Dish has some pretty hardcore stuff available, my WA dish tends to heat up causing warping. Dish receivers are capable of getting STD's also, so please be careful and protect your equipment. :)

Are these being sold via Dish's website?. I am looking for a 211k for the Flex Plack pre-paid service since the sub would not be permanent.

Ouch!. Is Missouri that hard up for tax money?. Hope they never consider a "coax cable" tax where you are charged a per foot in your dish installation. :)

That's the great thing with voip providers. With a little tweaking and configuring, telemarketers and scammers can be just about eliminated. I use voip.ms and since it's not a "Vonage" type service the configuration settings are a bit more advanced which gives flexibility. The good part is...

MLB Network carried that game and showed some of the tribute but it would have been nice to see KTLA's tribute. What a way for Vin to broadcast his last game , the Dodgers hitting a walk off home run in the 10th to win and clinch the NL West.

Noooo!, I was going to subscribe to Dish for that particular channel. Oh well. :)

So that maybe the key is to find a local installer to do a box swap if DirecTV insists on rolling a truck. Just tell them you a have a local installer on the way to do whatever and send them to your billing address which in theory still should have the dish installed. When I moved I told the...

This was before I moved but I when I asked them why do you need to send a truck to replace a remote that probably cost them $5.00 to make?. Dead silence for a couple of seconds, then we will mail it out. I don't think it's an official policy or a mis-informed CSR. Only had them come out once...

I wish WGN America would air the morning news as they did years ago. Supposedly certain national segments could not be shown outside the Chicago DMA, and also the morning anchors have a good sense of humor like the show. Now they don't show any of it and Cubs or Sox games. Dsh customers, it...

I was had in the back of my mind that they would be suspicious. I told them my service is at my other address and go to my billing address to get special packages that cannot be sent to my fake service addy. They seem to have bought it.

I had posted earlier that putting GPS receivers in the LNB is something that BOTH providers if they could do it in the next few years, likely no. It was a quick theory but it would cost them a ton of money and guess what, higher bills. If anything it's is the RSN's enforcing sports blackouts ...

It seems that WGN America is the now (sorry Spike) official "Cops" channel now. I swear it's on every day for hours now. I guess they have to fill programming with something.

Makes total sense, thanks nelson61. Always good to have a spare especially when a bird goes bad at only 22,300 miles away.

Rain fade is about to be history when DISH introduces the super duper 1000.1000000 dish that has so much signal gain it glows at night and will ELIMINATE that nasty rainfade!. Subs that have the old super dish can upgrade for only $5,000 and a 20 year contract is required. Everyone else will...

I think 2016 so far have seen the most disputes on record.

Do they have any plans to move the locals to the new E-18 with the 109 spotbeams and leave the conus stuff on the current one. Are there any conus locals left on the 61.5/72 birds?. Most likely a spotbeam for the area and they can clear off any more locals that are conus.

NewsBlues is reporting DISH is expected to drop them when the 29th hits. Don't know reliable that site is. Maybe Scott has the dirt on this.

Over $9 per sub in a couple of years is just plain crazy. What are they smoking over there in Bristol?.

WGN America has turned into the "Cops" station. Seems like it's always on so who can blame Charlie about not carrying WGN America. Between them and Spike, it's non-stop Cops.

Ouch!. That really sucks. When I know storms are a coming I try do disconnect all the satellite RF and any electrical connections. If you get a direct hit, no surge protector will prevent damage when it happens. All my electronics are on a UPS, but are still vulnerable to lightning.. If I am...

The NFL is like the Mob. Lot's on money and clout and can hold video providers hostage by charging insanely high prices per sub. Good for Dish to stand up to this crap. I do hope you guys get it back for the NFL season and it's more likely a deal will be done but ESPN, NFL Network, and Local...

"It’s dishturbing" Dish forced PIX11 off your lineup... so you can't watch the channel you're paying for. Now isn't that clever :)!. The next dispute with a programming provider, their anti-Dish website will use that crafty little line..

Your right on that!. The NFL is greedy almost mafia like organization. I don't recall what Directv paid the NFL for Sunday Ticket through 2022 but I am sure the NFL did quite well on that deal. Having all games for what the Sunday Ticket costs, means more money paid by DIrectv to the NFL for...

Would they take the current spot beamed locals on 61.5 and transfer them to the new bird when it's operational?.

Yep, the CBS O&O up here was at the time the only station in town that did not have any subchannels. Viewers thought they gave their entire bandwidth for their signal, but they actually held a few MB's back as null packets. Then CBS started Decades and all O&O's had to carry it. They gave it...
