The writing was quite awful on that one. We've got these astronomy geniuses not grabbing the whole fifth planet thing. I think it would have been a much better episode (series of episodes) had they been stuck there for a while.

Glad you said that. I would have confused her for Gates McFadden.

Soap Opera Legend, can't believe she's 78.

She's been on Days of our Lives for 50 years. Mom used to record it to VHS all week and watch it a day or two later. It went digital only and forced her to learn how to use streaming apps.

Yeah... Her levitating off the bed was a bridge too far for me as a kid lol.

Was never a soap watcher, except for a brief time waaaay back in college and a bunch of students would gather in the lounge to watch All My Children. I did that during lunch for a few months and decided there were better ways to spend lunch hour...

I watched some of the OKC Texas game on dvr this afternoon while visiting my mom. I had set it to record the season for her, but she has trouble with using the dvr and barely can use the live guide. Usually softball is the first suggestion YTTV puts up when she clicks the tile though, so it works well enough for her.

Setting up YTTV dvr for little league softball for my mom to watch. Watched the local Tulsa girls representing Oklahoma this morning on espn plus. Unfortunately espn plus is a little more difficult for my mom to navigate. YTTV it usually puts the dvr recordings up as the first suggestion for her, so she can navigate it a little easier.

Did some research and found at least 1 Nextstar's station that's is carrys Fox Weather channel along with the main FOX TV Network.

Just maybe if Nextstar's station KRQE-DT to carry Fox Weather channel on 13.2 on August 1st?

I know it's a long shot guessing!

FOX Weather is only on Fox owned stations per rabbitears

yes there are some translators that do. But those are mainly in MN and carry the whole FOX mux from Minneapolis

Can Not Add Locals

zippyfrog said:
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.

This is what happens to me. I came back to DISH about two months ago and have the Top 200 without locals and of course am under a two year commitment. I thought it would be interesting to add locals, at least for a month (hopefully could drop them if disappointed). I am getting a signal of about 65 on both 110 and 119.
I have tried three times over the past week to add locals through the MY Dish web site (on the computer). I get a quote of how much the bill will go up and then hit "submit changes". I then see on the screen, "check out these sweet 1800 channels". I wish! Nothing ever happens. I have done a "update guide" and "reset receiver" through diagnostics/ tools and even unplugged the Hopper for half an hour.
I also think it would be standard practice to send an email when a customer makes a programming change, but I have received none. I guess I don't feel it is worth having to call or chat and am writing it off as "sour grapes" but am still curious as to what may be wrong.
Since I am under a contract, am I forbidden from making any programming changes, or woiuld I loose my "new customer" promotions if I were to add and then delete locals? It would all be useful information for anyone in such a situation.

Call the DISH number and talk to a CSR and ask them to add your locals. Fastest way is to ask for TECH department and tell them your issue and I am sure that they can add them and tell you when to expect them in your guide.

I had issues recently trying to make a programming change on the Dish website. I switched to the mobile app and it worked great - no issues.

What is the best price for the locals. Under contract with the 200 package. I went to add the locals. The price was $14.00 minus a $2.00 discount. I was just pricing but did not subscribe. My new contract is up 8/17. Has any done better upon contract renewal.
I don't have a problem using the module until the fall season starts. It's a battle between me and my wife. Guess who wins.

WiFi Device Connection to Router Question

My pellet grill WiFi (2.4 & 5G) will only connect to my router by using guest mode. My router is a two-year old TP-Link Deco XE75 Pro 3 pack mesh. This is the first issue I've had with this router. Pellet grill company says it must be something in my router blocking the normal connection. No one else is having this issue. Does anyone have a clue what setting in my router could be blocking the signal to my router the normal way but yet the guest mode works?

Wifi stuff can be so persnickety. For example, I have a tablet that I use only for viewing my outdoor cameras. Today, one of the cameras was not showing up. I diagnosed for about an hour, resetting the router, the tablet, and the camera, etc. I finally realized that for some reason the tablet had connected to the router at 2.4 ghz. It usually connects at 5 ghz., the preferred.

So, I reconnected it at 5 ghz and the troublesome camera showed up. I have no idea why. The camera itself is only capable of 2.4 ghz., not that it should matter.

I had a similar issue with a Traeger PRO 780.

Once I did that, it worked fine.

Yes... seems odd that it requires a "guest" network.
Perhaps the WPA/Security is a bit different on a guest network.

I actually had a similar odd problem with 3 of my LG appliances.
After working for a couple of years, suddenly none of them would connect.
I tried all of the various suggestions... 2.4Ghz only, no special characters in the password, etc..

I ended up having to delete the app from my phone, re-adding it, and then deleting all of the appliance profiles from the app and installing them as new.
Once I did all of that, they reconnected fine.

WOW, what a nightmare. Recteq WIFi folks said same thing that guest network security might be a bit different.
