    Official - I have a Hopper 3 Thread!

    Ordered through DIRT, was painless and done in only 2 private messages. Was the first Hopper 3 install for the installer, he arrived saying he'd been warned by coworkers that these take a long time to get fully installed and we'd be waiting around for the receivers for a few hours. (which...

    DISH 2016 CES Press Event

    I hope this turns out to be true. Watching the Live stream they said is it would be a zero cost upgrade for qualified new accounts. The word "new" which Scott didn't type makes me wonder if existing customers can upgrade for free. Past history would make me think that Dish will not let...

    Hopper Thoughts - I'm Looking For a Reason To Leap or Stay

    Yes. The Joey can see the programs on the external Hard disk drive of the Hopper it is linked too.

    Best deals on lightning cables?

    I have ordered 6 generic ones from DX.com. They have worked flawlessly for both charging and synching. I've used this site for years to get really inexpensive iPhone cases/cables/screen protectors. The shipping is painfully slow... it is free shipping from Hong Kong/China. But prices are...

    HD Channel List: Dish Network vs DirectTV

    I fixed a few errors. Some of the categories were not counted correctly. A couple channels for Dish and for Direct were not being counted in the totals.

    Post Your Bill

    My Bill went down by 2 cents, but only because of $11 in loyalty credits. Come August it will go up $10.98. It is tempting to be annoyed, but I still would not find a better deal anywhere for HD service and 2 great HD DVR's...

    Scott, is SG gave full monopoly for posting Dish SI tables to one person ?

    I think Scott partially covered this topic in this post in the pub members forum in case you missed it while you were gone: http://www.satelliteguys.us/1873280-post34.html

    Should I upgrade my Iphone 3g to 3GS?

    I thought about upgrading since I am still on the iPhone 2G. I could get the 32GB one for $299. But, the switch to the 3G data plan would raise my monthly bill by $15. So, the switch would cost me $299+$180+taxes for the first year. I was planning on upgrading, but for now I'll hold onto the...

    ANTI VIRUS SOFTWARE

    I used to be an AVG fan, but the newer versions are getting really bad. I also used to hate Norton Anti-virus, but the 2009 version is really good. I recently switched away from AVG to Norton Internet Security (Free after rebate from Fry's). I could not be happier with the Norton Product, it...

    HD Channel List: Dish Network vs DirectTV

    Hi, while you're updating it, the formula's and counts on the "Regular channels" are wrong. The formulas in cells B51,C51, F45 and G45 contain the wrong cell range and therefore the wrong counts are listed... When the Formulas are updated to ranges of B5:b50 and C5:C50 the correct Dish...

    Where's the best fast-food place to get dessert?

    The KFC's in my area serve those same apple pies now. Most locations don't have them on the menu at all, but some will serve them if ordered. The one by my house sells them 2/1.00. They don't have them on their menu. They make you wait 5 minutes for them to fry them up fresh. They are the...

    What features from Tivo would you like added to your E* box?

    I'd like multiple boxes to cooperate better. 1) I want to be able to watch shows from any DVR in the house on any other over the house network. (Homeplug should work for this.) 2) When a timer conflict occurs, I want the DVR to ask another DVR in the house to record the about-to-be-skipped...

    Cinemax for 1 year for .01 w/ autopay/paperless billing

    I signed up on 12/18 for this. I've received 2 bills since. Neither bill has it listed at all in the detailed charges section. My bill (including the one for February) has not changed by even a penny. I am on DVR advantage so I did not expect any price increase. I have yet to be charged the...

    Went to Fry's today for the first time

    Fry's wasn't so bad on my wallet since it was about 25 miles away. This year they built a huge new one about 2 miles from my house. With them running sales ads 5 days a week, I find myself there WAY too often...

    Cinemax for 1 year for .01 w/ autopay/paperless billing

    I have DVR advantage+HD. I was already on both auto-pay and paperless billing. I called the 800-333-dish number. The CSR was aware of the program and when looking up my account said since I had both I would get it for .01 per year for 2 years. The entire call was under 2 minutes... I'm happy.

    rirwin1983 - scam continue

    Go ahead. I don't want to create an account over there. I was just having fun reading some of his past stuff... Also notice... For someone who hates satellite, his current avatar at dBStalk is the DirecTV logo... I guess there is always the possibility that "Gahanna, OH" is a lot bigger...
