I find that some of the programmed buttons only send out a short burst of code, not long enough in some cases for the device to recognize. I also find that sometimes I have to push the aux button several times to get the codes to work.

The DMA’s are determined by a company called Nielsen, they are the people who issue the ratings surveys. They are the same regardless of how you receive the signal.

I used to have a Bell TV dish when I lived in NH. Now I live in FL and I’m out of their footprint. I can get some stuff from Canada on streaming but much of it requires a user name and password from a Canadian provider.

Not in Florida!

Thanks. Hopefully once there is a bill number someone can post it here so we can contact our congresspersons with our support.

I have noticed that the international packages only offer stations in languages other than English. This means we have no way to get stations from Canada, the U.K., or Australia that we might want. I realize there are likely copyright issues preventing these stations from being carried, but I...

My OTA's via antenna are sharper and brighter than the same channels over satellite. If you are experiencing the opposite you may have your resolution set incorrectly.

Anyone have the bill number? It's good to include the bill number when writing or calling your congressperson.

OK, I got the deal. The first person I spoke to when I called said if I wanted the Hopper 3 rather than the Hopper with Sling said if I wanted the Hopper 3 I would need to pay $150 up front. He also said, on a different matter, that he could not renew the $5 per month autopay credit which had...

I have a 612. My original post says I am looking at upgrade options.

My dish is a grey dish that says Dish HD on the front. It has a single wire that goes to a separator (silver color, not orange) behind the receiver. The separator's label says "Dish Plus Separator 123254". So this is I presume a Dish Plus dish? It was installed when I moved here in June 2016.

I should have mentioned I only subscribe to the Flex package plus 2 add-on's, I suppose that would limit my bargaining power . I used to also have HBO but you know....

I have an offer from Dish that I can upgrade from my current VIP 612 to a Hopper with Sling for no installation charge. Since both the Hopper with Sling and the Hopper 3 carry a fifteen dollars a month charge I wonder why I would want the Hopper with Sling over the Hopper 3 other than the free...

For the past several weeks The Daily Show on Comedy Central is not recording about half the time. I'm using a VIP 612 and have the timer set to record new shows only. Sometimes the day before the guide shows the show as set to record, but when the time comes the record symbol is gone. Is...

This has nothing to do with retransmission, which applies only to OTA channels. Since HBO is not transmitted in the first place, there's nothing to retransmitt.

The original posts from 2007/2008 indicating limited reception range for HD were I believe before the increase in HD power was implemented. Also different from the original posts at least some HD radios (including the one in my 2017 Hyundai Ioniq) allow you to turn off the HD reception, which...

OK, that explains why the SXM was active on a rental car I had last weekend even though I did not pay for it.

So if you have this offer will they drop you from HBO on Wednesday, or will they raise the price to $15? Anyone KNOW?

I’e already spoken with the technical people and they had me check the signal levels on a sunny day which they said are good. I’ve heard but not confirmed that the Hopper receivers use a different dish and/or LNB which is better in this situation.

I've been using a VIP 612 since I first subscribed to Dish in 2011. I lived in NH at the time but now live in Florida. What I've discovered here in FL is that I frequently lose signal during the summer thunderstorms. So I'm wondering if upgrading to a Hopper Duo would help with the situation...

And the audio is low and muddy.

After months of telling us that The Loft would eventually go back on satellite they made the move to on-line only permanent. Then they removed the DJ's except for the weekend specialty shows.

You may want to try using an LTE filter, particularly if you are near a major road where lots of people are using there cell phones or if there is a nearby cell tower in the same direction as your stations. These can be found online an eBay or Amazon.

I have a VIP 612 receiver, and have a problem on Saturdays where I have two shows recording at the same time. The start times happen to be one minute apart. What happens is frequently the receiver will schedule both recordings on the same tuner, and will then resolve the issue by cancelling...

Have you tried an LTE filter? In some cases signals from cell phone service can interfere with your reception.
