alocomexi · March 26th, 2009

**just4ufolks** · March 26th, 2009

It has been in the works and all previous reports have been validated so there is little room for rumors NOW...again stay tuned tho..BUT be safe to assume n consider the time lines mentioned as effectice..n..consistant with reports..

**pparme** · March 26th, 2009

If this is the coming of the end will there be stb's that we can get to keep testing? If there is going to be this big crash what boxes would you suggest?

suwulee · March 28th, 2009

Thanks for letting me know.

**arboristman** · March 28th, 2009

good update.ty GH.
well if the exact dates are missed or not,its no rumor.
soon after much more than adult programming will go black as well.
buckle up.its probably going to be a bumpy ride.

Guys, in your posts you say that "all" receivers will be affected. I thought some stbs running IKS would be or are N3 capable? Can you please clarify?
