"So when you carp about your favorite seldom viewed narrow interest channels not being available, the rest of us are griping about the transponders space going to waste on channels that maybe get 10,000 separate views per month"
All I watch are the intellectual, educational, and knowledge...
"IIRC there were some remotes that chewed up batteries. I had one replaced by Dish on my 622 because of this issue."
Gives me hope, thanks.:amen
Any chance there is a hole in the case allowing the electrons to leak out over time?:sorry
This is my second one, the first did OK for years, but it seemed that they should last longer. It did seem to reduce life over that time until I got fed up changing them after a month, yes cheap batteries are cheap batteries.
On the other hand at my age 6 mths seems like a month, so perhaps...
It controls a vip722. Seems to go for a month. The distance maybe 20 ft., two walls, 2 x 4 wall w/ wallboard nothing special.
Its info is as follows; 6.3, IR/UHF PRO, FCC id: dknfsk03, 143037.
My second one. Used in bedroom maybe two times a week on/off perhaps one channel or so.
The primary...
Not a good answer, surely there is someone that can create a list, perhaps not 5000, but a short list at the least. After all she does have a point.
How about an accessible user list like was done a while back with the stations owned / operated by, my that was a long, complicated one and so many...
"sorta cutting off my nose to spite my face but I really do feel strongly about this. With the exception of a few shows, TV is just a lot of white noise."
Like I said in my original statements added quote above.
Just what will I really be missing? The most I looked forward to was PBS's...
Perhaps it's not them......but us......
Amen, :deadhorse:I've been saying this ever since I found out 35 yrs ago how I had to watch commercials and pay exorbitant fees and franchise costs. Told the local cable co. to get lost (Comcast).
I always thought that the the broadcasters wanted higher...

Well, I have no idea as to what I'm about to write, but, here goes,
Illinois, Chicago
Gary, IL. should be Gary, IN.

AMC, rip........
Well, my experience is as follows;
I've been with them for approx 10 yrs. Had the lowest tier subscription due to personal budget settings, not a big fan of TV, but do have some shows I like.
I had it until they had a price increase that put me over that which I was willing to...
Welcome to the world of the Deaf and Hearing impaired. I've been fighting this this since day one. The biggest problem is really with the d****d now constant ads and channel cartoons. it's becoming worse as time goes by. Did you notice that a lot of the movies they offer for free (I only have...
All gone, for me.....
O.T.A/ DVR? Just what and how much, please. Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks. I have the least for the least and I thank them for that, but $72 more is over my budget. Checked tivo and their box is fairly priced, as is the monthly fee. I only need the Dish system due...
Thanks to all. Yes it's the ability to read the CC. Had hoped to be able to reposition rather than use an opaque background. Oh well another slight to the handicapped, cruel world. LOL.... Bet if I were totally blind they'd play the background music louder than the dialog, wait they do that...
Is there a way to move the position of the CC Text? I need this and have found the Ad inserts and other info increased to such a degree as to prevent my ability to read the text. T.I.A. PS: I have a VIP 722 NOT (K).
A short time ago on one of the TV forums where I lurk at we were wondering if the show we were attached to was to be canceled. We were told that it made a difference whether we watched the actual show or a DVR copy. The implication was that since at any given time the direct provider, i.e. Dish...
Some time ago I was able to go to a page/s on the Dish Web site and see all of my personal info along with all programs on my HD. I can not find it any longer. Keep mind that I can still get to the original my dish page for billing and packages etc. Anyone know where I was at that time? TIA.
:( I do miss its different kind of lineup, really liked the retro shows and the racing club show from a ranch in Texas. It had a different demographic angle. It was gone within three weeks of my upgrade. I was really disappointed, had got used to watching it in that short time.
:mad:I am deaf in one ear and have 70% loss in the other and this is happening more often and changing the CC set-up isn't much help. It's well-nigh impossible to watch Bloomberg.
Books?
Don't really know except for cost / maintenance issues and downtime. Use replacement concrete ties now for same reason. Laying new concrete base for High-speed lines both rebuilt and new does make sense for same reason. IMO.
