In my case, the coax is buried about a foot & a half to the house wall, then up the wall and along the siding. Its out of the way, no foot traffic nearby.

Can't speak to the cost, but, having had both roof mount and now pole mount, I'd take a pole mount anytime. Easy to clean off snow (if needed) and easy to work on.

Interesting seeing this on cable. Like others, I have it on my H3; I've seen it during live TV at random times.

Because in general, I do my viewing by Dish & the DVR (not streaming for various reasons). This is just a nice-to-have backup to streaming in the rare instances of weather-related lost signals while watching live Dish.

Wow, haven't thought about the peek & poke commands since using my Apple II+ back in the mid-80s. Thanks for the memory.

Very funny/sad. I'm not young, but in 2024 I just cannot imagine calling some company to pay my bill.

Remote Control settings did it; when you think you've looked everywhere... Thanks again.

Noticed the "Last 6 channels missing on Recall" immediately! Assumed it was the Update Thanks, looked & looked for a setting! I'll give that a shot.

Suprised anyone with a Hopper doesn't know about auto-hop. It's been there a long time.

Can't imagine movement affecting OTA. Given that it has worked fine but has many years of use, I'd suspect a loose or corroded connection up at the antenna.

I just know, watching the disussion, that the Joey 4K shouldn't have been named that... ...but since it was, probably should have used "Joey 5" for the new android/hopper-plus one. I've seen so much confusion caused for folks new to Dish over the similar name.

That's more of a corporate business level question, not something the CSR's would be equipped to answer. Just a waste of their time from their perspective, so they were just answering to get you off the line. I assume you didn't expect them to waive the Joey fee. Basic answer is probably that...

As I understand it, the issue is splitting commison between buyer & seller agents. Has never really made sense to me, but now it's at least being questioned. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/11/11/real-estate-commissions-nar-changes/

In the DC case, they all came back on a couple of days ago. Strange it was just the UHF channels; assuming UHF/VHF distinction still even exists nowdays.
