    Dish Retention No Longer Offering A Discount

    I don't see anything like that. Does that mean my contract has expired? I know I've been with them for at least 20 years. Don't believe I'm getting any discount with them now. ($98 for Americas top 200)

    Local Channels Freezing

    I'm afraid I only have one other TV and it's on an antenna. No box.

    Local Channels Freezing

    Not the TV. I use a soundbar connected directly to my Hopper. TV speakers are not used except rare occasion of bypassing Dish and streaming direct through TV.

    It says it's all turned off.

    Local Channels Freezing

    I have had a similar problem with my (OTA) local FOX station over the last month or so. It would just freeze up until I switched channels. Doesn't happen often. Now a new problem has me wondering if perhaps my LNB is bad. My local PBS station over the last couple of days is narrating cartoons...

    HBO Max

    I discovered I had the HBO Max app on my Sony TV so everythings good even though I had to listen to it with the TV speakers and not my sound bar because of the way I have it hooked up. I do wish they would create an app for Dish just to make it easier.

    HBO Max

    Do you know if a Firestick would work?

    HBO Max

    So is that the only way to watch it on our TV? No Dish app? I know I can stream it through my computer but sure would like to see it on a big screen.

    Well its 2 months

    This is why this forum is the best. Dish's own directions are pretty vague or at least hard to find. Easier to come here and ask knowledgeable folks.

    RSN's Continue to Fall - Dish drops AT&T Sportsnets

    Nothing new here. We haven't been able to get local sports through our ATTSW over Dish for years.

    EHD recommendations/advice

    It's an SSD. Think I would be better off with an HDD?

    EHD recommendations/advice

    Thanks. Just ordered one. Had an old Asus laptop sitting around. Removed the Crucial 250GB HD and will try this EHD setup. Always thought EHD had to have it's own power source.

    Guide only showing local channels

    Finally was able to get a Dish tech to reset my guide. Did not know if there was a way I could do it. Apparently not. Working now although HBO shows haven't completely shown up for later tonight. Hopefully will reset completely by tomorrow.

    Guide only showing local channels

    And VOD but none of my America's Top 200 or HBO that I recently subscribed to. Is there a way to force a new guide to download?
