On yesterday's uplink, all the Christmas Dish Scapes were removed along with the December free previews. Something I found interesting is Dish has 4 channels up called "HD Migration Channel." Not sure what these 4 channels are going to be used for - if these are going to be future slates when...

This is where the math would be intersting to see.

Scott - I assume you will still own satelliteguys.us and it will redirect to the new domain?

Your last sentence is the key. Here in Chicago we have ATSC 3.0 for CBS, NBC, FOX, WGN, and a spanish channel. When watching the NFL, especially on FOX, the picture is far superior to the ATSC 1.0 channel because of the format - even if it is being upconverted to 1080p. But that DRM is an...

Does that really work? (I haven't made the jump to the Wally yet - I still have my VIP211k but am thinking of making the switch)

Thanks for confirming - that is what I thought. I would have thought that if Dish had NBC Sports Network there would be an announcement on it. That would be a pretty big gain if Dish had NBC Sports Network

I know that NBC/Comcast relaunched NBC Sports Network earlier this year to show a lot of the Peacock exclusive games for those who don't have Peacock, and YouTubeTV and Comcast have it. I noticed today that under the BonusView that NBCSN is now listed. Does Dish now have this channel as a...

Well...at 89 days, I still can access my oldest recordings on the VIP211k. This is the right at the longest I have been able to have them before the self-delete/stop working since this started about 14 months ago. Oldest recording is from 9/28/2025.

This is a random thought, but for the Signal Protector, where when bad weather comes through and it goes to the streaming channels. Could a Wally be disconnected from the satellite dish so it never finds the signal, and it works as a streaming only box for the channels that is covered as part...

Correct - my first receiver was the VIP222k and there was no option to do the EHD on that receiver.

Yeah...with Sling, I believe the DVR lasts for 9 months and then there is a warning when there is 30 days left. I think it is similar with YouTube TV that you can only watch recordings for 9 months. In my mind, if there is some licensing agreement that Dish has with providers that only allow...

As of right now, I can watch recordings over 60 days old on my VIP 211k with the external hard drive. In my previous posts in other threads, I detailed the exact days that they would stop recording, and one group was right at 60 days, but have all stopped working within 90 days. 60 days vs 90...

If I could like this multiple times I would!!! Absolutely agree 100%!!!!

This is what I wish it was for all the out of market packages - that there would be an add-on where you can get all local teams.

Now we see why the cutbacks... "Main Street Sports Group, owner of the FanDuel Sports Network RSNs, will "wind down and dissolve its business" at the end of the NBA and NHL seasons unless it is able to complete a sale to DAZN"...
