Space Ship TV Antenna

[Leroy Eckert]

Thanks Don:
I have been using Dish Sat TV except in cases where a tree or other object
prevented reception. I rarely hook up to cable. After this occurred I contacted
Dish and they informed me, after the fact of course, that I could now receive my
home local networks on Echo110. All other channels are on Echo 119. I assume
all Dish customers use the same satellites. My TracVision L3 will need to be
re-programmed by Camping World or someone else who has the software to do so.
Closest Camping World around here is about 140 miles away. Perhaps I should
stop on the road and have the antenna reprogrammed.

Leroy Mine works good if I am in flat country. Like FL & near big
city's. I use dish TV for other channels. I'm going to try to take my local
channels from home this year when we travel thru the dish satellite. I tried
it
one year & couldn't get them in AZ so I canceled them. It nice to get the home
news when away.

Does anyone use the old space ship TV antenna on a regular basis? If
so, any idea on range. I do not have any paperwork on it. I have all
the latest stuff but had to use the space ship last night(1st time)
after Dish Network shut off my remote local channel access due to a
court squabble. Remote local in my case meaning CBS< NBC< FOX and ABC
out of NY or LA my choice. Happened right in the middle of USC-UCLA
waiting for the Florida game. I was in a remote area and was able to
pick up one station clearly. Just happened to be CBS, Dothan AL.
Since I now know the antenna actually works I may consider using it for
local access instead of Dish in cases where I cannot hard wire to
cable. Any history appreciated.
