I have a ChannelMaster 3040842-02 1.0M-02 (the huge round one - 43 inches high by 40 inches wide). Using the stock feedhorn and a new dual-feed standard LNB. I've tried it on 97W, 99W, and 103W. This dish is giving me fits. Pointed at the same satellite, a SuperDish (24 inches high by 33.5...

So I re-upped for another two years the day before the increase, got a discount and price locked. Before I got off the call, the CSR lady said that since I had just agreed to that, I am now eligible for a Hopper Plus free of any charge. The guy came and installed it this morning. I am sure to...

I recently got several of the Zinwell 6x8 multiswitches for very cheap. I already knew they would work as a 4x8 multiswitch and wondered if the two "flex" ports were in any way usable. Browsing around last night I stumbled upon this, which describes some research about 12 years or so where some...

I'm looking for some standard 10750 Ku LNBFs. Anybody got too many spares or decommissioned, and want to get rid of for a decent price?

I just discovered this little item on Solid Signal's website. Doesn't seem to be much info out there anywhere else yet. https://www.solidsignal.com/Dish-Pro-Hybrid-34-Switch-ES225096 It's supposed to be a replacement for the DPH42. Hybrid switch, 3 inputs, 4 outputs, and 3 cascade ports to add...

I'm in a situation where I need more than 8 LNBFs connected to my receiver(s). I have sketched out two diagrams based on the equipment available to me. A 4-port 1.0 with multiple 8-port 1.1 behind it, and an 8-port 1.1 with multiple 4-port 1.0 behind it. The receiver allows me to specify for...

I remember the GEOSATpro Bullet LNBFs, even installed a few back in the day for GloryStar systems. It looks like they've not been mentioned in around 15 years. Is there anything similar still available anywhere? I have been searching but found nothing except the old reviews and occasional...

I am in need for someone who has an antenna pointed at 129, Ku band, to tell me if anything is there. Lyngsat says 12122 H 17000 should be Reuters Live. I have cobbled a linear LNBF onto the 129 position of my Superdish/Dish1000+ but for the life of me I can't get anything no matter how much...

Before I take this 40 pound behemoth to the local electronics recycler, just wondering if there is anything at all that it can still do? If I'm remembering correctly, this receiver only does analog signals which are at this point exceedingly rare or nonexistent, and it could descramble...

I installed a DPH42, (with its requisite power inserter to the correct port) a few days ago and was checking on it this morning. It's almost hot enough to burn my hand if I press against the front of it. Is that normal?

Hi guys, I've been busy with other things for several years and just getting back into the satellite hobby while I look for a new job. The latest info I have found on this subject seems to be 8 years or more old. So I figured I would ask, if a Hopper 3 user with a WA Hybrid 1k2 triple...

Hi guys, it’s been a while. I have a couple questions. I have a Hopper 3 and nothing else in my house. My dad has recently passed away. At his house is a Hopper 3 and a Joey. All equipment in both locations is leased. Question 1. While we are cleaning out and prepping Dad’s house for eventual...

I'm putting this thread out here because all I found was a closed thread about the DishPointer app. I'm hoping to hear what apps everyone has tried and see if there's a consensus on what works well or not. DishPointer is $19.99 so I am trying the free ones first of course. I'll start: right now...

I have just switched back to FLEX after a while and saved about $50 on my bill, still a great value depending on which channels you can and can't live without. Question: Are the rules for Flex pack still the same regarding adding and removing add-ons without the dreaded $5 programming change...

Note: This was previously posted deep within a thread about the Hopper pausing itself. Since the issue persists, I've broken it out here and made some edits, with an obvious "Bug Report" title. Problem Description: Anytime I'm watching something live or delayed that also happens to be...

Am I the only glutton for punishment who actually enjoyed this show? The acting so bad, the horrible writing, complete mindless waste of time.

So I decided to get an LG 65UH8500 as an upgrade from the 55LW5300. The UH8500 series seems to be the most affordable set that still has passive 3D capability along with all the 4K goodness. I have a Hopper3 which will output in 4K when content allows, and will get a 4K BD player when they are...

According to the printable channel lineup card https://www.mydish.com/filestream.ashx?ID=14167&inline=true I should have ION National feed as part of my Flex locals. I don't.

We were watching a NetFlix movie tonight on the Hopper 3. It was quite good, so I was looking forward to reading the credits to see the people and production companies involved. As the movie ended and the credits began to roll, the picture became a tiny box in the top corner, with the rest of...

Let me start off by saying please don't try to turn this into a religious flame war. I am fully aware of the market share numbers for phones that run Windows, yet I still choose to use one. According to https://www.mydish.com/support/services/tv/mobile-viewing/dish-anywhere/system-requirements...

Reason I ask, my in-laws are scheduled for a Hopper 3 install today. They got this email from Dish: Subject: Your DISH equipment has been deactivated Account Number: **************** Dear **********, The equipment below has been deactivated. Any requirement to return your current equipment...

I'm having an issue: when I go to my online account, My Programming, I don't see Flex Pack at all under Core. I don't want to have to contact a CSR every time I need to change anything. It's listed under my current programming but nowhere to be found for making changes, adding or deleting...

Random lockups, always while recording something and the interface is off, that is, a never changing screen saver. No response to the remote or front panel. Only the power button reset or pulling the plug will get its attention. At least I thought it was random. The past two lockups occurred...

Last week, I got a notification from Mediacom that they are implementing caps on Internet usage for all customers. In my case, 250GB. When I signed up they told me it was unlimited. I keep track of usage and in prior months I was in the 50-75GB range. Magically this month, with no change in...

So, today Syfy has a marathon of K-9 which until 3 days ago i didn't even realize was a series. I quickly set an "all episodes" timer for it, and noticed throughout the day that yes, it was recording them. According to the log it recorded all 26 episodes. According to my list of recordings, it...
