Sorry if this was posted but I didn’t see anything recently. Just noticed today the Sirius stations are gone from dish network. I listen to them in my shop so I’m kinda ticked. Anyone know the deal?

I’ve been listening to The Loft all day and evening without any problems. Maybe your receiver?
 
Yeah sirius still on EPG and I'm listening to the music now. Something must be up with the OP's set-top box. Maybe he needs to contact dish and have his equipment hit with authorization signal again. sometimes in some situations that's all it takes.

Did you switch to Flex Pack by any chance? Not included, but can be added on.

Interesting....no changes to programming or receivers for 2 years. Have the Hopper 3 and AT200 pack.

Ok I chatted with dish support. The Sirius channels are there under channel 99 and up. I always went to channel 6000 and up to find them. This worked fine on the Hopper 3 as off last week. So apparently on the Hopper 3 the channel guide was changed this last week for Sirius. I didnt see them earlier there, but I never go to that part of the guide much. My bad... false alarm!

My understanding is that on Hopper they have always been on 99. I switched to the Hopper 1 back in 2012, and it's been on 99 ever since. That's strange that you would get it on the 6000s on a Hopper.
 
I honestly wish I could get rid of them in my package and save some money. I already have SiriusXM radios in both my home and car, as well as online access.

That well could have always been on 99 and up. I just used to listen to them up in the 6000s clear back to my 625 days. Out of habit I just kept going there until a few days ago they were no longer there. I’ve had this hopper 3 for about 2.5 years now and was doing it that way.

Just think "Agent 99". (if your are old enough to remember Get Smart).

He Missed it by THAT much!

Shown below, waiting on hold for Dish support to inquire about their missing Sirius channels:

Can Dish Anywhere be used on a smart TV
