    Funding a Dish 5G Network: Speculation About a Major Disruptive Partner

    Looked at buying into a new subdivision and found what is happening here in SWFL with new subdivisions that there there is no "cable" TV. They run 1Gig fiber to the house (no caps) and the cost of internet is included with the HOA fees. As an owner you can use any streaming service provider and...

    WINK-TV, channel 11, the Fort Myers, FL CBS affiliate has been removed from DISH

    Yes, they brought it back supposedly because of the pandemic. Like most people, guess they have run out of patients waiting for it to be over and pulled it again. :)

    Nexstar dispute looming...

    The station is owned by the McBride family and their Fort Myers Broadcasting Company, making it one of a handful of TV stations today to have locally-based ownership. This thread is about Nexstar right?

    Poll: Fire Stick or Roku?

    Q: Can it play 4K Netflix? A:By now, MECOOL TV boxes don’t support 4K from Netflix, but support on other apps, for example, YouTube 4K. The mobile version of Netflix can be installed via U disk, but the resolution is only SD Also says nothing about what audipo formats it supports.

    Questions about purchasing a Hopper 3

    Or Dish will just clam that they own your owner receiver. Just went through that when I cancelled Dish. Luckily I still had the receipt and had to get the president's office involved to get it straightened out.

    HBO Max - WarnerMedia Announces Upcoming Streaming Service

    So the movie theaters and actor / agents are upset. Doesn't matter that for decades viewers wanted home access to first run movies when they were released and not have to wait months to see them. Times are a-changin', theaters are now going to have to work to earn customers, not being able to...

    HBO Max - WarnerMedia Announces Upcoming Streaming Service

    Clearly? By who's opinion? Yours? Every HBO subscriber had access to HBOMax, every Fire stick, AppleTV and Google TV owner had access. Roku is the only one that fits not have it. IMHO Roku will lose users because of it. Will they settle? Of course at some point but we will never know who gave in...

    AirTV Dual Tuner Adapter - UPDATED Review

    If you are getting a 100% signal reading on channels it could be the signal is too strong. This is not an uncommon issue even before everything going digital. The Dish rtuner may be more sensitive to strong signals.

    Nexstar dispute looming...

    The last station that was blanked out was 26-01 which was a Scripts station. It has back for a number of months. We have guide data for all of the Big 4 networks. So, it appears that we can't just go by that data list.

    Dish Liability?

    Same as if you have a skylight installed in your roof and years later it leaks. Or trim/ weather stipping around your windows or doors. Or your sink leaks and damages your floor.

    Dish Liability?

    IMHO, contact your homeowners insurance company and have them cover it. I doubt Dish will cover it. Your only chance may be if you can provide proof that the installer insisted it be installed that way and you can prove that the install was defective.

    Netflix Prices Increase

    At $2 a month (actually $2.15 with tax) it's worth it to me for the couple of programs I'd like to watch. I wouldn't pay any more for them.

    Do Not Use Chromecast with Google TV for Sling TV

    The problem is the OTA channels. For the most part the steaming channels work fine. The other problem is the remote will not control my Vizio TV or my Onkyo AVR. There are only 2 codes to try for each device and neither work.

    Do Not Use Chromecast with Google TV for Sling TV

    I am not using on any other device at the same time. Other users on the Sling TV reddit forum are having the same problem. I messaged them and here is the response I got. Chromecast is not one of the supported devices for Air TV, if you look at that link I sent it will show the devices that...

    Do Not Use Chromecast with Google TV for Sling TV

    I purchased a Chromecast with Google TV to use with my Sling TV subscription. Was hoping for a better UI then the one on the FireStick/Cube. Generally the steamed channels work OK but the OTA channels (using AirTV Anywhere) have major buffering problems. There are no buffering problems using the...
