    How things have changed

    Yes it will, do you actually believe when the company is losing money, no hope for a turn around, they will keep service up just so not to hurt the subscribers left? Not how business economics works.

    How things have changed

    Orby wasn't a company that has been in business for 30 years .... Most never even knew they existed.

    How things have changed

    How bad did it get for Orby before they decided to "just turn OFF the Signal and go home"?

    The Zapperbox M1 Now Records ATSC 3.0 DRM Channels!

    Oh, I'll admit they seem to have by FAR the best tech team, and a nice device. I just think it's overpriced by at least triple what it's worth.

    no picture. signal resolution is on most of the times then goes off briefly, all buttons on the remote work but I never get a picture. It's an AMIKO

    Bill, we need a lot more information, or description as this post doesn't have enough info to tell anything, sorry. What sort of dish, KU or C-band, what is your hookup, any switches, did it EVER work, etc.

    Newest H3 software.

    On the H+, not sure is it because of P12801 or H374 but it seems the nightly reboots is only rebooting the H+ and not the H3 as it will reboot with the something is not right and also, the recordings recorded during the nightly reboots as I have something from 12:45AM-3:15AM when nightly reboot...

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    will the teams push to have local control of there own broadcasts? Force an lower cost min sub for local market games (like how all local games are on free tv)

    Welcome to Satellite Guys! By 'signal resolution' do you mean the signal quality reading is good most of the time? Which satellite/channels are you trying to get? P.S. I will be heading to bed soon. If you don't hear from me tonight that's why. I (or someone else) will get back to you after...

    110/119 Listings Post 129 Transition (Updated 4/13/2024)

    This past week Dish removed channels 144 and 145 - they were the ESPN alternate channels. I don't recall the last time they were used. In the past they were used for the reverse mirrors of games on ABC/ESPN2 as well as the women's NCAA basketball tournament. But the past couple of years those...

    As in the above, signal resolution is good MOST of the time, then fades to nothing then comes back. All responses from the remote are ok. I just never have a picture to show. It's a newer AMIKO receiver, about a year old.

    Need Information & Advice

    Thank-you. Actually I just found info on Wiki How that said that the Hopper 3, Hopper Duo or Hopper with sling receivers have wireless wifi on board so that should be the answer. But I will discuss all of this with the installer 1st & then go from there. It's just hard to make a change after 27...

    New Install, new equipment?

    Dish and Direct merging at some point is the only path forward, just like Sirius and XM. There will always be a market for satellite tv for the foreseeable future, but the market share is certainly shrinking every day. We’ll also see streamers and tv providers continue to consolidate and merge...

    What's for dinner ?

    1 Carne asada taco, 1 battered and fried avocado taco and 1 chicken fajita taco with a couple of Mexican Lagers. It's been a rough couple of days. I needed to decompress.

    Odd Wally Behavior

    First few times the sat went through check switch (full green bar filled to right end) but then before "acquiring signal" it went to full screen about no satellites and check for obstructions. I could hear antenna working normally, especially when I had it on roof of trailer. I usually bring a...

    Need Information & Advice

    Yes we have a device called a hopper internet connector (hic) that will do what the dtv equipment is doing and allow a hard wired internet connection. There's other solutions as well as dish sells mesh routers to extend your wifi network. Works 100x better than a wifi extender but does cost...

    Odd Wally Behavior

    When you first plug it in does it go through the check switch automatically? As in, does it detect the playmaker. If so when you first plug it in can you hear the dish inside moving and if so does it sound deep like it's moving under load or does it sound high and fast like there's no load...

    Odd Wally Behavior

    I'm at a campsite, (been here often and know where 110/119 is) and I set up my Wally and Playmaker antenna. I get a "no satellites found" message. Ok, maybe it was the adjacent large RV south of me, but after moving antenna 4 times, including on my trailer roof, I keep getting "no satellites...

    Need Information & Advice

    I have been with Direct TV for 27 years, but due to the prices going up & up & my hubby close to retiring, I have been looking how to start cutting some costs. I had a DISH rep come by earlier this week & assured me that he could get us on DISH with everything we now have on DTV for $100.00 less...
