After reading the threads about the fcc law giving antenna & dish rights , a truth I've thought of often was aroused , they don't show it , but they have to hate me. Added a dish a year since 2005 ;... 2 - 30'' dishes , plus a 33'' and a primestar , then this ota antenna made it's debut over a year ago , 80 miles from St. louis , 50 miles from Columbia , I had to build something that recieves both directions ,(it does the job) plan on improve looks & reception soon tho .

My Neighbor's Must Hate Me !
my neighbors gave up on hating me and my dish farm :)

on the roof
30" motorized
36" motorized
Directv slimline

Dish 500 & DIrectv Phase III (for Dish 129) on deck railing
2 antennas on roof :)
2 6 foot dishes I wheel out of garage

at one time I had like 6 dishes on the roof and a 6 footer on the deck...also had at one time a 4 foot dish and a Toroidal T90 (42x32 dish)

The only neighbor with an issue was my next door neighbor (I live in a townhouse)....Her hubby likes it because he couldnt get a cable into his garage for his TV so we ran a cable from my garage (which already has like 6 cables coming into it from the house) and drilled a hole between the garages and now he has OTA TV...via my antenna farm :)

I've got several antennas on my roof. Check out my antenna web page:

My TV antennas

There's a link on that page to a station log of the stations I receive, as well.

yep pretty much. It really didnt bother me. He was trying to use this dinky UHF only antenna in the garage and couldnt get really anything. So I was nice enough and ran a cable along where my Directv cable is to the bedroom and right there in the garage we drilled the hole through the garages. He was on his own after that. :)

a 75 foot cable and one drill hole. He gave me that antenna which actually works pretty good when its up 40 feet off the ground on the antenna "farm"...helps with Ion which is 90 degrees off where the main stations are

hey, i have a friend that has a antenna that is 16 ft long thats atop a 30 ft push up pole, and we are about to change to a 50 ft tower.

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.

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.

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!!!
