Make sure you are in the right guide. ALL CHAN.

Pay Sub:
9622 Business TV
9641 Business TV


Included in AT60 or above:

9443 HDTV Demo
9418 PAEC
9416 Good Sam Network
9406 ARTS
9405 Pentagon Channel
580 International Promo channel

Do you get any of the above? They are exclusive to 61.5 or 148


Thans Mark those are very helpful tips. I did a check switch and noticed when it did its aquiring signal thing it did go through 148. I get everyting on your list except 9443. the 9622 and 9641 are in red i guess because I am not a BTV sub.
do i have to call dish about this? is it worth waiting on hold for the demo channel?

(sorry but i had to edit this to say 148 not 61.5 after that last check switch. Is that a problem?)

Demo channel is only on 61.5.

Check below for a list of channels: Scroll nearly to the bottom and look for *148 sat channels* (burnt orange color band) in the 9400's.

thanks mark. thats it. duuuhhh i look out the window and i see the smaller dish is pointed west of the 500 and i was thinking i was on 61.5 duh. i actually did the initial install myself with the window open and the sound up so i could here the signal tone and found 119 after quite a bit of trying but the upgrades were done by installers.
thanks again.
hey does this mean i should get another discount on my HD package beacuse i dont get one of the channels?
BFG
BFG
ohhh, so the dish is 148 and not 61.5, do'h! ;) Well no the demo isn't part of the package, so no discount...

The Demo channel is mostly selling the idea of HD with the 6000 receiver. The last time I paid any antenntion to it. The loop is very old and the channle has nothing compelling any way. Hmm compelling HD..seems I've heard that before :D

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....

Finished season 3 last night. Still one of my favorite shows.

Anyone else wonder if there might be something else going on with Callum? Seems to me he has too much access to Russian intelligence.

Great ending, but it ran in circles most of the season.

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?

I have a DISH Hopper 3 (Software H713) with Hopper Plus (Software P15403). I have not tried streaming services but I primarily watch TVB Jadeworld international package which is only available by streaming and when I have an issue, I usually have to go to a non-streaming satellite channel first before the streaming channels will work again. What software versions do you have and what is the error message if any are showing on your screen? or is that Dish downloading logo just stuck and never finishes?

I'm on H713 on the Hopper and P15403 on the Hopper Plus. It shows internet connection issues and doesn't finish loading the various services. I see the "loading circle going around. Sometimes I get a message saying that the service is having trouble loading my content and to check the internet connection.

Did it ever work correctly before? Hard to say what the problem is. Usually for streaming, it will show the Dish logo with lines sweeping down to show downloading, never seen the circle issue. Did you try a manual reboot, red button reset, power cord unplug/replug to see if it makes a difference.

Might be worth just to ditch the hopper plus. No issues here on h713

Buy a roku and dump the hopper plus you'll be better off. If you have a smart tv you don't need either one. No hopper plus here and no issues!!!
