If people think that the parking fee makes moral or logical sense, then that's the problem right there! (If you're worried about non-patrons using the parking spots, make them show a ticket to get into the lot. It's not rocket science. But then again, apparently rocket science isn't even...

You were supposed to be able to do it, by federal law. But I don't think there were a lot of options for receivers ever made, and I don't know if any cable company was ever penalized for not complying. But at least they tried. I don't know if the law is still in effect (I have a feeling that...

I said a long time ago that they should've been held to the same standard as cable: you could buy your own receiver and get a card from the programing provider.

Mark just sold his basketball team, so hopefully he has the time and money to take care of his TV channel if that's really where the problem is coming from.

I emailed the old address that used to get stuff like this fixed, even though people have said it doesn't work anymore. It didn't bounce, but nobody answered it either.

I use timers very rarely, but I've never had a problem with them. I did do a clean install of version 5, versus importing my settings from the old version. I seem to remember all sorts of problems doing that in the past. And it lets me get a fresh scan of all my satellites anyway.

The bring-your-own-phone pages say that hotspot is available as an add-on. They don't say how much it costs.

It's been happening for a few weeks, and seems to be getting worse. I know my dish alignment isn't fantastic, but there are no breakups on any other channels, and more to the point, there's no break whatsoever in the video, just the audio.

I'll take it if you haven't sold it already. I can pay by PayPal.

I have something very similar to this on my Hopper 2 on H264: does HWS H264 have a bug with watching a recording in progress? I think it's updated to H265 since then, but I haven't been brave enough to test it. And tonight I had an absolutely ridiculous glitch. I started watching Andrew...

You're not going to be happy when 103 shuts down. I don't know when that's supposed to be, but I imagine it's not too far off since most of what's on it is duplicated on 101.

No such issues here, just the watching-a-recording-in-progress issue I posted about.

If I'm not mistaken, there's no flex pack that has MTV Classic, which is the only MTV channel we watch. The package lineups would seem to be deliberately designed to be useless if one wants anything other than the most insipid basic channels.

I don't have the protection plan, as I'm giving Dish way too much money as it is for what little I use these days. (Of course, their plans are arranged such that we need the Top 250 or whatever they call it now to get the channels we *do* watch.) I could install a dish myself, including aiming...

A local retailer put this dish in, I think about 10 years ago. I don't remember how long the pole was, but as you can see there's 4 feet above ground, so I'm sure there's no more than 2 feet underground, if it's even a 6-foot pole and not 5 feet. More to the point, the ground was very rocky...

Wednesday night I was watching the hockey game on TNT. I started the recording from the beginning about an hour after it began, forwarding all the commercials and the first intermission. About two minutes into the second period, the screen suddenly froze, and "Live TV" flashed a couple of...

Anything washes up on my property, I'm claiming it under marine salvage law!

I'm not a moderator. Or at least, nobody ever told me I was :) I haven't tried checking the box.

I'm seeing a "Select For Moderation" checkbox to the left of the Report button on posts in the Back Room.

Or maybe too many of their clients haven't switched to the new system.

If you just want sane channel-changing behavior with the arrow keys, look for a menu item called something like "Neutrino-style zapping". That will save you from having to remap each button.

There's no way to see the encoder counts. The receiver sends a command to the motor to store the current position in a numbered memory slot in the motor, and you tell the receiver which slot to use for each satellite.

Maybe some people don't want to be in a contract in case Dish drops channels they care about. I mean, it's already been demonstrated that there's no limit as to what channels they'll drop.

Lately my 4k (no +) has been having what seems to be the same issue -- no signal until I reboot. It happens with both PurE2 and TNAP. I'm not sure what triggers it to stop working, but it frequently seems to happen after a blind scan. The scan will work, but then I won't be able to watch...

If I'm remembering correctly, I think my Amiko Mini HD RE would either delete or refuse to display (I can't remember which) the last satellite in the list any time a satellite list was saved and re-loaded.
