Thanks, I didn't know this. I don't think I have this many recordings, but I'm going to check.

I have recorded several programs. Normally it works fine. When I search the DVR listing (A-Z), sometimes some programs won't be listed. It looks like they weren't recorded. If I do a search for a missing program, it not only shows when the program will be listed again, but it shows that it's...

We're moving to a new house soon and our internet connection will be with a Verizon LTE wireless router. I signed up for 20G/month, I may increase it to 30G. Pretty limited compared to the cable connection we have now. I'm having the internet turned on next week and I'll have the DISH turned...

The technician was a sharp guy, he solved the problem quickly. THEN, he brought in a box of things to potentially sell me, hdmi cables, power strips, Sling adapter, other stuff. He seemed kind of embarrassed and pointed out he was required to do this. I didn't buy anything. The whole...

Greetings. I am new to this forum. For several years I've had a Dish 510 receiver (that I own) and service at my house. The dish is a Dish 500 model with old dual-LNB. For the past four+ years I've lived mostly in a different town with my wife and stepson though I spend some time each...
