About a month ago, we moved from Vonage to Comcast Digital Voice. The voice quality is very good. Unlike Vonage, I have not experienced any problems dialing to or from my own line. And e911 works. So far so good.

Hello, I got a new DPP LNB off eBay. I just noticed that the white cover on the LNB is cracked. Does this make the LNB unusable?

Hello, I moved and I am getting used DishPro gear for the new place. I got my first of two dishes today. For fun, I put on the new I-adaptor I got from dishstore.net and I started to adjust the skew for 61.5 to set it at 90. But I noticed that a setting of 92 would seem to make the setup...

That's unfortunate. I was on the phone for halftime and for the Eto'o matter; so, I missed the commentary.

I remember Schalke 04 being featured a lot on a program called, "Soccer Made in Germany" which was carried on my PBS station where I used to live over 20 years ago. Wow, memories!

Here's hoping there are no fires in the van this game and no one got hurt putting out the fire last week.

Barca gets one, finally.

anyone else see choppy video in the last few minutes?

Rush here. So close to a Barca goal.

Yes, I have seen swift banning for people who ostensibly want to get programming for free. The R-5000 sounds like a legal modification. I have tried joining FTA/MPEG2 What's Up There Forum to find FTA HD without success twice without any explanation of action taken. Tough crowd that FTA...

I am wondering what happened to Mistin and the Columbia classic cartoons like Archie and Fat Albert, etc.

My HDTV regurgitates SD; so, I structure my various subscriptions from Comcast and Dish to maximize HD and minimize SD. That said, Dish wants about $37 per month just for the new HD package without locals plus fees. Dish has not offered an "ownership" deal for people like me who own an 811...
