I just witness 110 PPV movies drop out. This has been confirmed at several locations, it appears to be 1/2 of the echo 6,8 satellite stopped transmitting/no signal.

Can anyone else confirm please?

I too noticed the drop off. I'm not sure about percentages, but many of the 110 channels say no signal. 119 seems to be OK for now.

Same here. If I had to guess, I would say Charlie's having trouble with the 110 . It's happened before in the past. Probably spent all his money on these key changes and couldn't pay the rent this month.

Likely just technical dificulties. This has happened before. They have had problems at their uplink centers too. Storms/Power. That may be it.

nice to see u here Bt boy You all are right can not get ppv and some of the other pay channels like showtime movie channel etc. But on the bright side if you have the DVB card My Theatre nothing has been touch from them . I am presently watching Flight of the Phoenix. Tried to keep all bases covered. Good Luck to us all!!
