Cutting Edge
Hello and welcome to May! With the new month comes a number of changes here at SatelliteGuys, so I wanted to take a few moments and tell you all about them.
First up, I am so excited to announced that we have relaunched SatelliteGuys Radio! The NEW SatelliteGuys Radio features a new format we call "The 80's Wayback Time Machine" and features the best music from the 80's as well as member produced shows and specials!
Why the 80's? Well the 80's Channel on SiriusXM is SiriusXM's most popular channel. SatelliteGuys Radio features more music, and in my opinion sounds better then the SiriusXM Big 80's channel! Give it a listen yourself! Plus unlike SiriusXM you can also make requests via our website and have them played for you on SatelliteGuys Radio! Best part is SatelliteGuys Radio is FREE! In addition we have apps so you can listen on your iPhone, iPad, Android Device, Blackberry Device, Windows Phones and we even have our own Roku Channel!
It should be noted that all expenses for the new SatelliteGuys Radio have come out of my own pocket and NOT out of the SatelliteGuys Operation Fund. This includes our new radio automation software, StationPlayList. This new software allows us to do amazing things and gives us that real radio sound! In addition I have purchase a bunch or professionally made bumpers, sweepers and promos. This imaging we done by Jake and Dana Sommers who do work for real radio stations around the country! After you hear their work you will agree on how good their work has made SatelliteGuys Radio sound.
SatelliteGuys Radio gives our members another platform to express themselves, and with the new software we have the ability to broadcast live on a moments notice, so if major industry news breaks we can break into the music and report it. We also have the ability to host talk shows like we do for Satellite Nation. I have shown a number of friends who work in radio our new setup and I have been told what we have is better then what they have to use.
SatelliteGuys Radio is currently commercial free, but we do plan on adding up to 3 minutes of advertising an hour in the future. The reason for this is a station like this has a lot of expenses, we have to pay our streaming host for our streams, we have to pay licensing and royalties on all music we play, we have to pay to obtain our music and we need to pay for the on going updates to our imaging with new bumpers, sweepers and promos. When we do add commercials, they will be all lumped together so that you will have 57 minutes without commercials interruptions each hour.
Remember SatelliteGuys Radio is Listener Powered, so if you want to DJ on the 80's Wayback Time Machine or host your own show with your own music or do a talk show please let us know!
In other news SatelliteGuys has partnered with Panjo Marketplace to expand and upgrade our classified section here at SatelliteGuys! All members may now place ads in our classifieds section, the cost to do this is a $2.99 Listing Fee plus a 2.5% commision fee on the total sale. However if you are a supporting Pub Member the cost to place an ad i s FREE, there is no listing fee nor is there any commission fee! (Plus for the month of May we are waiving the $2.99 listing fee for all members!) For more details and a listing of many of the new features please CLICK HERE.
Starting today (May 1st) registered members will no longer be allowed to have a signature in their posts. This is now a Pub Member only feature. As a perk Pub Members are now allowed to post their referral information and codes for DISH and DIRECTV referrals! (For some DISH customers this could help you get a free iPad Mini!) We have run a script that was supposed to remove all the signatures from our registered members but it didn't get them all. SatelliteGuys staff will be removing signatures from non Pub Members as they see them.
Later today we will be launching a "Help Wanted" forum in our Installers Zone forum. In this forum companies seeking employees may post their ads in there. Note however the only members who will be able to post in that forum will be those who are supporting Pub Members. The costs of placing ads in other mediums is a lot higher than a one year Pub Membership... and in addition you know your ad is reaching your target audience. Ultimately we are helping you and you are helping us, thank you!
On to another topic and one I hate talking about and that is money. For registered members you might have noticed a small blue "Be A Pub Member" triangle in the lower right corner of your screen. In addition if you are a registered member and are using a Ad Blocker you might have noticed a scrolling nag asking you to please turn off your ad blocker or to become a Pub member. The reason for that is we pay for our bandwidth here at SatelliteGuys, and our site is hosted on our 3 dedicated servers which are located at what is considered one of America's Best hosts. In addition SatelliteGuys pays to use CDN servers so that static files such as images, java script and css files are served to you by one of 12 CDN servers located around the country. When you load these static files they come to you from the closest CDN server to your location. This helps speed up SatelliteGuys and makes it faster for you! Of course all of this comes at a price, and unfortunately our ad revenue is down almost 70% from this time last year yet our traffic has remained about the same.
Without trying to sound mean we run SatelliteGuys as a service to you, every time you visit us it costs us money and if you are using an ad blocker it robs us of revenue which we need to pay our bills. We get it.. we hate ads too! We have worked hard to make sure the ads you see as a logged in member do not slow down your SatelliteGuys Experience, that we show you safe ads, ads that don't refresh, ads that don't automatically play audio and we make sure we have no ads that have popups or popunders. Because of this we ask you to PLEASE consider disabling your ad blocker, or better yet become a SatelliteGuys Pub Member! If more people disabled their ad blockers then we could actually lower the number of ads we show. We are not in this to become millionaires, we are doing this because we love helping others with this amazing technology!
I have created a brand new webpage which explains to you all the benefits you get as a SatelliteGuys Pub Member, you can check it out at http://www.satelliteguys.us/index.php?pageid=pubinfo please take a moment and check it out.
If you have learned something or saved money because of SatelliteGuys then again please consider becoming a SatelliteGuys Pub Member!
As always if you have any suggestions on how we can make SatelliteGuys better we are all ears! SatelliteGuys was built on listening to our members!
Thank you for your time, your support and most importantly for being a member of SatelliteGuys!

When I put this site up as a test site I added the directory to the robots.txt file so Google would NOT index it while we were testing it.
When we launched the site to the public I forgot to remove the directory from robots.txt. I was notified by Google that they could not index the site because they were blocked. So I went in quickly and removed the directory block from Robots.txt.
The issue now is Google only downloads the robot.txt file once every few days, so even though the file is changed they are still operating off the old robots.txt file.

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.

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....
So let the game continue!

Looking for a manual. Want to do some radio astronomy with it. Realize it's old but, since it's not for tv use don't need any decoders, just the RF section.

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.

Actually, PWA stands for "Progressive Web Application" and is basically just saving a site's homepage to your desktop where it appears as an "App" with the rest of your smartphone's Apps.
New low power station has been granted by the FCC and the new call leter is K33OB-D on RF ch. 33.
Will run at 15 KW ERP, this one runs from the Westside same location as KWPL-LD a HC2 owned station.
It's going to be aimed at eastern part of Albuquerque, so it's tightly focused beam pattern.
This new station is owned by Digital Network and what kind of programmings is unkown at this time.

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.
From Illinois

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,

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!
