    Funding a Dish 5G Network: Speculation About a Major Disruptive Partner

    Looked at buying into a new subdivision and found what is happening here in SWFL with new subdivisions that there there is no "cable" TV. They run 1Gig fiber to the house (no caps) and the cost of internet is included with the HOA fees. As an owner you can use any streaming service provider and...

    WINK-TV, channel 11, the Fort Myers, FL CBS affiliate has been removed from DISH

    Yes, they brought it back supposedly because of the pandemic. Like most people, guess they have run out of patients waiting for it to be over and pulled it again. :)

    The station is owned by the McBride family and their Fort Myers Broadcasting Company, making it one of a handful of TV stations today to have locally-based ownership. This thread is about Nexstar right?

    Just look on the Solid Signal website. Took about 15 seconds to google them and look for myself. Might be able to pick one up cheaper on eBay.

    Or Dish will just clam that they own your owner receiver. Just went through that when I cancelled Dish. Luckily I still had the receipt and had to get the president's office involved to get it straightened out.

    AirTV Dual Tuner Adapter - UPDATED Review

    If you are getting a 100% signal reading on channels it could be the signal is too strong. This is not an uncommon issue even before everything going digital. The Dish rtuner may be more sensitive to strong signals.

    Nexstar dispute looming...

    The last station that was blanked out was 26-01 which was a Scripts station. It has back for a number of months. We have guide data for all of the Big 4 networks. So, it appears that we can't just go by that data list.

    Dish Liability?

    Same as if you have a skylight installed in your roof and years later it leaks. Or trim/ weather stipping around your windows or doors. Or your sink leaks and damages your floor.

    Dish Liability?

    IMHO, contact your homeowners insurance company and have them cover it. I doubt Dish will cover it. Your only chance may be if you can provide proof that the installer insisted it be installed that way and you can prove that the install was defective.

    As a seller it is very easy for a buyer to deal with seller fraud. You file a case on-line saying the item was not as described and want to return it for a refund. The seller IS REQUIRED to issue a prepaid label for return of the item. Once the shipping number shows the item has been received by...

    Just last like year the games will be produced natively in 1080p 60fps HLG and up-converted to 4K 2160p 60fps. Meaning they’re actually shot in 1080p HDR, but delivered via a 4K feed. https://thestreamable.com/news/fubotv-fox-app-to-stream-thursday-night-football-in-4k-during-2020-season

    He must be talking about buyers. Those that return items and the seller gets a box of rocks or an item that was obviously damaged or replaced with a used item.

    I emailed executive customer support and they looked into it. This receiver had never been activated before I got it and is not reported stolen. They rescinded the requirement that I send the receiver back. Happy about that but not happy that I had to go through this.

    It was purchased over 3 years ago. Way past any time that makes eBay remotely responsible. I still say that if it was stolen that Dish would never have activated it. Just because they have no record of it be sold, being leased or anything else, does not mean it is stolen or obtained illegally...

    I did and that did not fix the issue. They claim their records show this receiver has never been sold to anyone so it must have been stolen.

Along with Netflix and Prime I have found I only watch a few other channels. I have settled on Sling TV with the Blue subscription whic have all of the channels...
