Tings for the update!

U549 4/22/2020

Mine too.... Glad that I checked here before calling for service!!

I got lazy because I hate to call in. I checked my credit card statement and found that I was paying >$50/month for 2 vehicles! I went online and clicked cancel and got All Access for $100 and select on the other vehicle for $60 per year (+fees). Looks like I saved about $450 a year and...

Thanks all! Is there any way that I can get the locals from the two markets integrated into my Dish Hopper and guide? I'd prefer not to have to switch inputs to my OTA tuners on the TVs if I can avoid it. I know that I can do it for San Antonio, but can I do it for the Austin stations as...

In a few months we will be moving from Austin to New Braunfels, Texas. Local news for NB comes from San Antonio. Our home isn't built yet, but I believe that we are on the edge of San Antonio OTA and the ragged edge of Austin OTA signals. The two cities are in (almost) opposite directions...

Great coverage and information Scott! I miss the old days when this stuff was reallly happening at CES. You and your friends were there to cover it. All makes me re-energized about Dish! (If you hear anything new about Smart Box, let me know or grab some info). Safe Travels!

Thanks Rubenray! This post in your link is the best clue so far... Here's what I just got from Winegard Customer Support. Hopefully Dish is tuned in and working on a Fix! "...The U801 software version is causing an inconsistent voltage issue on the receiver which is th reason you are getting...

I saw it on the Facebook "Tiffin Motorhomes Technical Forum" on Facebook. It is hard to post a direct link, but you can search. It looks like the folks with the "dome antennas" are complaining about a variety of symptoms since an update on 4/24. Some are getting pushed to SD, some have...

I've been following an RV forum where multiple Wally users say they began having problems with a frequent "signal loss" message. They are all saying that this popped up in the last few days, possibly after a software update. Any ideas? Is Dish aware/working on this??

Swain is headed here: Dish CFO Steve Swain leaves for Brookdale Senior Living | Push-out Score

Vivek certainly will be missed! Somehow, I suspect that there is more to the story. It appears that this is where he is going: Liberty Latin America Appoints Vivek Khemka as Chief Technology and Product Officer

I had the following service that "auto renewed." Figures include Taxes and Fees. Vehicle 1 All-Access with Streaming $287 Vehicle 2 Sirius Select $150 1 Year Total $437 I called and said "no" about three times and ended...

Thanks Guyz! Have any of you had problems with RF getting into the Dish stuff??

I'm starting to think about getting my ham shack set up at the house. It has been many, many years since I've played with any of the HF stuff. I will have a second floor ham shack with some type of long-wire antenna, which will likely be in the eaves. I'm starting to consider grounding...

Yeah.... It all adds up. While it is fun to gadget-watch and people-watch, It has become too durn expensive. A few years ago, I had a clean and fairly nice hotel that I could get for less than $100 per night. This year (I just looked), rooms are $419 at the same place! When you add that to...

I'm getting about 3 full days, like 72 hours, (really!) of battery life on my Iphone 8. That compares with about a day on my 6s. I did a backup and restore, so app demand should be similar on both. Are others seeing the same thing?

do you still get your Locals guide on the Dish menu when you drop the Satellite Locals.

We're giving some thought into installing Smartbox in a large communications center. We'd like to have the option for multi-channel TV on flat panel TVs, as well as an IP interface so that channels can be viewed on operator's PCs. Does anyone have experience with this? I see some limited...

Yes... Other than being a "WN8" as a Novice and now a "WB8" when I got my General way back when, I have the same call, even though I now live in "5" land.

Licensed since 1969. Looks like I'm coming up on the "half century wireless association" membership!

Thanks Scott.... I don't have a 4K primary TV yet. I wondered how Hopper would handle. When I tried to download the 4K Version of Defiance, it indicated that I didn't have a 4K TV and asked if I wanted to download a compatible version. The Samsung TV says that it is playing a 1080i (not...

The sift to the new remote hasn't been too bad. I was sure that I wouldn't adapt to it. I have both on the table next to my chair. Now I always reach for the new one.

OK... Here is the summary of my install: Task: Replace a HWS and Joey1 with a Hopper 3 and a Joey4K. Location: Austin, Texas area I planned to go through DIRT, but they were (understandably) jammed and I was in the 200's. I called Dish yesterday (Saturday) morning to check on the "deal" and...

Looks like they are moving faster now and are in the "180s." I suspect that you will get a message soon. Have fun!
