    Any '25 Black Friday Peacock Deals?

    Well, I just used a McDonald's Monopoly winning game piece code, to re-subscribe to Peacock for two months for FREE. After the end of the two months, it auto-renews month to month. I'll just cancel before that happens, or perhaps there will be a cheap yearly offer coming out eventually.

    NECO is really probably supposed to be "RECO" short for "RECOVERY" mode... Just a mistake, or due to the way the display works making the first character look like an N.

    I think the receiver when it boots into recovery menu and you see NECO on the display just press OK on remote twice it should boot into slot one and the display should change to numbers or dashes once booted. IF no picture still then I'd say hardware failure.

    I checked the HDMI ports on the TV and receiver, they are both fine. What I don't understand is that when I hit the menu button the correct menu came up. It was when I went to scroll down to what I wanted is when the video went dark. I was positive I hit the down arrow, but now I am not sure...

    Dish Anywhere on 5 devices?

    I found this additional info on the Dish Anywhere site. What is the difference between Live Streaming and Live Satellite? Thinking maybe if a channel is offered for Signal Protector that might be “live streaming”? Sling (Live Satellite or DVR) streaming limits: One stream at a time per...

    Still Fighting Intermittent Interference

    I have been having this problem for probably close to 5 years now on and off. I ordered the C140 Titanium LNB and have it installed now but I'm still having the trouble as much as before, strangely. Odd thing is it only affects 4180 H on 101 W other carriers are fine, and even stranger when it's...

    Well if see the Octagon logo then HDMI is set to the correct input. Black screen with NECO on the display is not normal. I don't know what it could be.

    Do you mean make sure the hdmi is secure at the TV and the receiver? I don't understand what you mean by "Tv hdmi port is set?" The Octagon logo comes on the TV during the start of the reboot and then it goes black when NECO comes on the receiver.

    Yes when you see NECO on the display you should be seeing the recovery menu on the screen. You sure your Tv hdmi port is set? didn't get changed. Try another TV if you can.

    Any '25 Black Friday Peacock Deals?

    Ok, I've heard on Reddit that anybody that canceled their $19.99/yr Black Friday special and it expired, you can contact Peacock via their live chat messaging system and ask IF you can also get the $39.99/yr special that was offered to others when they canceled. Even IF you didn't get that...

    Or you can use a VPN and watch it on Netflix from Canada, which is how I am going to do it. I do it for RAW and Smackdown that way and many times it is commercial free. You get to see other interviews, or the matches continue during the commercial breaks.

    That worked, I got it to show UPdt on the receiver. Do I do anything more or just wait for something else to happen? UPDATE: I got UPdt to come up and after a few seconds it showed "neco" on the receiver. After that nothing happens. Should the menu show on the TV or what?

    Hopper 3 with sling already bit the dust installed 11-13

    anything made today is ready to hit the landfills as soon as it leaves the factories. it's not like back in the 50's where stuff was built to last and if something broke it could be fixed easily and cheap

    Terrible call to DiSH

    try recording with a duo when two tv's are being used :rolleyes: even a hopper with sling is cut throat unless for a single person with one tv... the hopper 3 is the way to go it's upgradeable and expandable if need be. never any recording conflicts :)
