Need someone in Minneapolis to verify something for me

[Mr Tony]

Can someone in Minneapolis check what the signal on 129 TP2 shows?
I look at the spotbeam map on thelist and we might be in the coverage area but wanted to make sure

Thanks!

TP2 on 129 in Lakeville, mn says 35 then 36, and stable.

 

[Mr Tony]

cool. I'm west of you a smidge
I wonder if those are good enough numbers to stay stable?
(I know what the numbers should be on CONUS with the "new" meter but didnt know with spotbeams)

Hey Ice, can you check 129 transponder 10?.

Thanks
Scott

 

[Mr Tony]

I dont have Dish so I can't check

 

[Styler1]

Oops. I thought you had it. Sorry. I asked the person who responded to your question..

 

[Mr Tony]

The reason I asked is Dish has Duluth locals in HD (Directv does not) and it would be nice to see Duluth news again (lived there for a few years)

OMG!!! Are you thinking about doing what I think your thinking about doing? Sure it won't give you a stroke or something worse??

thought about getting Dish. Buy a 211 and get the Welcome Pack + locals
and before you ask why dont I just "move with D*"....well I'm already a "mover"

Sure it won't give you a stroke or something worse??

nah. Had Dish before (had a couple old 301's and the Family Pack at the end).
But I think it would give some folks in the E* area a stroke if I did.

Would you just keep both direct and dish

would have to...contract with D* still runs for a little while

Since E* doesnt allow locals only (I had that years ago) the WP+locals would do what I need it to do
Still mulling it over though....

I know I'd have to go through the DIRT folks to get set up like that.

They should have been changed over to the Welcome Pack

You might as well, you're here all the time, anyway. Time to put your money where your mouth is.

Ya know, Iceberg was with Dish in the past, and it sounds like he may return. He has been a real help to many, many people on this website. You really oughta cool it or you will lose any credence that you have

Loosen up Bobby. Ice and I have been sparring a long time. He knows where I'm coming from. It's all in fun.

I've been watching posts on this website from day one. I'll loosen up when I need a laxative...
