I thought this was important news. Dish had made a bid to buy Sprint for $25.5 Billion and competing with a Japanese company, interesting read of what is to come. What are your thoughts? Do you think it will go through...

Can you tell me what kind of Video out the Clients (mini ones) have? "F" or composite or ? Thanks

Dos'nt Dish still want the LNB's back anymore?

Hi, I've tried to google when the last final episodes of season 5 of Breaking Bad will air and got frustrated that I could not find an answer, the best I came up with was Summer 2013. Seems like a long break between the last episode in Sept. Anybody here know? Thanks...

Hi Neighbors, I feel your pain. I have a place 40 miles North of Spokane close to Newport, I'm lucky to get a few OTA channels from Spokane but a low signal, I have Dish also, I don't think the Seahawks Playoff game will be blacked out this weekend on the Dish locals. We have Dishnetwork where...

I will never forget my Dad taking me to a game when he and the Pirates came to San Diego in the Late 60's we were sitting in the right field bleachers everyone was cheering for him and he turned around and waved to us.... Thanks for the memories!!

On the Dish remote you can hit the guide button and pick form "All Channels you get", Only "All HD Channels you get" or a custom list you create. I like that feature! Good luck with your new system and welcome to "The darkside: ;)

Working for AEI as a dish installer

If he is a contractor like I used to be, keep in mind he pays for all his own consumable parts including cable so the extra line will be coming out of his own pocket. If he is a Dish hourly employee he will probably just do it for free. Either way at least a $20.00 tip would be a nice gesture.

I want a microHD for 2013

When I was installing 1.8 and 2.4 meter Vsat dishes in the Northwest we would paint the face with "Vellox" It makes it really slippery and snow has a harder time sticking to it and much more easy to brush off, hardly ever had a service call for snow buildup. I'm not sure where you would get...

Alaska Problems These are the same problems we are having too! I'm out at the end of the Aluetian Chain in Alaska, Dish has us jumping through hoops saying it must be our setup here! I hope they figure it out soon, cause I don't have much hair left!!

I had heard on the news this morning that Dish had signed an Broadband agreement that the FCC approved. They said it approves them to go into the Cellular and broadband using dishes bandwidth on it's Satellites. Does someone here know more about this and what this all means for us as consumers...

Thanks Iceberg for all your knowlege, Ya wish we could see the 119, maybe have to pull down that old water tank in the way! Yes the 129 is the one we are on right now for our dishnetwork feed, turns out you need the 110 to get the recievers thier firmware upgrades so we get them hooked up in...

Ok, Is bad things to do to a dish on a seperate forum? I think I will audio dub in "When your Dish company pisses you off, don't get mad....GET EVEN! :rant: We use another 2.4 KU band for our internet it's pointed at the "Russian Bird" you were talking about and the downlink is in London, we...

Shemya Dish Destruction Yes we get AFN (sailor-net) only 3 channels on our other 4.5M but with 40 Dish network, 5 networks and 9 DVD loop channels were not doing bad for such a small out of the way Island! Our old 14M dish was pointed at Galaxy 12 on C-band and we had 15 with that...sadly...

Here are some Pics on the Install of our 7.3M it came together pretty good with the help of Satellite Alaska out of Anchorage.

Shemya Island 7.3 M Thanks for the reply's! When we installed the 7.3 meter last year and when I was peaking it in could only get a decent signal on the 129, when I swung it over for 119 I could see a small bump on the Spec Anz but the recievers would not lock up, There are some old water...

"If you 130 are a single "family", co-op, or private club, perhaps with membership dues ...wait! ... and I'm serious when I say this: a religious congregation! Setting up your own church is trivial. at any rate, consult a creative lawyer. :) I suspect there is a way around the re-distribution...

This site is awesome! Thanks for the info, now I understand it better. Our provider must have the agreement with the networks and pays them a fee. Thanks again!

Hello, I'm out at Shemya Island at the end of the Aluetian Chain in Alaska. I maintain our private CATV system here for about 130 people on the island that we give free programing to. We are getting charged $1600 per month, $19,200 per year to recieve 5 local Network feeds that are on...

Yes, I verified with Dishnetwork that they are all the current firmware and match the existing working recievers. The latest is after being on the phone with Customer service for close to 3 hours they did something to our existing account of 30 recievers and 9 of them are now showing only half...

Thanks for the reply, Yes I have tried an existing port from the current setup and it goes through the check switch fine but after it downloads the guide still comes up with total signal loss, I go back and check the transponder channels and they all show good signal and the 129 sat is...

I am a Tech on Shemya Island Alaska, we currently have a working 30 reciever Dishnetwork headend, we use a 7 meter dish and can only see the 129 bird. We had to have our recievers hooked up in Anchorage to get a download from the 110 satellite we cannot see and then have them shipped here and...
