Fun with FTAers,

We are greatful to have friends and supporters like yourselves. Please know that we will never intentionally do anything to damage your trust in us. When we say we have something, especially in release notes, then we have it.

Right now, Is anyone NOT able to watch TV with their Maggie?

As for DTV... which we have moved to a totally seperate(single provider) bin project, please don't think it is in any way unaccomplishable.

About V142... I believe that version came and went without being released. We are reducing the overhead of map57 on b3v. In fact we are moving global and provider specific parameters around in preparation for map57 on DN. On 01-27-07, in the Shoutbox of funwithfta, I said we would release V142 and we were not able to complete our testing. So that one was on me!!!! Please forgive me. I will do my best to minimize the "bin release" roller coaster ride.

I would only ask that you please not compare us to the "salesman" that works for that "other" company.

Thanks for everything you do to make FTA a great hobby,

So am I understanding this right......Extreme is trying to come out with a bin for DAVE? I had read earlier something about phase I but I thought it had to do with DTV dish swithes.

I do not see how they are going to do it from what I have read. I asked them about this here: http://forums.dsstester.com/vbb/showthread.php?p=481965#post481965

It seems that DTV is something they are playing around with. Thats good. When and if its ready it will be great. If it never comes about it really doesnt matter since we dont have much chance of getting DTV any other way right now.

Let them play and hope the get it right. If they dont we still have Dish & B#v.

The ideea to have a super BIN for 1 provider ( until you can combine 2 or maybe 3 providers ) is excelent ! Anyone can whatch the bird and programs that he/she wants and the bin will work better ; when all providers work flowless , put it together and will have a party ! Good luck ! :) :beer:
