    On the Hopper 3, is there a way to accurately check the satellite and transponder a channel is on? Diagnostics- Dish is all over the place. Sometimes it gets stuck on a spot beam, no matter the channel I change the receiver to. Sometimes it changes, but shows the wrong sat or even the wrong...

    SEC Network SD disappeared

    FCC eliminates NFL blackout rules. What's in it for Dish customers?

    Today, the FCC eliminated the federal regulation of blackouts. It does seem that the leagues can still negotiate blackouts with local broadcasters, not anymore under the guise or protection of a federal law, but probably, only because they want to. This discussion is not intended to discuss any...

    PTAT Saved Shows and extended time or padding question

    Hello Trying to figure this out. I have PTAT on, DVR defaults of extended time or padding to begin 1 minute early, end 3 minutes after.
