    When did Dish start charging old timers for locals?

    Thanks for taking the time Bobby, appreciate it. I actually have a very good outdoor antenna with rotor but it's near tall old oak trees and especially in the summer (leaves) when the winds blowing at a good clip the signal gets broken up. To reliably get locals I still need them from Dish. This...

    When did Dish start charging old timers for locals?

    Sorry if this is common knowledge. I haven't been around here in awhile. I've had Dish for well over 20 years and have the Top 200 package, a 722K & 722. My locals were always included and I just noticed I'm being charged $10 @ month for 'em. Seems like they started charging for them a long time...

    Sorry guys but I've been out of the loop here for a long time. Just wondering what this "mirroring fees" thing I keep seeing is about? Thanks! Ed

    Problem with Dishanywhere??? HELP!

    I'm trying to use dishanywhere. I had to download new software which seemed to go ok but I end up with a window that says initializing. The "bar" on that window loads but that's all she wrote, can't get it to work--that window just sits there. Thanks guys- Ed

    Max Go on Roku???

    Since I can't find it I assume Max Go is no longer available on Roku. ??? I'm sure I HAD it before but can't even find the app on my Roku. Yeah, I subscribe to Max, actually got it for free.

    Im guessing with the premiums offering stand alone streaming

    Did a chat tonight and got Starz for $5 @ month for 6 months, no problem at all. Of course when the 6 months is up if I still want it it'll still be $5 or I'll cancel. Ed

    NBC. Mouth moves, voice 2 seconds later.

    THANK YOU for posting this! Same problem here on ABC, CBS as well as NBC. Had to adjust A/V synch with my audio receiver sup to 200 ms to make it bearable and it's still not completely synched. You are correct--it's Dish. The problem disappears using my TV's OTA tuner. I've been with Dish for...

    Not happy, being forced to leave Dish.

    That wouldn't have been simpler for me. It would have cost a fortune and ruined my living environment. I've got a number of huge old oak trees. Ed

    Not happy, being forced to leave Dish.

    I had the same problem a number of years ago--lots of trees that grew to make WA completely unreliable. I called, explained the problem and they sent a tech out to install EA at NO CHARGE. I was lucky though that my locals switched to EA shortly thereafter and in the meantime I was for able to...

    New install issue with low signal

    Like Claude said--55 on Eastern Arc is good. I'm also on EA and in Michigan. Most of mine hover a bit above or below 50 and I only lose signal when it POURS and then it's not gone for long. Ed

    Poor PQ from Dish on Demand???

    Content that I view from Netflix, Amazon, Vudu looks outstanding. Just about anything recent honestly looks like bluray and that's on up to a 120" screen. I have no need or desire for a Hopper either. With the use of HDMI splitters, EHDs & mirroring my 722 & 722K feed 5 HD TVs & 2 HD projectors...
