    Update. Looks like everything is fine now. Just one very small drop now less than 3 seconds.

    Las Vegas users Dead Air

    On the way home from work yesterday I had plenty of disruptions, I take a different way home than when I go in. Today I don't remember one disruption. So maybe I just had to deal with it while T-Mo did their fine tuning. I guess I'll find out Monday morning.

    Got a little better today. Now all of the signal drops were along I-15 from Spring Mtn Rd. to Cheyenne with the worst from being from Washington to Cheyenne a 3 mile stretch being mostly dead air.

    I'm going with T-Mo being the problem. It would be one hell of a coincidence that the antenna on both cars went bad on the same day. I know they have been implementing some low band but that shouldn't affect the sat signal maybe they are adjusting the freqs on high band also.:imconfused The...

    yup using sat. I had this problem last year on my truck and it was an upgrade of the antenna that fixed it. But now I notice it on both my cars starting yesterday.

    Account is fine. Display will say acquiring signal then after about 10 seconds says no signal. I can sit at a stop light and it will lose signal 3 or 4 times. I was so bad on the way to work today I was lucky if I would hear 3 or 4 words. I know T-Mobile is doing upgrades here in town again, I...

    For the last two days reception has been awful on both of my cars, I can drive miles with no signal. Anybody else experiencing this?

    Hopper 3 Feature Sheet

    I have a question about the guide. At the present I have a VIP622 and on certain stations they have shows that start at :15 and :45 but I'm only able to see one of the shows on the guide in that 30 minute span. Example: Cartoon Network with Adult Swim they have a show that starts at 2am then the...

    HR 34 REPLACEMENT POLICY 01/22/16

    So are they only giving out HR44's or 54's to new customers now? I get hooked up on Saturday. My order sheet says I'm getting 4k support, so that would be the 54 right?

    Chicago DMA Satellites

    Capture by jpeckinp posted Jan 22, 2016 at 8:40 PM This is what I am dealing with. The line is the 99.2 sat. Just found this from a post I made in 2007. http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/posts/878179/

    Chicago DMA Satellites

    Maybe it was 72. It's been 12-13 years since I first tried and the brain ain't like it used to be.

    Chicago DMA Satellites

    I'm on the 12th floor of an apartment building and on the west facing side, I have to hang my dish out off my balcony to get the signal. The south side of my balcony is a concrete wall and it kept me from getting the signal before that was on the 92 sat.

    Chicago DMA Satellites

    I used a sat finder app and it looks like I should be able to get DTV now. From what I read 99.2 is the farthest east for me now and by looking at the sat I have just enough clearance now. Find out for sure on the 30th when they come for the install.

    I'm with Dish now and have to use W arc 110,119,129. Thanks for your response.

    Chicago DMA Satellites

    I'm in the Chicago DMA and 13 years ago I couldn't get DTV because I didn't have a view of anything below I think 100. Has it changed for this area since then? What are the main sats for this area now I guess is the question I'm asking.

    the Dish 2016 predictions thread: Post your predictions here.

    My prediction is I will return my Vip211 and lower my package from Top250 to Top200. Rate increase my ass. Just knocked $17 off my bill which after the increase will be a savings of $12/mo. Take that Charlie!

    called to cancel service

    Called to cancel today as $204/yr was way too much. They lowered me to $99/yr $112 with all fees and gave me free travellink and 1yr of traffic for free.

    Black screen on several channels on the western arc.

    Look at other threads. Many have lost channels this morning. Locals, super stations, Sirius. I have locals & sirius but lost others.

    Sirius Music Channels down?

    I think dish is having problems. I've lost a bunch of channels on 110 & 129 others have lost locals.

    How long do your movies take to arrive in the mail?

    It takes 4-5 days for me to get my movies. The distribution site is less than 5 miles from me.

    Transponder tuning?

    Looks like I have some work to do. 110 14=61 15=61 16=62 21=64 119 14=61 15=70 16=75 21=74 129 17=50 18=53 We had a lot of sats lost Friday night but it wasn't a normal rain storm. 2"/hr is way too heavy to test signal strength.:D After tuning again. 110 14=61 15=63 16=62 21=66 119...

    Transponder tuning?

    Before I moved it 129 was in the high 50's low 60's. My lowest reading was 57. I could get that back but if I do I lose on my 110. I have a concrete wall blocking my 110 reception because I moved it back, that was the reason I had it out over the edge to begin with.

    Transponder tuning?

    Thanks Looks like I have a little tuning to do. 110 19=52 21=62 119 19=74 21=77 129 19=53 21=61 119 looks great but 110 and 129 could do better. Looks like this is the best I can do on these TP's 110 19=55 21=66 119 19=73 21=75 129 19=53 21=62

    Transponder tuning?

    Sorry Jim but I do have to move it. Q: Does the rule apply to condominiums or apartment buildings if the antenna is installed so that it hangs over or protrudes beyond the balcony railing or patio wall? A: No. The rule does not prohibit restrictions on antennas installed beyond the balcony...
