Adelphia Cable Is Great

:D
I've been reading a lot of negative things about Adelphia, but I for one am a very satisfied customer. I had DirecTV for 7 years, but switched to cable when I was unable to get high speed internet and DirecTV together.
I loved DirecTV but really wasn't happy with the HDTV offerings or the quality of HDTV. I considered VOOM, but decided not to change.
Anyway......my point is that Adelphia provides the best HDTV offerings currently available, an HDTV receiver with a hard drive that records in HDTV, and I have been extremely pleased with the Adelphia service I have received in the Northern Virginia / D.C. Suburbs. So....whats not to like?
I just wanted to post a VERY POSITIVE review of ADELPHIA Cable and the quality of their HDTV, based on my personal experience so far.

Pleasant vibes to all!

I AGREE... I dont miss Voom as much as I thought I would. The Adelphia HD is as good as if not better than Voom ..(love INHD and INHD2).

I like the HD DVR; etc. I am a happy customer.

Adelphia HD was not available to me when I joined Voom.

Adelphia has improved their technology and services over the past 18 months, but it's like taking a rusted-out 1974 Datsun B-210 with 300,000 miles, slapping on a gallon of bondo & changing the spark plugs, and trying to pass it off as a new car; it's still broken-down, ugly, and backfires at every traffic light. Sorry! But I have been working with my local cable commission for the past five years and I could write volumes of information concerning Adelphia mismanagement...in fact, I have in complaints to the FCC and local cable commission.

I am not bashing Adelphia and, in fact, I have given them numerous opportunities to serve my family over the years...they just keep failing miserably. I wanted them to succeed and I wanted them to provide reliable and economical services to the community! I am still an Adelphia customer. I have had their broadband service for almost 5 years because they are the only broadband provider in my area - I am 1/2 mile too far from the Verizon switch. Comcast will be taking over my particular area and Verizon will be running Fiber to the Premise next year. I am glad to hear you are having a good experience with Adelphia, but they will not be missed in my neighborhood.

The Adelphia broadband at my house is awesome. I get great speeds. The DVR works great as well. My only complaint is not enough HD Channels!

No doubt their high speed internet is awesome. I cancelled directv about two years ago and signed up with adelphia when the county i live in signed a franchise agreement with them. Up till then cable stopped about a mile and a half my house because the adelphia wizards always said they couldn't bring it over a bridge going across the interstate. Then suddenly came the franchise agreement and adelphia the rest of the way down the road i live on. This was in 2003. They offered good deals,got everyone signed on and has raised the rates almost 10 bucks for basic cable since. Maybe someone else has had better luck with adelphia, but not here in east Tennessee. Switching to directv soon btw.

I really like HD. I love having the locals that Adelphia offers. Until Directv offers locals in HD, I will probably remain. It is my understanding that Time Warner will be taking over this area. Hopefully, they will be offering a greater selection of HD channels. I really do not think there is a major difference between satellite and cable. The DVR that Adelphia offers in this area works great! I miss Voom!

Song Name Game Part 3!

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....

Washington Post

SpaceX has held talks with Boost's parent company EchoStar in recent months about launching its own signature wireless service through a deal with the company, according to two people familiar with the negotiations.
Musk, the SpaceX CEO, has discussed the deal personally, meeting with EchoStar chairman Charlie Ergen last month, according to the people. The potential deal may result in SpaceX acquiring Boost Mobile or SpaceX gaining access to its network, which it leases from AT&T and T-Mobile US, the people said.
Access to those lease agreements would be a coup for SpaceX. The back door would allow Musk to make a play for a U.S. wireless market that equity research firm MoffettNathanson estimates is worth $235 billion. But the proposed service may need consent from those carriers for the service to actually launch, the people said.

Can't remember where or who I saw predict this. :D

Again, why would Musk want a TV Service, specially one that is losing over a million subscribers a year.

Phone service…maybe, but not TV.

Again, if so, why would he want Dish/Sling of all the providers?

He could deliver anything without actually owning, for example, watching the Lions game in my Tesla Y on it's screen via the YT app, while on the way to my future in-laws on Sunday.

If Musk really wants to buy Boost, he might get a great price once Dish Wireless is out of Chapter 11.

Boost just lost 182,000 subs in the 3rd quarter-

Other than the price, my experience with Boost is not that different than what I experienced with my years with Cricket. I will be curious to see what happens if SpaceX takes the reins.

Hate to say this no one is ordering Satellite TV. Both DISH and Direct no new customers.
After 25 years with centurylink DSL 80 speed i changed to Xfinity 300 speed for $50 wow lightning fast for streaming. Still have DISH 27 years with them. Americas 250 package for $103. What you think of superbox or vseebox for streaming is it legal?
Still dish is easy to operate and change channels. What will Charlie Ergen do with new super satellites with loosing customers with satellites and boost?

Rodney Dangerfield is great. One of his best one liners - "My wife likes to talk to me during sex, last night she called me from Florida!"

Jackie Gleason is another one of the greats.
