for me it's not about damaging property...we're just simply not allowed to set up a dish outside.


Says who? That's like saying you can't have a chair on your porch. Unless you don't have a porch.



and BINGO! seriously, no place to put anything like that up outside.

I'll go check out SBF1980's links and see if there is some legal reason I should be allowed.

Yankee, all those sites I listed earlier explain why you have the right to set up a satellite dish.



SBF...I appreciate you digging up those links. Unfortunately they actually prove that I can NOT get dish:

Quote:
Q: If I live in a condominium or an apartment building, does this rule apply to me?

A: The rule applies to antenna users who live in a multiple dwelling unit building, such as a condominium or apartment building, if the antenna user has an exclusive use area in which to install the antenna. "Exclusive use" means an area of the property that only you, and persons you permit, may enter and use to the exclusion of other residents. For example, your condominium or apartment may include a balcony, terrace, deck or patio that only you can use, and the rule applies to these areas. The rule does not apply to common areas, such as the roof, the hallways, the walkways or the exterior walls of a condominium or apartment building. Restrictions on antennas installed in these common areas are not covered by the Commission's rule. For example, the rule would not apply to restrictions that prevent drilling through the exterior wall of a condominium or rental unit and thus restrictions may prohibit installation that requires such drilling.



I live in a multi-story apartment building built in the early 20's. There are no porches, any outside patios are definitely shared, and very small, they're actually just the steps to enter the main building. I dont even have a big ass window-ledge where something might be installed. (wow it sounds like I live in a fucking cave)

I have comcast, and it looks like a youtube video on my 46" HDTV. It's almost too painful to watch.


the standard digital feeds are almost unwatchable for me too, there are literally lines all over the place. So disappointing. When I watch non-HD feeds on other channels it's fine, and based on the fact that we are in completely different systems, this is most likely centerices fault and not comcast specifically.

the feeds are decent for me, or is that because im not on comcast at all

Sorry Yankee. If only you had some place to actually put it you'd be in business. I really can't think of a better reason to move though. Remember to get a balcony facing south when you start looking at new apts. When you call DirecTV for the new SAT hook-up, remember to give them my account # so that we both get some cash. Let me know the day you move so I can help (for a mere six pack). I'm sure my friend in Raleigh can help too (also a Sabres fan). Sounds like we're all set. Anything I forgot about???

I can only speak for DirecTV, which now carries the HD feed that MSG is finally sending out. Not sure why other providers wouldn't also carry it.

You know...watching these guys has made me reconsider my desire for HD. Do I really need to see all these botched passes, atrocious shots, and overall lackluster performances in wonderous high definition? I'm pondering going the other direction, smearing a thin layer of vaseline on the screen, if I cant see too many details perhaps my blood pressure wont spike with disgust every 5 minutes.

yeah about that, I've noticed that they carry TWO hd channels, and yet, I have never seen more than one of them being used all season. The announcers are saying the game is brought in HD, and yet there as plan as day is a center ice HD channel not being used. At all. For any game.

So...WTF?

All of the dozen or more channels for Center Ice I have have HD alternates (I have Dish Network) and I have seen some if the games on the HD ones but nothing for Buffalo yet. We should all call and ask and see how many answers we get. :lol:

Quote:
HOW MANY GAMES WILL I SEE IN HIGH DEFINITION?
The number of HD games you will see in NHL CENTER ICE will vary across cable and satellite providers. For technical reasons such as bandwidth and channel capacity, one provider may choose to air both feeds of a game in HD, while another one may not air the same amount of feeds or games in HD. This is at the discretion of each cable/satellite provider and it can vary across NHL Center Ice distributors and even individual systems of a distributor.

At the discretion of each of my balls, the cable provider may suck upon them for a pre-disclosed length of time.

How about I only pay for one HD channel since that's all I'm getting?
