    NASA TV Uplink Change

    Pretty sad when an outage goes on into a weekday and dish already has a dish on Galaxy 13 for Starz. What the heck is going on at TOC in Cheyenne? All they need to do is take the current NASA TV receiver and connect it to a spare Distribution Amp port for the galaxy 13 downlink or route a hot...

    For Dish, Slinging OTT Might Pay Off

    Dish is missing the boat, they should be selling the same package of channels available on OTT Sling to existing satellite subscribers that are out of contract.

    HD feeds being added to Welcome Pack!

    Dish should offer the same sling TV package for $20 to existing dish satellite subs without requiring locals.

    HD feeds being added to Welcome Pack!

    There was the AMC dispute 2 or 3 years ago and Dish gave out free Roku LTs and credit to make up for the loss of AMC to those that complained including to Welcome pack subs. After AMC settled the dispute with Dish the channel was put into free preview mode for awhile but never returned to the...

    Anyone recognize this DISH box?

    A google image search shows that is a picture of a M31T for Dish Mexico. https://dishmx.blob.core.windows.net/prod/pdf/M31T.pdf

    Sun outage no longer interrupts satellite reception?

    That new picture of the 97 west dish at 2:09 pm shows that now, what are those little mirrors you used? Are they stickers or tape that contours flush to the curvature of the dish?

    Sun outage no longer interrupts satellite reception?

    The higher power used for KU band Direct To Home on 97 west and other DBS satellites does not experience a total outage the way lower powered KU band and C-band does. Since that first picture was taken only 14 minutes before it shows that the dish was shaded so that portion of your dish that is...

    Sunday fiber time! Low cost fiber fta link.

    I have been following this thread from the start since I work in Telecom. Seems like a lot of potential points of failure for going 80 feet away. It reminds me of the old Rube Goldberg machine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rube_Goldberg_machine

    Intermittent Inoperable 21.1 remote control

    Besides the things I mentioned earlier about cheap HDMI cables, USB 3.0 cables and DC power transformers, if you happen to use a MT-2 OTA module in the 722k you might want to check the 75-ohm connector, also on the home distribution settings in the 722k menu under modulator setup what channel do...

    Intermittent Inoperable 21.1 remote control

    Besides checking HDMI cables you could also check any USB cables and USB devices especially USB 3.0 devices and any external 12v or 5V power adapters near by.

    Intermittent Inoperable 21.1 remote control

    I have a FTA satellite receiver for 97 west that if it was powered on causes the TV2 remote on a 222k not to operate, I think I eventually figured out that the HDMI out was operating in the 25 mhz to 680 MHz range and either the 1.29 HDMI cable or the 6.00 3x1 HDMI switch I was using was on the...

    Dish network arbitration email

    Since this notice to opt out is not clearly stated on a monthly billing statement, either electronic or otherwise, there is no expectation of receipt, such as in the expectation of a billing statement and which is furnished regularly once every 30 days. I don't recall that I was previously...

    SAT. 118

    118 can be combined with the EA, 61.5 TP 14 contains the guide and it is also QPSK. A DPP44 can do 61.5, 72, 77, 118. http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/dpp44-eastern-arc-sats.351482/

    HLN (ch. 202), part of the Welcome Pack now?

    I would like to know if the person seeing TNT as part of the welcome pack is on the eastern arc or western arc?

    SAT. 118

    Sling International, formerly called Dishworld, has 7 day replay instead of DVR.

    SAT. 118

    just one, you can also add 121 tp21 to that list which is going to remain QPSK for the same reasons as 118.

    SAT. 118

    Unless they add something to 118 (not likely) these transponders would have to remain QPSK for a 501 to work on 118. 129 tp21 110 tp21 119 tp19 or 121 tp21

    SAT. 118

    You cannot operate a receiver only connected to 118 as the EPG setup has never allowed that for whatever reason. These would have to remain QPSK for a 501 to work on 118. 129 tp21 110 tp21 119 tp19

    SAT. 118

    This is my theory, the minimum SNR ratio (signal to noise) at 118 and the dish 500+ size does not meet the requirement for doing 8PSK reliably since Anik F3 is not a DBS satellite, I think I remember that they tried converting the Racetrack Television transponders to 8PSK when they moved them...

    Is there a way to request OTA guide data?

    Yes they are, not as a provider but as an "equipment manufacturer," they made the OTA module and the receiver's firmware. Has someone also decided to skirt paying an ATSC patent license fee ($5 per unit) for each module? They have chosen to ignore the ATSC PSIP and run the ratings in house and...

    Is there a way to request OTA guide data?

    Does Dish lack of support of the guide data skirt the FCC rules and the V-chip guidelines of the Telecommunications Act of 1996? Since it does not interpret the program rating being transmitted in the PSIP data on the OTA channels in which they do not provide guide data via satellite (Digital...

    welcome pack and ota with 222k - dish says too bad

    This sounds like a ratings problem check your locks, the OTA channels have a NR/AO TV-MA ratings since there is no guide info and get locked out.

    Al Jazeera America $5.00 a la carte ?

    So I dropped Current TV today after my 30 days were up. Not worth $5 unless I am getting BBCW, NHKW, AJAM, FR24, CNNI. Was tired of the cropped picture and current TV dish banner!
