    Thinking of getting Directv - Few Questions Regarding Equipment

    The recent I ran across taking about AT&T selling off DTV. Not that long ago. A little off topic, so I’ll end with this. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bizjournals.com/dallas/news/2020/11/04/att-directv.amp.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thinking of getting Directv - Few Questions Regarding Equipment

    With DTV just being purchased by another company, IMHO, I would steer towards Dish. That being said, and a disclaimer, I personally have my Dish on pause while evaluating YouTubeTV towards being a future cord cutter. [emoji2371] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DirecTV may Buy D!SH...

    I think of it in terms of why would ATT buy a surging company, and cut loose a dying company that they squeezed out every drop they could squeeze. That seems more big-company realistic to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DirecTV may Buy D!SH...

    That will definitely cut-the-cord time for me. ATT customer service is horrendous. 12yrs with DTV and 2yrs with Dish, there is just no comparison. Dish operation is also more simplistic. As said, this ever happens, I’m gone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Quick question on SiriusXM music channels

    Side note: noticed on the Jeep radio today that ClassicVinyl changed to the Eagles channel and DeepTracks changed to Led Zeppelin channel. I’m in heaven!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Leaving for streaming

    Yes, please let us know your results. I’m considering pushing pause on Dish to test streaming before a final decision. The final decision for me is.....happy wife, happy life.

    How to send a rehit to your receivers yourself

    This is what I’ve done for nearly two years. Wally is in our Motorhome so we deactivate during storage and reactivate when we start rolling. Have never had to call Dish to get it going. Always just wake it up. Also, before we start rolling, I usually bring it in the House, hook it up where the...

    Channel 540, 4k

    See previous post. I have 150 and I have all the 4K channels. So, maybe the 150 pack minimum? [emoji2369]

    MORE guide issues, programs NOT recording.

    After the upgrade, everything I typically do/use/record seems to be back to normal. Killed the separate recording timers and put back the ones relying on the NEW in the guide. So, working so far. Also, Joey updated and seems A-OK.

    U544

    Anyone know details on the new version? I just upgraded to U543 couple days ago and my APV app worked ok, but I had some recordings get missed. After lengthy discussions on another forum, seems a guide issue. Just wondering if the newer upgrade addresses anything like that. BTW, mines...

    MORE guide issues, programs NOT recording.

    Follow up: Saw U544 software was available. I was on U543. The biggie for U543 was addition of Amazon Prime Video. Also read on other forums where some other “things” seemed strange with U543. Like remote 54.0 buttons not working like before. Anyway, mines currently upgrading to U544. Maybe...

    MORE guide issues, programs NOT recording.

    I appreciate your feedback but we’re all having the same issues..programs not recording and the guide may be the issue. And you want us to individually contact tech support, when we’re all having the same issues? It would seem to me it’d be more expeditious for Dish to touch base with a couple...

    MORE guide issues, programs NOT recording.

    I had a program that didn’t record tonight. MSNBC, 8:00-9:00PM Central time. We just had a big discussion about this very recording topic. Search for Lester Holt not recording as a reference. Anyway, it didn’t record tonight (Tues), so I started looking when it WAS going to record. Looking for...

    NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt Shows as not New

    Got it by scheduling Saturday show for WEEKLY. Then scheduling Monday’s show for MON-FRI Two timers for now. I’ll redo whenever they get the guide fixed. Anyone with an idea when that happens? Nightly? Within a week? Whenever? [emoji2369]

    NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt Shows as not New

    Just looked at my DVR and nope, Lester didn’t record here either. Central IL. Changed timer to new/reruns. Didn’t show up in the schedule either.

    Asking for a friend

    Rereading some of this thread, if he’s concerned about one going out and the other still doing everything just like the other...well, the Joey depends on the Hopper. Joey is not a stand-alone device. If the Hopper goes caput, the Joey will not receive like the Hopper. Others can correct me if...

    Asking for a friend

    Other than cost, I don’t understand where the tuner limitation comes into play. If you have 5 tuners and only use 2-3 or if you have 16 tuners and only use 2-3, it seems the same to me. Like I said, other than the cost of different models, tuners are use them or not type things. [emoji2369]

    Hopper 3 upgrade

    It’s like they don’t care if they’re bleeding customers. Makes me wonder what I’m going to go through come 4/2020 when our 2-yr contract runs out. What’ll make it harder is I really love the Hopper3/Joey3 combo. 16 tuners and the UI interface makes all the difference to me. Had DT for 12 years...

    Hopper, Joey, Wally combo?

    Thanks everyone. Well explained.
