Must move the 1000.2 and Single antennas due to a tree blocking some of the satellites. When I installed these antennas in 2005, I knew one day I would have signal problems as the tree has grown. So, I'm going to install two metal poles in the yard that has clear view to the western arc...

Thanks for that, every little bit helps! Assuming that it will do the 1 of 38, then the next step will have to wait until I can climb the roof. Would the circuitry of the LNB show a high-resistance loop or ground across the center conductor and shield of the cable? I'm looking for something...

There is a tester you can get that will inject a warble tone into a coax cable. You use a “toner” probe that picks up this injected signal that allows to find the other end of the coax. However, if you are limited to ground or floor level, that wouldn’t work. I never tried using an ohmmeter...

Hello Sam, thanks for the reply. This would be my method of choice; unfortunately, I am in a cast and confined to ground level activity for the next four weeks while recuperating from a broken heel. I was hoping that perhaps the dish would have some sort of signature resistance across the shield...

Hello Folks, The previous owners of our house apparently were Dish TV subscribers, and they left behind a VIP722k receiver (with smartcard still inserted) and the rooftop satellite dish. Our CATV RG6U cables are home-runned into a distribution cabinet in my office. The distribution equipment...

I'm not a Dish shareholder, but I am a member of an income-focused investing group on Seeking Alpha. Here's a couple of recent takes from that site on Dish stock that consider the work they're doing with rolling out 5G wireless. You may have to create a free account or sign in with...

Dow Jones is down 6% from its January high. Dish is down 45% from its January high.

Just curious if any of you out there are DISH stock holders as well? The stock has been pummeled into the ground over the last few months and I’m starting to lose faith in the company. Is DISH going to be able to turn it all around?

They can move the dish without going inside but can not do any work without someone over 18 present the entire time. If you can try calling in the middle of the night.

I didn't realize that Dish had a problem until three days ago when I went online to pay my bill. Isn't there requirements to notify customers when there is a data breach? I've seen nothing. This morning I had an email saying I have an appointment to change out my equipment. I never made an...

Update: I checked things at the ground block and done a blindscan with my meter and lo and behold cozi ku made the list ! The fitting on the lnb side looked questionable so I replaced that and peaked the dish and lnb skew and now it's back at 14.8 C/N The fitting didn't look all that bad but...

I wrote 3 million this year, 2 Million is what normally leaves, plus 1 Million out of the 2 Million that still paid for ST. Considering cheap people, did you not post that you pay $0 for your DirecTV and share it with your Landlord as part of your rent? It is math, loss in 2021 was 4.7 million...

Hi Arlo, I don't have a picture of a shorter lifter at my 10 foot mesh dish antenna. But hey, THINK, IF you remove the actuator arm from the dish, guess what would happen without a lifter???? The dish will FALL or NOSE DIVE!!! I'm still asking around for a short lifter that would be a bench...

Hi Folks, I Don't know which category to post my thread on??? Or I don't know where else to post it on this forum?? I'm looking for a shorter lifter that I could use for my C-band mesh big dish antenna to sit on the board on such lifter so that I could work on the actuator arm behind it...

while i hate the dtv system. they do have channels that dish don't!!! i would let one go bankrupt and buy it on the cheap cause it's not worth anything in todays world.. why ATT want's 70% of it is beyond me. isn't charlies $$$ tied up in 5G??? i don't know of anyone that would want them..

I don’t like the DTV system. May not matter, because I suspect both will be run together if there’s a merger. I just feel that taking over DTV is an emotional thing with Charlie. I expect it would be cheaper to let DTV fail and buy their satellites and maybe ground stations on the cheap. No need...

I am up north in San Francisco where on Tuesday Morning, there was a brownout for 2 seconds before the power went back on. On my system when I upgraded to the Hopper H3 in 2016 from a Hopper 2000 when I first got DISH in 2012 after Directv moved TVB Jadeword (Chinese Cantonese programming...

Maybe where the Tech was traveling from encountered snow issues?

My dish became slightly out of alignment from dirt erosion under a temporary NPRM on the ground. Very heavy rains and then snow here in California. My highest signal is in the 20s but most channels I watch are working amazingly! The tech reported snow and did not show up which was a lie we have...

You know that kids game stop-go well it seems to be a very confused game of stop-n-go Story time... After some heavy rains and then snow the ground underneath my NPRM eroded enough to lose 129. My new to me Birdog's were not properly programed, and their site is now completely down. I called...

It sucks, but it is what it is. You can haggle with Dish afterwards, but their system is likely being rebuilt from the ground up. Stuff like this takes two plus weeks for normal sized companies. Dish is bigger than a normal sized company.

You're probably missing a drip loop, the interesting thing is you'll never see this kind of corrosion with CATV or OTA antenna, the voltage the receiver send up to the LNB causes this corrosion.

Well a good Radio Broadcast Engineer keeps a supply of RG-6 connectors on hand lol. Now that it is dry out, I thought, ok, lets just see what I can do from the ground as the dish is way too high up for me and my ladder is not tall enough lol. I remember Dish came out once before to do exactly...

Through many, many iterations of Dish receivers they all have a daily reset timer built in to flush memory leaks, empty poor software occurrences and clear the units ram for a nightly guide download (which also can happen anytime in the back ground). It is not unusual for the nightly reset to...

I'm looking to the bright side now. Going to one Bird will help us & our neighbor at our Cabin in the interion of BC. We run 4 buried cables in conduit about 300 feet from the dish to a multiswitch at the Cabin (with 4 cables going onto the neighbors' from there about 250 feet away. When...
