    DISH - CenturyLink Nightmare

    I hope it works better than my 100MB service in Iowa. Wildly variable speeds and frequent drop-outs. (100 MB fiber with TDS in NH actually works all the time. And it's cheaper than Mediacom.)

    Real news channel

    We finally got a real weather channel. Any chance we'll get a real news channel (i.e., one that has not obsessed about US elections for the last 2 years to the exclusion of all else)?

    Weather nation (Now available on ch 215)

    Yeah, but this oneo actually shows weather!

    No hopping in CBS locals

    Better get used to skipping with BOTH thumbs; but it is, after all, half the reason I got a DVR. It would help their cause, too, if they did not have such stupid commercials and did not repeat them time after time, even within the same program. I don't watch anything in real-time anymore. Who does?

    Fox News is back

    Only if they put Al Jazeera on HD.

    Reruns recording on "my recordings"

    They WERE new only, but had changed to new and reruns for reasons I don't understand. After reading this thread I figured this out and changed them back to new only. How did they change? I am very careful not to pick up reruns (unless I want them). Leads to bloat in the "my recordings" listings...

    Reruns recording on "my recordings"

    This has been happening all Fall. I am getting many recordings posting in "my recordings" for reruns from earlier in the season for programs I watch which have quit airing new shows. This has not happened in previous seasons. Right now it is very frequent. This is becoming very irritating...

    What is going to happen?

    Does that mean I can get my distant CBS/Fox stations from SF back?

    Dish Network Corp. (DISH) founder Charlie Ergen said he may permanently drop Time Warner Inc.

    A day without Wolf Blitzer is like a day with extra sunshine. But what does Charlie propose to give us to make up for this loss? BBC International, France 24, whatever was on Current before they came along?

    OT Microwave interference with WiFi

    What channel is your router on? I move mine from time to time both to avoid neighbors and to see if something I cannot see is interfering with wifi. I'm on channel 2, but often on channel 11 (playing tag with a neighbor). Channel 1 is said to be prone to this sort of interference (and is often...

    What channels do you want in HD?

    Al Jazeera America (provided in HD already) Discovery Wings (yes, I know. Became military. Would like lots of civil / alternative aviation as well as military aviation).

    Official DISH Channel Request Thread

    I'd rather have an aviation-themed (only partially military) avaiation channel. HD.

    Official DISH Channel Request Thread

    Discovery Wings - went military quickly. There is a lot of aviation that is not military. I would not mind a mix, but Discovery Military is something I seldom watch. Aviation more general would attract me frequently.

    With real weather and hopefully without Sam Champion and Al Roker.

    al jazeera america

    And since it is provided in HD, can Dish provide it in HD? (or does that depend on audience?).

    Official DISH Channel Request Thread

    Al Jazeera comes in HD and is down-converted to SD. Content isn't that bad. If you want propaganda, go see what RT is running on Ukraine right now.

    I miss Discovery Wings and wish they'd included all the non-military aviation available.

    Remote would not input channel number

    After the last update (3-3-14 8:41 a.m.) I could not input numbers with the remote without entering "guide". (Settings/Diagnostics/Backup Wizard shows the last backup date). I restored first the remote, then the hopper and it worked normally after a hard reset. I've never had this happen...

    Hopper and Cold weather

    What is a node? It's going to be -21F tomorrow night, they say. No problems in eastern Iowa so far (we have had lots of weather like this this winter).

    Joeys going to black for a few seconds

    My Hopper is doing that lately going to channel 2 from nearly anywhere. But only channel 2. The rest take 2-3 seconds, as always (gives me a chance to change my mind. I've come to regard it as a feature).

    Sunday nights on CBS and Fox

    We watch a couple of shows on Sunday nights. Football games push these past their scheduled times. Dish seems to record them at their scheduled times regardless of when they actually appear. Please find a way to upgrade the code to find these and record them when they actually appear! We can...
