    Help With Moving/Satmaps

    Yeah, you're exactly right in your assumptions. Sorry guys, my bad for the lack of clarity (and thanks for the help, even though I probably couldn't have been more unclear in asking for it). One more question... If I need a second dish plus a fancier switch, I'm assuming I would pay for those...

    Help With Moving/Satmaps

    I'm trying to "move" for locals. Will the tech work with me?

    Help With Moving/Satmaps

    Nope, locals, not RSNs. I'm mainly focused on NFL games. I could care less about my locals where I'll be living, but I'm sure the Dish tech won't share my feelings.

    Help With Moving/Satmaps

    Thanks for the info, and I wasn't clear on the second part. I know I can't mix DMAs, but I was concerned that if my install tech was pointing the satellite to receive locals at 110, I wouldn't be able to receive signal from 61.5 (which is what I want to use). Cause for concern?

    Help With Moving/Satmaps

    I'm planning to move this fall (for real), and I want to make sure I can still access sports programming that's important to me (via "moving"). I found a DMA that will carry my teams, but the city where I'm moving is just barely outside the blue ring on SatMaps. Will I actually be able to...

    922 Streaming

    I was given three free months of BBMP which are up in January. I'm a current Netflix sub, and was hoping to access all the features of BBMP (including streaming to my 922 box) before the trial ended so I could give it a fair shot. Store trade-in is worthless to me, as I don't live anywhere...

    Streaming with Blockbuster Thread

    I've got a 922, and am currently a Netflix subscriber. Liked the idea initially of switching, especially with Netflix's price increase, but this reeks of mismanagement on Dish's part. How do you not have the capability to stream to all of your boxes on the day of launch if you're Dish? Add to...

    ESPN 3D and Dish Network.

    I really think ESPN 3D will go belly-up before Dish ever adds it (and I don't think that's too far in the future from happening). Just a guess, though.

    Strange remote viewing on my 922

    Finally figured out how to find the password on the 922, and SlingPlayer Mobile works fine for me. Dish's app works great as long as I'm actually in front of my DVR to reset the internet connection every time, which pretty much makes it worthless. Ditto for Dish Remote Access. Can someone...

    Strange remote viewing on my 922

    I'm having a similar problem with my 922. My Android Sling player mobile worked fine, even when Dish's player says my DVR isn't connected to the internet (although I can get it to work at home when I do a broadband reset...not very helpful when I try to use the player on the road). My player...

    Program Guide only 36 Hours

    My chat transcript: Welcome to DISH Network Chat. Romana (ID: X37): Hello. Romana (ID: X37): Thank you for choosing DISH Network, how can I help you today? Me: Just wanted to check something. My 922 DVR is only showing 36 hours of future guide listings, as opposed to the 8 or 9 days I...

    Program Guide only 36 Hours

    Woke up this morning to find that my program guide only goes out 36 hours (I'm using a 922). Haven't made any changes, and I did both a reboot and a check switch. Any thoughts? I didn't know if the addition of the Starz channels might cause this. Oh, and I did a chat with a tech agent, who...

    Can you pay for a premium channel annually?

    What's the discount for annual payment of the whole bill?

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I actually just saw an ad in Kansas City by Dish saying KC's local Fox affiliate (WDAF) might be pulled off the air. I know for a fact WDAF is not an O&O (they were previously, but were sold to a company called Local TV).
