    Big4 - Bakersfield, CA

    My apologies. I simply don't believe he's looking for help, otherwise why decline it so many times? He's looking for validation of his pet theory. It was the "yeah yeah, that's what Dish said too" that pushed my buttons. Perhaps I'm wrong and would LOVE to be proven so. There is help here if he...

    It *is* still fairly early on the West coast. He might still be having coffee. "Yeah yeah, patience, how long will THAT take?" -Ed Gruberman

    Big4 - Bakersfield, CA

    Well at least we now know the reason he can't answer a simple question, asked multiple times. He would find out the real problem and get it fixed. Where's the fun in THAT?

    It's been nice ride...

    Yes, you have. AND you have been paying too much for it. When I left Dish for an alternative, I cut my bill to a little over a third. Not BY a third. TO a third. Do I get fewer channels? Obviously but I still get the ones I want. And what's more, there aren't 30 of the same damn shopping channel...

    Sinclair warns of 112 channels being dropped by DISH next Monday (8/16)

    Well I guess you will never know then, because that ain't happening.

    If only he had responded to people trying to troubleshoot in the first place. Would probably be solved by now.

    ..you'll be creating a fourth thread to discuss the same issue? Pretty much expected it. Didn't expect you'd stop at 4.

    Sinclair warns of 112 channels being dropped by DISH next Monday (8/16)

    Enough. Only Sinclair can take the channels away. Only Dish can flip the switch that directs signal to the satellite. I would say this isn't rocket science, but the satellites weren't put there by unicorns. That said, this really isn't that difficult to understand.

    Fake news, Sinclair employee #873990, but thanks for the laugh.

    Dish & The Big4

    Without going into detail, if there were an easy way to tell a browser (let's use Chrome as an example) to assume a given location, purely for testing purpose (you ARE a developer, right?), one could then use that browser. No VPN needed.

    Sinclair warns of 112 channels being dropped by DISH next Monday (8/16)

    Didn't someone already do that, just not Dish and Sinclair? I want to say it was Viacom and I can't remember the other party, but Viacom decided they had too many channels for someone to ever say no, until someone said no. Turns out nobody gave a damn and Viacom eventually caved. This is why...

    Was getting Local Channels from OTA, that were not in my DMA

    Which one was in play in the time period specified? Not to be pedantic or anything.

    I believe Dish just because of the way contracts work in general, carriage agreements in particular. Dish simply doesn't have the option to pull channels.

    Thank you for starting another thread to let us know, rather than reply to those trying to help you.

    I am usually the first in line for a good pedantry, but there are limits. Remembering details from 4 decades ago, or being fuzzy on them, is well beyond the point. Also, WTIC-TV - Wikipedia

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

    I would view a Dish/Directv "non-profit" the same way I would view a Ferengi non-profit. Keep an eye on your wallet, because they sure are.
