AZBOX 24 hours and heres my list of BUGS

I have had AZbox MiniMe Americas unit about 24 hours and here are the bugs i have come across.

Multiple hangs,freezes and reboots when running through menus or doing blind scans.
If you go to do a blind scan, switching between C/KU, It will default to KU frequencies for Cband, and Cband frequencies for KU band. Have to play around to get it finally to show correctly.
Dish still moving when doing a scan, so it misses the first few transponders. Have to basically scan twice to get all the channels. Ofcourse, this would only be an issue the first time you scan a satellite and their are no channels on it to begin with.
Sometimes no audio or no video on a channel. Have to turn away from channel, back to channel to correct.
Blind scan pulls a lot of scrambled channels when told to only pull FTA. So, then because it takes so long for a channel to come in, i have to sit at each channel for like 20 seconds to be sure it is truly scrambled and not just taking forever to come into the clear. It would also be nice if in the info tab where it shows some channel details, it shows a key if the channel is discovered to be scrambled. I kept having to click the OK button to see the channel listing menu to see if it was marked as scrambled.
on 55.5 degrees, it scanned 80% of the radio stations as tv stations.
Slow to turn from channel to channel. It takes so long on some channels it is unnerving.
I still don't have recording/timeshifting working and I am not going to play with that again until someone tells me how to backup my configuration settings. Everytime i attempt to play with this, I get a lot of freezes/hang ups.

Now, on the other side, i really would like to like this receiver. It has some nifty features I really like. #1 , it plays the 4:2:2 channels, and #2, i can stream my channels full screen on my windows pc and change channels. I also really like the DCedit program. It makes it much easier modifying the channel names so i don't spend 5 hours trying to do it through the remote control.

I really home the issues above are addressed.

Oh, heres a great one. So, i enter in the BYU transponder on 91w . 3925v4250 and do a transponder scan for 91w. It finds two channels and says all done. I click exit, and it then magically moves the dish to 97 degrees. I go back to 91 degrees and it did NOT add the channel. So Bizarre! I have tried it 3 times, and reboot as well. I have even tried adding it via Manual PID. Same result. It moves the DISH after the scan.. Ps, I was on 91 on a valid channel before i started the scan, so there is NO reason for it to decide to move the dish to 97... Don't get this one!

Update :
Well, apparently there is another BYU at 97 and me putting in the transponder settings was forcing it to wanna jump to 97. I ended up doing a FULL blind scan to be able to finally grab the transponder i wanted. Bizarre.

Something I'm doing is bogging down the AZbox. (Maybe scanning) It started acting slow and would not decode high def. channels. Had to reboot.

UPDATE :

Its worse than i thought. I was watching the CW national feed for about 10 minutes. I turned to the channel above it, TV Azteca, and then turned back to CW. Now, it will NOT view CW or any of the CBS feeds. No matter how many times i turn away and back to the channel. Have to reboot! Only had the darn thing up for 10 minutes. I bet i can fully repeat this step to recreate this error.

UPDATE :

Hung at "AzBox Starting..." again. I also did a PROPER shutdown. Maybe it thinks i meant Permanently!!?? I clicked the menu item, and chose for the box to shutdown. Now It wont start. I will attempt right now to uplug everything out of the back for 30 seconds as suggested. (please hold) Okay, waited more than 30 seconds, and then plugged all the wires and connectors back in and turned back on. (waiting...) 60+ seconds.. 5+ minutes... Still says AzBox Starting..... I can think of about 1/2 dozen curse words I would like to use right now!

I sure can relate to iBoston's experience. I have also had my AzBox Mini Me American for about a day and things seem to be gowing from bad to worse. I have the exact same issues and can even add more bugs to the list. One would be that you cannot cancel a scan. I hit EXIT and it asks if I Want to stop scanning. I say yes but it never does stop. In fact the unit seems to be less stable after doing so. Another is that it misses a lot of channels even during a DETAILED blind scan my other STB's do not. I was able to scan in the NBC MUX channels on AMC-6 one time, and now cannot scan them at all for some reason. I have had to do the recovery procedure several times already for one reason or another, but usually because it freezes at start up. I like a lot of features on this and the picture quality is the best I have seen, but it just is too frustrating to live with. I may have to just send it back as defective. I have spent way too many long hours fighting it!

I know , its frustratingly tantalizing. It's got some great features, i liked some of the many advanced features including setting up the red/green/yellow/blue to custom functions. I REALLY REALLY was hopping once i successfully got through all the setup that maybe there would be light at the end of the tunnel. I was WRONG!

To our knowledge, the unit never totally reboots under the current firmware but does hang for a few seconds on occasion if trying to tune in a transponder with no signal. Thankfully, this has already been addressed in the upcoming new firmware version.

I assume you are referring to the start and end frequencies in the blind scan options. These values currently default to frequencies based on the currently tuned in satellite so if you are currently tuned to a KU band satellite and try selecting a C band satellite without first tuning to it, the default start and end frequencies will remain to the KU band defaults but can always be adjusted manually to the proper C-band frequency range. This will be resolved in a future firmware update but if you first tune in to a channel on the satellite you wish to blind scan, the default start and stop scan frequencies should have the correct values.

This is not really a bug and is caused by a motor moving speed parameter which is too low for the dish motor you are using. The default motor moving speed defined in the firmware is 1.8 degrees per second which is appropriate for most systems. However in your case, it appears to be not high enough so you need to increase it by going to: Installation -> Setup tuner -> Setup tuner 1 and increase the motor moving speed parameter from the current default of 18 to a higher value based on how fast your motor moves.

There is actually an indicator in the info bar displaying the encryption type being used if the channel being tuned is scrambled but it's not so obvious for a new user. On the right hand side of the dot matrix display bar, there should be a letter indicating the encryption type such as I for Irderto, N for Nagravision and P for PowerVu. Please note that some scrambled channels don't necessarily scan in as encrypted at first but once you tune in to the channel for the first time, the scrambled flag will update and the encryption type will be detected automatically.

Please provide the transponder that this is occurring on so that we may attempt to replicate this issue.

Have seen this issue as well on a few specific channels such as BYU that you mentioned in cases where the same channel using the exact same PIDS and channel name is being carried by two or more separate satellites. I do believe this was resolved in our upcoming firmware update however but thanks for bringing it up to our attention.

Next time this happens instead of rebooting, please press MENU then the BLUE key twice to go in the Picture viewer application press and exit a few times to come back out. This should cause video and audio to pop right in. The upcoming new firmware version will greatly reduce the chances of this issue from occurring.

By previously unplugging in the past without first doing a proper shutdown, the main flash chip in your unit most likely now has one or more bad blocks which is preventing it from booting. As per my post in your other thread, you will need to reflash your unit while in safe mode with using a USB key with the firmware on it in order to get the flash chip reformatted. The only caveat of installing the firmware this way is that all your custom settings will be lost so please back them up on USB first while in regular mode.

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....

MLB Extra Innings Issue with DISH

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.

I have an update....

I just called back to DISH Customer Service this morning. They were very helpful. They said there would be no problem removing my damaged Wally HD Receiver off the account and they did an it is no longer there.

They told me to go ahead an setup the boxes which I am doing right now but they confirmed their is a problem with MLB Extra Innings. They totally removed the MLB Extra Innings channels off of DISH and they are not accessible at this time. It is also not available for purchase at this time. They are working to fix the problem and at this time no refunds are being issued. I am to continue to checking back once in awhile to see if there are any further updates.

Hope this can be of some assistance to some people with MLB Extra Innings.

I am not sure if they will ever get back or offer MLB Extra Innings again and if they will issue refunds if it closes out. They say PPV Sports are final and no refunds issued once the season begins so I would assume to believe this would apply to acts of God as well.

If nothing else I will just have to eat the $150.00 and wait on hockey in September.

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:

Another update....

A few moments ago I was going though my channels. and saw that MLB Extra Innings channel 476-01 Baltimore Orioles was back. Checked the status and its on Satellite 119 and Transponder 13. It was on Satellite 110 before. Maybe this is the issue! With the new launch of the 110 Satellite and them moving things around this could be the reason MLB Extra Innings is off the air right now! However, it shouldn't of fried my Wally when this all happened. DISH owes me! LOL! But I will never see it.

It's great to know I am getting somewhere and that this could be the cause of the so called "Glitch" I would say its a pretty darn big "Glitch" a move to a different satellite and transponder!

And now I wait patiently....

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.

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.

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.

Update on MLB Extra Innings as of 5:50 P.M. CDT June 10, 2026...

I am getting tired of not being able to watch any baseball games and having paid for MLB Extra Innings and not knowing what the reason is I called dish back at 1-800-333-3474. I guess after all of my calls my call was routed to the Advanced Technical Support Team. I had something happen that I never knew they could do and they gained access into my Wally Receiver. I was told settings look good and right now on the only channel that shows is the MLB1 Baltimore Orioles Channel. They are playing the at home against the Seattle Mariners right now. She was able to access to that channel which prompted a purchase a Rent option. That signaled a red flag to her right away. She escalated a ticket with photographs and info from my screen to the top tier advanced programing technical department and told me they received the ticket and are reviewing it now. They got back to her and said they would have information within 30 minutes. I either get the channels within 30 minutes or I am to call back and they will advance from there. Seems like maybe my persistence is paying off. I will keep you informed. Maybe we can all have a resolution to this shortly.

New low power station with CP has been granted. "Albuquerque "

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.

EchoStar 25 @110W March 9/10 - 2026.

EchoStar has filed with FCC for license and launch of the EchoStar 25 satellite at the nominal 110W slot.

------"At the nominal 110° W.L. orbital location, EchoStar is licensed to operate over 29 of the available 32 DBS channels (specifically channels 1-27, 29,and 31).3 Currently, EchoStar provides service over these channels from the 110° W.L. cluster utilizing the EchoStar 10, EchoStar 11 (in inclined orbit), and EchoStar 23 satellites; and from the 119° W.L. cluster utilizing the EchoStar 14 and EchoStar 15 satellites. EchoStar anticipates that EchoStar 25 will be ready for launch as early as the first quarter of 2026. EchoStar anticipates that EchoStar 25, a spot-beam satellite, will take over delivery of certain programming services from EchoStar 10 and 14. After launch and in-orbit testing ("IOT"),4EchoStar 25 will proceed directly to 110.0° ± 0.05° W.L. Once EchoStar 25 is placed into operation, EchoStar 10 will initially remain at 110.2° W.L. serving as an in-orbit spare and may ultimately be relocated subject to all appropriate Commission authorizations. EchoStar 14 will remain at the nominal 119° W.L. orbital location and serve as an in-orbit spare once EchoStar 25 begins service." -----

I can tell the new satellite is active... When I go to the point dish menu, here in Chicago, 110 TP 27, which is a Spotbeam, for me with the old satellite was in the signal strength 50's-60's, is now just fluttering between 16-18.

Actually, I can't seem to add the locals back to my account to check right now - when I go to add it and I submit the changes, it shows that I have added 1802 local channels (the whole country) and nothing happens. Something must be wrong with their website.

I just happened to find out that I won White Sox tickets for tomorrow nights game June 10th. Yahoo! I just picked up my tickets around 8 P.M. local time and it is kind of late planning I know but I am leaving here in just a few and heading up to Peotone to stay the night tonight in a hotel and be there for tomorrow night as well. Its 9:21 P.M. Central Time now. I am hoping to beat the possible thunderstorms and fog early this morning up there and the weather there tomorrow as well. I oh so hope they play and no severe weather! Anyways, I just unhooked my Wally receiver and my DISH Playmaker and I am taking it with me. Peotone is in the Chicago Locals market and with me having a DISH Outdoors account I can change it when I get up there. I will have a check when I get there and I can post and let you know. I can put the antenna on top of the roof of the vehicle and run a 12 ft. coaxial cable running through the trunk into the vehicle. I have a DC to AC converter in the vehicle and can bring my Cloner Alliance ViewPRO to use as a the screen. I may even watch a little TV throughout the evening as well and maybe a little WGN as well. I miss WGN. I use to watch the Cubs, White Sox, and Bulls games on WGN and listen to the news and Tom Skilling a bunch. I hated it in December of 2014 when it became a standard cable network only. This will be only my 2nd time since they became a standard cable network and now defunct and rebranded as NewsNation that I actually get to see WGN again. The only other time was in 2016 up in Chicago as well and they were a standard cable network here then and not available locally. I now need to get going. I will let you know later.

This is really interesting. Thanks for posting the Chicago locals - I still can't add them to my account for some reason.

But what I find even more interesting is that you are reporting that some of the Chicago locals are on 110, TP 12. However, right now some of the national sports channels for the out of market sports channels are on 110, TP 12 as well. MLB Network Alternate, for example, is currently on 110, TP 12. And to my knowledge, the same transponder cannot be both a national ConUS transponder as well as a local spotbeam. I wonder if having both satellites active at the same time is causing some coding issue or something like that - for my receiver, it is as if it is checking one satellite, times out, then checks the second satellite for the signal strength.

No Problem! Glad I went and could help out but however I chickened out from the game tonight and I am back home. Didn't like the weather report I was seeing. Everyone in the hotel was talking about the severe storms. 75+ mph winds, golf ball size hail, and tornadoes done it in for me. You stay safe! I guess it isn't going to be very good and its suppose to hit between 3 and 6 PM. I gave away my tickets as I don't need damage to the vehicle plus with the weather like that not going and driving in Chicago that often it probably wouldn't be good driving when it is storming. I do think I made the wise choice.

I however am thinking about going somewhere over the weekend because this hot and humid air that were having will bring in relief after the cold front Thursday night and good weather is expected through the weekend. I don't know where I will head I am thinking State Park wise somewhere camping in a tent and brining my AC battery supply backup that works 36 hours on a single charge and can be charged in the vehicle and bringing the Wally, the antenna, and my Cloner Alliance ViewPro to use as a screen. Just to see what I can all get and to get away awhile. Where ever I go It will be out of market so I could get you their locals and Satellites and Spotbeams if you would like.

Just hoping we avoid the severe weather at my location tomorrow. It doesn't look good on that part but once it goes through excellent and more pleasant weather ahead.

And on what you said. Yes that could be an issue getting the locals activated that you are having problems with. 2 Transponders causing trouble one national and one spotbeam. Your receiver may not know how to handle it. Seems as if they likely will move those other sports channels to another satellite and/or spotbeam. More than likely the issue with my MLB Extra Innings as well. All these changes coming at once and they are trying to figure where to put everything and probably don't know where to put it all. I am sure it has the tech advanced people at DISH working overtime. Just wish they would hurry up and get it done.

Do you have an estimated date of completion by any chance?
