    OTA signal came back after Hopper 3 reboot. Why?

    I'm seeing something on my H3 w/dual tuner dongle. When I go to an OTA channel use the recall function I get a "attempting to acquire signal" screen that shows the signal strength at 100%. If I do a channel advance to another OTA channel it comes in fine and I can then do a channel back and it...

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    I thought the 4K was a little disappointing also. I was switching between the 4K feed, HD feed on NFL Network, and Network feed from my OTA adapter. The OTA feed seemed to look best to me.

    Hopper 3 Sling with Logitech 650 remote

    I am not a fan of the new shape of the Harmony remotes (950/Elite). I tried one last year when my Harmony One failed. The shape just seemed uncomfortable. I wound up returning it and getting a refurbed Harmony One to replace it.

    I have a Joey 3 running via ethernet to the same switch the Hopper 3 is using Hopper 3-->Ethernet Switch<--Joey 3 I originally had it hooked up via both Coax and ethernet. Then I disconnected the coax, rebooted the Joey and it has been working fine since. Check the IP address on both...

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    OK, I vaguely remember the disc issues. I obviously missed the recall. I guess it is too late to call Pioneer now. :biggrin The unit still plays my LD collection just fine. Got to explain what it was to my 14 yr old daughter and her friends recently.

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    I still have my Pioneer DVL-909 LD/DVD player! One of my favorite pieces of electronics ever! I remember when Netflix started the whole streaming thing. Their initial collection was weak, but they gave it away for free. Then I noticed how they were getting their app installed on every piece of...

    long time dish customer, recent price increase, looking for input...

    Check with a DIRT member here. I had the same issue and reached out to them. While they didn't get me the exact same price I did get a good discount and I think my net increase was about $8/mo. That price is also locked in for another 2-year agreement.

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    HBO being gone really opened my eyes to how little I was watching it. Got the HBO Amazon Prime channel to watch GoT. I check the live feeds all the time and rarely see something I want to watch. Tonight I'll watch the Deadwood movie and then after Chernobyl concludes on Tuesday I think I'm...

    DISH to Acquire EchoStar's BSS Business

    It wouldn't surprise me if this was an organizational thing. All satellite assets are under one subsidiary, and possibly all wireless networking assets under another.

    Can I get some help from DIRT?

    A few months ago I emailed Jasmine and she responded within 24hrs and took care of my renewal requests.

    That's interesting. I had a different experience. I was watching live on TV via Xbox, but as soon as the credit sequence started on my laptop I checked and S8 Ep1 was available. On the Xbox, I backed out of the live feed went to the GoT series and there it was. I was able to pause it several...

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    I've been watching HBO through my Amazon prime account for a month and it is working fine. I watch it on several Amazon Fire TV sticks or my Xbox One via the Prime app. I'll say this, having access to the live HBO feeds it just reminds me how little I was missing since HBO went dark on Dish...

    Until something changes, I guess I'm sticking with DISH

    I was in your exact position a few months ago. My contract with Dish was up and my price lock was expiring. I looked at numerous combinations of OTA and OTT. Before returning to Dish I had tried Spectrum + Tivo and was not happy. (Getting the cable card and tuning adapter was a real pain). As...

    Installation Options (Generally) for Three Story Condo Building

    Yes, it was a sliding window. It was a little skeptical too. It was in the corner where the window meets the frame.

    Installation Options (Generally) for Three Story Condo Building

    They do have the ability to bring the cable into your house without drilling holes. I was in a rented Townhouse for 18 months and they used a flat cable that fit in the window.
