    My Sling Adaptor is Smoking!

    The power adapter for my Sling Classic almost caught fire from running too hot. I though that was what you were speaking of.

    Wintering in Arizona

    Sounds like you were receiving Chicago in Arizona? It is illegal for Dish to sell you Chicago locals in Arizona. Are you getting any locals right now?

    Just switched from Dish Network to DirecTV.... One man's feelings

    Dish lost me in 2004 for very similar reasons. They wanted an exhorbitant amount to get me from SD to HD. I moved to D* 7 years ago and have had Premier vs. AEP ever since. A little over $100/month for nearly 7 years means Dish lost out on over $8,400 in revenue because they couldn't shave...

    Dish Radio

    AM radio at night is pretty bad in my house. Most of our local stations drop their power and there aren't alot of strong signals booming in down here. Maybe the same for the OP.

    Simple solution...ivi - Watch Live Internet Television

    So Tired of Dish Networks games ......

    The CTL change makes sense. CTL is in the process of taking over Qwest (whcih has been a strong DirecTV partner for many years).

    Convince Me That Dish is Better

    Yaz' suggestion is a good one. Claude will find you the best possible deal with Dish. When dealing with Dish directly, you sometimes end up with overseas help who don't clearly understand your needs. DirecTV may also shun you because of the issues on your credit. They may make it more...

    MLB.TV/ ROKU Player (Not till later )

    If I knew the PQ was going to be this good, I would not have renewed EI on DirecTV. Nice job ROKU!

    Any hint of MLB EXTRA INNINGS coming to Dish?

    PlayON has added MLB.TV to its lineup. You can use the software on your PC to stream MLB.TV to your PS3 or XBox360.

    DISH Buying TIVO?

    I like Sling less since Dish bought them. Tech support is not very friendly anymore.

    MLB.TV/ ROKU Player (Not till later )

    Yes you can. As long as nobody is using your MLB.TV account at home on the ROKU. Since the ROKU is so small, why not take it with you? It does wireless. PlayON is in Beta with MLB.TV. Currently, you can view any game from last year. I get stutters every minute or two on my PS3, but it's...

    DISH Buying TIVO?

    Or, as Joe Biden would say, a really big ****** deal.

    Senate Fails To Pass Satellite Extension Extension

    DirecTV has a special channel up on 363. It says I'm not authorized to view the channel, but the info says "Important call to action for Kentucky distant signal subscribers".

    Senate Fails To Pass Satellite Extension Extension

    ??? Why is unemployement insurance tied to the satellite bill? Same reason guns in parks was tied to the credit card bill? Credit Card Bill Allows Guns in National Parks The only way to make true progress is to require that these amendments cannot be attached to bills that are not related...

    Senate Fails To Pass Satellite Extension Extension

    This doesn't make sense. I get local guide data for an un-subbed HR10-250 via DirecTV. I know it's a different company but wouldn't the rulese be the same for both? Sounds like another white lie to me.

    Left DISH in 07, Looking to Come Back

    Can you record a program while watching something else with a 612? I assumed the middle number was the amount of tuners...maybe I'm wrong.

    Left DISH in 07, Looking to Come Back

    Bummer. Those EQ fees add up too quickly for me. I hope they reverse course on that someday. It would be about $40/month more plus the outlay for EQ just to switch. I think I'll just survive with FM radio. "For the money, for the glory, and for the fun... mostly for the money. "

    Left DISH in 07, Looking to Come Back

    I also am considering a move back to Dish. The SonicTap does not appear to be something I care to live with. I am an MLB fan and I'm going to test drive the MLB.TV on ROKU solution to see if that will be permanent. The biggest stumbling block for me is equipment. I currently lease 4 HD DVRS...

    Im unplugging my phone lines on 2/1

    Been a while since I was with Dish Network. Back in the day, I wasn't geographically close to where I subbed so I was concerned about calling in. I also wanted caller ID. I simply put in a few strange symbols for the "prefix" in the settings. This allowed me to keep the line connected while...

    ATSC agrees. No more loud commercials.

    There is a God! I am so tired of adjusting the volume watching TV while my wife sleeps. It is, as best, very annoying.
