    Cable And Satellite Providers Required To Disclose “All In” Pricing Under Newly Passed FCC Rules

    Are all the taxes and government surcharges considered "junk fees?" Adds $6.11 to my bill.

    What’s keeping you guys with Dish Network…

    Scott were you using VPN or didn't need one? I never use a VPN, I have Norton VPN because I use their internet security and it comes with it. I hear commercials all the time for different VPN's. So I must have just done it wrong. I think some people use it all the time, but the few times I...

    What’s keeping you guys with Dish Network…

    Hmmm...I tried using Dish Anywhere to watch NFL playoffs last year while in Dominican Republic at a wedding. Could not connect even with Norton VPN enabled.

    Preferred Customer Offer still exist?

    I called the number that Clark Gable provided. The Colorado based CSR went through my options for programming changes (from 250) and turns out there isn't a way to save money lowering packages and doing addons to get all the channels we watch. I was offered $10 off a month for 24 months and I...

    Preferred Customer Offer still exist?

    So if I just go to the price lock on My Dish and agree to the 2 year price lock and submit, I get two years without an increase, but if I call in I could get a 2 year discount plus price lock? The only choices I have under my offers are My Gift Cards, Shop for internet and Price Lock.

    Here we go again, Hearst tv group is gone

    It seems both satellite companies are in bad financial straights and they keep getting held up at gunpoint by the media conglomerates for outrageous increases. Don't the conglomerates know the goose is dying? Nobody is asking them to give it away for free, but come on! My bill is pushing $200...

    Here we go again, Hearst tv group is gone

    With DISH and my Fox has been out since February. I get it reasonably good with my 14 foot Winegard HD8200. I don’t think they’re even negotiating anymore. I assume they’re asking for a King’s Ransom like most of the stations do these days. My advice- get an outdoor antenna designed to pick up...

    Ground Loop Via COAX

    I installed my first dish with DISH back in 97 and it was grounded. DISH has installed every subsequent dish and I'm not sure how many that is now, but none of their installs were grounded. Couldn't OP just disconnect the ground and see if that solves it? At least then he would know.

    Cox Media Group Removes Local Channels From DISH

    Thanks for the input. I have this antenna for VHF and this antenna for UHF combined with this preamp. My antennas are aimed by bringing a TV up on the roof and adjusting the antennas based on the signal strength meter on the TV that has all the channels scanned into it already. My frustration...

    Tips For Using OTA Tuner with Hopper 3

    So for Saturday's game weather was cloudy but no precipitation and the Fox signal was rock solid never a blip. The game of course was awful. Sunday for the Cowboys - 49ers game it was snowing here to beat the band and the signal was really breaking up. I tried watching it for a little while...

    Tips For Using OTA Tuner with Hopper 3

    So I took the OTA tuner from the H3 and disconnected it then did a hard reboot. I took the second tuner I had and connected it and the H3 recognized it and did another reboot and when it came back up I went to the OTA in settings and did a scan and this time I scanned 32 channels and this time...

    Tips For Using OTA Tuner with Hopper 3

    I have two of these. One is currently installed. I am planning to remove the one installed and do a hard reset and then install this one and see if the results get any better.

    Tips For Using OTA Tuner with Hopper 3

    Does it really make sense for DISH to push everyone toward OTA because they think they are helping beat the greedy conglomerates that bought up all the network stations, and then produce an OTA module that is about the worst OTA tuner on the market, that a $100 Vizio 24 inch TV tuner craps all...
