An Update

Looks like that language is more work than if you just wrote the Query.

Not if you're using Hibernate from JBoss as your persistence layer - along with Spring to manage connections and transaction control. It saves me so much time since I don't have to spend time coding Connection objects, PreparedStatement objects, ResultsSet objects and parsing through ResultSets to create my Java objects, and then cleaning it all up when I'm done.

Well I can say for sure that I was told the 19th by a retention specialist, but no big deal. My install date is not until mid-October so I can only hope that some will be on by then. If not, then "Houston we have a problem".

I was sitting down eating breakfast at Cracker Barrel and was interrupted 3 times. It's starting to get old. I'm getting real tired of people asking me. I ask every one where they heard it from. It was from a D* csr. I'm really pi#$ed because some people in here get tired of angry threads. @#@ deal with angry people in your face over something you don't have anything to do with.

I don't know what any of the numbers at the top mean, are they good??

The legend appears at the top of the table.

RHCP = Right Hand Circular Polarity
LHCP = Left Hand Circular Polarity
Broadcast Freq. = RF frequency of the satellite transmission
L-Band Freq. = RF frequency from the LNB

The L-Band frequencies range from just above channel 13 through most of the UHF band.

I noticed D10 is finally in place at 102.8. First time I've seen it there if that means anything. It's been at 102.57 the last few weeks so maybe we will see some new HD by this weekend.

M$ SQL Server and Oracle 11g are two types of database software suites..

The fact that both companies (M$ and Oracle) have put their hamfisted fingerprints on their implementation of SQL is what makes this whole process difficult.

The n2yo.com tracking has been essentially offline with respect to DIRECTV 10 for the last ten days or so. It moved to where it is today sometime over the last weekend.

IIRC, it is actually supposed to be located at 102.775 according to their Special Temporary Authority. What's .025 degrees between friends?

 

[skyviewmark]

Ok. No new rumors or D10 sightings for awhile. So I guess nothing is going to be happening in the near future.. Time to forge for food.

I can certainly tell that nobody at D* is from the South because they certainly don’t know beans about symantics.

For example, in the South, to say that something is going to be turned on in September actually means that it will be on by September 1st so that anyone wanting to watch could do so during the entire month of September.

If, on the other hand, the start date was to be on 9/7, then the term “the beginning of September” would be acceptable but anything after this date would have to carry a “mid-September” or end-of-September” designation.

….And if the plan was to turn it on any later than tomorrow. the correct phraseology would most definitely have to read “the very end of September” and not just “in September” as they have so advertised.

If you’re looking for the reason people are so upset about this issue, herein lies the explanation. Only a bunch of left wing liberals such as those currently residing in CA, along with DirecTV, could get away with saying something is coming in September and turn it on the last week or day of the month.

And no, I’m not really serious about all of this but I do, at the very least, hope that this post made you smile.

twice yesterday I had to call DTV for various reasons, just conversationally I asked about the HD channels, both csr's told me "next week." and both times they said "hold on let me check the internal memos real quickly."

I have heard tomorrow morning might have a few nice suprises in store.

You really really really need to stop posting stuff like this. You have been completly wrong the last 2 weeks. Your credibility is shot. Perhaps you need to lose your current "sources" and find repudible ones!!

According to my Clock there is still 17 hours and 52 minutes left until Sept 20th is Over.

They can flip the switch any time today and Scobuck is still on the money. I imagine they "might" wait until 9:00 am PT when everone is in at HQ. Maybe...hopefully

Ch. 498 is up and operational. Not sure if that means anything, but it says it is being broadcast from the new satellite.

Maybe you should use spell check more often.

MANY times people know/have a plan that does not unfold the way they intended. He's just reporting what he hears, Id rather have info that was correct 60% of the time than NONE at all.

I think the other site would be great for you, they don't report anything thats not true rolleyes and also don't post those pesky internal memo's.

Why no D* folks on chnl 570?
