SKY ANGEL LAUNCHES GOSPEL MUSIC CHANNEL
NAPLES, FL & ATLANTA, GA – July 24, 2007 – Dominion Video Satellite
Inc., owner and operator of Sky Angel, a nationwide Christian and
family-oriented television service, and Gospel Music Channel, the
nation's first and only 24-hour music television channel devoted to
all styles of gospel music, today announced the launch of Gospel
Music Channel (GMC) on Sky Angel beginning August 1.
Gospel Music Channel will be available through Sky Angel's existing
satellite service and will ultimately become part of the improved
programming capabilities offered through IPTV – Internet Protocol
Television. The company recently announced plans for major
improvements to the way it delivers its Sky Angel multi-channel
programming service. IPTV combines traditional television with
broadband Internet services and allows programs and channels, such as
Gospel Music Channel, to be viewed on conventional TVs, personal
computers and handheld instruments. Viewer benefits include enhanced
programming, additional channels, Video on Demand and more
programming package choices for individual subscribers.
"Gospel Music Channel introduces an exciting new element to our
programming line-up," said Rob Johnson, chief executive officer of
Sky Angel. "We share the same passion for delivering family-friendly
programming and we're glad to have them on board."
Prominent cable industry executives Charles Humbard and Brad Siegel
launched the Atlanta-based Gospel Music Channel in 2004. With a
mission to entertain, uplift and inspire, its world-premiere
programming includes artist biographies, music specials, concerts and
hosted music video blocks dedicated to all styles of gospel music.
"Our values in faith and family are a perfect fit with the Sky Angel
programming," said Gospel Music Channel Founder and President Charles
Humbard. "We're looking forward to our partnership and the ability to
bring inspirational Christian/Gospel music of all styles to new and
existing viewers throughout the country."
Sky Angel currently delivers over 30 television and radio channels to
customers across the United States using direct broadcast satellite
and reaches consumers in homes, churches, prisons, shelters,
hospitals and nursing homes. Programming includes family movies;
classic sitcoms; Christian shows for kids and teens; biblical
teaching and inspirational programs; home life, health and talk
shows; documentaries and educational programs; special events,
conferences and concerts; Christian music videos; and more.
About Gospel Music Channel
Gospel Music Channel embraces an audience that crosses cultures and
captures generations delivering a fan base so large and passionate it
deserves its own network. The Sky Angel launch closely follows a
series of other major distribution announcements made by the network
over the past several months. Gospel Music Channel has become one of
the fastest growing networks in television. GMC also recently ranked
as the #1 emerging or mid-size network in the new annual survey of
cable operators. The channel also ranked #1 in "audience
attentiveness to advertising," #1 in "feeling comfortable viewing
with family" and #1 in "emotional connection with their audience" in
a recent major advertising industry research report. Another new
research study found that GMC viewers are among the most influential
in all of television. More information is available at
Gospel Music Channel™ - Rock, Pop, Country, Soul.

Did anyone read the new enewsletter? If you click the link for spirit it brings you to the website where it says:
Spirit moves temporarily to KTV
Spirit is excited about being one of the first 24-hour channels to be added to Sky Angel's new IPTV service when it becomes available over the next year. Prior to its launch full time on Sky Angel's IPTV service, Spirit programming is available on KTV/Channel 9703 nightly from 11pm ET/8pm PT to 6am ET/3am PT while the newly added Gospel Music Channel is showcased to Sky Angel viewers on Channel 9717 prior to it being added to Sky Angel's new IPTV service as well.
"We're excited about this opportunity to be among the first channels to be available on Sky Angel's new IPTV service," said Spirit co-founder Kathy Shumate. "We anticipate that the special features and conveniences that IPTV affords will make watching Spirit an even better experience for our viewers and will open the door for us to expand our programming as we are able.
there is also a link for IPTV. Problem I am having is that no where do I clearly see where they explain that they are CANCELLING DBS service and what the switch to IPTV entails. hey before joining this forum I didn't even know what "DBS" was, I had "satellite"
There is also the link about subscribing to IPTV , but again it doesn't say your satellite service is being discontinued, explain what broadband is (there are people who don't know). it says "coming soon" so if you aren't interested you wouldn't even click the link! why can't they just be upfront and honest with people? It seems people are supposed to know the hidden meaning of all of this "stuff".

I always wonder about such "press releases". Wouldn't it be funny to see something like:
Spirit executives are really annoyed about the changes, but they figure they don't have any choice but to go along with a smile. "We figured we didn't have many other choices so we are living with the best option of a lousy set of choices said Spirit co-founder Kathy Shumate."
I doubt we will ever see something like that, but it seems more realistic.
(BTW, I knew Kathy years ago, and she is a very sweet person so I suspect that the SkyAngel quote is accurate, though I am sure she would prefer to have a 24 hour channel.)

I think Glorystar appears to be a great deal.
:
I am definitely interested.
:
I agree, I just purchased a system myself. I am a lifetime subscriber to Sky Angel. One reason that I purchased Glorystar is that it has coverage in Mexico where I am currently located. I have not been able to take advantage of my Sky Angel subscription for the last two years. But even if I, were in the States, I think I would still be interested in Glorystar.
I have already told friends and family about Glorystar, several who are or have been Sky Angel subscribers and now they are expressing interest as well.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Not for me, mines has no mention of how long aka the offer period and the Terms and conditions the $0.00 is good for. All I see is one can lose $5.00 if you decide to remove it before day 31 after you add it to the account.

To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.
As I said above, and, FWIW, I run Win11 Pro and Arch on separate 250 GB NVME drives, using F8 to select which I boot to, with a 1TB SSD for storage, accessible to both OSs and a third formatted Nvme I want to use to learn Kali. It was much faster to setup Arch than it was to strip down Windows. Windows still takes much longer to boot.
For some reason, the satelliteguys.us site is loading a lot slower than usual on both Chrome on my Asus laptop and Safari on my iPhone.
I'm also seeing longer appearances of the blue bar at the top and the "3 blue bars" loading symbol.
Is anyone else also having the same problem? Thanks in advance.

Help, I'm a little confjused on the activation process.
I purchased the Joey 4 from Solid Signal and shipping box has Call 866 726-4282 to Avtivate new Receiver. That number is Solid Signals number.
I googled and that search said call Dish to activate. I assume that is correct unless this requires a 2 step process.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Apple has finally released their Apple TV 4K with built-in Siri and a microphone so it can respond to your queries even if you don't have the remote. It also increases in price, to $299. I had been planning on updating my current Apple TV 4K streamers, but that's $600 for the two of them, and that's a pass at this point.
At $299, it had better come with 256 GB of Storage, Gigabit (or better) Ethernet, the latest HDMI tech and standards, and one year of free Apple One. But it probably won't…

The new curated multiview is now live.
While on many of the sports channels and non sports channels there is a multi view option button. It will pull up a side bar with many different multi view options.
