When YouTube Premium Lite 'officially' became available in the US in early March, many (mainly existing Premium subscribers) were unable to switch to the Lite plan. I chatted with YT support several times and each time they gave different excuses as to why I did not see YT Lite as an option...

Dish's site has a page (https://my.dish.com/infocenter) where it has if you have purchased your receiver then the monthly equipment fee is less ~ specifically for me the Hopper 3 drops to $5/month. I got on Dish Customer Support chat and asked about how I can go about purchasing my Hoppper 3 and...

I was doing some recording cleanup (purging recordings that the kids had watched but didn't delete) and got into an issue where I deleted all the "Family Guy" On-Demand recordings. I thought I had removed them all but the icon is still there under DVR > On Demand (Free & Rented). If I navigate...

Anyone experienceing (or ever experienced) issue where even transponders have zero signal strength but odds are fine (in the 30s which is where they were upon installation)... I realized this trying to tune to 367 Smithsonian Channel but get Error 002 screen showing Satellite 72, Transponder 24...

Anyone else having issue with 2x2 (aka 4 channels) PiP with Hopper 3? It's been acting up at least all day today. I've done two resets but still get same thing. I can "change channels" and go through menus but when it's supposed to be showing video I get this. Once I get this messed up screen I...

If you're looking for uplink activity: The Uplink Activity Center

Has anyone else in ATL been experiencing problems with channel 8? I'm on WA and talking about the satellite feed. I noticed a few weeks back they had the "we are experiencing technical difficulties, don't call" screen up. However for the past few days it seems like half the time when I tune to...

Sorry if this is old news, but I just learned (from commercial on BB@H promo channel) that you can get 6 months for $5/month. The commercial said you could upgrade online. I couldn't find the deal online but when I had chat session with CSR she was well aware of the deal and upgraded.

I just got a '14 Ford Fusion with the 6-month trial subscription to their 'All Access' package. I went to tune to KidzBop channel (77) for the kids but the channel was not listed as available. My old car was a Toyota and it had the channel. My wife's car is a Chevy and it has it too. Anybody...

So how does the hopper know it's a commercial? Does it just listen for the audio track to double? Is there somebody at the uplink center pressing a 'this is a commercial' button? So what happens if you're watching a show about, "World's Funniest Commecials"? ...does it just skip over the...

I pulled this from the modem diagnostics page with DishNet satellite service I just had installed this past Sunday. Can anybody translate this into a possible cause/solution? Looking at the hourly history I have 'X's across ALL the times for the 'downlink' category (for 'hourly history' and...

FREE SHIPPING FOR GEEKS! (aka SatelliteGuys members) I am selling these items on EBay and wanted to share links. If you choose to buy, click 'make an offer' and enter $35. In the comments field enter "SatelliteGuys" and I will accept the offer.. So you're essentially getting free...

I know that Sirius and XM are now 'one company' but what about the hardware? I have heard SiriusXM (via factory radio in Chevrolet) and also Sirius (in Saturn with wired FM modulator to Starmate5 receiver)... The sound quality sounds better in the Saturn compared to the Chevrolet...

I just noticed a problem and am wondering if anybody else notices the same thing. This is on a ViP722k (Software L750RMKB-N). -Manually entering another SiriusXM channel number (ex 6009) when already on a SiriusXM channel (ex 6002) and the display keeps trying to jump back to showing the...

If you have any DVDs or Blu-Ray Discs of movies that are "family friendly" (Disney Movies, Animated cartoons, etc., etc) that you are trying to get rid of, please let me know. We need the videos for the organization where I work: Harbor House--a facility that serves children and their families...

I'm interested to see what content is showing up via the 'unplugged' feature. Since I live in rural area with no broadband, the WOOHOO moment for me was when I heard the HJ setup had VOD that was delivered via satellite. Can anybody please post what sort of VOD content/programming is coming in...

Any official word as to what happened (technically) 9/13 & 9/14 with the 129 satellite? After all the talk about the loss, watching all the uplink changes, and 'rebirth' of HD to western-arc customers, I'm just techno-geek curious to know what caused it in the first place. I assume Dish knows...

Any opinions from anybody in the markets (Phoenix, SLC, Oklahoma City, Tucson) about the new weather scan channels? I live in ATL so don't have it "yet" :D but I'm curious to know what it looks like and how useful it seems--especially compared to the existing TWC app (via ch 100) that's been...

I've noticed lately that if I try to turn on (aka wake up) TV2 when TV1 is off (aka asleep), sometimes it takes upwards of 15-30 seconds to get video, audio, and the remote to function. Sometimes the banner comes up with info and eventually the picture comes up. The first few times I was...

I'm currently on WA and it seems that the compression (and thus pixelation) on channels is getting higher and higher as more and more HD is added. Has anybody been able to do a comparison of picture quality between WA and EA? ..or is there a way to tell by the info on 'the list'? I'm...

I am currently on 110/119/129 but lose 129 pretty quickly due to rain fade... and 119, 110 are quick to follow. The dish is peaked so it's not an issue of alignment. I have LOS for all three satellites in EA and 3 of the 'old school' dish 300s (with Dish Pro LNBs that I can use). My receiver...

Are there any plans for RTV to be carried via Dish?--either some national feeds and/or added in with locals for DMAs with RTV? Are there any rumors (or anything official) where Dish and RTV have discussed possible options? ...Sure would be nice... I bet that RTV would get more viewers...

Did Dish Network drop the German channels or move them to another satellite? I was flipping through the guide and those channels aren't listed in the guide anymore. I have ViP622 pointed at 110, 118, 119, 129... and the channels aren't locked out either... I used to subscribe to the...

I remember hearing about a package that Dish offers for people who are just getting into the cable/pay television market.... It was only about 15 or 20 channels if I remember and it was designed for people who only had FTA channels and were upgrading equipment due to the digital transition...

QUESTION 1) What size dish do I need to receive 11720 V, and 11799 V transponders from the Galaxy 10r (123W) satellite? I setup my system and I get 10 channels from the blind scan: KBS World, CEA, 3CTV, 3C Community, CEA, TimeShift, Retrojams, KBZT, and 2 pay channels. (The DishPointer site...
