Aren't you guys tired already of the IMHO extreme bombarding of Ads throught the year or should I say throught your lifetime? I can understand the reasons why they exist I just can not comprehend that (as per polls anyways) most people seem to acctually prefer to watch the sport event just for the Ads rather than the game itself? (Although in my opinion this is just a marketing plot that the media explodes to manipulate viewers into thinking that the Ads are acctually "cool" so they can sell their time slots for more money)

Anyways I have a PVR and in the rare cases that I watch something live I always change to a recorded show during the Ads, Timeshifting is a way "cooler thing" than the any other Ads (although there are some that are acctually very good but you will see them throughout the year anyways , so why bother).

Well , let me start scanning the skies with the "Big" 6 foot C Band dish looking for the CBS Full HD Master Feed coming from the Dolphin Stadium with no Ads at all but at the highest possible resolution and bandwith. These Master feeds blow out of the water even the 19.2 Mb/s signal from WIVS which is one of the best OTA signals in out region. They are usually carried on a dedicated single transponder that has at least 36 Mhz bandwith, usually at around 30 000 SR or even higher (FTA PVR's sttuter playing those) but nowadays they use newer modulation schemes like 8PSK and DVB-S2 digital format with higher FEC (5/6 or above) therefore they are very difficult to lock to with a "small" 6 or 8 footer Dishes. Let's see if I am lucky today. If not , well there is always WIVB.
