The Dish 300 was a single focus dish and was the only one they made with no compromise because it has only one focal point. The Dish 500 has dual foci and thus the dish while being parabolic in the top to bottom aspect is splayed open slightly in the horizonal aspect and had to have a larger...

Well, I looks like I"ll be moving to WA, hope they add my HD locals to 110 or 119 because much of west Texas is on EA due to lack of spot beams on WA. I got stronger signal and fewer drop outs on 110/119/118. They'll probably do away with the SD locals (if they haven't already).

This sounds like water cooler gossip. Some tech mouthing off with no logic behind his ideas. Without EA satellites New England customers would have a difficult time with satellite dish location since even at Boston the 119 satellite is only 20 degrees above the horizon, trees and buildings...

Well, maybe he's learned what's obsolete and what isn't.

Did you consult with Dish Network before you cobbled together your "satellite system"? It sounds like you have put together a system made from either incompatible or only partially compatible components and expect it to perform like a system installed (for Free) by Dish Network techs. Why don't...

I don't think the 510 is compatible with the current Dish Network signal modulation, i.e. it can't understand the signal.

Perhaps he could put a Dish 500 or 300 reflector in the shop behind the WJ positioning the WJ at the D500/300 focal point therefore concentrating signal from a wider source?

I don't think the H3 has the capability to stream multiple programs at one time.

YES. The files and the EHD are tied to the account of the creating dish receiver, so you can't port them to someone else's receiver.

Go to www.dishpointer.com in your computer browser. Find the 61.5 satellite in the right hand drop down. Enter your exact address where it says "Your location". You will get a satellite view of your location and a line pointing to the 61.5 satellite plus the elevation and azimuth for the 61.5 W...

It can work depending on what receivers you have (old, old, old tech). If you have pre-ViP receivers they may not be able to decode the new Dish signals.

From behind the dish, 61.5 comes from the left and should be reflected to the right lnb. If it is on the left lnb cover the left one with aluminum foil and move the azimuth 8-10 degrees left. Skew must be set to book value for your zip code. Only tweak azimuth and elevation to get highest...

So, Ford hub caps don't fit your Lincoln?

The Wally is GUI replacement for the ViP211 series. It has no hard drive built in but you can add an external hard drive. Wally has some streaming capabilities I think. If you already have a 211 with EHD the $40 you paid for the 211 will cover the one time $40 fee for the Wally EHD to be added...

On your J4, go to the gear icon in the upper right (settings) then Dish Settings, Remote. Diamond settings are at the bottom of the page.

You put enough amps through that baby and she'll be red, but only for a fraction of a second.

I bought a wireless Joey 4 on eBay. It arrived today. Swapped it with my old wireless Joey and it proceeded to the activation screen but would go no further. I called Dish and worked with a CSR for at Dish for over and hour. As she was finalizing a tech visit, she transferred me to Specialist...

Not exactly. Truthfully, of the new programming content, probably 75% of what we watch is on the big 4 networks, and mostly CBS. The programming on streaming sources is too sexy, raunchy, and vulgar for our taste.

In my opinion this says less about the services rendered by satellite companies than it says about the change in lifestyle of the next generation (my grown children). Two out of the three use YouTube and similar services instead of cable or satellite. The third has a basic satellite service but...

Couple of 70+ yr olds here, had IP phone service until we moved last year now we're on cell only.

I was under the impression that the Joey 4 was faster than the original wireless Joey. I have an original wireless Joey and it is slow to respond to input and needs to be rebooted (power cord ) about once a week or it stops responding when changing from live to recordings and back.

What's so important about the label. You either watch it or you don't.

Are they still installing the Hopper+ for free?

I called Dish today and they tell me that their system does not show the wireless Joey 4 as an option. The CSR checked with someone and they confirmed that. IS there a wireless Joey 4, do I need to do CSR roulette, to whom could I escalate this to get a wireless Joey 4, assuming they exist?

I'm sure we can figure out which are HD and which are SD. We're techy guys right? I have all SD duplicates locked out anyway.
