    Why does DISH continue to label Ch. 232 as "Rural TV" ?

    It's been over 3 years since Rural TV shut down (1-1-13 to be exact), when it was acquired by RFD-TV.... The channel was replaced/ converted (by RFD-TV) to FAMILYNET Network, airing classic shows and series, nothing to do with rural-themed programs... Yet, DISH continues to label Channel 232 as...

    Why are 4K Program Listings (Chs. 104-106) Missing in Guide ?

    I called DirecTV tonight to ask why program listings for Channels 104-106 are not showing up in the Program Guide.... They said that only 4K-capable receivers would be able to display those channel listings... I have HR-24's and H-25's.... Does this make any sense ? Up to now, you could see...

    Is Hopper 2000 w/o Sling getting New Carbon U/I ?

    Today, a DISH Tech came by to troubleshoot a problem I was having with my MoCA connections..... I asked him when would the new Carbon UI be coming to my Hopper 2000's (I have 2)-- but without Sling... He said never !... Only Hoppers 2000 with Sling (and models above) would get the new...

    Logo-HD & Centric-HD: Now Live... What is DISH Uplink Waiting for ?

    DISH has given HD bandwidth to Logo and Centric since 2009 even though these 2 networks did not have an HD feed.... Some here have wondered why DISH was wasting HD channel capacity on 2 networks that only uplinked an SD feed... The only time we have seen HD content on these 2 channels is when...

    Hopper Skipping PAC-12 Network in SD ?

    Just noticed tonight that my Hopper Program Guide does not show the full-time SD version of the PAC-12 Network (Channel 406-01) ... It lists only the HD version which is very limited part-time and thus, has no program info most of the time.... Plus, it also skips the SD channel when channel...
