Only time will tell.... I hope they don't move any either. Not worried about anything new, just losing what I have!

He has the 75E, I would have to ask him what channel he is using to point. I know he has uses the advanced channel lineup.

Good friend of mine just relocated to Denver and is struggling to get his Shaw dish pointed. If there are any installers, satguys members, or if you know of an installer who could help him out, please pm me. He would gladly pay a few bucks to get this done. Thanks.

Little more research, not just that bird, but certain channels, CTV-HD and TSN-HD being a couple. Maybe a link issue.

Watching Caps-Rangers game on CBC, went to catch the end of the Can-US game on TSN, no picture. I think it is a problem with the 107 bird, since none of the channels from that one are coming up. Anyone else, or just me?

Roddy, I get Shaw with no issues on a 75E dish in Cape Coral. As everyone has said, the big question will be if they move any existing HD channels to the new bird. I'm hoping they only add new HD channels to it, I'll be happy as long as CBC, TSN 1 & 2, and the Sportsnets in HD stay where...

As long as Shaw doesn't pull a Bell when their new bird goes up later this year or next. And according to this, it looks like a real possibility.

Kusat.com is great, but be prepared for shipping charges to the US that will cost more than the dish. If you are heading back up to the Great White North anytime soon, order from Kusat and have them deliver it there, then bring it back with you by plane. I'm bringing a 65 back with me in...

I think the big question before upgrading is, will Shaw pull a Bell, and will we be out of the footprint here in the Southern US when the new bird goes up?

Iceberg is correct, I'm in the Cape Coral/Fort Myers area and have no issues with my 75E. We had a heck of a rainstorm yesterday, Dish went completely out, but my Starchoice hung in there, just a minute of pixelation.

No, I guess I could. I will give that a try.

It is the grey one.

Is it just me, or is the range and response time of this reciever and remote short on distance and super slow? Or do I have a bad remote? Being used to Dish and Bell systems which have a great 30 foot range or more, and instant response, the frustration level with this Shaw system is...

Just to finish off this thread, brought the 75E home, size of the box is just as QCK described. TSA cleared it, ha ha. Just finished installing, and locking in to both sats in a matter of minutes with signals of 88 and 90. Had a lot of experience and help from everyone the first time I...

No problem. I'm going up on the 12th and coming back on the 18th.

Ordered the quad from Kusat and am having it delivered to my folks. Put it on the plane for the trip back, I have 2 free checked bags allowed, and am only bringing one. $25 shipping to my parents is a heck of a lot less than the $105 plus brokerage fees if I had it shipped to Florida!

I also didn't realize that a few HD channels were on 107. I'm going up to Canada in a couple of weeks, I think I may just pick up a 75 Quad while I'm there. That way I'll get all the channels I'm paying for. And since I was going to use this for tailgating occasionally, after seeing how...

I just realized this QCK, I thought I had locked onto 111, but I must be inbetween. That must explain my yellow signal bar for the channels on 111. It just threw me off having a signal of 80, which was higher than my initial lock on 107. I think I'll listen to Iceberg, and just fine tune...

I will have to fine tune it. I put it on CTVHD and I got a picture there, ebno is 4.8, with a 80 signal strength on a yellow bar. So I guess the yellow bar isn't an issue, but I need to get at least to 80. Does anyone know what channel is on the weakest tp that I could fine tune too?

Ok, what a day of frustration! I ended up calling to authorize. Within minutes, picture came on 299. Waited about 20 minutes, guide still showed No Data, but I decided to adjust to 111 and put it on channel 711. Have a green signal of about 65, so I think great, I'm in business. Go to...

Ok, I have a green 70 signal on what I believe is F1 since the sat led on the reciever is green, however, channel 299 still has no picture. If I switch to 559, the sat led on the reciever goes red. I guess I'll call to authorize and see what happens.

Well, rainy day in SW Florida, so no dish playing today. It is not a virgin unit, I bought it used. I thought they only had to be authorized if they have never been in the stream, but as Joshuals said, can someone confirm this? Thanks and Happy New Year everyone!

Well, had to pack it in for today. I got a signal of 75, but no picture in the tuner menu. The channel number in the tuner menu showed 000. Shouldn't it have stayed on the channel I went into the options menu with? Oh well, now it will be my New Years project. :)

My mast is plumb, and I took everyones advice and dragged a TV out. Fortunately, I found some 40 foot cable so I didn't have to completely remove my reciever. So outside I go. Hopefully, I'll get lucky soon. Once I do get a signal, I assume I should get a picture when I exit out of the...

As I mentioned in the previous reply, if I don't find it within a few minutes on channel 711, I think I'll just bite the bullet, and yank it out of my rack and take it outside.
