    Where did TNT (138) channel go?

    It looks like TNT was removed from the Flex Pack. The channel lineup from June 10 shows it in the Flex Pack: https://my.dish.com/cms-files/channelcards/2025/0610/Channel_Lineup.pdf The channel lineup from June 30, shows it is no longer in the Flex Pack...

    Unsuscribed Channels - NewsNation - not showing up in list

    It is all how the channels are flagged. Some are set to be hidden when unsubscribed. Back in the days when Dish had all the RSN's, this is how all the out of market RSN's were programmed and the current sports league packages are setup, and only showed up when subscribed to the multi-sport...

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    I remember having dial-up at home and then went to school and school had a T-1 line. Surfing the web on Netscape Navigator and a T-1 line was the life.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    Thanks for this info - I have never been in bankruptcy before, and am not sure how it works. I didn't know if more paying customers, even if they are paying slightly less (just a couple of dollars less or no increase) looks better for the health of a business when presented to a judge/court.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    If Dish ends up filing for bankruptcy, is there a chance that prices would go down or at least not have a large increase each year? I know this is always the case, but especially when a company files for bankruptcy, isn't part of the strategy to try and keep as many paying customers as possible?

    Has Dish nixed offers?

    I checked today and there are new offers for Starz and Paramount/Showtime. The 2 free months of Paramount/Showtime have been replaced with Paramount/Showtime for $1.99 for 4 months. The same rate is being offered for Starz. All the other offers remain the same - 1/2 off the Dish Movie Pack...

    211k deleting recordings

    To follow up on this, all of a sudden, once again all my recordings more than 60 days old no longer work. And this is with a new hard drive that I put in at the beginning of the year. I am convinced that there is some sort of expiration on DVR recordings now. The oldest recording I have that...

    Brand new 311

    My understanding is that it is either a black screen (as it is data that the receiver can't encode) or a slate with information. But I am not 100% sure.

    Drama and Classics Pack?

    Thanks for this information. On the Dish Anywhere app, LAFF is streaming in what looks like HD (it is a ton better on the TV streaming than anything on Dish channel 239 or my OTA version of it), so I would think that somewhere there is a source that is HD, even if it is not widely available.

    Brand new 311

    I don't know specifically, but "UP29" was a 'channel' that Dish put on transponders before active channels were added. LTD11 was also something behind the scenes for transponders - I can't remember exactly, but someone told me the "TD" part is "transmission data." I can't remember the rest of...

    Drama and Classics Pack?

    I was basing it off what I saw on RabbitEars. According to RabbitEars, there are 720p feeds of LAFF in Norfolk VA, Fort Meyers FL, Tucson AZ, Lafayette LA, Santa Barbara CA, and Corpus Cristi TX. Maybe that is incorrect. Trip would know the nuisances of his website.

    Drama and Classics Pack?

    It would be great to know if that is how it is being received. Here in Chicago, if I watch it on 38-4, it is 16:9. However, on Dish, to make it look the same, I need to change my receiver to be "HD: Zoom" in order for it to look the same. I know some DMA's it is being received in HD, so I...

    Drama and Classics Pack?

    Is the Drama and Classics package a newer package? I don't recall being able to add TNT to a package previously. Seeing TNT in an add-on pack caught my eye. https://my.dish.com/upgrades/drama-classics

    110/119 Listings Post 129 Transition (Updated 5/26/2025)

    I clearly don't know the difference between 398 and 399. I thought they were both the same channel...I thought FanDuel Racing and FanDuel TV were the same

    Is 61.5 still active?

    I had the same issue on Western Arc before. The 119 satellite had no signal and I got an error that said signal loss due to weather even though it is perfectly clear here in Chicago. However, 110 was not impacted - full signal strength there. After about 3 minutes the signal on 119 came back...

    Has Dish nixed offers?

    The only offers I have taken advantage of over the past 2ish years was I did the Showtime free for 2 months twice and Movie Pack half off once.

    Has Dish nixed offers?

    I have 7 offers right now. My page was blank about a week ago as well, but now I have 7 offers again.

    110/119 Listings Post 129 Transition (Updated 5/26/2025)

    Thanks - I didn't know Dish did that - having an HD streaming version but SD on satellite. Makes me wonder why they don't do that with other channels. Such as DisneyXD, which they have streaming in HD on the DishAnywhere App but is only SD on the satellite feed.

    110/119 Listings Post 129 Transition (Updated 5/26/2025)

    It is unbelievable how much "nothingness" has occurred in terms of national channel movement between transponders since I last updated. The listings have now been updated as of 5/26/2025. Everything is so consistent now that there are only the 2 satellites on Western Arc.

    Dish/Echostar 1st Quarter Report

    This idea of the Genre Packs has hurt Dish - Dish tried this with the Flex Pack, but the price increases have taken that Flex Pack to almost double DirecTV's Genre packs. Even Dish's Welcome Pack, which was $19.99 for a while, is now $60+. Do you lower the price to keep customers, or do you...
