This is giving me all kinds of 2015 vibes right now, even if this wasn't from 2015 I feel like searching for these videos is truly a semi-time machine that anyone can use. I will continue to watch this channel!
I have a Dish Wally receiver that is around for a spare. Same for a regular HD Dish antenna, and LNB. Great work there. Didn’t think bad caps could cause slow load times.
I just discovered you! This is an awesome channel haha. Here in Singapore we usually live in apartments where we can't usually install a satellite, but good content to watch and learn. Perhaps I may move to a country where I have more space to tinker haha.
I think there will be left a few TV satellite soon because the streaming. I don't know any people who use dish anymore. It's sad, but the progress will be still going further. But we still have time to have fun with this technology 😊.
still a lot of people in the sticks, but yeah, it's not what it once was. Can't compete in urban environments. Funnily enough, streaming already killed satellite piracy.
There are villages or places where optic cable will never be laid to. So, installing the dish is the only best option. Starlink and Netflix work too, but many people don't need that complexity
The old way of doing things may fade out but the fun of catching satellite signals isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Broadcast satellites are still largely the backbone of all the channels after all.
Way back in the day if you unplugged the receiver before they sent the deactivation signal, and left it disconnected for several months, when you plugged it in it would have all of the channels that were subbed to.
Looks that way. This is the equivalent of "Basic Cable" packages that are just the local channels and nothing else. I sure both CBC and Ici Tele R-C are available since they're publicly-funded channels.
You would get more progress out of an Internet connection and buying an android box for 10 or $20 and know that you will end up getting movies and TV shows and all the sports you want
Cool thing I noticed: Channels 1911-1913 appear to be the normally inaccessible National Public Alerting System (Alert Ready) channels that the box force-switches to in the event of an alert being issued. I'm not entirely sure why there's 3 of them aside from the fact that Bell's satellites likely play a major role in the system's functioning; being from the US I'm having to guess on some of this though since I haven't spent long enough in Canada to get too familiar with it.
If i remember correctly, we had an EchoStar receiver, but at the time, Chapparal was a more expensive option, we steered clear from. I do remember getting the Satellite tv guide, and pulling 24 potential slots per satellite. W421 aka WestStar 4 channel 21. Good times.
Wasn't transponder 24 the Playboy channel and right next to it on 23 was Jim & Tammy Baker preaching to God and their PTL club nonsense. I always found that to be really funny.
Short answer? Yes. But they're a lot riskier than the old card hacks. Most of it nowadays is IKS or bootleg IPTV services that re-stream the content from one of the two (usually Dish). Problem with that is it's traceable. The old hacked cards like this channel shows couldn't actually be tracked in most cases, but with the stuff that's out there now, it's way too easy for the companies to get your info and just like that, you're fucked and Dish is sending their attack dogs over at NagraStar after you, telling you to either pay up or they'll take you to court. Unless the cards get truly breached so you can run it more like the old fashioned way I'd stay clear, more trouble than it's worth.
Hi naked, and afraid is a TV show where two people have to live together, naked in the wilderness and survive for a certain amount of days in the wilderness. I believe, but I haven’t really seen this going in in a while because I hadn’t had cable in a while, but I believe it is a man and a woman that live in the wilderness together And they have a timeline of how long they’re supposed to live before the people come and pick them up they have to live naked in the woods or in the wilderness surviving finding their food making their fire making their shelter everything so it’s not really what you think it’s a documentary show of people naked out in the wild surviving
@@peterfairlie2296 Haha more like "surviving in a car stuck on a long stretch of highway because nonsense protesters are fighting the wrong causes" before you even get to burning man.
hm i havent heard of that in Germany but rather i know about naked survival on a channel called DMAX, basically the same concept where a few people survive in some random place, and then they get graded based on how well they did and if they quit or not
there are also apps that let you watch certain channels for free i think it will be like FM radio tho, a superior option existing but like it still being offered
also yeah we have smart recievers where there isnt much special about them, they're actually pretty old and they have gotten a recent issue where the whole unit can just freeze up at any time, forcing the main switch to be switched off and on again i wanted to sleep once, it froze before, then it froze as i was getting ready to sleep, and then i just went "screw it" and unplugged it, plugged in the fire tv stick that was thankfully setup and attached to a HDMI port, and it was like night and day, no more static, no more freezing or having to mess with the Satellite to get signal, and like yeah i have never plugged the reciever in ever after that also like my TV is a basic Phillips that tends to have seizures and it isnt smart by any means
Haven't tried it but I do know this same thing used to happen on Dish when I was growing up. My family had an old box and dish that I would mess with over the years and every now and then, there would be free previews like this. Wish I still had it around to rig up where I am now that I know a lot more of what I'm doing.
In the UK my Stepgrandad's area had a Cable service called Eurobell a Virgin Media verient available in Devon. And in the UK the version named Bell only was a record label owned by a dodgy person and had people who became dodgy themselves on it like your GG's but not everyone on the label was bad men and were just on it for a record deal.
Bell is/was a phone service in Canada, one of the original phone companies a century ago using the "Bell" name in North America. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Canada
I have an old Orby tv system still hooked up and get about eight channels. Most are religious channels and some news channels. They broadcast for free. I bought a box but can't get it to work and pick up anything.
@@peterfairlie2296 it just happened that it was a month where free preview channels were being offered. After this free preview time, they would not be available unless subscribed to. Typically a few months later, free preview again would be provided again for a short period of time, and repeat ongoing.
I remember trying to get CBC. Vancouver on C Band...back in the late 80s and early 90s... also CHCH channel 11 from Hamilton...this is when I was in Los Angeles California... there was times I got Oak Scrambling...I would had to get a Decoder for Canada...it was always upsetting because it should be open to view since It was not a pay channel....the weird thing was I would get HBO and Showtime in the clear....The memories yes!!!.... do anyone remember the Denver 5 and Satellite City!?
I found this on Wiki. Seems linear TV is dying a slow death thanks to streaming. On August 17, 2023, in response to Videotron removing Bell Media's Vrak and Z TV channels from their TV services, Bell removed Yoopa from all of their TV platforms citing declining subscribers, shrinking audiences and lower market value. Vrak eventually shut down at the stroke of midnight on September 30 that same year. Nearly three months later, on November 13, 2023, Groupe TVA announced that the channel would be shut down on January 11, 2024
Vrak was among the channels my father had taken when returning with Bell... and so was Yoopa. It was more entertaining when Vrak was "Le Canal Famille." (FYI, I grew up with this channel)
That's becuase some channels are offred by what it called free to air. Meaning and Cable TV system can host it at no cost to thier end users. So any one with the hardware can pick an C-band radio spectrum TV channel. I may have mod it to get more then just 6 channels since Satellite receivers you get form company's like Dish Network are like the boxes you get form the Cable TV system thier locked down. In fact I'm at war with my Landlord over the contact she has Cox Cable TV since I what to move to LUS Fiber.
I haven't watched it before but even I've heard of the title of film Kramer Versies Kramer in the fully spelt out way so thats what that was in a foreign language.
I had a receiver that also picked up on some other countries satellites such as Azerbaijan (AZERSAT so no paid programming or anything) if my memory serves right it also picked up on Iran as well? albeit they were limited in channel. It also picked up on some pay to view channels and I could view the ads for them in channels the channels themselves were locked sadly
@@peterfairlie2296The receiver was configured mainly to get Turksat,so the other satelites were a nice bonus. It just came to me now albeit I am not sure but I remember seeing History Channel on it.
@@AbsoluteDigitalPictures it's literally dish network but foe a different region that's why they use the exact same remotes, recievers, satellite dishes

I appreciate how you have multiple TVs and spectrum analyzer in your kitchen. Haha I used to have an o-scope and soldering station in my kitchen.

RADIO CANADA (CBC FRENCH)
It is Radio-Canada Montréal. It is available all the time, whereas the free preview channels come and go for those who don't subscribe.

now you should do a video on how to a old cable box up and running
YES
Is this in Canada or in the USA?
Canada
Could I get this in California? Just aim it at the right coordinates and it should work, no? I would obviously need a bell box though.
Bell is just DISH Network Canada. Even the receivers from Bell look like the old DISH ViP Receivers.
Dish has made quite the upgrade over the years.
ICIMH it's how you call it the French CBC channel, ICI is for ICI Radio-Canada Télé from Montreal's HD feed
"pregnant" hahaha thats a good term for bulging caps
Had a question...do u have to have a big dish or a reg size or 3ft or smaller dish???

It should work anywhere in America & Canada
Yes Talking Before Coffee
Will this get over the air channels
i have several old bell receivers, with no smart cards. Bell deactivates them and there are no channels on any of them.
