    Maybe it's time we change tactics w/ Pac12, AMC, etc.

    These disputes have become so commonplace. Any day almost, you can type re-trans dispute into google and find some news somewhere. The main point here is, with so many content providers and broadcasting companies bundling channels or buying groups of locals etc, it is basically making the...

    dish network is really beginning to suck!!! (Issue Resolved)

    Sounds like a RETAILER sold them the equipment NOT an installer. The retailer probably didnt wanna deal with the install or already did the install and now the CONFUSION LIES IN WHAT REP TOLD WHO WHAT (DISH CORPORATE, RETAILER, DNS TECH). I believe the retailer dropped the ball and made some...

    speculation on FCC ruling allowing DISH to buildout their 4GLTE

    Sounds like an awesome competitive combo to me. Especially since ATT is getting into both as well.

    speculation on FCC ruling allowing DISH to buildout their 4GLTE

    Correct but LTE advanced is only required to support down to LTE which is the whole reason why they don't wanna build out fast to support current popular systems just to turn around and upgrade immediately after to LTE and LTE advanced. They wanna hit the ground running without immediate upgrade...

    speculation on FCC ruling allowing DISH to buildout their 4GLTE

    yea supposedly 2015 according to the filing response to ATT wanting them to hurry with the buildout. I do believe it is going to be only for LTE and beyond. Because many devices arent available for it yet, it won't be available for a while but it'll b a good thing for diversifying if you are a...

    speculation on FCC ruling allowing DISH to buildout their 4GLTE

    I am very excited that dish may get the ruling from FCC within the next couple weeks. However I am concerned how they will implement the technology. I may be mistaken but I think they are wanting to use the 2ghz band or something similar (please correct me if I am wrong). If I am not wrong, does...

    Dish's New Internet Offering

    As a way to diversify, you could maybe charge an outside service fee to "optimize" their computer. This would validate the additional time to clean up and speed up their computer. If a guy knew what he was doing anyway. I used to be a tech support guy for Caterpillar (the heavy machinery...

    Who is not interested in Prime Time Anytime?

    And what's funny is how quick we will all know once we get to unbox one. And then all this typing and reading and speculating analyzing video will be for nothing. Except we enjoy it...lol.

    Bloomberg: AT&T’s Need for Spectrum Signals Dish Bid at Decade-High Premium: Real M&A

    From the way I understand it, Joe Clayton is only gonna be around for 5 years. That's the plan. Ergen wanted to be more in command on the future strategy and overall vision of DISH as head chairman but left day to day operations to CEO Clayton. Ergen is now CEO of Echostar which is the...

    Why am I being told the 722 and 722k are the same thing?

    I guess I wasn't clear when I said nobody makes money, I meant nobody "but echosphere" makes money on the receiver. Obviously, they are the manufacturer.
