    From DISH about Locals

    Are you serious? I can spend $120 month for Starlink and $75 month for YouTube TV for a total of $195 month. Or, I can spend $80 month for DISH and $20 month for the lame cellular hotspot I have for browsing at a total of $100 month.

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

    I said a long time ago that receiver fees are the only fair way to handle it. If they didn't charge receiver fees, then they would increase the programming subscription cost to make up for that revenue. Why should I have to subsidize people who have three, four, or five receivers when I only...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Not a chance. The people who know everything are sitting at home in their underwear posting on SatGuys, not out making billion dollar deals.

    Dish Policy Question

    Where are you located? Maybe someone here on SatGuys would do it for you. I'd be glad to if you're in my area and I don't have to go over 10' up.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I don't claim to have insider information...................but, I know for a fact that DISH will be up and running at least until December of 2025 because I just entered into a two year contract with them. ;)

    Anybody knows what model this could be?

    And, back then, it probably really was America's Top 60 channels.

    Anybody knows what model this could be?

    On the left side of the box it says........... MPEG2 Digital Satellite Receiver 18" Dish Assembly Universal Remote Control ????/Microwave Amplifier What does it say above that? These items also needed? Package includes?

    Hacking Seen this Morning

    This may not be associated with DISH at all. I get messages some times from my Sony TV which are overlaid on the DISH programming, often when the TV loses wifi connection. Do you have any usb devices plugged into the TV? Remember, just because they call it a smart TV doesn't...

    Dish Store

    Every time Solid Signal sells one, that's one that Charlie just sold. That's where Solid Signal gets them. On the one hand you say customers are flocking away from DISH. On the other, you're suggesting there's a big market for Hoppers. Those two thoughts contradict each other. I think DISH...

    Dish Store

    As a child, I spent hundreds of hours perusing the Sear's catalog. I never felt guilty about not buying anything. I guess I'm part of the reason they went bankrupt. :)

    Preferred Customer Offer still exist?

    I don't think it helps to threaten to cancel, unless you actually intend to follow through. I've seen others do that and they called their bluff. I always just call and pleasantly ask them to find the best deal they can for me. I usually end up getting the same deal I had last time, plus a...

    How to setup OTA (Over-The-Air) Antenna -Tuner To A Wally

    The OTA device does not use HDMI, it uses USB of which the Wally has two. I use one USB for the OTA tuner and one for the hard drive so that I can use the Wally for a DVR. The satellite locals cost an extra $12 month on the Top 250 package, unless you are on some kind of special offer contract...

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Is it possible that you are watching OTA but recording a Sat channel at that time and the Sat channel lost signal, thus you got the message? I think that's happened to me a couple of times during rain storms. If it's really windy outside, maybe the Sat dish is moving a bit.

    Wally & Dish playmaker

    Does the Playmaker give an option of choosing Eastern Arc or Western Arc? Does it give an option of choosing the 110 and the 61.5 sats together? I thought the Playmaker was Western Arc only.

    Dish hacked again or closed?

    DISH must have paid the ransom this time.

    It has to move to switch to another satellite. It can only focus on one satellite at a time.

    OTA channel guide not populating.

    DISH is already paying for the guide data. It's a matter of making sure that it is assigned to the proper channel. This has been demonstrated several times here on SatGuys through a member here who got it done for a number of channels. DISH certainly can control that if they choose. If...

    OTA channel guide not populating.

    This is a horrible response from a DISH rep. Of course it's their responsibility. They build the hardware to incorporate OTA into a customer's viewing experience. They not only offer, but encourage their customers to use the OTA capability. They've even provided adapters and antennas to...
