N3 switch in Dik has begun

[Svpr]

11-20-08 DISH is converting HD channels to N3 right now (more channels to follow suit.)

Let the black days begins.....

We all have to go to FTA SAT like 123W-G18. True free to air (FTA) channels that never go down by providers at 123W KU.
This bird requires minimum of a 30" dish. (depending on your location,it may be larger).

I received the new cards for my SD receivers a few days ago. The new cards work now and old the cards are valid for 2 weeks, so they must be broadcasting in N2 and 3 simultaneously.

These FTA channels remain up at all times and are not attacked by ECM's as these channels are not encrypted.

Yes they have been broadcasting both, for some time now. HD receivers came n3 ready from DN, so it is no surprise HD goes down first, while they finish their card distribution.

Here on the Pacific coast 123W is very slightly higher than 119W. The sat is weak and difficult to find, so bigger the dish the better. You may also enjoy Galaxy25 97W which has many English language channels among the 200 or so of mostly International origin. KuwaitTV 2 and 3 show popular US movies in English subtitled in Arabic. This sat is stronger than 123W but a 36" or larger dish is still better, depending on location. Use dishpointer.com for dish size and aiming.

For those of you on the extreme east coast of Can, this sat is on the horizon.
