Steve,
Thanks for the info on identifing when FAP is invoked. I chedcked and
I cecked the last 2 months and I have not hit FAP once. So I can count
that out for the poor performance. I did have 2 repair people come out
and they replaced the modem and transponder. I don't know if they
checked for grounding. Are there key spots in the installation where
this can be checked?
Like I said before they did fix it about 3 weeks ago and gave me a
call asking me how me system was runing. At that point it was runing
better than I have ever seen it. I know they did something on their
end but it didn't last and now the deny they did anything. It
shouldn't have to be this way. If you go to RippOFFReport.com and
search for Direcway you will see story after story simular to mine.
You said "I still wonder if it could be recommisioned on a different
transponder
> or satellite, something like that."
Can you explain what you meant by that?
