    WB network and other network merging

    Apparently by this fall, WB will no longer exist, a new network will be in existence combining programming from WB and I think it was Universal's UPN network? Maybe, going from memory there. I'm less than thrilled, as I've been a pretty big WB viewer. Change isn't always good, and who else is sick of mergers?

    I watch both UPN and WB. In fact, the first thing I do on mornings is turn on WB to get the local weather, traffic and news. I am not happy with the merger but I understand the reasons behind it. Both networks are foundering and if they merge, hopefully one will survive and preserve some of the existing popular programs. At least that's better than having both networks go down the tubes, leaving us with none of our favorite shows.

      Yeah, I guess that's it Glen. I watch WB quite a bit myself, as much as anything, their reruns. however, I was/am an Everwood fan. Though first, I hated that the moved the show from Monday this year, and second, it seems to be on hiatus right now.

      I used to watch Smallwood more, and Charmed, but I'll admit network has stolen me back for some shows I like this year more than those it seems.

      I guess it's true, what your saying though. Hopefully we will wind up with at least part of what we enjoy.

        Doug, have you seen the recent WB11 station commercials advertising the "new" network. The combined UPN9/WB11 will now be known as CW11 and will preserve several existing UPN9 programs.

          Yeah, but they totally gutted the WB, that was my favorite evening network.

          fact is, I may not know what to watch soon, unless I turn a DVD on.

            I'm just so happy that most of my favorite shows from both networks survived (mostly the one i was worried about was Veronica Mars). WHEW. (But I am sorry about Everwood. That one should have stayed and awful One Tree Hill been cancelled).

              I actually watched a bit of Veronica Mars last night, first time ever I think. Glad your show survived this level of cuts!

              Oh, if I survived loosing Friends and Frazier in 1 year, I can survive any TV show. lol. I admit, those two were tough losses in one year for me.

                Network UTP cable for speakers
                by pbarata
                Would you recommend using UTP cable, normal cable for PC Networks, to be used as an alternative to normal speaker cables? The cable is Avaya - SYSTIMAX 4 Pair Grey UTP 1071E GigaSPEED XL Cable, high quality cable network cable. I plan to group colour conductors for the positive pole and the white conducts...

                Modula MT delay network?
                by rlim
                Hi,
                Does the Modula MT crossover compensate for the fact that the tweeter and the driver are radiating from different planes, i.e. are there delay networks inserted in the tweeter side of the crossover, and if so, can someone point that out to me?

                Thanks,
                Richard

                crossover networks for waveguide loaded tweeters?
                by kappa546
                Most of the designs i've seen incorporate a simple 1 cap network to shape the WG boost down and achieve a 2nd order acoustic crossover. I noticed that all of the SP tech speakers took a little different approach and accomplished a 4th order LR acoustic xover at a much lower frequency (6-800hz). htt...

                Laptop Ugrades- things to watch out for
                by JonMarsh
                Upgrading a laptop?

                That's one of the things I usually advise friends NOT to do. There's a certain cost effectiveness to desktop upgrades, and of course, any fumble fingers can work on a modern desktop computer with few worries.

                Naturally, I rarely have enough sense to take...
