Ordered them today.I need a second dish.The second dish will be installed this friday.If you read the whole column you'll see that they had to put something in there from time warner.It so happens that the local paper and time warner are owned by the same company.Go figure.The only thing that bugs me is no upn channel.

I am in the syracuse market. Right now syracuse stations are showing up in the guide. You can tune to the channels 3,5,9,43 and 68. There is programing on there now, but it is not the syracuse stations. I do not have the 72.5 dish installed.

Thanks

I just went to guide and keyed in channel 3 and up key from there. It shows me 3,5,9,43, and 68 with all the info. I get programing on those channels but it is not right, ie cspan and starz.
