    Relocate dish?

    Just reporting back to say thanks. Tried 3 different apps, two I didn't understand too well but the winegard worked great - I guess I'm a visual person and actually pointing my phone to see where the satellites are worked great - above the tree line so should be ok. I calibrated the compass...

    Relocate dish?

    But do you think close enough to give me a rough idea that the treeline is below. I'm fairly certain it is but just want to be sure. Like if the treeline is many degrees below where one of the apps show the satellites are at, we should be ok, right?

    Relocate dish?

    We are going to have our dish relocated from the roof to an existing pole about one foot to the east of where it is and approx. 10-15 feet below. I already contacted dish on cost so I'm good with that. BUT, I wanted to see if there was an app or a way to make sure the dish will work from that...

    Issue with skip forward and pause - Hopper

    Not happy with Dish, still no update on this issue and now my auto hop isn't working. What the hell are they doing? I've done all the normal things in hopes of it being fixed but no such luck. Can't imagine BOTH hard drives would be going at exactly the same time. Both my receivers are doing...

    Issue with skip forward and pause - Hopper

    Anyone heard an update on this? Still doing the same thing, had hoped the software would have been corrected by now. Really getting irritating. :(

    Issue with skip forward and pause - Hopper

    For approximately 2-3 weeks now I've had a problem with skip forward and pause on my hoppers. Not a hopper 3, I guess a 2? My remotes are 40.0. Here's what's going on - I have two hoppers, if I access and watch a program from the opposite hopper when I press skip forward to go thru...

    Watching programs from one dvr to the other = fade

    Hmm, I don't think I waited a full minute. I will give that a try tomorrow when stuff isn't recording and see if it clears up. Glad to see that I'm not the only one.

    Watching programs from one dvr to the other = fade

    Yes, have tried that. Still happens. Luckily it's not an everyday thing to watch a show on the opposite one but it's annoying when I do.

    Watching programs from one dvr to the other = fade

    Thanks, thought so. We don't have OTA. I've noticed it on the broadcast networks (nbc, abc, cbs), haven't watched any other channels recently. Just to reiterate, this is on recordings only. The picture is crystal clear live and when watching the recording on the hopper it was actually...

    Watching programs from one dvr to the other = fade

    Tried to google an image but can't find one. No, not like the old snowy stuff - it's just like if it starts raining hard or snowing and the image fades in and out (no problem with sound that I recall) - looks almost pixilated or maybe it's the macro blocked that you mentioned - squares of the...

    Watching programs from one dvr to the other = fade

    We have 2 hoppers - honestly not sure which ones but definitely not 3's, they're fairly old. When watching a program on one hopper that was recorded on the other hopper (run on sentence, ha ha) there seems to be a lot of fade during the program. This happens with both hoppers and only if...

    How Long Should I Wait For a Reply From DIRT Team Member?

    I get and agree with what you are saying but I'll throw another wrench in just to make it fun - you are right, when you lease it is short term and the warranty covers most. Once the lease is done you have to turn in the car or buy it....so why doesn't a Dish lease work like that? You keep...

    My parents have never paid for a repair and their maintenance is covered as well. I'm sure it's different for each dealership/brand, etc. BUT, we're getting totally off topic. :)

    How Long Should I Wait For a Reply From DIRT Team Member?

    I understand what you are saying, and I'm all for paying for a tech visit but not 95 dollars. As I said, I can buy a refurb on ebay for cheaper. The receivers are leased, when you lease a car, repairs are covered. Why not with electronics? Not trying to start an argument and I do not ever...

    Yes, 95 for service call, wouldn't even consider a replacement. Have had it since 2014. I have been pm'ing with Matt and he's been extremely helpful., think we'll have a resolution soon.....

    Yeah, they wanted 95 bucks, I told them to stuff it. We'll wait til it dies completely and maybe then we can get a replacement. I can buy a refurb from ebay for cheaper than that. Sad.

    Cables have all been checked. I am already quite sure that it's on its way out and was hoping to just get a replacement but always have to go thru the 100 steps first. :) Haven't gotten enough gumption to switch them around, it's a pain in the rear to do so, entails moving furniture to get...
