    Dish contract ends 28Apr2024 - any reason to renew?

    I believe if you were to read the post, he was saying $8/month.

    Umm do you have any links from experts saying this? ;)

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I believe Dish was one of the first to offer a streaming service - SLING.

    Seek Recordings

    I have had the same problem with basketball games. The first airing on ESPN or ESPN2 is skipped. The second showing on ESPNU is scheduled for recording. I got caught once. Since then I check the scheduled recordings and restore the original airing. And I do not have all 16 tuners in use.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    The 4K Joey is pretty worthless for Dish 4K. I found out the hard way after shelling out extra money to have my Joey replaced with a 4K Joey. I also ran in circles with Tech Support who insisted it would work. Finally gave up and then found posts here detailing the fact that I wasted my money.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Tried the reboot. However I get my locals OTA which I guess means no 4K Superbowl.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    I'm not seeing 146 nor 540-06. I do see 540-01 through 540-03. I have a 4K tv connection to the Hopper 3. Any ideas?

    Copying/rearranging EHDs

    Thanks for the reply. I had never copied anything except whole disks. This gives me a lot of new info. Thanks for sharing it.

    Copying/rearranging EHDs

    Thanks Bobby - I have read the messages twice. There seems to be enough there to confuse me as to what was being accomplished. I honestly don't generate messages just to see my name. Thanks - Larry

    Lot of messages here. What actually worked - i.e. what did you copy?

    Copying/rearranging EHDs

    To copy one drive to another, I have used the following procedure. After you get the first one copied (preferably the largest one), you will need to copy the files from another EHD to the Hopper, then copy those files to the EHD. I don't know of another way. Make sure you read the complete...

    OTA channel guide not populating.

    The problem in Birmingham is now fixed thanks to Josh. I hope everyone realizes just how valuable he is to us. He took the initiative and got the problem fixed. We all appreciate Josh!

    OTA channel guide not populating.

    Maybe two years and 7 months ;) but point well taken. Similar problem in Birmingham.

    OTA channel guide not populating.

    I cannot agree with you about Dish's responsibility. One of the first things you are asked when you call to negotiate your bill is if you can receive local channels OTA. Why would they attempt to get you to change your package if they didn't bear some of the responsibility. As has been stated...

    Satellite 129 Issues

    You don't get around here much do you? This has been discussed in great detail. Your post is full of fallacies. Do a little research in THIS forum and you will get the correct information.

    ME TV

    Doesn't make a lot of sense. One hand of Dish (Sling Airtv) can provide OTA data but the other hand of Dish (Satellite) cannot.

    ME TV

    No argument from me

    ME TV

    Wow - In my area (Birmingham, AL) psip seems to be entirely correct. I don't check all 67 channels but the ones I watch on the Airtv box are correct. I would rather use the Hopper but of course only the top 4, Mytv, METV and one independent have guide info. I can't even get CW guide data...

    More guide issues

    If you are in any way able to get Dish to address their part of the problem, please let us know how you did it. My Dish OTA guide shows three CBS stations of which two are not CBS. My CW station shows CBS. My Heartland station shows CBS. Also there are two ABC stations of which only one is...

    Leaving Dish

    The answer is most of the time. After the ATSC 3.0 shuffle in Birmingham, the OTA program guide for channel 21 CW was lost. Channel 21 is the ATSC 3.0 host. The channel 21 OTA guide was available before the shuffle and it is available on locals from Dish. I have reported this problem to Dish...

    Dish Distress

    I have found that to be the normal situation. I know that whenever I decided to make a change to the equipment, I sought out the opinions here before I ever talked to Dish.

    Dish Network equipment upgrade message

    That is only true if you don't have OTA only for locals. OTA gets only two channels and conflicts, depending on how the tuners are set (early, late) and the number of programs that are needed to record. My wife had to give up recording Young Sheldon because two other programs were of a higher...

    DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

    Can't agree with that statement. I can instantaneously skip ahead a multiple of 30 seconds or skip back. I have tried streaming services and that just doesn't happen. There is a time delay ranging from relatively short to significant. Also, with an external drive I can save lots of programs...
