    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    Yes, I have an Edision OS Mio+ 4K box.My blind scans of SES-15 were the opposite of yours — it found the data transponders, but not Reuters. Weird stuff!

    OTHER Configure a location in plugin settings

    Thanks for the pointers — never would have found this. MSN Weather was disabled, but “InfoBarWeather” was on. Entered my location and that did the trick (Dutch spelling and all).

    OTHER Configure a location in plugin settings

    Here's another one I haven't been able to figure out. I think this may have started after loading TNAP 5.1 -- when I press "OK" on the Edision OS Mio+ 4K remote, I now see a message that says I need to "configure a location in plugin settings." I don't recall ever loading plugins, but in the...

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    Just to wrap this up, was finally able to get a bead on the Reuters feed. I had been on the correct satellite for some time, but it was coming up with nothing during blind scans. Tonight I went into the Signal Finder and manually entered the transponder info -- it locked. Did a scan from there...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Interesting. This doesn’t seem to be the same as the only reason I noticed the LNB being powered-down was because I had the analyzer connected. Once I select a satellite or favorite, it power right back up. Thought it might be desired behavior, but couldn’t think if what that might accomplish.

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    I’m still kicking myself for, sometime after most analog feeds vanished, taking down both my 10.5-foot and 7.5-foot C-Band dishes.At the time I figured, “well, these will never be of use again.” What a boneheaded move!

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    That’s good to know, thanks. I normally keep the dish parked on the Newsource transponder for quick access. I’d never heard of the Reuters feed so I was attempting to see what might be there. Sounds like I’m not missing much.

    Thanks for confirming! I'll keep working on it ...

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    I've been playing around with the Ku dish recently (after a long absence) and have been looking for some feeds based on what I see at Lyngsat. According to their chart, there should be a feed for Reuters Live on SES-15, 12122H -- can anyone confirm that this exists? I see a pedestal there on the...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Are you speaking about a relay that’s inside the motor? If so, that might be difficult to replace. All-in-all it’s no big deal as I’m just futzing around with the whole thing. One other annoyance I’ve come across is that after doing a blind scan and exiting the menu, the Edision shuts off the...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I'll check that out — appreciate your input!

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I can’t be certain of that as I’m a bit of a rube when it comes to keeping up with the latest updates. However, I did just install 5.1 a few days ago (20240729) and assumed it was the newest build. This behavior has been going on since the day I installed the dish, maybe 3 years ago.

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Yes, that's my assumption on how it should work. I should have clarified that I have "fine movement" selected when attempting to nudge it east or west. I wasn't sure what was happening in the beginning, but after connecting a spectrum analyzer it became obvious that it was sweeping the arc...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I've been ignoring my FTA system for a while and just started to tinker with it again -- I'm amazed at how much I FORGOT -- it was like starting from scratch. My equipment: Edision OS Mio+ 4K (running TNAP 5.1) GEOSATpro 36" Stab Rotor Sat HH90 I was able to figure most functions out once...

    DirecTV allows subs to drop locals

    Thanks for the info. A 24-month discount is a pretty good deal.

    DirecTV allows subs to drop locals

    Based on my experience, definitely better to call. Do you mind disclosing the amount of the discount you're receiving? I just realized I misstated mine -- it's $55, not $50.

    DirecTV allows subs to drop locals

    A good resolution to this: Received a call from a very nice person at the "Office of the President" in response to my BBB complaint. She was able to restore my account back to the way it was before I attempted to remove the locals.

    DirecTV allows subs to drop locals

    This went downhill fast. Because my programming package changed from "Choice" to "Choice - no locals," the $50/mo credit I had until Feb 2025 was removed. The rep and supervisor in the loyalty department worked on it for a while and determined there was no way to re-apply it. As a result, I...

    DirecTV allows subs to drop locals

    Well this is a bit concerning: Three hours later the locals are still available. Checking my account, it still says that locals are in my package — but the concern comes when looking at the price — the $50/mo. promo discount I’ve been enjoying has disappeared. Perhaps it will reappear after the...

    I dropped locals this afternoon. Very easy process. Here's the final "warning" you receive before committing:

    Lifetime Movie Network no longer in Choice package?

    Thanks for confirming -- that's a big help. I have no idea when/if I ever had this channel -- my wife likes it though and only reported it "missing" a couple of days ago. But, I guess it's possible she thought she was watching it, but was actually something else ...

    Lifetime Movie Network no longer in Choice package?

    Thanks for the info. Hopefully someone with Choice can confirm whether or not they’re still receiving LMN via satellite — just curious if this problem is unique to my account.

    Lifetime Movie Network no longer in Choice package?

    721 error when turning to 253. If I'm looking at the same channel lineup that you are, I did notice that for Choice, it says that LMN is "satellite only." I'm actually have the opposite experience, where I'm only getting it on the internet.

    Lifetime Movie Network no longer in Choice package?

    Wondering if someone else with the Choice package can check to see if you are still receiving Lifetime Movie Network on Channel 253? For some reason it is now "grayed out" on all four of my DVRs -- tried refreshing and restarting them, but no dice. I ran through all of the channels that I...

    Special Hurricane Idalia Coverage on DIRECTV Satellite

    Thanks for the info -- much appreciated. In thinking about this particular situation though, the uplink and/or spot beams are part of the DirecTVs final distribution to customers -- the issue here appears to be with the path the local stations use to get their signal TO DirecTV. Example, when I...
