    Wind effect

    The tech just left. He installed two support bars on the dish. My highest signal strength was 60 so he made several adjustments and installed a new LMB. With that bad of signal strength I expect the problem will be greatly improved. Very knowledgeable and personable tech. Very satisfied.

    Tech coming out Thursday AM. Dish mounted on edge of roof. Ran test and it showed two errors.

    State of things with Dish?

    Maybe you better check that. Looks to be very strong. I just wondered if the cost of a lawsuit will hinder progress. I certainly hope not but things change so fast anymore. It wasn't that long ago there was no Netflix, or Amazon or, or 4K, or the ability to stream at all. Take the new Star Trek...

    Wind effect

    No trees at all. Guess I'll just have to live with it. It beats snow.

    Wind effect

    I physically checked the dish and connections. Everything seemed rock solid. It's windy and raining right now and I am watching a locked up picture and a lost signal message. It's our rainy season here in Arizona now.

    State of things with Dish?

    There was a thread here earlier regarding Dish's lawsuit against streamers using KODI for pirated movies and TV shows. Will this type of thing pose a serious threat to Dish going forward?

    Wind effect

    I've been having quite a bit of wind the past week. Several times my signal has been lost. This has made half a dozen or more recordings unwatchable. I'm talking 20-25 mph winds. The dish itself seems to be very secure as are all connections. Just wondering if this is normal.

    Directv 4K channels

    Has "D" indicated what future programming is projected for channel 104? For instance, for the past 2 months they have shown episodes 1 and 7 of season 7 of River Monsters. Approximately 20 times each of just those two episodes.

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    Reasonable price is the key. Reasonable to who? How is it that a movie still in the theater can be be streamed in 1080p quality to your android device, for free? The technology is way beyond me but how is this material obtained in the first place? Why can so many people get it? Why would they...

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    I've been around a long time and well remember the fiasco of Napster And this seems eerily similar. When you start looking at copyright laws in the United States you really open a convoluted can of worms. I just read an article written by a retired Copyright lawyer. He places the majority of...

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    It seems strange then that you can receive all programming for free from ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS, CW as well as all other local channels over an antenna. Once upon a time these above networks made their profits from advertisers but now they charge carriers like Dish, Directv, cable companies etc...

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    I would love to know the legalities involved here. Is it illegal to receive any stream that originates outside the United States?

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    Like so many things, the product is legal but it can be used for illegal purposes. Don't compare Amazon selling products with KODI to matches. Matches are used for many reasons while the products using KODI are sold for one reason, to stream for free. From what I understand, all of the streaming...
