D*'s two leased satellites to Bell ExpressVu has a condition, that D* can take them back if needed at any time.
A very similiar problem has been discussed here in the fta sections.
There is a channel called The Tube/Retro Jams on Galaxy 10R 123W,
that is very weak. It has been determined the Dish new E9 at 121W,
is powerful enough to mess up just 1 channel.
A broadband sharing deal between D & E, could have made them cordial.
Now these 3 tp's just ruined that permanment. E should have bent over backwards to get the broadband sharing, finalized then asked for a favor.
Your seeing them beginning of one off the biggest mistakes & hatred to
ever hit this industry. Its in the peacefull stage now. Both sides have screwed
each other, both want control.
Maybe D* will publicly announce the name of the person with bad math skills.
Blame a 2nd person & a 3rd person for letting it slip E.
I know who's been signing off for Echostar to the FCC. He's just to blame also,
if not the culprit. His name is attatched. We have some brillant people here
that are very good reading FCC material & others understanding the technical
aspects.
The 30% will just have to go so where else.
E7's soon to be empty spots, could hit all spotarea's except questions
to Ohio/Penn while missing Kent/Tenn, Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico & Montana.
Effected future planned HD will just change E's plans for 148 & 121.
This is a sorry situation, that never should have happnened.
The responsible people are well compinsated.
Finding the right people will always be hard, the right talent doesn't have to relocate to Colorado.
