    I'm tired of the H3 audio cutouts.

    Hmmm...I've never heard of a hard reset referring to a factory reset. It's usually just a factory reset.

    mydish App Log In Issue

    When I open the app it never prompts for a sign in...I'm already signed in.

    Self Rebooting Hopper

    Can't you attach the hard drive to a linux machine (leaving it physically in the H3, starting the drive with the H3 then disconnecting the data cable and plugging it into the Linux PC) and copy the DISHARC folder to the other drive and move the programs that way? Or is that method used to copy...

    mydish App Log In Issue

    My DA login appears to be the same password as MyDish. If I login on the app or on the website, I can go right to DA. It carries my password over and lets me in.

    Even a purchased Hopper3 can be exchanged for little or no cost from Dish.

    Dish Price Increases (2024-25)

    They will not re-up you until the current contract expires - the computer won't let them.

    Channel Master Model NO 9510 A control box issue

    The rotator has a DC motor in it that is reversible. I haven't used a rotator for 30 years but I've torn the old ones apart to see how they work. They are really very simple. Mine had a cam in the rotator that the motor drove around once for every so many degrees the antenna was turned. That...

    Channel Master Model NO 9510 A control box issue

    I changed my suggestion after re-reading your synopsis - I don't think there is a short of two wires, just a broken one.

    Channel Master Model NO 9510 A control box issue

    It sounds like your cat broke a wire in the cable. There is probably a common wire, a + (clockwise) wire and a - (counter clockwise) wire. The controller energizes whichever wire is needed to turn the rotator motor in the desired direction, if the + wire is broken the rotator will only rotate...

    Winegard Pre amp question

    Best practice is to put the pre-amp as close to the antenna as possible.

    How to repair antenna wire

    Since it is inside, just twist and solder the wires back together and isolate them with electrical tape - DONE! It doesn't have to be pretty, just so it works.

    More and more streaming FAST channels on DISH

    I'd say, when you paused the IP stream it was paused at the server not on your device.

    Watching 4K HDR programing via a 4K Joey

    I have heard, if you record them on your Hopper3, you can play them on the Joey 4K but video may be washed out because of no HDR.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    From comments Elon himself has made, it appears he did not buy it for an investment, per se, but to have at least one platform where censorship was not skewed for the left.

    Very small screen on some channels

    They are doing that or something similar: "All other channels are perfect, I know I can set zoom or stretch but when I change channels I have to reset". The problem is it effects ALL SD channels and has to be reset when you go to a channel that is not improperly formatted. If the channel was...

    More and more streaming FAST channels on DISH

    There is software out there that can record almost any stream to a PC, perhaps something similar could be coded for the Hopper. All that is done at the provider stream not on the Hopper. I can do that also with my Fire Stick on many streams but there is no buffer capability on the Fire Stick.

    Very small screen on some channels

    I would contact BOTH the channel and Dish and complain about the SD video not being properly formatted.

    Dish Price Increases (2024-25)

    If the price of locals goes up, I will have to consider going to my TiVos with 4 tuners for local TV. I still have my trusty old original Channel Master 4228 out in the open air and connected to one TiVo. We are only 25 miles or less from all the towers around here with flat as a pancake...

    Transponder

    Transponder

    If you get one transponder from a satellite you can get them all to which you are subscribed. Some transponders may read 0 because they may be a spot beam pointed out of your spot on the ground. Slight variations in signalstrength may be due to wiring or may just be vageries of the receiver...
