SatelliteGuys.US DishNetwork Uplink Activity Discussion - Week Ending 02/16/2008

Are they putting up a couple of tests up there (77) to see what kind of power they are dealing with?

They already know what they are dealing with. There is nothing stopping them from putting up a simple digital test signal that has nothing to do with their satellite service.

I checked with my BLSA and I can only see transponders 7, 13, 15, and 22 active.

Thanks qwert1515!

More updates... looks like they put stuff back.

Damn. I was hoping to buy one of those MPEG4 sd ppv.

They still have the content mapped on the transponder 13 itself. It looks like someone made a mistake "globally mapped" the changes. I'm guessing they fixed it.

Note the EPG ...

Note the missing signal...

It looks like they are trying all sorts of experiments with the empty TPs on 61.5 until they get the spots ready to start up. I just wish they would get the spots started so we can start to see some action. I wonder if they have all the uplinks ready yet.

Digi, it's time to make the reports more friendly. I mean making them in table format; it's hard to sift thru for quick analysis by sat_position, from/to, etc.

Looks like that's the show for this week.

My DiSH Network receiver tunes channels, not Sat positions. Those other receivers are Sat position centric.

I don't have 129, I would also like to sort by SAT position. I just want to see what's happening on 61.5..

I think P. Smith was lobbying for formatting the info into an HTML table. That way, we could copy/paste it into a spreadsheet and sort it how we like.

 

[Smith P.]

That's right - and my point came from that time when I realized I missed the 77W data.
As to using Dish or FTA receivers, well - who cares ? I can format such info as I wish and when I wish, without waiting for you John or Digi.
It will help to any person who just interesting in reading those reports!
