    OTA blocked (Media General Station)

    For locals the only have EPG data for unique channels. So they are in essence coupled. No real reason to do this besides the fact they would have to define more channel SIDS and then have double the EEPG data since locals are more than 50% of the guide data in the system. They could add them...

    Spot beams in Puerto Rico with NYC account

    You will not get HD channels. Had the same issues in Alaska. Even called them up , told them I had and RV with custom bigger dish and had signal. They had no idea what I wanted, I don't even think they could add the channels if they wanted to. I did end up "moving" to Anchorage, and for...

    Media General Stations Removed from DISH, Agreement Reached

    That is strange. Can you check what the guide data says for 5-9 days ahead? I am wondering if certain epg databases the 5 vs 9 day have different content OR if some guide data is sent via internet?

    Media General Stations Removed from DISH, Agreement Reached

    There are channel that are not even on DISH that have OTA guide data, so I don't think they need an agreement. isn't the ideal solution for dish to have as many OTA viewers as possible, keeps costs down in many ways too, that way they disputes don't really matter as much... and if during a...

    Media General Stations Removed from DISH, Agreement Reached

    I am wondering if viewers of a taken down channel via OTA tuner on a dish receiver get programming guide data or is it the same as the satellite channel with "important channel information" programs? I don't think dish distinguishes between the two versions of the channel.

    Dish NW Reception in Canada and Alaska?

    Not to get even more of topic, but does Fairbanks or Juneau even do HD? I thought they only did upconverted SD, due to being one extra hour behind and receiving the network feed. I do believe the stations in anchorage like KTUU can do HD.

    DishNetwork Prepaid System.

    I found this exact deal at a local radio shack for 65$. Is it worth buying? Could I resell it? Is the receiver worth anything? I thought it was a pretty good deal.
