What is even more surprising about MT's setup is his processor, ram, hard
disk. I'll let him shock you with the surprise if he wants to. Perhaps
there is something about the way his receiver is profiled or his vintage of
motherboard. It could also be that BMI has dropped enough other symbols
that the counts are now better than they were a few months to a year back.
All I can say is if I could get the counts he does on BMI, I would pay DTN
to take my dish and receiver back and steal someone's BMI system. I know,
this sounds extreme but the lack of the separate issue and volume statistics
will be why I do not renew the lease at the end of the year. After all the
discouraging email I received from others who had discussed this same issue
in years past with DTN, I don't have much expectation that DTN and Omega
software will be a complete solution within a year.
According to the http://www.dynastorelight.com there is a combination of
TS4/Dynastorelight/UMDS/DTN but the breadth information would still not be
accessable.
