    What Happened to Esquire?

    We missed it immediately. When I am doing other things, I would let NCIS LA marathons run in the background. Have seen them all but never tire of having that running while I am surfing, etc. Yes other channels run it, though very occasionally and only a few episodes at a time. We do have...

    No guide info for OTA CBS, NBC, ABC

    OK - rescanned, and now have them. They had only showed the channel callsign and no program titles. Thanks!

    No guide info for OTA CBS, NBC, ABC

    Hello - I live near Sioux Falls, SD and have two HWS receivers and two Joeys. My main HWS has an additional OTA dongle. I am unable to effectively use the OTA on either receiver to schedule series because there is no guide detail for the local CBS, NBC, or ABC channels. I can schedule them on...

    EHD to Hopper

    I just upgraded today from a 922 to a hopper. I had an EHD which I hadn't used for a while (maybe since I had a 622) and when plugged into the 922 to copy my recordings, it said it was formatted to a different account and asked to format, and I let it. Then I copied a half disk full of shows...

    Hopper upgrade

    I have 4 TV's and record a lot, so am going with two HWS and two Joey's, and am adding OTA adapters to the HWS's, so will have a total of eight tuners.

    Hopper upgrade

    Post this to the Hopper Upgrades thread stickied above. A Dish support person will PM you if you have PM's enabled, they'll get specifics and then shoot you a deal. You'll want a HWS at your main TV, then a Joey at each of the others.

    Hopper Upgrades

    DIRT - After doing more research, looks like I'd have to get rid of the owned 612 so now thinking that to have enough tuners we might want two Hopper HWS, two Joeys, two OTA modules, and the Dish 1000 plus. Looks like my current dish is a Dish 1000 with a dual feed and a single feed, fed...

    Hopper Upgrades

    DIRT, please contact me. I have a 622 and a 922 that are leased, using them for three TV's. The 922 has been requiring reset several times a week to resolve various issues. I also own a 612 for another TV. The last two times I've had someone out to do work, they commented that we have an old...

    S113 out just 2 days after S112. Was having EHD problems w/mutliple drives on hub. Fixed?

    Problem with S113 - can't watch TV when recording from the dish Ever since S113 came out, when things are recording off the dish we can't watch anything. We either just get a black screen or an acquiring signal screen. Have not verified, but I don't believe it does this when recording from...

    Small Android App Update

    This release also made it work on my rooted motodroid. Before that it would simply exit as soon as I went into it - no error or anything. Now I can login in and everything seems to work. Dish told me previously it was a problem with my rooted phone - but they seemed to have fixed their...

    Dish Remote Access Android App Help

    While it's easy to blame the rooting or the custom kernel, I have not had problems with any other app. I will be updating to the latest Cyanogen shortly and that will have the most recent updates.

    Dish Remote Access Android App Help

    I've got a bit of a different issue than others. I've got the original Moto Droid and the Dish app exits immediately upon running it, with no errors or other messages. Screen goes black, then goes back to the desktop. I never get into the app at all. I've tried reinstalling, rebooting, etc...

    Sling firmware update for the 922

    I can't even get the android app to start. I go into it, and it immediately exits with no error or message. Some are getting this, some get a FC, some get in but can't login, some can login but things don't work right, and for some everything works. Seems pretty random, possibly depending on...

    signal loss light to moderate rain

    Check mount stability and have it repeaked I'd sure look at two things; stability of the mount and aim. For the first year we had Dish, we could count on losing signal when winds were gusting over 25MPH or so, which is pretty common here. I went up and tightened bolts and found that one of...

    No Phone Line = FREE Pay Per View?

    At some point it would stop allowing PPV until you plug it in and allow it to upload the report.

    Slick way to get receiver on broadband

    New they can be had for $60 or so, but got mine for $43 (shipped) on Ebay. Yes - I meant it allows acknowledgment that lets Dish know that the receiver is online.

    Slick way to get receiver on broadband

    I recently put a 612 receiver in a bedroom that had no good way to run an ethernet cable so it can do broadband. I picked up an Asus WL-330gE which is a multifunction network device the size of a deck of cards. One mode allows it to make an Ethernet device wireless. You hook it to your...

    Sioux Falls, SD locals now HD

    According to yesterdays charlie chat it is listed under coming soon, but not coming in March. Perhaps April or May. I must be wrong about the work they were doing the other day and about it being HD...

    Timers not updating (Spring Forward Problem?)

    Any chance you had a timer recording when the update was supposed to happen at 3AM? If so, then perhaps it didn't correct until you forced it manually.

    Sioux Falls, SD locals now HD

    Hmmm... I could be wrong but going back and forth several times between offair (which is HD) and Dish locals, I could not see any difference. I'll be able to tell for sure tomorrow night with Leno - that's always really obvious...

    Sioux Falls SD Fox audio

    Yup - and the video is pixellated too. It's not dish though - since the offair signal is screwed up too. I can see the tower from my house so if I've got offair problems then KTTW or Fox is having problems.

    Timers not updating (Spring Forward Problem?)

    Fine here I don't have any ideas for you but they're correct on my 622.
