    Bar in Chicago with Dish?

    Actually for reasons that make no sense to anyone, Comcast is not carrying Pac12 in this market (or DC for that matter). When I moved in June I added Comcast TV to my internet package (in addition to being a Premier/NFL ST/NBA LP/MLB EI customer at Direct for years) to cover myself for EXACTLY...

    Bar in Chicago with Dish?

    Looks like Dish is the only option for me to watch tonight's Arizona/Oklahoma State football game on Pac12 Net here in Chicago. Anyone here know of any bars that have Dish instead of Direct or Comcast where I might be in luck tonight?

    "Moving" - Ceil 2 question

    This is good news, but will it last? Are they done moving cities to Spots or could Chicago be the next to go?

    Having trouble with Sat 110 TP 3

    I did check this one for drift, and it appears to be fine. I'm getting a signal strength of 30 on 110 tp 11. Could my dish itself need a bit of an adjustment?

    Having trouble with Sat 110 TP 3

    Sorry to rehash the topic, but I finally got around to replacing the LNB with a brand new, identical unit and I'm still having this issue. Most transponders on the 110 sat are giving me a strength of around 30, while transponder 3 is still below 10. Any channels on that transponder are still not...

    Having trouble with Sat 110 TP 3

    It does indeed say I have LNB drift on 110. Is there anything I can do to correct short of getting a new LNB? I have nothing blocking my dish, its a clear day and ideal conditions.

    Having trouble with Sat 110 TP 3

    I have noticed lately anytime I try to go to a channel on Sat 110, Transponder 3 I get a no signal screen. This is the only transponder I'm having this issue with. The others on the 110 satellite have low signal levels, but I seem to get those channels fine. I have a 522 hooked up to a DP Twin...

    "Moving" Oddity

    I had a similar experience when I "moved" from Chicago back to Phoenix a while back. I was not getting Phoenix locals, but was getting Phoenix RSN. I was not getting Chicago RSN but was getting Chicago locals in the 7000 range, however they weren't mapped down. It seemed to me as simple as the...

    Why No HD For March Maddness!!!

    KPHO here in Phoenix is airing all of the NCAA games on its digital subchannels. So far I have not seen them air any HD, although KOLD in Tucson, which is also using it's subchannels for extra NCAA games, is airing HD on 13-1. I find it odd KPHO can't do HD on 5-1. Any other markets have similar...

    Is my 522 dying?

    Forgive me in advance for the wordy post. I'm going to be as specific as possible to see if anyone can help. Last night upon coming home to watch something recorded on my 522, there were no recordings listed in the "My recordings" section. On top it said I had 14+ hours of available space to...

    Custom MLB Spring Training Schedule for Sports Pack Subscribers

    It's worth adding that the Mets games listed on here on "CW11" as Local Broadcast Only are avaialble on WPIX if you have the Superstations pack. These are not blacked out.

    DISH improperly zooming on letterboxed SD NBC broadcasts in Chicago

    Watching the Thursday night comedies from WMAQ on the DVR today, I noticed the same thing as the OP. The zoom is incredibly annoying, and it isn't on my end. Every other channel, including the other locals, look fine. Is this worth a call to Dish, or is it just something we have to live with?

    muzak audio quality

    I haven't listened to the mono Muzak channels in forever, but I just listened to 966 (used to be Eurobeat, no idea what they're calling it now) and it sounded great. Just like all of the Sirius music channels, of which I listen to all the time. I'm listening to the Sirius 128kbps webstream right...

    San Francisco locals

    I know the big 4 locals from San Francisco are offered by an "independent" company ConUS if you get waivers, but if I "move" to an address that gets SF locals will I get them? I am not in the SF spotbeam...

    Sirius Channels a la carte?

    Oh, I already am a Sirius sub in the car, but the sound quality on E* is so much better, that's why I wanted to keep it. Plus there are a few shows on Sirius I record on the DVR to listen to later. If I'm free of a contractual commitment, is there any good way I can get a CSR to make Sirius a la...

    Sirius Channels a la carte?

    I'm thinking about downgrading my E* service but I don't want to cancel completely because I like the Superstations and Sirius music channels. I'm currently on AT250, so I'm curious if I can go to Family Pack and add the Superstations and Sirius music a la carte? Or do I have to keep my...

    and again yet another 'moving' question

    Upgrade and "move?" Long time lurker, first time poster.:) I'm thinking about upgrading to the 622 and having the install done by Dish. I already get my HD locals OTA, so I'd really like to "move" to Chicago for my Cubbies on Fox Saturday baseball. My questions: Chicago HD locals are...
