    Rumor? Eastern arc is being retired? (Yes its just a rumor for now.)

    I can tell you what I did when I cancelled DISH after 25 years at the beginning of 2022. I had my hopper and joeys still hooked up and my external hard drive still plugged in and my ota antenna and my usb tuner still plugged in. My satellite channels disappeared of course in the guide except...

    Dish Change Question

    I remember when you could use a switch (DP 21 ) and two dishpro lnbs and use to large 30" dishes for 110 and 119 and get a great signal for you service in the high numbers.

    Roof Repair - Reinstall Dish

    The Roofers will just leave it on the ground and you will still need a DISH tech to come back and reinstall it where it goes. I think they will reinstall it since you can get once a year a free move if you have DISH protect, but you could call and ask. My mom and dad had their ota antenna...

    Dish Survey on New Guide

    Sling TV/Air TV does a pretty good job of sub channel guide for almost all my locals. There is like 6 recent sub channels that don't have it. My Tablo does a good job too and I do get guide information for almost all of them.
