With a couple of exceptions, I always thought that first year for Dish Scape was the best, and especially the Halloween scape.

I think logically, 75% can only mean one of two things. It might mean coverage for 75% for all phone users, or it might mean 75% of the landmass of the United States. I'm thinking the former would be the one it means because 5g coverage of 75% of the United States land mass seems kind of...

True, but the problem as I see it is that Frndly TV will cost $9.99 a month and almost all of the other channels offered are already available on Dish. So, one is essentially paying $10 a month just for ME TV. But, if you gotta have it.....

Replacing a highly popular channel with one that few will watch. But it's probably really cheap to add.

A while ago I read that Direct stated they will no longer be launching any new satellites. But what happens when their satellites become non functional? I once thought maybe they plan to lease transponder space from others, but that wouldn't be practical due to different satellite locations...

I don't know what the attraction is with satellite internet. Years ago I had something called WildBlue satellite internet, and it was pretty crappy and expensive (for the time) but it was the only internet available. Since then I've progressed to DSL and finally fiber. That said, when...

I se it as well. It was missing this AM.

This morning I noticed one of the better streaming channels (Nostalgia) went missing.

If not, there's always 373.

It's really easy to tell an H2 from an H3. When you're recording something, if you see a little red light, it's an H2. Also, just look at the number of tuners. The H2 only has 3 tuners, while theH3 has 16.

I was going to make a joke about when H371 will be issued, but it came out before I could type this post. I suppose now we can all take bets on when H372 shows up.

How are the HBO streaming and the regular HBO channels different owners, different pipelines/rules, etc.?

I'm not entirely sure about that because for example: The two HBO streaming channels don't permit recording but those same movies may be recorded when shown on their regular channels. I suppose it's either a technical issue or a policy issue.

Looking at the schedules for some of the channels showed they have some classic programming that doesn't require censorship. The only problem being one needs to watch this programming in real time due to the inability to record anything that's streaming. Is there a technical reason why Dish...

I watched a movie (Phantasm III) on "Horror by alter" just long enough to realize this channel censors its content.
