Bought a new house and have some questions on what's typical for dish mover installs these days. I'm going from a place where I self installed the dish exactly where I wanted to (15 years ago when that was typical). The new house has a Dish on the roof just below the peak of the roof line...

Menus are quicker. Skip ahead and back are slightly faster than the regular Joey too. Not as good as watching off the Hopper itself, but that's to be expected.

Unless Dish appeals in court we'll never know. Dish doesn't seem to be talking so everything is speculation.

It's not OSHA's job to investigate that. Their job is to determine if an employee was retaliated against for making a whistleblower report. Employees are required to follow due diligence and report violations (real, potential, or otherwise) under SOX. The company is barred from retaliation...

I don't have a ROKU, but thanks for the heads up. I checked the HBO GO page and it says Comcast currently works with: Apple (iPhone, iPad, AppleTV) Android Tablets Android Phones Chrome Cast Kindle Fire Samsung SmartTVs XBox 360 Dish Network Supports the above plus: Roku PS3

I take it OTA Joeys can't see the OTA adapter? Would they be able to watch an OTA in process of being recorded on the Hopper?

I'm having Comcast Internet installed. Only Internet, no TV or Phone. When I was working out the deal wight he CSR they offered unpublished package of HBO-GO + Streampix for +$5/mo @12 months to the internet only package. They were also comping installation when you get the HBO package vs $49...

Greetings. I have an installation scheduled for next week to UPG to Hopper + 2 Joeys. Of course two days after I booked it SJ comes out. Is it possible to have one of the Joeys upgraded to a Super?

Thanks for the info Symbol! Old cable was likely secured when the drywall was put in. I doubt he'd be able to pull with old the cable. But the attic has a good access if he needs new runs from the Dish. I'll make sure to clear stuff in advance in case he needs to go up there.

My system has changed a lot over time. Highlights include the Dish 5000 with the ATSC output HD Adapter, a slew of 721s that kept having HD problems, the 921 with the firewire port that never was activated, and these days I'm running the VIP722. There's even an unused dish still pointed at 61...

Done. Very happy with the result. I'd gotten almost all the way through my DirecTV order as the Costco promo was a very compelling reason to switch. I talked through the numbers and they made good.

DIRT Retention Does DIRT do retention or do I have to call?

My speculation is it's a combination of bitrate and/or sound formats. Satellite content is notoriously low bitrate and is heavily optimized at the head end.

The issue is the current GoGo systems are using conventional 3G internet connections. They are a victim of their own success. Way too many travelers use GoGo per flight now. They are currently upgrading to 4G, and that will help quite a bit. The international system will use leased...

Just got the call. I hadn't used it in while since I switched to taking my iPad with me and I wasn't going to pay money for the App. I started using slingbox with dish YEARS ago. They had a site that eventually became Dish Online that allowed to DVR management and viewing of programing. If I...
