    Sling will not add to my Fire Stick guide

    Tonight when I got home, I tried to update the Sling app to the Fire Stick. I went to Live TV as usual, clicked on the services to update. All worked out fine, except for Sling. The 600+ channels (Sling Blue+Free), will not add to the Fire TV guide tonight. I checked for an update, and the Fire...

    Freevee TV will not update or load on Firestick

    Since yesterday, I have been unable to launch or update FreeVee TV on any of my Firesticks. I first thought it was a glitch in the cube, so I checked out two other Firesticks and the same issue. No update on channels or the channel will not load. I get some error message. I checked on the Roku...

    Connecting my Plex account to the Free Stick Live guide

    I recently did a Plex update on the Fire sticks & Cube, and since then I have been unable to tie the free Plex channels to my Fire Stick account. I have tried about everything I can think of. I must be missing something. I have deleted the Plex app, added it in again, re-signed in, changed the...

    LTE Interference question

    For the past several days I am getting LTE Interference. I have a 91XG yagi connected to a Windgard pre-amp on the mast. Never had any interference before. I do have two cel towers next to each other about a mile away about a mile way, no a hill. They are not inline with our translators at 12...

    Firestick

    I have a friend I was telling him about all of the channel apps free on the Firestick, so he went and bought one. I went over to his house to help him add apps. I showed him the guide that several apps will work on, such as Xumo, Pluto, Plex, Tubi, etc. He came up with 511 channels in the guide...

    OTA Tuners with guide question

    For years, I have tried to get "any" tuner that gives me a good guide on all OTA channels, without a lot of luck. From the companies, I get all sorts of excuses, the guide info isn't available, you use translators, so you cannot get guide info on them, and so on. According to the Portland OR...

    OTA 6.3 (KOIN) Portland Sports Grid, giving the wrong channel info

    For the past few days, on two of my OTA tuners I am getting the wrong program info on 6.3 KOIN Portland. The channel is the Sports Grid, yet I am getting the program guide for Rewind. Is this some glitch, or is Nexstar adding Rewind soon? I might add that I am getting KOIN via a Nexstar...

    Is Direct adding diginets?

    A friend told me that his bother has Direct and they recently added some diginets (Cozi, Bounce, and Grit). Is this true? I was told that Direct was not interested in diginets.

    Laff TV is gone from KPTV 12.3 Portland

    As of today, Laff TV is no longer on 12.3 Portland OR, as the ION station carries it. 12.3 has not been filled as yet. So we do not know what KPTV will carry.

    Re-cast being discontinued

    I read today that Amazon has discontinued the Re-cast. I guess the current ones will continue to function. No wonder I have not gotten Amazon to update their guide. So, it looks like I will in time have to find another set up to keep an up to date guide. This is disappointing news. We buy the...

    Decades, Start TV, MeTV, H&I, Story TV all on Frndly TV

    For those that do not have Weigel channels in their area, now there is a streaming option for most of these stations, only Movies! & METV+ aren't included, but Frndly TV now has H&I, Start TV, Metv, Decades, & Story TV. It isn't free ($6.99 for SD, $8.99 for HD & DVR), but still an option. We...

    Paramount +_

    Today my annual sub for Paramount Plus ran out. So I decided to go through Amazon for the 99 cent deal. I added it, but now I get to a page asking me for $4.99 or $9.99 sub. I picked it up directly to Amazon and not Paramount. Any idea what is going on? I down loaded the apt, but have not signed...

    Tegna is selling to private equity group Standard General

    I just read that Tegna, is selling to Standard General the 2nd half of 2022 when the Tegna BOD gives the green light. I wonder if there will be any changes? Tegna owns both KING/KONG Seattle as well as KGW/KGWZ Portland.

    Changing Paramount+ billing from Annually to Monthly

    Last year when Paramount+ started up, I got the deal of $50 for the year. The renewal is coming up next month for the $99. I do not get that much out of it, but I would still like to continue to watch a few more shows for a month or so. I have been trying to switch from Annual to Month to month...

    Dish vs Direct TV Pricing

    I just saw the new Direct TV pricing. All I can say is Ouch! I am glad to be with Dish even with disputes. Depending on what region you are in, I guess the pricing varies with Direct to top it off. For Sports fans I guess Direct is the place to go if you have the money to pay for it. I know...

    TV Translator vs LPTV question

    One of our OTA translators just switched from K36LI-D (Astoria OR) to KPWT-LD. Any idea why Weigel would switch from a translator to an LPTV? Is there any advantage? The station relays H&I/Start TV/Movies!/Decades/METV+. Thanks.

    Gray Television by the Meredith cluster

    For $2.8 billion, Gray TV has been given the green light to purchase the Meredith Stations. That includes both KPTV (Fox) and KPDX (My TV) Portland, so it looks like Dish will be dealing with Gray for re transmission fees from them in the NW. I presume the sub channels will change as Gray TV has...

    F2V TV now on Roku as a public channel

    For those that have been wanting to watch different diginets legally on the Roku, F2V TV is for you. Written permission has been given to Free to View TV to stream these channels. F2V TV has been a private channel for sometime. But apparently Roku has given the green light in their regular line...

    OTA Guides

    Does anyone know about where the OTA Guides come from? The reason I ask, as I reported early this morning, we have that new Weigel BC translator. I get either no guide or wrong guides on every OTA tuner, except for one. 1) Dish 211k receiver 3.1 H&I guide for some other service and 3.2-3.5 no...

    TV49 translators (Weigel Broadcasting)

    What a surprise it was to scan the TV today and to find we now have 5 new channels. Here on the Northern Oregon Coast! We have translators, 6 now giving us 32 OTA channels. The latest is TV49. Looked it up and apparently it has to do with Weigel Broadcasting. Their line up is 3.1 H&I, 3.2 Start...

    FMC Movie channel

    Apparently we have another new channel, only in SD called FMC (#387). A Classic Movie channel with ads and only in SD. Interesting movies, but I have no idea how many ads per hour. Generally I quit watching movies on commercial channels, has by the time you get back to the movie, you forgot...

    Sport's Grid

    Portland's KOIN-6 just changed from Bounce on 6.3 to the Sports Grid. With the OTA tuner in the 211k, they even have the correct guide for the new diginet. I was quite surprised. Now if some of the other channels like KGW-8 NBC, KOPB 10 PBS, KRCW 32 CW, and Antenna TV 32.2 would get the correct...
