., azimuth of 204 deg. For picking up both satellites with a skewable dish and two LNBF's use an elevation of 49 1/2 deg., an azimuth...

Your post #8 and post #15 have me confused as they appear to be in opposition to one another. However, equipment can be purchased from information in post #7.

You get around that business about the social security number if you tell them from the outset that you are a Canadian wanting a satellite system for your second residence or vacation home in the town of wherever. You also give them your Canadian cell phone number as that is what you use at your...

I know of Canadians that have Dish receivers authorized for an area that they can receive the local networks from and using a real address from that town usually an apartment buiding as their service address. Their billing address can be a different area like a friends house. The phone number...

Yes having a satellite provider in either country charge a credit card in the other country is done without question every day by many people. I even give them my cell phone number which is my only phone, no land lines in the house. That way no phone line is expected to be plugged into the...

I would suggest you call your friend on Vancouver Island and ask if he is receiving any Canadian satellite tv. If so, ask him if he will purchase you a receiver of your choice along with a dish and LNBF. Have it authorized at his house and billing by automatic credit card deduction on your...

He sounds like your average everyday executive that is on the wrong side of the barbed wire. :)

BCE has their satellite and CTV stations up for sale for a while now.

I imagine *C is hoping that Bev keeps the new satellites beamed tightly to Canada. All the more business for them with their home away from home program across the border. The *C signal reaches all of North America without the problems that Bev people are getting. If you want Canadian...

Don't think so. They have to be blind not to see what *C is gaining south of the border with their great signal covering North America and home away from home program.

I wonder if there is any connection with French quarters in Louisiana and French Canada? Beams are adjustable as you know. :)

CTV made an offer of over a billion to buy the CHUM stations and was accepted but the regulator CRTC said only if CTV does not own 2 stations in the same city. CTV is considering. CTV also said to the CRTC that programming would be 100% different. To me that means if CTV shows NFL, Chum...

Good news. This time more is better. Lets hope they don't charge too much for CI.
