    MeTV in DFW market

    Well, it's on now. I originally had 247 on in this market, and when the local station started carrying MeTV a year or so ago on its main channel, Dish dropped it from my package (like, immediately). But, now that it's gone from the locals again, it appears they've turned it back on in my...

    MeTV in DFW market

    In the DFW market, starting today we're losing MeTV from the primary channel it was on (KAZD 55; moving to one of the sub channels). The banner that's been displayed says to watch it on Dish 247. I'm just curious if Dish is going to turn that channel back on for subscribers in this market. I...

    How do I do that?

    Receiver reboots quite often

    No idea. I just read about that, so I don't know. I don't think I've ever seen 77 listed as a satellite for any channels I watch. Yesterday morning (Sunday), when I turned it on, several of the HD channels (not all) just weren't there. No error message or anything. I would switch to them...

    Receiver reboots quite often

    I have a ViP 622, and in the last few months, it's started just randomly rebooting. It turns off completely (I guess it's the normal power up cycle), and then I get the "Acquiring Signal" notice. Usually, it takes a couple of minutes to go through that, sometimes it just takes a few seconds...

    Ordered new remotes...this was my experience

    I've never once had that sort of issue with UPS. They have ALWAYS driven down (in an actual UPS truck, not a rental truck) and either delivered the package face to face or left it on my porch (if I wasn't home). In the rare instances that chose not to leave it if I wasn't home, they would...

    Ordered new remotes...this was my experience

    There was no notice of delivery of any kind (physcial or email). The only thing the tracking site says is "Left at: Gate". I have neither fencing nor a gate.

    Ordered new remotes...this was my experience

    Let me make clear before I start, my interaction with Dish concerning this matter was not the problem. The customer rep I spoke with was courteous and promptly resolved my issue. However, because Dish is invovled in this process, I feel it's necessary to share my experience. On Tuesday of...

    Quick question on SiriusXM music channels

    Thanks for the reply. I think they made the switch permanent a couple of years ago...I would think that would be enough time for Dish to make the change on their feed. Apparently, I'm wrong. :)

    Quick question on SiriusXM music channels

    I'll often put on one of the music channels to listen to in the background while I'm doing other things. SiriusXM lists channel 41 as Turbo (90's and 00's hard rock), but Dish still seems to have the old Faction (punk) feed on that channel. Mistake or intended? Not a big deal, though I'd...

    So, what's up with Z-Living, ch. 191?

    This weekend, I was flipping through channels, landed on 191, and...lo and behold...they're showing MST3K. I never watched this channel in the past because I didn't care anything about it's programming, but it seems that's all changed now. Lot's of strange programming on the schedule. So...

    8/7/2013 3:47pm - Uplink Activity Report - 25 changes

    I have both of those channels in HD. KPXD (ch. 68) is the only local channel in my guide that doesn't have HD.

    HDnet movies

    Dish doesn't seem to be big on communicating things about programming with their customers, unless it's some sort of dispute.

    HDnet movies

    Ok...I guess you didn't read what I wrote. I have the 200 package, and it got removed. It doesn't show up at 130 or 383. So, was this removal a screw up, or is the website wrong?

    HDnet movies

    I see by the uplink that HDnet movies (130) was removed from "free preview" and it's gone from my guide. Yet DISH's website lists it as part of the Top200 package (which is what I have). Is it actually part of the 200 package or is the website wrong?

    Fox Soccer Plus in preview on Dish?

    You do realize you're responding to a thread from six months ago, right?

    NO HD in Evansville for FOX NFL GAME

    That happens quite often with my local Fox station. One moment, I'll be watching the game in glorious HD, and then the image turns into that SD, postage stamp size feed for several minutes. It's definitely a local issue (or the national feed coming into the local station) because the same...

    Free Previews

    I just checked and the SD version of it is on now. That just seems sort of...stupid...to advertise a preview of a channel that isn't carried (meaning the HD version).

    Free Previews

    Why would Dish advertise a preview (on Ch. 103 and their website) of a channel they don't carry?

    signal strength

    When I originally signed up, there were a couple of guys from a local company that did the install. If there was even a hint of clouds in the sky, I would lose signal most of the time. Being a newbie satellite customer, I knew nothing about signal strength and all of that stuff...I just...

    Cinemax free preview

    I see that Cinemax is listed as being in free preview this weekend, starting today. However, it doesn't appear to have been turned on (as of this moment). Just curious if there's a problem or something.

    Whats up with channels above 380s range?

    Earlier today, AMC 130 (SD) showed a slate saying that the channel was out and they were working on it, and AMC (HD) was really grainy with lots of artifacts. Now, the SD version is working, but the HD version is showing the same thing as BET (channel 124). Does anyone know what's going on?
