Well it has turned off nice here the last couple of days and since I had some success with the co-rotor II on my Home Brew Dish, I thought I would turn my attention to the test dish I have been waiting on the welder to deliver a piece of the mount for. 
This morning, I pulled out my Perfect 10 ten footer, and started putting it together. I assembled the mount, ring, reflector and support arms all myself. I asked my daughter to help me put the reflector on the mounting ring.
This dish is going to be used for me to test LNBs, polorotors, co-rotors, actuators, and receivers. I am going to start with the big honking co-rotor from the Big Dish Bone Yard thread.
The last time you saw this dish, I didn't have very good success with it. I was using the Low Count actuator, and it just wasn't accurate enough. Well I have pulled it out of moth balls and am ready to give a second go.
It has a brand new ring-mount, new base plate, all new bolts, and new support arms. The reflector has a few dings, but it should work well as a testing dish.
As you can see in the pictures below, I have this dish and the toy parked very close together. I am going to hang a sign on the back side which faces the street. "Legal Free To Air Satellite Sales, Service, and Installation". That ought to generate some inquiries.
I will soon have a GI-650 with a DSR-905 piggy-backed to it, and a couple of DVB receivers setup in my showroom hooked to a TV, so that I can show people just what you can get.

Well Lynskyn, you were right!!
This is an outstanding dish. Kinda wish I had it on the roof to replace my 7.5 footer for the 4DTV, though that one is doing a great job too.
I got everything wired up yesterday, and set the elevation. Didn't adjust the declination yesterday, because I wanted to get an idea where I was. Popped on the handy-dandy tuner, and turned it on. Bumped East about 5 clicks and had CW on 91W C-Band.
Played around with it a while just getting the feel of the arc. Got 12060 V test cards on 91W at 45% SQ.
Today, I went out there armed for bear and put the digital level on the main axis and set it for 39.6 precisely, and strapped on a flat piece of steel on the back of the dish to set the declination at 5.4 precisely. That jumped up the 12060 V 91W to 60 % SQ. Swung East to AMC6 at 72W and had "the mux" at 90% SQ. Swung west, and could barely get C-Band on G13 127W, and no Ku on G18 at all. Moved back to G13, and pulled up on the front of the dish and got much better signal, so I swung the dish assembly just a tad to the West, back side to the East, and boom, had LCN booming in for having 1/3 of the dish blocked by the toy.
Moved back to 91W and had the 12060 at 75% SQ. Moved back to AMC6 and had 12053V at 99% SQ.
This antique Co-Rotor is doing an outstanding job. I haven't had to touch the in and out Focal Length since I set it yesterday according to the factory specs.
I've got White Springs at 75% with half the dish blocked.
The Equity stations on G18 11720 are only at 45%. They don't like having any of the dish blocked.
The H stations are booming, but the V stations aren't all that great. Has Equity turned the power down since G18 moved into place?
Anywho, I'll probably spend a little more time on it in the morning tuning, and then wire it into the showroom and start testing things.
BTW, the C-Band LNB is a Cal-Amp Mini-Mag 30K, and the Ku LNB is an old-style (with an elbow built in) Chaparral .6db for those interested.
Don't know whether it's the dish, or the antique Co-Rotor, but you would have to pry them both out of my cold dead hands now.

Hi jsattv,
I would have to go back and re-read all your most recent threads to see where you are before I could give any advice on what you should do at this point.
I learn something new every day about the best way to tune these babies. Like the flat piece of steel I used on the back ring of the dish to set the declination. I couldn't find any place decent to check the declination, so I decided to make one, and it turned out very well.
You might want to try that too.
I have the same problem with the Birdviews. There really isn't any decent flat spot to check the declination, so just this evening, I decided to try using the scaler ring on the Birdviews to set the declination since the support arms are solid, and there is no give, it should be the perfect spot.
J
Thanks Linuxman and congratulations on setting up your new 10 Footer. I also seem to remember that Shaun Kenny used a Flat piece of steel on his Video that you recommended to me to measure Inclination or Declination. It also seems to be more accurate when I get a small ladder and measure Inclination and Declination with the Sears Digital Level right up around the middle of the 2 Bars. Thankx for the Tip.

Well I went out after supper and put the final tweak on the whole assembly. I haven't touched the elevation since I set it earlier today with the digital level.
Starting with:
129W G27 11964 H 2920 Ku White Springs, still at 75% SQ half the dish blocked
127W G13 4186 H C-Band is at a consistent 99% SQ with half the dish blocked
123W G18 11720 V Ku still at 45% SQ with a third of the dish blocked
91W G17 3720 H C-Band is a consistent 99% SQ
91W G17 12060 V Ku is now at a consistent 85% SQ
72W AMC 6 12053 V is a steady consistent 99% SQ
I am going to quit tuning. I don't think I can get it any better than that. Maybe I could, but it would be pointless.
This dish/Co-Rotor combo is as outstanding as I have had up besides the Birdviews.

Due to security concerns and the fact that the Tapatalk Plugin for Xenforo is no longer being updated we have removed Tapatalk support from SatelliteGuys.
For those who were using it we recommend using our PWA App instead which is faster and does not have all the spam Tapatalk had. Below is a graphic showing how to add SatelliteGuys to your devices home screen. (While iOS is shown the process is mostly the same for Android.)
Thanks for your understanding.

I have had good experiences with Brave but lately I am frustrated with it.
Now when I launch the app it shows a box at the bottom asking if I want to go back to the last opened page. It is in conveniently located and I would prefer to eliminate it.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Please let's not sidetrack the discussion into an exploration of why I don't care for it or a lecture about all the wonderful aspects of the feature. I just do not care for it.

I don't have an Android phone so I don't know if this will apply to the Brave settings on your android device but it works on the desktop for me.
Change this setting to either startup to a different website or a new tab page. I have mine set to open to google.com instead of where I left off and it doesn't ask me at the next startup if I want to open the last opened page unless it crashed.

Hello everyone.
I am new here and I done a search on MLB Extra Innings and DISH and it led me to this forum and so I signed up and hopefully someone can help me out with some issues.
First off, I am a DISH Outdoors customer and I signed up for service back in late October of 2025. I have a Wally HD Receiver and I am using the DISH Playmaker OS 2.1 as my Antenna that operates on 110 and 119 Western Arc and Alternative 61.5, 110, and 119 satellites. I signed up for MLB Extra Innings back in March before the season began. I was excited to be able to watch MLB Extra Innings because I love baseball and I use to have MLB Extra Innings on Satellite DIRECTV back in 2001-2004 and on Satellite DISH back in 2016 and 2017.
I was a bit disappointed when I found out that it is actually MLB.TV Simulcasted to DISH Satellite (More on that later) Anyways I have been watching faithfully almost every night however about a week ago there was a problem. When I went to go to the game to watch a game the game wouldn't come in an I would send a refresh signal to my receiver and then I could watch the programming and when I went to switch games at that games appointed time slot my Wally HD Receiver who lockup where I couldn't change any channels or view the guide and it would reboot. The next night when I turned to a game at game start it still had the background it shows before the game started and again send a refresh signal and went though this same thing over and over. I added a movie channel to my lineup and had issues with showing up my Dish Wally HD Receiver.
With an investigation after several calls with DISH Support it was determined that by going to the diagnostics screen that I had a issue with my Tuner because any changes that I made to my programming these changes would not take affect on the Wally HD Receiver. In other words that Wally HD Receiver was toast!
I too had reported MLB Extra Innings issue to DISH and they created a ticket for it and said that someone would investigate the issue. I too took notice that under MyDISH account under MLB Extra Innings always before it would show that I was subscribed and on auto-renew. Now it shows nothing and even after logging out and deleting my User Name and Password so that I can see it in guest mode it too doesn't even list a price and option for purchase as does the now WNBA League Pass.
After my DISH Receiver was ruined I had to buy a new Wally HD Receiver. I took advantage an bought 2 HD Wally's and added them both to my account. I called back to remove the old box off of the account and was told it was linked to MLB Extra Innings and the advanced technical support team said there was a glitch with MLB Extra Innings and hope to have a resolution in a couple of days and I could call back in to then to remove the box. But both the 2 new Wally HD Receivers are activated on my account. I asked them what the problem was with MLB Extra Innings and how long it would be and I was told there was a glitch as I asked to specify what they meant and got no answer. I again went and checked the MyDISH account page under the MLB Extra Innings page and it still doesn't list me as subscribed and after logging out and deleting my User Name and Password so I could it see it as a guest mode and it still doesn't list the price and option for purchase as it does for the WNBA League Pass.
I am afraid to boot up these boxes and go through the activation screen process because of the issues with the MLB Extra Innings in fear it will do the same or mess up my boxes from being able to receive MLB Extra Inning because or any other programing because I was told that MLB Extra Innings wouldn't come in on those new box because it was activated with the Wally that is ruined and it needs removed first.
Now I have no DISH service going on a week and miss my MLB Extra Innings when the races are just heating up and now with two boxes activated I can't boot up because I am afraid it will mess them up and I will be out the $180.00 or so dollars I made in purchase on the receivers.
Is anyone else experiencing issues with their MLB Extra Innings and does anyone really know what this so called glitch actually is? I can't seem to get a clear answer from anybody and don't even know if it will even be fixed or anyone really understands it.
Now to my previous statement on how I was disappointed that MLB Extra Innings is actually MLB.TV in simulcast. When I had MLB Extra Innings before with DIRECTV in 2001-2004 and with DISH form 2016 and 2017. They would always show the commercials for every teams broadcast from their local market and all games would be authentic just as if you were watching in their home market. After I quit DISH I went to streaming for awhile and I done MLB.TV and I hated their features because of the no commercials, the delayed times of getting back after the commercial break, and not being able to listen to what studios had to say when they would cut into the studios, and always looking at the screen during commercial breaks with a screen that says commercial break in progress and a silhouette background of MLB Players doing baseball things and the their crazy commercial breaks sound. I was excited to go back to DISH thinking I escaped the horrors of MLB.TV. Well its actually the same thing. I compared them side by side and actually MLB.TV is ahead by just a few seconds. So actually MLB Extra Innings on Satellite is delayed from time period wise from actually watching MLB.TV which shows it is simulcasted. My question is when did this start? And is this legal? This isn't what I know MLB Extra Innings to be. I too had signed up for NHL Center Ice this past winter and thank goodness its authentic! They still have the commercials and its like watching it as you were in their home network and its the way it oughta be even if you only do get one feed of NHL Center Ice per team on DISH and don't know which feed it is every night.
Looking forward to your responses. So far happy with DISH but unhappy with this last week and the ruining of a Wally HD Receiver.
I hope I can be of some contribution here as well.
Sincerely,
RJ T.

I know they are doing some major satellite work - the second satellite at 110 which is now in use, and they are moving channels between 119 and 110. Maybe since there are no other sports going on, have they temporarily cut back on the out of market sports packages? I am not sure. It looks like those channels are all coming from 119 TP 13, 110 TP 12, and 110 TP 09.
Also, Dish's Scheduled Satellite Maintenance page doesn't have anything going on:

This is a big shift for DISH. I just hope if Charlie Ergen does ever sell out to anyone that I can continue to use my DISH Playmaker and I can keep my Wally's. If its anything like what happened to DIRECTV a few years back which turned out to be a total disaster when AT&T acquired DIRECTV nothing there changed with boxes or anything and you continued to use the same service but I was very surprised to see AT&T sell it to TPG especially after they had just bought it now long ago.

Trying to get use to this forum and where everything is located at. I saw you responded from my post on the changes and took me a while to get back to see this post. But yes, it is exactly what I was thinking. I too noticed the change of MLB Extra Innings from 110 to 119. Because of 30 teams they have to algin everything. Only other sport going on PPV wise is WNBA League Pass and I do not have a subscription to that but maybe some else who has it can confirm what they done and what satellite and transponders they are on.I know they are doing some major satellite work - the second satellite at 110 which is now in use, and they are moving channels between 119 and 110.

I now have MLB Extra Innings back! Look at the photo! (I did not include full image of the game due to copyright)
Let me just say it was rough! Very rough! And lets just say Charlie Ergen should be ashamed of his customer service team and how they handled this whole issue.
After multiple calls after my last post only to get the run around with answers like there are no refunds on MLB Extra Innings once the season starts, to they are working on it, to accessing my screen and sending multi hits to the box.
All I asked was one simple question remove the MLB Extra Innings which they confirmed I had and reauthorize free of charge. I was given a 1,000 reasons why this couldn't be done.
Well..........
I paid for it myself.... $120.00 current rate and it works!
I called back in to let them know what I done and what I thought of the customer service and told them I needed refunded. I was told they didn't do refunds....
Well again I called back and got someone who refunded the original payment of $150.00 back to my account. A $30 discount for all the hard trouble I went though.
It is now up to you all out there that have MLB Extra Innings to try to get them to do this but I am afraid you are going to have to take your own action and purchase again and beg for a refund or be out the $150.00 originally paid.
Persistence pays off. I don't give up very easily.
You can all go here below to make the purchase if you have any trouble.

I hope it all works well for you! And best of luck to everyone who has it!
I will still be around on this forum. You all sound like a fine group of people! I hope I can contribute more.
Take care!

I now have MLB Extra Innings back! Look at the photo! (I did not include full image of the game due to copyright)
Let me just say it was rough! Very rough! And lets just say Charlie Ergen should be ashamed of his customer service team and how they handled this whole issue.
After multiple calls after my last post only to get the run around with answers like there are no refunds on MLB Extra Innings once the season starts, to they are working on it, to accessing my screen and sending multi hits to the box.
All I asked was one simple question remove the MLB Extra Innings which they confirmed I had and reauthorize free of charge. I was given a 1,000 reasons why this couldn't be done.
Well..........
I paid for it myself.... $120.00 current rate and it works!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I was bewildered with all the new DISH TV "Bonus View" channels, so I put together a web page table with all the info I could find. It's at:
https://anythingpeaceful.org/dishtv/DISH_TV_Bonus_View_Channels.html
Here's a partial screenshot of the table, as sorted by Channel Name. (You can click on a column header to sort.)
If you have any corrections or suggestions, please post here.

One added, one removed. But I think it's really only a name change, with similar (or identical?) programming.
My full list is at: DISH TV "Bonus View" Channels
Thanks to Pat for the alert.
