    Dish contract ends 28Apr2024 - any reason to renew?

    Well, when I called to cancel in February and was quite content in doing so, after canceling and "Enjoying a Fabulous Rush of Freedom", she asked as they do, "Is there anything else I can do for you?" I said, "Not unless you can give me back my old pricing that I should still be at prior to the...

    Two Hopper 3 with 10 Joeys

    That's the way I did it for just two H3s. With a 129 wing dish that now has a "For Rent" sign on it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    I just got it on our Leased H3 right when we wanted to start using it at 1:30pm. Although Updates and whatnot are scheduled for 5am, they "Always" wait until we want to use it. Never while it's "sleeping". I'll have to force it on the Owned H3. Otherwise it won't get it. Sent from my iPad...

    Hopper3 Network Question

    I have used Netgear for ages and was a Beta Tester up until recently. I have moved to UniFi and am using a UDMPro with WiFi7 APs. From my years of issues with d¡sh and NG I discovered that both have issues that require special treatment. I too used Reserved IPAs for the d¡sh gear for NG. This...

    Preferred Customer Offer still exist?

    On my reupping if I wanted a 2 year Contract with Price Lock, it'd cost me $50 extra a month. Glad they'd only give me a year. Since I was calling to cancel and was already to do it with no FoMo. I'm leaving at the end of it. We have two H3s and never use them. I'm putting an Outdoor Long Range...

    The 1967 version is "Freakin' Genius!" The back story could be a feature length film itself.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    I have found that with HDR is sometimes it's better when off. But how I tell what's going on, is how "Dynamic Contrast" reacts. Off, Dark & Flat and as I turn it up and it looks better that's true HDR. Better when off and it gets darker as I turn it up, not HDR or the kind where you turn off DC...

    transfer moves from hopper 3 to thumb drive

    I'm using two Orei UHDS-102's (nothing special as far as their product line): 1x2 HDMI Splitter 18G 18Gbps 4K 60Hz, YUV 4:4:4 to share one of my two H3's and a FireTV 4K MAX Gen2 to two Samsung TVs. Of which Samsungs are a pain to plug things into. All kinds of EDID issues. This little, and it...

    Dual HWS issue

    I thought I'd feel the same way when I went to cancel after 28 years of this roller coaster ride. Nope. The second I dialed this wave of relief, for once, came over me. To tell the truth, I was a bit unhappy when I got off the phone and didn't cancel. But they'd only give a year. Otherwise, it'd...

    Alexa Problem

    Nope. I have a UDMPro with over 60 devices on it that are operating as they should. I can cast from my iPad to any of several Samsung TVs and Yamaha AVRs. "She who shall not be named" also talks to me and I answer back. I had to change the voice to the Male Australian so I wouldn't feel bad...

    I wouldn't say that you have to "convince" them. I have found that they do understand tonality. Primarily the "Pissed Off" tone. . . . and you don't have to have a rolled up newspaper. Sent from my S61Pro using Tapatalk

    Alexa Problem

    I've been having issues with "She who shall not be named" and have seen posts asking if "She's" Online in the Dev Forums a lot. And Connection Experience on my UniFi system was really poor for all my parts of "Her" last night. I know at the "Big Fall" event, they discussed that "She's" getting...

    Isn't it just like this stuff?! It'll work, but you have to trick it. I've had to do something like that in the past. I have 7/16 wrenches scattered all over like "Church Keys".
