Canucks, Flames, Oilers PPV

How come on NHL Center Ice on E* and D* the Canucks, Flames, & Oilers PPV games are not available? They're available on Express Vu in Canada on their Centre Ice package even if you live outside the market?

Some games of the Flames, Canucks & Oilers are PPV.
If you have NHL CI in Canada and are outside of the teams market, then those are included free with CI

But the US verison doesn't have them and he is wondering why

not sure what the issue is....

I have CI and just last night i watched the flames v. avalanche, and ducks v. oilers. the canucks v. bluejackets game was also on.

what do you mean they're not available? where do you live?

I have Dish Network Center Ice and get all those games as well.

True. The games were on. Last night the Oilers were the only one of the three (Canucks, Flames, Oilers) that had their game on PPV. The Canucks and Flames had their games on Rogers Sportsnet (Pacific & West). On other nights they may have their game on PPV.

So, because of what I said, the Oilers feed was not on the U.S. Center Ice package. The Ducks OTA feed was the only one that was used for the game.

So, my question is: How come the PPV feeds of the Oilers, Flames, and Canucks PPV games are not available here in the U.S. on our Center Ice package, whereas the Canadian Centre Ice package (on Expressvu and cable in Canada) has the feeds available even outside of their respective market.

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....

No problem here (in central Europe) with a 10-footer. Do note that 9.4 dB required for the lock.
The mod is DVB-S2 8PSK with FEC 5/6.

Finally! Some big movement in California diesel pricing (and no, there is no such beastie as a diesel "winter formula").

Crude (combined pricing) is around $90/barrel now, so prices should have, at least, fallen in step with the crude futures.

Just curious here.....then why is diesel so much higher out there than it is elsewhere. Bobby just posted $7.59/gal, locally it is $5.59.....that's two bucks difference. :eeek

California has a ~93¢ per gallon consumer tax rate on automotive diesel, along with significantly higher refinement standards.

The fact that consumers can only buy some new full-sized truck models and a couple of vans with diesel power makes the fuel an odd duck in refinery priorities.

4K Events Discussion Thread

This thread is a place to discuss the 4K events that appear on channel 540. We are getting, at this point, one college football game a week. Let's hope there is more coming.

Not seeing many 4k games on the 148 channels lately?

Also I do not see the 4KFox channel on 148-01; I also do not subscribed to our Local Houston channels.

Maybe I need to subscribe to locals or add the National Action Pack? Not sure the extra cost is worth it??

thx for any info or suggestions

Most of the 4K action on the 148-xx channels will be on Saturday for College Football. For whatever reason, the guide does not show the games until later in the week. The Fox Big Noon game will show up, and there will usually be a couple of other games, some on Fox, and some on ESPN.

I don't know if you need to be subscribed to locals to get them.
