I just had a New 3 Sat LNBF Installed on My 60 CM Home Shaw Direct system Today. In order to make this work with My series 600 PVR the Receiver had to be reprogrammed.
The only reason We bothered to "Upgrade" is to receive more HD Channels on Our New HD TV Set! 200 New HD Channels coming in Early June!
I also ordered an additional New HD Receiver and an LNBF to fit the 75 CM Dish which We take with Us while traveling South each Winter.
I have it on good authority (Shaw Technical Support)that The New Satellites transmission Beam will Not be available more than 100 Miles South of the 49th However The Original 2 Will continue to work as far down as Guatemala on the 75 CM Dish.
I will be taking along an Older Receiver and LNBF just in case the New Types don't work "As advertised"
