We have completed the finishing touches to the new Caribe TV system. This week we installed a software upgrade to the system and new hardware equipment. The result of this will be that every TV will need to be rescanned. The analog channels that duplicated the HD channels have been moved to channels 112 and above. The channels are now consolidated as such with no duplication of analog and digital channels sitting next to each other. This system is now state of the art and has an outstanding picture. Hopefully these upgrades will eliminate some of the viewing problems we have been experiencing in the past.
Many owners have asked about being able to record via a DVR etc.. This is now possible with the purchase of a TiVo box. In addition, if you choose to keep an older analog TV you can now use the TiVo box to get all the channels without purchasing a new TV. Tivo boxes can be purchased at Best Buy, Amazon etc… for around $100.00.
Please note that in the spriing of 2013 we plan to eliminate the analog channels so plan to either purchase a new TV or a TiVo set top box.
As summer comes to an end we will be consentrating our efforts on getting the deep cleaning and maintenance to the common areas addressed. In addtion the board has asked for a capital expense list that will be planned for in the coming months so please pay attention to your mail and notifications.
On August 23rd thru the 26th there will be a SEC beach fest promotion in Gulf Shores to kick off the college football season. For more information and tickets please call the Caribe front desk at 251.980.9000.
Life is better at the beach so come on down!
