    More news on ATSC 3.0...

    DRM is required so that they can make OTA a paid service. I believe that is the end goal. The FCC sold out most of C-Band to the cell companies, and it wouldn't surprise me if they let OTA transition to POTA (Paid Over The Air).

    About our future:

    Agree 100%. The Pit is a not (currently) a place for respectful discussion. It is a place dominated by a certain political persuasion where they pounce on people who disagree with them. Unfortunately, what happens in the "Pit" spills over into the other forums -- bad feelings about those who...

    EchoStar Announces Financial Results

    Looks like it has all I would want. Can you skip commercials after pausing playback for a while?

    EchoStar Announces Financial Results

    I just checked and I can get AT120 (without locals) and a Hopper 2 Duo for $82.99 (price guaranteed for 2 years). Also saw something about a $200 gift card? $82.99 is the same as what I am paying for YTTV. Will have to check out the channel differences. I don't need locals because I have 3 TiVos.

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    The latter. Its the dual tuner version. Just name your price. I don't have any need to have it on my local network, nor outside of that so I leave it unplugged. I wish I had just gotten an Amiko Mini HD.

    New to Hopper Duo, not happy - Is the Hopper 3 UI better?

    I had a Hopper Duo and was fine with it. But that was a few years ago. It must have been before they had promotions on it because I don't remember seeing them. I would take the Hopper Duo any day over Youtube TV's interface, which I really don't like. But it would cost me a lot more per month...

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    I replaced my dead Edision OS Mio with an Octagon SF8008. After I ordered it I found out that it uses a Hauwei SOC and had instant buyer's remorse. Hauwei is not a trusted Chinese company. Needless to say, I have not let it connect to the internet. I could put my network tap (a hardware device)...

    YouTubeTv and CBS/Paramount

    I think I prefer it without CBS and Paramount because I already have Paramount+ and CBS local on my TiVo. I heard from a guy on YT that they would reduce the price by $8.00 if they are not able to reach a deal. Not sure if that is true, but if it is it would reduce the entry level price of YTTV...

    Another Spectrum Auction?

    And that would be straight to the dust bin of history, never to be seen again. Kinda like ATSC 2, but far worse. I sure wish that the FCC would stop selling out to the cellular industry! They nibble away at OTA TV and C-Band spectrum. Let's get rid of the FCC and freeze the radio spectrum band...

    No Video on my Edision OS Mio+ 4k

    Yes indeed. I ordered a SF8008 Supreme with dual DVB-S2X inputs to replace the Mio which stopped outputting HDMI. Looking forward to receiving it, but my order is currently stuck due to "Regional Weather Delays" (too much snow). Might have to wait until the snow melts, lol. ... Looking back, I...

    No Video on my Edision OS Mio+ 4k

    My Edision OS Mio failed today in the same way as Doorguru's. Same TV and HDMI cable as before when it worked. Same TNAP for the last few years. No TV firmware upgrades. The only thing that changed is that it worked a few days ago and now it doesn't.
