Hi Guys....
As I understand your problem it appears that you now get the oddball
collection of sat stations but NOT the major networks, CBS, ABC, NBC, and
FOX...and
Direct Tv won't set that up for you...at least now w/o making you jump thu a
whole bunch of stupid hoops.
Here is how you solve this issue... but be advised it costs a lil money...
namely about $12 pr/mth... for all 4 networks... and what you will get is the
west coast and east coast feeds from all 4 networks but this comes from a
secondary provider.
There is a lil form work to fill out.. which can be downloaded and faxed
back to them.. but do what I did and impose on the nice folks as the local
yacht
club office to use their fax machine.
Who you call is ALL AMERICAN DIRECT at 800-650-5396. They can also be seen
on the web at _www.AllAmericanDirect.com_ (http://www.allamericandirect.com/)
.
We have Dish Network.. and use a Track It system ( _Marine Satellite TV
Tracking_ (http://www.track-it-tv.com/?se=Google&adGroup=FollowMeTV) ) on
our
trawler.. and it worked just fine.. so we can have our morning dose of GMA
with our coffee and doughnuts in the morning.
When you call em, you will have to give them a CC number for direct monthly
billing, and be prepared to give em some numbers off of the back of your sat
receiver, but they will explain all that to you on the phone.
Note that we have zero affiliation with any of the above companies, other
than we do use them as customers.
Good Luck... hope to see ya on the water.. we go back to our boat in
January, in Marathon...
