    DISH Price Increases

    Well the price increases pushed me over the edge. I signed up for Dish back in April of 1997. Old model 4000 that I bought outright and installed myself. Talked five other relatives into Dish. Used to dutifully watch the Charlie Chats, and cheered at the one or two new channels that we would...

    After nearly 19 years... is this the end of Dish for me?

    "Lifetime" may only be 3-4 years. The over the air tuners in all the equipment of this type will be replaced by ATSC 3.0 very very soon. Converter boxes will have to be utilized, just like the changeover from analog television to ATSC 1.0. They are jumping straight to MPEG 5 and bypassing MPEG...

    Sling TV

    I finally got fed up with all the "give some idiots some GoPro cameras and you have a reality program" type programming... so I put Dish on pause, and SlingTV is probably the way we are going to go, long term. Seeing that the president of Discovery Networks is getting over a hundred million a...

    Two free Dish PPView coupons

    The poop is about to hit the fan next month with a price increase, so they are throwing us a bone with the freebees. A subscriber since April 1997and the old model 4000 days (that I had to purchase outright and install myself), it looks like I will be dropping Dish (well kinda') and going with...

    So you want ala carte

    You hit the nail on the head completely. The handwriting is on the wall for the content relayers, such as Dish and Cable TV.

    MSNBC HD now in dish america package

    It is obvious what is happening. MSNBC has always had poor ratings, and recently they took a nosedive from "poor". They need to provide advertisers eyeballs and needed to take extreme measures to quickly try to increase viewership. What some look at a free "perk" is looked by others as another...

    Dish Police back in action.

    Customers do not work for Dish. If they say we have to drop what we are doing to jump through some hoops for them, screw-em. They work for me, I don't work for them... just got a ROKU 3 from my kids for Father's Day. Total 'a la carte. Smile. Dish customer since April 1997. But now I am adding...

    I saw this on Military Channel last night (HD)?

    We are all pretty stupid for putting up with the non-HD, "HD" programming.

    I saw this on Military Channel last night (HD)?

    It will be like Turner Classic Movies "HD". Just the name, not the actual broadcast. Interesting that TCM DOES broadcast in full HD overseas, but not in the United States.

    Are we going to be seeing a bigger dish in the future?

    Wall to wall, mindless reality programming in 4K? NO THANKS.

    Just Cancelled (2/11/2013)

    I highly recommend the Silicondust HD Home run. You can record two HD channels at one time, or four channels at the same time if you have two of the units (as I have). You will need a computer and a properly setup home network... Running Windows Media Center on Windows 7, the guide, recording...

    Sling Adapter Dish Receiver 722- Audio/Video Sync issues

    My low power computer that couldn't handle TVAnywhere in HD but did fine on the "better" setting has an Intel Atom dual core 2.13 Ghz cpu with an Intel on-board 3600 series video. I built this computer specifically for the HD recording and streaming of a SiliconDust HD DVR device. It works...
