I do not agree, turning up the compression or moving split dma's to a Superdish is a good the solution to ending 2 dish local's for some markets, no one wants their locals on satellite to start looking like streeming video. Moving 2-dish locals to a SuperDish would be very costly and disruptive to subs, not a good solution. The best solution is to re-shufle locals and place as many as possible on spotbeams, those dma's pushed off of the spotbeams would then move to the wings (all of a dma's locals), but this could not be done over night, it would take time.
However with E10 being launched with 45+ spotbeams next year and a 3rd up-link center also being added, this should provide plenty of capacity to place all split markets on a spotbeam and no other alternative solution should be necessary. Although I do not agree that Charlie could do a 1 dish solution today, I do agree that 18 months should be sufficient time for the phasing out of 2-dish dma's and Charlie is still whining.

Charlie would like you to think there is but there isn't.
Infact he could have a solution in place today if he wanted to. (By adding those wing channels on the spot beams and turning the compression up in those areas a little more) Or by uplinking all the wing locals to a SuperDish slot.
Charlie saying he needs more time, is just Charlie whining like he always does. And if congress throws Charlie a bone you can bet he will take it.

Does someone still have the diagram showing how to connect two Hopper 3s again?
I currently have one H3 and one 4K Joey, set up through a 1000.2 eastern arc hybrid lnb and solo hub.
The plan is to replace the Joey with the second H3. Already purchased a duo hub and I have three coax cables coming in from outside, from back when I used to have the older 1000.4 dish and the hopper 2. I don't fully remember, but I think the other two coax cables are just tied up next to the dish outside; will have to check again.

Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?

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 know HipKat said that they were working on conversions but we got the official news yesterday right from Dish that starting next month all DMA's will be on the western arc, and all customers will be assigned to that. That's gonna mean a lot of customers around here aren't gonna get Dish unless there are exceptions. Too many mountains and trees.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

It's dead, they just don't know it yet. They killed it by forcing DRM on it, and that TOTALLY botched implementing it.
There is absolutely NO compelling reason for anybody to switch to ATSC3.0. They only want it as a total and complete money grab.

WHAT ABOUT THE INTERNET PART OF IT. NO ONE WANTS A BOX CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET EITHER.
