Uplink Activity for WED Mar 22nd 2006

Yes that is Sportstime Ohio!!!

Adelphia, Comcast, Cox, and Time Warner are now all signed up to carry STO, so both Dish and DirecTV might have incentive to carry it or risk losing subs.

 

[DishBacker]

Bob, thank you for your posts and a big thank you for your service to our country. I know it's been said before, but I have to say it too. People like you who signed up for duty deserve our special gratitude and respect! Here is to your safe return.

Tony

Big Ole Fat Ditto!!!

No internet access in IRAQ ?

 

[jcrandall]

No internet access in IRAQ ?

Tough locking Dish Network signal over there. With the tech the military has, they probally have wifi over the whole country by now.

Hmmm, that would be a big dish...Maybe the signal could bounce off the moon.

 

[goaliebob99]

No internet access in IRAQ ?

there is, but bouncing though 4 sats to get back to the us would be hell to gotomypc... the lag would be horrible

 

[kenny911]

I feel like an idiot for not even acknowledging that goaliebob was leaving. I just skipped the paragraph and went straight to the data lol. Stay safe my friend.

 

[jcrandall]

Man, I just got word that one of my employees is being recalled to active duty again. He did almost two years when the war started in Iraq, now they are telling him to plan for another 1-2 years starting next month.

He had a very tough time adjusting back to regular life, and over the past year or so has started getting back to normal, and now he is going back.

I can only imagine how tough it is for our men/women who serve.

[kenny911]

I handle the technical stuff Phone, Internet, data, vtc

 

[Arthope]

LT. Goaliebob99:

Am adding my thoughts and prayers for you, Goliebob. Your technical knowhow will certainly be a great asset to the effort over there, I'm sure. We're all proud of you. Be careful, buddy, and get your ass back here to solve this HD Lite thing at home.

I've got those two showing on mine...they are Charlotte ABC and FOX. They both show in the guide as "Temp Home of ABC (or FOX) from Charlotte" and both have a description stating "If WSOC (or WCCB) is no longer available at channel 8650 (or 8653) in your guide, please contact DISH for a critical equipment upgrade."

I assume thats for older subs that don't have a DISH 500?

 

[TNGTony]

Correct. This is happening in quite a few markets right now.

See ya
Tony
