    If my husband would block 'my' channels and there was no medical reason for it, he would find himself 'blocked'. Could you afford a second satellite receiver?

    If you can't find Sewing With Nancy / Fons and Porter on PBS, try QNN. That's an internet network that I REALLY like - costs about $25/yr and worth EVERY cent! Tell your DH to LIGHTEN UP!!!

    You are SO-O-O lucky!!!! Because I can only find 2 on Sat. and the station does not always have them on - there apparently are not enough quilter/sewers in Texas to make it pay for them!!!

    I haven't been able to find any quilting shows on Dish; however, I have a small tv connected to satalite (I think) though the "box" that the government helped anyone get about 2 years ago. This tv enables me to view a PBS station which shows Quilt in a Day, Fons and Porter, Martha's Sewing Room, and some needlework shows on Sunday afternoons. So on Sunday afternoons I can be found sitting in the basement in the floof in front of this small tv. (the corner where the tv can be plugged in does not allow room for a chair).

    Tell him you are ordering your own box and monitor for your sewing room or tell him that you are cutting back on kitchen hours to reflect your lack of hours with the TV.
    I hope you live in a community property state!

    I have Dish also and the BYU and RFD channels have the Fons & Porters show and the Eleanor Burns Quilt In A Day shows. They come on sometimes at multiple times so I can DVR mine and watch them when I want and keep them for later reference if it's a good one. Happy watching.......
