    Lost our tv in Denver

    There is bad weather around the Cheyenne uplink center. Don't know if that may be the issue. Definitely something going on with 129 here. Signal has never been great here in central IN.

    Lost our tv in Denver

    I've been having intermittent issues with 129 dropping out for the last month or so. It did it again just a few minutes ago. Got the complete signal loss message and hopper switched to SD channels. Sky is hazy with scattered clouds, so I don't believe that's an issue. Is Dish having uplink or...

    Epix back on Dish Movie Pack???

    I got an email yesterday telling me Epix had been added to the Dish movie pack. I am still in the 3mo. free preview since I signed up in March. It wasn't showing in the "all subscribed" guide, so I chatted with a rep. and they claimed they knew nothing about it but I could add it for $7/mo. All...

    Primetime Anytime not working and no HD locals

    Depends which DMA you are located in. There are a few where all HD locals are not available (Lafayette, IN) for example. That's where I am and PTAT does not work here either. At least not last April when I dumped Dish for local TELCO now sending IPTV over 2 pair bonded copper DSL. Now get...

    HWS 204 Bugs

    I have found that when I am in a favorites list on the main guide, the mini-guide never works on HWS or SJ. When in the "all subscribed" list the mini-guide works on both every time so far.

    HWS 204 Bugs

    No mini guide for me on either HWS or SJ. Just black box on both.

    New line under programming online account

    Any more increases from Dish and I'm done. My local telco (TDS) is now offering an IPTV product delivered over DSL. Early adopters in the neighborhood are giving good reviews and they are offering an attractive bundle with internet service for $40/mo less than I am paying now for Dish and...

    Carbon UI Issues Thread

    Mine has never worked on the SJ or HWS and still doesn't on U204.

    Reverted back

    Well, I tried forcing the update on the HWS and it worked! It is now back on CUI with the updated build U204. It must have grabbed the old version while they were loading the new CUI version to the data stream. Ah yes the joys of beta testing....;)

    Reverted back

    My HWS reverted to S529 last night. SJ still on CUI U354. Can only watch TV now on SJ. I wonder what went wrong? CUI was working pretty well on both.

    HOPPER 3 UPGRADES

    That's kind of what I thought. Not a surprise to me but you never know till you ask. Not a big deal anyhow since I am happy with the HWS & SJ. Since my fees are grandfathered and there is little 4k content at the moment I am happy to stay put for now.

    HOPPER 3 UPGRADES

    No upgrade for me. I went through DIRT and best they could do was $75 for H3 and $50 for 4k Joey. I agreed to protection plan to avoid $95 tech fee and $50 for the 4k Joey and they wouldn't budge. Started out at $150, $50, $95. I started with Dish in 1998 and stayed till 2011 when I could no...

    H3 Hard Drive Error

    I think I'd unplug it! Could burst into flames.
