Here is what I'm trying to do. Have an old H10 receiver that I really want to use just for the OTA tuner. Now I need a connection from the satellite for it to work. It wont be activated so I'll just have the locals and 200 & 201 in there (they are free)
Will it work and read just 101? Or does the SWM setup do something weird with 101 so it wont work?

I know webby.
I had everything all ready and the tech was very grateful for that. All he had to do was take down the 18" dish I had, mount the new dish right by the existing one, aim the dish and get in the house (it was like -4 that morning). He already had assembled the dish and roughed it before he arrived so it took him like 3 minutes to aim and peak the dish. Already ran the new cable for the new receiver so it didnt take him like 4 hours to clean off the roof (only spot to put it), install the dish, then run a new cable through my house (which is a pain to do since it has to go through the garage to get to the bedrooms). Hooked up the SWM, reran sat setup on R22's, installed new H23 and activated.
total time was an hour

With all the SNOW you guys get, your putting dishes on the ROOF ?
M
no choice. Live in a townhouse so I cant put a pole in the yard. Deck is on the North side of the house (and the deck isnt the most stable for a dish) so they go on the edge of the roof on the North side. Easy to get to from the deck. Climb up the stepladder and right there they are. The South side of the house is up 2 stories so that wont work

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....

Season 2 order already in hand:
'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1
I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
Stay out of my office. I rarely have shoes or socks on in the office. My office and business is at home thoughI don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.

Simple, charming. Entire premise is quite silly but Cary Grant carries it across the line in good fashion.
