    NCIS: Tony and Ziva, Paramount+

    Grey's Anatomy is another one they can cancel, as far as I am concerned. It has been on for 20 years now. :oops:

    High Potential-ABC

    I feel that way about the "High Potential" chick too. She is supposed to be a very I.Q. individual, but her taste in clothes tends to be late 60s or early 1970's hooker sheek. I laugh every time I see her on screen. The high boots and the mini skirt just scream hooker to me. Plus her...

    Is This a Valid LNB Configuration for Two Hopper 3?

    I wonder if you are using the Android DISH Plus unit plugged into your hopper? I think if you have the Plus unit it will output in 4k and even allow you to see 4k events like pay per views in your guide to be downloaded to your receiver. If you just have the hopper with sling, you don't...

    Space X to Merge with EchoStar?

    EchoStar was founded in 1980 ( 45 years ago) by Charlie Ergen and Candy Ergen and Jim DeFranco as a distributor of C-band satellite TV dishes. Originally operating as Echosphere Corporation, it evolved from a small Colorado-based retailer into a major satellite owner and operator, later...

    Time to get that 1 gig speed plan. ;)

    Hopper 2 software

    Use the tool menu under diagnostics and update it yourself to the latest software.

    Cold weather signal loss

    I just posted the same thing and then deleted it because you beat me to it. :biggrin

    Satellite Channels Moving to Streaming Only

    Try covering the lnb with a burlap bag or black plastic bag outside and see if it defaults to streaming and then uncover when you are done so it still updates nightly etc.

    NCIS: Tony and Ziva, Paramount+

    I think they waited too long to bring these two back. By the time this series came out I just didn't care to watch it any longer. I am still watching NCIS the original, but it hasn't felt as good to me since Gibbs left. It's been on for over 22 years and in it's 23 rd season. Maybe time to...

    Space X to Merge with EchoStar?

    I think for Charlie in someways the journey to getting to be a billionaire and making DISH what it is today, was what he enjoyed. Remember the Charlie Chats and adding all the locals around the country? Now that he has reached that goal and he is 72, he might consider giving the company up...

    Guide differences

    My Next Gen Tablo did the same thing. I like it, but would prefer that we could still set the guides to what we prefer. Instead of their preset choices.

    Space X to Merge with EchoStar?

    So now Elon might end up owning Echostar, which also owns DISH and SLING TV and Boost Too? I guess Charlie is looking for the golden parachute to finally retire. :rolleyes:

    Stranger Things 2, 3 & 4 & Five

    I wonder if we have to watch the finale while intoxicated, since we are having it come out on New Year's Eve?🍾🥂

    Sling TV President Takes Over Dish TV, Overseeing Both Businesses - September 21, 2023

    I started reading it and forgot it wasn't today's posts. Then I looked at the year and stopped.

    DISH Has Made it Impossible to be a VIP211k Owner

    "Mammories like the corners of my mind."..🎶 .

    Looks like Netflix/Warner Bros. is happening. (or maybe not.)

    Soon there will be 4 companies owning everything and you will have sub to all of them to get all the content you want and your back to cable all over again. :smug

    OTA has bit the Dust

    Like I said before, they should of come out with this unit about 5 years ago and it might of helped customers stay longer. But the way things are going with streaming, this unit may not be needed much longer. I just love the way you can watch your satellite locals and cable channels and...

    OTA has bit the Dust

    Can't compare since he has the older Hopper with sling instead of Hopper 3, but I bet it is faster. I notice one thing that makes a difference that he pointed out to me. He uses an ethernet cord directly to the Hopper instead of wireless. He said it makes it more stable and it doesn't lose...

    OTA has bit the Dust

    My buddy recently got the Plus unit added to his old hopper with sling and two Joey 4s replaced his Joey 3s and I saw it at Thanksgiving when I went to his house to visit. It is cool. It outputs the upconverted 4k picture on everything and even does real 4k if something is in it, and you...

    OTA has bit the Dust

    I got rid of my land line about 15 years ago. It simply doesn't make sense to have one since all that calls me on it was people trying to sell you crap or scam you. We just use our cell phones for everything.

    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...

    Stranger Things 2, 3 & 4 & Five

    Stranger things have happened. ;)
