    Dish Network 5G Internet?

    Have they announced planned coverage areas? Where they will be putting up towers? I'm stuck with fixed wireless now. It's not bad but it's not great either. Starlink is planned for mid 2022 here.

    HBO Max

    I'm sure eventually they will be on HBO, after they are out of theaters and have sold Blu-ray's for a while. Just like normal in theater movies.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Tonight's ALDS game will be on in 4k. I flipped over to the football game last night for a few minutes, and the clarity was great, but the colors still look muted.

    I'm with Dish for at least another year

    Right. The guy I talked to told me $109 then when he processed it he sounded surprised and said it came back even cheaper. $105. Not sure where the discrepancy came from.

    It was $97 before I added HBO. I added HBO so it should have gone to $109. Discounts expired, it went to $149. $149 included HBO. Then they discounted $40 off. My timeline was confusing in the first post.

    I'm with Dish for at least another year

    I don't know what they called the discounts this time. Last time, I was getting both of those. I do have the OTA dongle but for whatever reason, OTA recordings pixelate about every 3 seconds. It's happened to every recording I've ever tried. Dish doesn't have my local CW in HD, so I've tried...

    It was. But I don't know if it's kosher to talk about discount amounts around here. Edit: basically, I went from $97/month before, I added HBO Max for $12/month, and my total bill now, same programming, will be $105.

    I'm with Dish for at least another year

    My bill was $97/month for a H3 and 2 Joeys with the AT120+. My discounts expired and the bill went to $149. I called and they offered me $10 off of that. I really only need Dish for live sports. We can get our shows we watch elsewhere. But my internet isn't reliable enough to go full time...

    Any plans to bring Dish Anywhere to Apple TV?

    So you hate Apple? Got it. On the fees, I don't think it costs anything to have a free app other than the $99/year developer license. They only charge if you're charging for the app or charging for in app purchases. No different than on the iPhone or iPad. They obviously already have the...

    hbo max adding on

    Somehow I had prorated charges of more than a full month. I just got my bill and it has the $12 charge for HBO plus prorated charge of $15.09.

    Any plans to bring Dish Anywhere to Apple TV?

    That's what I was thinking. I know I can airplay but that's not always convenient. It's easier to use an app on the Apple TV.

    Any plans to bring Dish Anywhere to Apple TV?

    The Dish Anywhere app is great, but I prefer the Apple TV streaming device to the Fire Stick. It would be great to have that option.

    Did I kill my EHD?

    Definitely open disk manager and see if it shows up there. Sometimes they won't show up in a windows explorer window, but they will in disk manager.

    Sinclair warns of 112 channels being dropped by DISH next Monday (8/16)

    I wish MLB.tv would show in market games, then I wouldn't worry about Sinclair channels at all. But I haven't been able to watch the Rays in a couple years now.

    No. It's been going on for a long time. I looked it up at the time and it was a widespread issue with the OTA adapter. I just found this thread. Recording OTA On H3 Playback Pixelated I guess I need a new OTA adapter.
