I cancelled about a week ago. UPS delivered the shipping box for the HWS and it's going out today. The CSR I got made quick work my cancellation request even after he mentioned that I was a 20 year customer. So it depends on who you get. Mine made it quick and I didn't have to endure a long...

I went ahead and cancelled Dish this morning. It wasn't an easy decision after being with them for 20 years. They do have a great product, but by switching to a streaming service I can save $35 a month. I am retiring in a year, so I am trying to cut expenses where I can. The CSR asked why I...

For the Flex Pack, the $5 increase is 13.15%. So while $5 may not sound like much, percentage wise it is extremely high. In anticipation of cancelling my Dish service due to this price increase, I purchased a Fire TV Recast (on sale for $130) and plan to try Philo for $20 a month. If it works...

This increase will push me to cancel dish after many years. Everything we watch we could watch on Philo for $20 a month. I am on the Flex Pack and I get locals via my antenna.

I had a similar problem trying to get the remote to control my Vizio soundbar. Vizio isn't listed in the list of makes when setting up the remote, so I tried the learning mode and that didn't work either. A few days later I needed to switch inputs on the soundbar using the Vizio remote but I...

They sent me a free 54.0 remote. I tried it, but it doesn't list Vizio as a brand for auxillary audio devices. I have a Vizio sound bar. So I tried the learning mode and that didn't work - it wouldn't "learn" volume control or mute, no flashing button to tell me it learned it. So I will stick...

Thanks boba for the suggestion. I don't see me buying more Dish equipment. If I purchased anything it would be a Fire TV Recast or Tablo, and if I did that I would cancel Dish and subscribe to a streaming service such as Philo.

Apparently that is the case. I think OTA channels were an afterthought on the Hopper. But with all of the broadcast disputes and increasing fees, being able to receive OTA on Hoppers is increasingly important, at least it is to me.

I tried changing the direction of the antenna but sadly it didn't work. Maybe the Dish programmers can enhance the OTA software to allow us to manually add channels that didn't scan in. That would be a big plus.

I will try Tampa8's suggestion of temporarily changing the direction of the VHF antenna and doing a rescan this weekend. I tried bumping the pre-amp down to the low setting but that didn't work.

I agree, Dish needs to have channel selection abilities similar to Tivo and Tablo. As for swinging the antenna around, I don't think that will work because channel 8 and the other 2 VHF channels are all in the same direction.

Nope. On my LG TV I can manually add or delete any channel, but not on Dish HWS. I don't think Hopper 3 does either, but I don't know that for sure.

Hello everyone. I live in a deep fringe area but with a lot of effort and expense I am able to receive OTA channels. Two channels are broadcast on both high VHF and UHF from different towers. The UHF signal strength and quality is much better than the VHF, but the Dish channel scan always...

I don't know about the Tivo, but I can tell you the AirTV dual tuner adapter isn't as sensitive as my LG TV. Supposedly the AirTV adapter is made by the same company (Lark) as the new Dish dual tuner. The AirTV adapter does work on my HWS and it seems to be more stable than the old Dish dual...

I don't have any Prime Time activated and I don't subscribe to locals, but my OTA recordings allow auto hop just fine.

Mine gets hot too. So I make sure it is getting air on all sides, to dissipate as much heat as possible. I am disappointed with the sensitivity of this tuner as well. My 2016 LG TV not only picks up more channels, they are much more stable using the LG tuner. With the Dish tuner I regularly...

I received an e-mail from Dish today saying the CUI will be downloaded to my HWS on June 8th. Or, I could download it sooner if I press the blue button. So, like it or not, the new interface is coming to a Hopper near you!

I am using it with my HWS that does not have the carbon interface, and it works just fine. The new CUI is not required.

It looks like the seller on Ebay wants $9.90 shipping. I got mine from dishformyrv for $59.99 and free shipping, so it costs less when you factor in the shipping. But if your local dealer has it at a good price, buy local! https://www.dishformyrv.com/dish-wally-over-the-air-tuner/

I got mine from DishForMyRV. Received it just a few days after I ordered it.

Just be aware that in order to get program guide information Dish still requires you to subscribe to locals. I have Flex Pack, and when I dropped locals because I can get them over the air with this adapter, my program info went away. It shows the channels in yellow and you can watch them, but...

Okay, thanks. I went ahead and resubscribed to the locals, and now I am getting the guide info on my OTA channels too. Apparently Dish will not provide the guide info for OTA channels unless you subscribe to the locals. The tech I chatted with didn't seem to think it was required, so maybe...

Thanks. Are you subscribed to the locals from Dish? I had programming info until I dropped the locals. I have also noticed the OTA adapter runs a bit warm, and doing a channel scan misses channels it picked up before (so I cancel so as to not lose access).

I chatted with Dish tech support and they had me unplug the receiver, wait 15 seconds, plug it back in. That causes the guide to download. But the OTA program guide info is still missing. The channels are there, just no logo or info. So they have referred this to "engineering" for a software...

I certainly hope we are not forced to subscribe to locals just to get guide information for the OTA channels. I will be one unhappy camper if that is the case. I have rebooted my receiver (HWS) to see if that will help. No change so far.
