It really is not a big deal...during the Thanksgiving/Christmas season (or some time late last year/early this year), Sky Angel also dropped the Hallmark Channel over contract issues temporarily....it happens. They also posted the "technical difficulties excuse thing" . If I remember correctly, Hallmark also asked viewers NOT to contact Sky Angel.....
QUOTE(Zephyr @ Apr 19 2006, 07:51 PM) [snapback]127236[/snapback] Sky Angel on the diosh Network DBS system has booted 3ABN. Many SDas like me got this satellite service only because of 3ABN and the constant advertising by our church. Does anyopne know why 3ABN was taken off SkyAngel? Gere is 3ABN's statement on this : ...3ABN is currently listed on the website as being a present part of the Sky Angel package.... http://www.skyangel.com/Programming/Index....neup&Id=27&t=Tv This post has been edited by simplysaved: Apr 24 2006, 02:36 PM -------------------- "No weapon formed against YOU (Sarah--and every Believer/Servant of God) shall prosper and every tongue that rises against you in judgement you will condemn...."--Isaiah 54:17

Unless an official announcement from 3ABN or skyangel comes out, stating difinitively that 3ABN has been dropped from the Skyangel lineup, we should assume that 3ABN will be back. There has been no real indication that I have seen anywhere that 3ABN is gone for good.

QUOTE(Clay @ Apr 21 2006, 11:00 AM) [snapback]127421[/snapback] why is that? I received this email from 3ABN 3ABN has sent you the following message: TEN COMMANDMENT WEEKEND UPDATE: In the event 3ABN hasn't been restored on Sky Angel by May 5 & 6, Sky Angel has graciously agreed to air 3ABN on Channel 9702 from 7:00 PM ET to Midnight on May 5th and from 9:00 AM ET to 9:00 PM ET on May 6th. -------------------- "Press on, regardless...what's to come is better than what's been...!"

A poster, MikeCTM2, at www.satelliteguys.us has posted an important new option concerning the Hope Channel. Check out his post here:
http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php...1062#post551062 The post mentions that: A technician, Jeff, at the Hope Channel said that the dual LNBF [the inside horn of the satellite dish that grabs the satellite signal that bounces off the back of your satellite dish] is "in manufacture" and will be available soon. The dual LNBF can pick up two satellites: AMC4 and IA5. The MikeCTM2 post also says: "We got the system at Hope Network because it was available with the receiver that can record programs while we are at work. The 3ABN system is cheaper but does not record programs for later viewing." Hope Channel Telephone Number given at Satelliteguys.us : (866-552-6728) |

This is FTA - Free to Air television. No subscription needed to any of the three systems you mentioned above to get the free channels. This means that if you have your satellite dish pointed at AMC-4, you can get all of the "free to air stations" available on that satellite, plus a bunch more channels on IA-5, if you have the new satellite dish system from Hope Channel. You can record stuff while you are away, as well. However, up until now, many people were limited to having their satellite dish pointed to just one satellite, AMC-4 As I understand it, a dual LNBF system allows you to get signals from two FTA satellites at once. This is because IA-5 is at 97 degrees west longitude, and AMC4 is at 101 degrees west longitude, (relatively close to each other in the sky). This means you can sit in your house and watch all of the FTA channels on these two satellites with the newer system from Hope TV, without monkeying with your satellite dish located up on the roof. This type of system will give Hope Channel more availability to non-adventist FTA viewers, generally, who normally watch the TV and Radio channels on IA-5. If non-adventists buy a system like this, they can also watch the channels on AMC-4. I found a Web page that has more information, generally, about available FTA channels, subject to change without notice (and other technical errors). http://www.glorystar.tv/page/show/7 Focus on the listings for the two satellites mentioned: AMC 4 and Intelsat Americas 5. I think this is a really good option for some viewers, since the Sky Angel (Echostar 3) satellite seems to be nearing the end of its useful life.

The longer 3abn stays off Sky Angel, the more I am inclined to believe it is more than technical problems. Time will tell. This has to have started hurting them financially. Why donate if you are not receiving the service.

This has to have started hurting them financially. Why donate if you are not receiving the service. It is clear to any clear thinking person that the problem includes more than mere technical issues. Considering the apparent lavish lifestyles and the Jim and Tammy Baker-like shuttling expenses I agree it is hurting Danny... thanksfully the preaching of the Gospel goes on in more direct and less and costly ways...with people who are known in their communitties by those to whom they preach... If 3ABN never came back I would miss some good programming but overall it would be a blessing not to have to put up with Danny's foolishness for all the world to see. -------------------- "I believe what my church teaches.

My hubby and I sensed that when it went off the air. Sure, it could be some tech problems, but it all boils down that God is the one who is in control. When Danny announced his new bride on 3ABN, and we seen that, my husband told me that (he didn't know what was going on)if Danny was not right in getting married again, something would happen. We thought maybe people would stop giving donations, or Danny would have to resign. Shortly after that, 3ABN went off the air on sky angel. I believe God is in control, and if he wants this back in air, He will do it. As someone said, time will tell..... This post has been edited by denisebyers: May 2 2006, 01:59 PM |
