Space X to Merge with EchoStar?

I would think you can get whatever you wish.

Maybe a ph. line as well, like in The Twilight Zone...?

Don't put a periscope in, that would be f'n weird!

Watching the Indiana game this weekend I saw this after my Hopper crashed for the third time and I decided to let it record the 4K HDR event instead of watching it:

Mine kept flashing a blank screen about every 45-60 seconds audio was not interrupted.

Only about 1/2 second long but irritating.

The Joey 4 did not seem to exhibit this quirk.

EchoStar was founded in 1980 ( 45 years ago) by Charlie Ergen and Candy Ergen and Jim DeFranco as a distributor of C-band satellite TV dishes. Originally operating as Echosphere Corporation, it evolved from a small Colorado-based retailer into a major satellite owner and operator, later launching DISH Network service in 1996 (30 years ago).

Recent history: In 2023 EchoStar completed a merger to re-acquire DISH Network, brining the companies back together.

DiSH was a hard break from previous involvement in home satellite as Echo. Echo wasn't DBS. Echo wasn't even a service provider. When a co. is telling me that it's "trusted," I'm immediately suspicious. I sure don't "trust" them
