Yes, this is public knowledge. I would like to know the stats on the purpose of the thread. As in how many calls they have gotten and tallies on their survey questions.
I called and took the survey, thanks for the heads up on this. I pledge money to my local PBS station every year although I do not watch the local, I watch it through satellite. If I could pledge financial support to the satellite feeds I certainly would do that as well.
Hope the survey lasts until next week, will be in the US for a few days, can make a few calls...
Why can't you call from Canada? Isn't it a toll-free number?
The subscriber of a toll-free number can designate where it is available to call from, since that toll is actually being paid for by the sub. It is not uncommon to get called from a US salesperson on a business call and given a toll-free number to call back - and it doesn't work.
No the number from here goes to "this number is not available in your calling area" recording. Makes perfect sense, why pay extra for having a number work in another country where that country is not the target audience for their broadcast. I suspect similar for Mexico and Central.South America.
Most business 1-800 numbers from the US do work in Canada though.

Made the call. I haven't had C-Band for 20 years, and I'm just getting ready to set up a FTA KU system, but if they yank the PBS feeds on KU I might add C-Band again. My roof and back yard are going to start looking like an Earth Station...
You have not seen anything yet. Wait till you see someone who is heavily into FTA and Ham Radio.
I represent that remark!You have not seen anything yet. Wait till you see someone who is heavily into FTA and Ham Radio.
Made a couple calls from remote AZ towns when away... hope it helps...
I have an FTA array and ham radio setup as well!

I used to get it with a 1.2 meter but Ke4est is right used to be a booming signal like Lesea channels, but I would say give it a shot anyway.
Just wondering... is there any benefit in getting PBS on 103 C-Band compared to 125 Ku (other than possible LOS issues)?
