Weather shouldn't be an issue tonight. Is anyone else here having this problem, or is it just me?

Same for Hawaii, all others showing but no ESPNews

The regular Ion is only in SD for me. KPXO is (or would be if it worked) in HD

Precisely my point a few posts above yours. Unless there is more to this than is being let on, I would be truly surprised if DISH and/or its management isn't slapped with a shareholders claim within the next 30 days, especially if DISH decides to drop WrestleMania (which unlike the PPV this...

I hope there is some financial justification for why Dish would throw away "free" PPV profits. I can almost understand a dispute with a network since you are trying to keep your subscriber costs to a minimum, but a PPV doesn't have those same costs. Yes, Dish will make less on PPV buys because...

Apparently, it is/was not on the known issues list. Thanks for the help and to everyone else out here who checked for me. Glad to know it's not just me. Hopefully, it will get fixed in the near future.

Thanks for checking...glad I'm not the only one. It really feels like this is an issue that is on the signal end and not the user's end. Signal strength on 119 spotbeam 2 is 61. I am not having any issues with any other channels.

Yes to both questions. I can even record it on my DVR, pause, fast forward. When I first tuned to the channel, I actually thought there was just a temporary outage from the network's side of things. However, it has never showed any content since the HD channel was added to my line-up...

Is anyone receiving KPXO Channel 66 in Hawaii or is the channel being blacked out because we receive ION on 216 & 217? The channel shows in my guide (both HD and SD) and appears to acquire the signal and operate normally (no error messages), however all that appears is a black screen. Would...

So when does Dish start handing out free USB OTA adapters to all of their Hopper customers?

I just received this same error for the 1st time today since getting my hopper in January. It is still checking after 25+ minutes!

Ditto for HI

Just to be clear, this solution solves the issue of channels appeaing in the guide that we do not actually receive correct? Or do this address the blackout/ESPN2 issue others are complaining about? This thread has splintered a bit, so I'm not sure which issue you are addressing.

Have these problems been resolved yet. Just ordered a Hopper for install in January in Hawaii and am now having 2nd thoughts...

I believe I am ready to upgrade my beloved 722 to a 1H/1J set-up...gulp... Pls PM when available. If it matters, I am in Hawaii.
