Does anyone in Los Barriles care to come fish Lopez? I have property available in Lopez Mateos. Living in Loreto, many from our community fish Lopez, several with second homes. It's close & different. Fishermen in Los Barriles, not much further, likely would enjoy Lopez similarly. Any fishermen from Los Barriles are welcome to stay free at my place in Lopez getting to know it, talking with locals & fishing both mangroves & the Pacific. Please see http://www.bajacalifornian.com/  ; Jeff Petersen bajahi@msn.com
If I am too lengthy, kindly reply.

b. Regarding the Otay border crossing, has anyone driven it from the north lately down to the toll road? I crossed there going north via the Ensenada toll road last spring on the Road 2000 and would like to use that route again but am not sure if it's in good condition and would like some directions going south so I can pass it on to friends. I heard that the earthquake last year caused some damage. We stayed at the Hotel Lausana, just a few blocks west on the MX side and would recommend it to anyone, it's really nice on US standards and safe..see www.hotel-lausana.com  . Thanks for the info,

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

a. Regarding Dini Jaskowski's question about the HughesNet HN9000 satellite Internet system working in Santa Rosalia - Sorry, this system won't work outside the US because it has an HN9000 modem. Only the HughesNet 6000 and 7000 series modems work here in BCS. The 9000 modems use a different frequency and satellite visible only in the US. These 9000-based systems are also very sensitive to where they're located, and cannot be moved even a few miles without losing satellite lock.

b. RE: Pointing Your Dish at Dish Network's satellite at 129°
          Regarding Mary Fedorka's question about moving her dish from Dish Network's 61.5° Satellite (BPE #893), most likely you have an East Coast service address with Dish Network so they think you may be receiving the 61.5° satellite. This might be correct for a Dish Network system installed on the East Coast of the US where you can pick up multiple satellites with a single small dish, but it doesn't apply to a system located in Baja California Sur. From here, you would need an awfully large dish to pick up that satellite so it's very unlikely you have that satellite now.
          From our location in Baja California Sur, there are two main Dish Network satellites available, the main satellite at 119° carrying the bulk of Dish Network's standard-definition channels, and another satellite at 129° carrying high definition channels. If you're receiving high definition channels in Buena Vista now, then you must already have a two-dish system installed with one of your dishes pointed at the 129° satellite. If you only have one dish, then it's already pointed at the 119° satellite, not the one at 61.5°.
          Don't worry about it. If Dish Network calls again, tell them "a friend already pointed you onto the 129° satellite." :)
