[Other Topic] How is a station suppose to ID?
This is one of them that Radio, Brian1430 or Trip probably know.
When you have a AM station and a FM translator of said AM station....how are you suppose to ID?
AM 1st?
FM 1st?
Depends on the station in particular?
Doesnt matter?
Only reason I ask is I was listening to "Sasquatch 106.5" out of Duluth via 560AM. They have a FM translator on 106.5 W293CT which is how they brand (Sasquatch 106.5). When I heard the ID they said
"Sasquatch 106.5 is W293CT Duluth/Superior. Also heard on WEBC 560 AM Duluth" (then did some local towns nearby and then said "The Squatch Rocks")
I was under the assumption that the "actual" station (WEBC 560AM) is suppose to be mentioned 1st?
I know the local AM/FM combo KCHK when its same programming ID as
"You're listening to KCHK 1350AM and 95.5 FM New Prague"

I honestly don't know Jim
I just know in January the ID was different than what I heard over the weekend
Back in January it was
"Sasquatch 106.5 is W293CT Duluth/Superior. Also heard on WEBC 560 AM Duluth"
But now its
Sasquatch 106.5 is WEBC 560 Duluth superior cloquet hermantown
The rest of the ID was the same as before "Bob and Tom in the morning and great classic rock for the Northland all day long. Check us out online at squatch rocks dot com"
so they dropped the translator and added a few nearby towns to the ID in its place. I'm sure they have the FM ID buried so that the human ear cant hear it

on a sidenote this is one of my favorite ID's
Its for "KFGI 101.5 JACK FM" in Crosby (about 15 miles from Brainerd)
Or as their ID at the top of the hour says
Broadcasting from the middle of nowhere in a building that looks like a barn........(cow moos)....... Uh yep it's a barn.
KFGI Crosby Brainerd.... this is the new 101.5 Jack FM'
Their building does look like an old farm barn (drove by it many times)

It's dead, they just don't know it yet. They killed it by forcing DRM on it, and that TOTALLY botched implementing it.
There is absolutely NO compelling reason for anybody to switch to ATSC3.0. They only want it as a total and complete money grab.

WHAT ABOUT THE INTERNET PART OF IT. NO ONE WANTS A BOX CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET EITHER.

That would be handy. Download the latest RNA snippets that can be updated over 5G and no more shots! You're a Genius!Cough, cough. COVID vaccine implants.
Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. 
Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.

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....

Lately my eight year old Dell laptop has been shutting off even when I have a full battery. I have had to keep it plugged up all the time to keep this from happening. Any idea what is causing this? I replaced the battery about three years ago.
