well, i've been waiting for well over two years now. i'm just off countryside blvd and south of enterprise. good luck in your area. i've given up..._____ you verizon! :mad:

I was at the State Fair last month and stopped by the FIOS exhibit. I asked the girl when FIOS would be in my area. She plugged in my address and got nothing, then called someone and got nothing again. Bottom line...same answer as the Verizon website, NOTHING! I'm thinking they went right past...

I guess I'll just use my piece of aluminum again. It's big enough to do a good job of blocking the ir and as far as I'm concerned it really doesn't look all that bad.

Thanks for the response. This problem is the primary reason I'm considering leaving DirecTV. It has been getting worse and worse...up to several times in any given program. It even shows up now and then on OTA programming. :( I can handle once in a while as long as that's all...once in a...

Thanks for the response. It wasn't what I wanted to hear, but it's pretty much what I expected. I have a piece of powder painted aluminum that I had bent up to put in front of the DVR that I'm not watching (from when I was with BHN a few years ago). I guess I'll have to dig it out and use it if...

Does BHN have the Brrrriiip problem like DirecTV? For those of you who are wondering "what in the world is this guy talking about?"YouTube - DTV1 0000 The clip was provided by Ken S from the other site...Thanks Ken.

Picture this...2 HDDVRs sitting side by side and connected to a common HDTV (for those times when there are 3 or 4 things to watch or record at the same time). Is there a way to change the address of one box and remote (like you can with satellite TV boxes)? I wouldn't want to change the...

I know I shouldn't do this...but, what does Central Illinois have to do with a Clearwater, FL thread? While I'm on the soapbox...why are you shouting?

Last year they were up near Curlew Rd. If they are now doing fiber near Nursery & Highland that means they must have skipped right over us near the Countryside Mall. Just my luck! :(

Nor does BHN have ESPNU. :( Not to hijack the thread or anything, but is the D* exclusive Extra Innings thing a done deal yet...and will it be for this year or for next year?

Thanks for the reply. I was afraid that would be the answer. :(

I'd like to add another Scientific-Atlanta 8300 DVR to my living room. Does anyone know if there is a way to change the remote address (like with Dishnet) so I could control each box with a different remote?

I'm going up there next month...I'll call and ask some questions. Hopefully, I'll get some straight answers.

Thanks garn9173. I see you're in Ankeny...so it was nice of you to research the Moline area. I notice that CBS and NBC are not included in the HDTV offerings...can you shed any light on this? From doing some quick research on the 6412, it looks like a step back from the SA-8300 that...

Has anyone had any dealings with Mediacom in the Quad City, IL, area? I am particularly interested in any information on HDTV service and equipment, but I am also interested in internet speed and any general information about them. TIA.

At least we're lucky enough to have cable competition. I'm pleased so far with BHN, but will be more pleased when they go all digital...and even more pleased when I see the Verizon trucks on Countryside Blvd. :)

you're right...they're not perfect. but when i call in with a problem (and while getting everything going with them, there have been some problems), it's really nice to have someone give an extra effort trying to solve it. not to mention that everybody i've dealt with spoke english...a definite...

I'm about 100 miles or so north of where your folks are and on the coast. Like Mobile, we can get some major rain in a hurry. With the dish correctly aimed, the rain fade isn't as bad as you would expect. I can't really remember being down over 30 minutes and usually it's only 10 minutes or so...
