    Dish Letter for outdated equipment

    I am going with a hybrid in 2026. That's when we get my wife's social security checks to add to our budget. I hybrid that charges itself when you drive is ideal and it doesn't require a separate charging cable. I doubt Texas will go full electric since they are penalizing those who buy one...

    Signal Protector

    I never had a need for 16 tuners when I used my Hopper 3. My friend has the older Hopper 2 with sling and it only has 3 tuners. He can record 3 satellite channels and 2 ota = 5. I used to have the Super joey and we gained two more sat tuners with that one. But if you have to have a hopper...

    Signal Protector

    I put 25 years in paying for satellite TV and yes it was my hobby too. But the costs out weigh the worth in this case. I have always hated the DVR fees that we weren't supposed to ever have to pay and I hated the additional receiver fees when they went to $7.00. I really hated when I had...

    I would if it didn't cost so much a month with the fees included.

    Signal Protector

    It works at my friends house. We were at his house and a rain storm hit and he had the TV on Cable News and the message popped up on the screen and I told him hit it. He did and we were back watching streaming news. Wish they had this years ago for the 25 years I had DISH.

    What do they have against Roku?

    Signal Protector

    Except with Sling TV - DISH 's sister service. I always wondered why they didn't transition all the satellite service to this capability and make it stream with the nicer guides and menus and graphics that DISH has. They could use a cloud dvr instead of physical one. Then in stead of joeys...

    Please DISH get METV back!

    I have seen most of what is on Metv. I still watch it on Saturday nights for Sci fi Saturdays. I have all the shows they show but still like to watch sometimes because it feels like comfort food. Star Trek , Lost in Space, The Time Tunnel and Kolchak the Night Stalker are fun to watch...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Me either. I still prefer my home wifi to the speeds I get with 5G.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Cost money to deploy and install it I guess and they don't have the money to finish out the cell phone towers and owe for debts that they can't pay. So why try to start anything else.

    New Install, new equipment?

    Echostar might be in business, but DISH satellite TV service won't. I don't see this lasting till 2030.

    New Install, new equipment?

    I think their focus is all on cell phone service, getting the financing money to expand out to 75% and to keep the bankruptcy from happening as long as they can. I don't think that they see them selves being a TV provider much longer. The way churn is accelerating each quarter there won't be...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    For a while, but once 2000 hit the yearly price hikes and assorted fees started coming every year and haven't stopped yet.:smug

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    My son bought his first used car when he was in Florida in the Marines. He has been getting emails and phone texts and now snail mail from XM over and over again for the last 4 years. The other day I delivered his mail under his door in his room and I put the Sirius XM mail on top and I went...

    Auto Hop?

    No it is by the individual program recorded by Prime time Anytime. For legal reasons they want to make sure the viewer answers that question so it doesn't look like DISH is skipping everything automatically without consent. The networks really want you to watch the commercials. Also the...
