I'm considering installing a satellite and telling my cable server
to screw off, and rather than take my lumps (and ask lots of "stupid"
questions), I'd like to be directed to the FAQ, or sompleace where the
uninitiated can be educated.

Thanks in advance,

I don't know if anyone can help me with this, but I have an Amstrad 
receiver (SRX 200) that unfortunately does not receive all audio
subcarriers, and is only pre-programmed for Astra's.

Does anyone know how the frequency is determined and tuned within the
receiver ? There are a couple of crystals nearby the FM IC's, at frequencies
of (I think) 17.720  MHz and 18.080 MHz. Could they be used to tune
7.02 MHz and 7.38 Mhz respectively or have I got everything wrong?

The idea would be to know if I could just change one of these oscillators
to tune different frequencies. If this is utterly impossible, and if you
know how it really works, then please let me know.

thanks in advance,

   	Ben.

I'll not repeat your entire original message.  Sufficient to say that you asked where the VCII data stream comes from.  Others may be able to give this in
better detail, please do.  But a rough draft.
Most dealers etc. call into (some by direct computer hookup most voice 800
numbers) one of several major "deaer" centers--dealers in the sense that they
sell satellite programming.  These centers all call into the GI home data
center (again either by phone or computer, but most are by computer).
GI then provides a data stream for home users authorization to the various
uplink sites.  Both HBO and Showtime are on Long Island (across the street
from each other I'm told), Group W up link is in Connecticut, and of course,
Ted's antenna farm in Atlanta.  There are a few others but those are the
majors.  That data stream is combined with the "local" data stream for 
commerical users (read cable operators) and inserted into the VCII scramblers
which are located right at the uplink along with the tape machines that show
HBO etc. or the live news feeds in Atlanta.  Each programmer keeps a log
for each service of the VCII commerical unit addresses and can update them
immediately on line right at their uplink.  The cable op needs a separate
VCII for each service.  They can't (or won't) address home unit addresses
which are different from commerical addresses at the uplinks and vice versa.

	Yeah, sparklies galore (in the trees).  NHK is on F1/17, however they
appear to be sharing it with PSN ("Sunshine Network" or some such).  NHK was
just color bars during the daytime and evening, normally, so it's no big deal.
Unfortunately, they didn't match the change in the starting time for the Sumo
coverage on saturday night (sunday) - they start 1 hr early the last day -
so you missed all but the last 30 or 45 minutes.  Aikibono (sp, phonetic)
won the tournament, and then collected giant trophies for an half hour or so.

	The next Sumo tournament will start Mar 14 (well, 2:35-45am EST the
night of the 13/14th here), and runs for 15 days every night.

There is mesh and then there is mesh.  Older dishes have holes in the mesh
that are too far apart for KU and give degraded reception.  Newer dishes have
smaller holes and work just fine on KU.

Nothing beats spun aluminium on KU though.

That is "SEDATS" Scientific Atlanta's "Spectrum Efficient Digital
Audio Transmission System", a digital audio delivery method that
home dish owners cannot currently get without investing somewhere
close to 2 grand for a used SEDATS receiver.

BTW, that was such a cool bumper that Rush uses.  I like it a lot
and am trying to get it put in my Rush bumper/commercial archives.

I think you'll find it is more like 7.7 degrees above the horizon in 'greater
Boston'. Nevertheless, it is low and I have similar problems with neighbours'

As far I know, Lifestyle will be replaced by the German channel
Vox, which is to start next Monday 17.00 CET. (According to
the Sattellite News pages on Supertext, the text service of 
Superchannel.)

However, before these information were launched, there had been 
roumors about the German channel RTL2, which will probably begin 
broadcasts next Saturday (maybe they get the Screensports transponder
then). But according to Supertext, the Children's Channel didn't
want to stop transmission on the Lifestyle transponder, and
RTL2 will be a 24-hours non-stop programme.

They also said, that TCC and a shopping channel will share
the transponder with Vox, which starts with its programming
at 12.00 CET every day.

Vox claims to have a high standard, with news every hour and
many jounalistic features about politics, economy, and so on.
Well, we'll see.

Yesterday evening: Monday 25th, Lifestyle was replaced by German
programming with a VOX logo top left.  I watched on-and-off from
around 18.00 to 23.00 CET and it seemed to be a fairly piecemeal
arrangement of news, interviews, and some basketball!  Is this part
of the promised RTL-2, or is it just a filler until February, rather

NHK did in fact return to C1/17, and carried the last day of sumo.  
Although the program was announced as starting an hour early for domestic
consumption, it started at its usual time on the North American feed,
which cut off an hour of action.  
   The NHK slate has been up all day, for what its worth.

Well, as always, new programs on ASTRA are kept as a top secret by
the SES in Luxembourg. So everything can be speculation only. But
certainly in many cases you can 1 and 1 together and get certain
results which nobody can ignore.

One fact will be, that most new 1C channels will be encrypted.
Like the Disney Channel, Bravo or Thames, Children's or Games,
Discovery or Arts Channel, TV Asia, Cala Plus Espana, Canal
Sports Espana, probably 3 or 4 French TF1 channels (2 movies,
1 Sport, one Children). In the clear might be VIVA (forgot what
it is or will be) and german VOX, and most probably beginning
in 1994 the main german national channels ARD and ZDF, definately
in the clear.

The satellite will be launched in May 1993 and should be
operational in July. It will have 16 channels between 10.950 GHz
and 11.200 GHz, and two BELOW 10.950, which will not carry
regular programming. Their transponder number 63 and 64 indicate
that they are part of the future Astra 1D system, which will use
frequencies between 10.700 and 10.950 GHz, which receivers are not
capable of yet usually.

if I write it again here and now, it will be the THIRD posting of the
same or similar contents within only a few days. You don't read this
list or group regularly?

To predict, what definately will be on ASTRA 1C is pure speculation.
The SES in Luxembourg has always kept it a secret until the last
minute. We certainly have to live with a LOT of scrambled new channels,
like 3 or 4 of french TF1 produced pay-TV channels, German ARD and ZDF
will be on there (in the clear).

One thing is for sure: There are already more requests for the 16
transponders thatn are available.

Ariane 57 will launch Astra in May, but it will not be operational
beforemid June, maybe early July.

Well, I'm neither (that) Gary or Robert, but it is probably referring to Anik
D1/D2 which have been replaced by Anik E2 and E1. The 'D' each have a few years
of life left, and D2 is currently pretending to be F4R (which the guides call
F6, to avoid confusion) for a few more weeks.

It would explain why a bunch of services are vacating F4R (aka D2 dba F6 :)
