Hey Claude Greiner , do you know if Dr Pol's veterinarian shop outside Weidman Michigan has DISH or Direct setup? Do you travel that far from Detroit? Just curious.

They started building Towers earlier this year and we've done IoT Setups throughout our area. Not test sites, Real IoT Antennas and real towers
A handful of 5G towers pretty much sums up the entire 5G rollout from all companies combined.

DIRECTV has said for a number of years their set top model was to have a central server, the HS17 in this case, with clients on all the TV which for 4K is the C61K. That said I wouldn't count on seeing anything new coming for a standalone receiver.
No one is getting 5G today. At best, a few spots have something called more or less 5G. Standards are still in flux.
Agreed!
But here is the issue. I can get a 5G capable phone and go between 4G and 5G towers today.
Dish has got to build out an entire network before they can sign up the first customer.
And do you really think any of the other carriers out there are going to help Dish out by allowing 4g roaming on their network?
Dish is on their own!
The Boost thing still has not been approved either.
How come the expert ended up here instead of out there making a difference ?
But what they have now is junk. Would be nice to see a stand along or a more powerful 4K box.

Your sour grapes when it comes to all things Ergen is getting a bit old. But what the heck, never let it be said I tried to censor someone.
For me, if I had a 5G phone, I'd be in for a road trip to even try it out. I think Indianapolis is the closest and that's a few hours away over a really crappy interstate!
So far 5G is a dud! The current phone hardware can't do 5G for long before you need to do some active cooling, and I'm not talking just a fan! So while you could do 5G, you couldn't do it for long.
As to what agreements Ergen would have to make with others, well it is all about the Benjamins.

It's not the HS17 is a POS, it's DIRECTV's policy of no other receivers on the account. When I was testing it I had a H44 (with drive), HR44 and HR54 up and running and they all worked fine together. The only issue was making sure which mini's you wanted associated with which Genie, which is something they could fix with some programming.The HS17 is garbage unless they allow other equipment on the account.

Don't know why not. The only things I can't do is PIP and ESPN3 which I could with the original Genie boxes, which I never really used anyway. I have three C61K's and three C61W's and they work just fine. I put a C61W on the back of a TV using velcro strips, all you see is an extension cord running up the wall to the TV.That's what makes it a POS.
I don't know about you, I prefer NOT using a client to access Tv
I agree. The HS17 is garbage unless they allow other equipment on the account.
They need a new stand alone HD box that can do 4K and a stand alone DVR. Or just allow multiple genies.
It's sad that we are installing equipment in commercial accounts that was manufactured in 2011/2012
Doesn't this kinda tell everyone what ATT thinks of the DTV future? I gather they are not putting a dime into development.
Maybe it's true they don't plan on any DTV in five years. Or are we down to four?

I think you misread what he said... or just completely misunderstood it.Dish is doing the same thing forcing a hopper and Wally on everyone.
