Missing HD channels from 61.5

I have a super dish 110/119 and a separate dish 500 at 61.5 and some HD is missing. Some had moved into the 4000's and more are missing from there now. Example comedy central is only in sd on 107 no where else.

Are they still migrating channels away from 61.5 if so what can i do. Can the dish 500 be re-aimed by me to 72.5 and would that solve it. Or is there a better remedy. I am not sure what the new sats are.

When the tech did my HD 61.5 he went there instead of 129? because he didn't wanna go on the 2nd story where the other dish is an there is a clear line of sight so from the ground/1st floor the 61 is visible.

Thanks for any suggestions.

If you are missing HD channels from their normal 9000 channel range and only find those channels in the 4000's then you need to call DISH for a DISH upgrade as in a few weeks those channels will be removed from the 4000's too.

I did this when fox soccer chanel and bbc america went hd and didn't get them cause I was given 61.5 when I upgraded. Now I have 72.7 as well. Problom solved

We have lost HGTV, FX and some others. 129 is an issue due to trees. Will we lose local HD if we move our 61.5 to 72.7? We are in Minneapolis.

UPDATE: Looks like we will be missing the following channels by moving to 72.7/77. How is this acceptable?

I may be missing something, but a single 1000.4 dish would put you on the EARC. That would give you 61.5, 72.7 and 77. That's what I have and I get all the channels you listed above.

I am showing that the Minneapolis DMA is available on Eastern Arc. If you have NLOS for 129 I would recommend setting up a tech to come switch you to an Eastern Arc setup. Pm me your account information if you want me to setup this up or take a look for you.

$6.3 billion in crypto stolen by hackers

This should hit a lot of folks with a dose of reality. I can only imagine how much more common this will get as AI progresses.

I read several stories on this and most are clear as mud. They say a lot of the stolen bitcoin has been "locked out" and that everyone will be made financially whole. I guess time will tell if either of these statements are actually true.

The company later added it began recovering assets impacted by the breach after pledging to cover losses using its Secure Asset Fund for Users.

The "Secure Asset Fund" had about $1 billion in reserves... in Bitcoin.

The fund started in 2018, so it may take a while to make investors whole, much less replenish the fund.

Song Name Game Part 3!

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....

New report states 29% of vehicles being traded in are under water

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. :eek

Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.

I'm pretty sure the most you can get is seven.

What America can't afford is the payments on $80,000+ pickups and SUVs and $40,000+ crossovers.

Hopper 3 with Hopper plus internet connection problems

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!!!
