    What's For Lunch?

    Chicken tenders are one of my favorite things. We have a pub here in Albuquerque that runs a special every once in a while called "Loaded Chicken Tenders." It's 4 large chicken tenders and fries smothered in Hatch green chile sauce and cheese. It's amazing.

    Hopper 3 with sling already bit the dust installed 11-13

    I got this installed Nov 13 by a local dealer. I hope whatever they send me next lasts longer than a couple weeks. Is that one of the first Hopper 3 models? Dish says the free replacement they're sending me is a newer model. We'll see how it goes in 1 to 5 business days.

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    Page 53 of the Users Guide posted above clearly states "destination multicast IP address" in Figure 38. Most firewalls/routers that have multicast support is exactly for supporting provider IPTV, which is really access into the provider's private multicast network via an internet last-mile...

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    I was tempted to buy an eBay International Datacasting Superflex receiver solely for snooping satellite data. They also make the Novra series of data receivers used to NOAAPORT ground stations. I''m not sure if a particular router that is tailored for multicasting is necessary. And the apparent...

    Using commercial receivers for recording?

    Does anybody have any experience with that Octagon SF8008 Supreme dual tuner receiver that Rick is selling? Can it output TS files? It appears to be similar to the Edision receivers that have a WebIf interface and streaming capabilities. https://rickssatelliteusa.com/sf8008supreme.htm

    Well, in that case, bigger dish, and/or better aim might help.

    Rest NTSC mode on Octagon SF 8008

    I just can't get the menu to show up. If I could do that I know what to do to reset it. All I was going to do was adjust the brightness a bit. When the menu came up I started to scroll down to do that and everything just went dark. So I just don't know what to do to get the menu to show back up...

    OTA has bit the Dust

    Yes, the 722K had the plug in module for OTA. The 722 had a built in OTA tuner. I had a 722 before my first Hopper and it had an OTA coax input. By the time the 722K came out the business decision was to make the OTA tuner a customer elected decision. If you wanted OTA you had to purchase...

    OTHER Loses signal in the afternoon on SES 2?

    Hi Mike The new lnb is a Geosat pro SL1PLL and the TX is 11960 H 30000 I set it up to 10750 when I installed the new cable and this morning, no problems but I'm sure this evening the quality will struggle and drop out. Thanks for responding. Steve

    OTA has bit the Dust

    I do remember the 722k had an external ota tuner that you could add to it to give you ota recording. It slid in the back of the receiver and you screwed it in. I guess they figured it was cheaper to do the USB tuner instead. Although I have to say I have had quite a lot of those tuners go...

    HBO Max Black Friday Deal

    I got this deal through my Roku. This is the first time I have ever subscribed to any HBO product for various reasons including price and because I would usually wait for a free preview on cable or satellite to record any movies I was interested in watching. Going to the theater is so expensive...

    Any '25 Black Friday Peacock Deals?

    They were speculating, but they were wrong. As of right now, there's NO $19.99 Black Friday special for Peacock. Mine expired this past Tuesday, so we are OUT. I'm not even paying for the Walmart deal, because we couldn't really use it for anything else. So much Walmart stuff is now counterfeit...
