Hi,

Forgive me for asking, but..... is there ANY news about nimiq 1 at 91 W?
It's been a while and I've noticed no one is talking about it
in any of the posts.

Thank you for the feedback, I miss the HD stations. I know the are some from the USA at 1080p but I can't see them on my sv8000 for some reason. I wonder if having a sony 720p tv is the problem?

you'd need to install an A-1 8psk module to your receiver.
you didn't need the module for bird 82w.

right on dannyzzz!!! a lot of HD receivers you buy can get birds like 82w with out the 8psk but for U.S. sats you need one!! there's ALOT of people that buy them and never know this till its to late!! then when they see the cost of one is well it kind of puts a damper on there happiness with there new box.when you buy a HD stb it sounds like thats what you get ALL the HDs right out of the box and thats not so!! i remember all the people that were peed off with the 9000 @ 9200 pansats when they first came out.

Rumor has it that if you can get your hand on one of the sat providers switchs from a old account that dont use it, you can connect it up and save that money..

AGAIN that is rumor.... Need verification...
