Equator HD, a channel dedicated toexploring the world's most intriguing people and places with intelligent travel, nature, and cultural programs, premieres "The Mysteries of Clipperton," a 90-minute special and the last in a series, hosted by Dr. Jean-Louis Etienne, a world renowned explorer and adventurer. Located in the heart of the Pacific, Clipperton is the most isolated coral atoll on earth and remains a scientific enigma. Cut off from the ocean by a violent storm over 150 years ago, it has become a unique ecological wonderland that has captured the curiosity of scientists. The greatest mystery lies in its Bottomless Pit, a strange needle-like hole that plunges far into the depths of the atoll. Captain Cousteau unsuccessfully attempted to explore this well which is filled with sulfuric acid. A deep-sea exploration device is sent down to try and discover unknown bacteria. The show focuses on forty scientists who embark over four months on an expansive exploration of the island in the fields of oceanography, biology, chemistry, biochemistry and ecology. The expedition aims to take a living inventory of the island, an absolute necessity in order to understand the unique ecosystem and to set up measures to protect biodiversity on a global scale.<O</O

The Rainforest challenge is quite simply the toughest 4x4 competition on the planet: 10 grueling days and 400 sweat-soaked miles of mud, blood and guts. Held deep in the rainforest national park of Malaysia, it's full of drenching rain, slippery slopes, deep ruts, gullies, swollen rivers and landslides so demanding and unforgiving that it takes hours to travel a single kilometer and weeks to retrieve stranded trucks. Then, add in intense humidity, sand flies, leeches and sleepless nights all of which will drain bodies, destroy axles and bury the trickiest 4x4. Despite these hardships, 30 teams from around the world gather for the ultimate off-road experience. Only 21 will make it to the end.

A visiting filmmaker offered him his first role as a stunt player; he took the part, and soon left the Opera to pursue the world of film. Chan's talent and enthusiasm led to larger and more important roles. Simultaneously, he began to work behind the camera, first as stunt coordinator and then director. His directorial debutShi di chu ma (1980) was a milestone in martial arts film-making, being one of the first to effectively combine comedy with action. This set the tone for many of his future films, combining slapstick humor with high-energy martial arts action and making both Chan and the martial arts film genre into international phenomena. Tune in to see why Jackie Chan is a universal favorite with: Dragon Lord; Twin Dragons; Jackie Chan's Project A; Jackie Chan's Project A2; Wheels on Meals; Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars; Accidental Spy; Dragons Forever; Supercop 2; Operation Condor 2.<O</O

From 1923 to1941, Universal Pictures released a long list of horror movies that would go down in history as some of the most astonishing, critiqued and remade films ever put on celluloid. Among them are classics like: Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), The Mummy (1932), and The Wolf Man (1941), which made time-tested horror stars out of Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney and Lon Chaney, Jr. In the '70s and '80s, the Jaws films once again took Universal Pictures to a new height with the return of the genre film. Now these films are presented, re-mastered, in the startling clarity of high definition where, as critic Tim Lucas puts it, "they achieve a heightened sense of detail…depth, emotion and temperature." Tune in to Monsters HD for the marathon and relive the 'horror' all over again with: Frankenstein; Bride of Frankenstein; Son of Frankenstein; Dracula '31; Mummy '32; Mummy's Hand; Mummy's Curse; Mummy's Ghost; Mummy's Tomb; Wolfman; Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman; House of Dracula; House of Frankenstein; Creature From The Black Lagoon; Revenge of the Creature: Creature Walks Among Us; Jaws; Jaws 2, Jaws 3 and Jaws 4.<O</O

Two dedicated collectors compete for the ultimate prize: a dream addition to their treasured collection be it sports memorabilia, Marvel comic books, Barbie dolls, bobble heads, or a chance to meet the appointed figurehead of their obsession. But this prize is no gift. It has to be earned. Our collector's area of expertise is tested in a competition of wits, trivia and skill. Who is the true know-it-all of the two? Who is truly worthy of winning the coveted prize? The stakes are high because the prize will fulfill a wish they only dared to dream about... and they don't know what that prize is until they win...or lose. Premieres August 27th at 9AM ET

HERE TO HELP YOU!
Cutting Edge
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....

My OTA is not working anymore. This started after the latest update. I have the OTA dongle with a OTA antenna that I've been using for years. My hopper does not recognize the dongle anymore and when I go to the OTA setting, it has a screen that says to plug a dongle into the USB. I tried unplugging and plugging back, in the same usb port and other ports. The Hopper does not recognize it. Anyone have same issue?

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.

I know HipKat said that they were working on conversions but we got the official news yesterday right from Dish that starting next month all DMA's will be on the western arc, and all customers will be assigned to that. That's gonna mean a lot of customers around here aren't gonna get Dish unless there are exceptions. Too many mountains and trees.
