    FrndlyTV bought by Roku

    Hopefully others were also putting some pressure on them.

    FrndlyTV bought by Roku

    I started emailing Frndly about a year ago suggesting they make a simple flag change in their app so the Fire live guide could read it. After much back and forth, I'm glad to see they finally got it done.

    My backyard currently

    The thumb could be handy for picking up pieces of the old field. Or maybe it just wasn't worth taking it off for this job when they'll need it for the next one.

    FrndlyTV bought by Roku

    We really enjoy a lot of the Frndly programming. I hope ROKU doesn't mess with it...

    Eastern arc question

    Ok, I didn't realize you have an auto-aiming dish. DishPointer puts the rough azimuth for 61.5 at 169.3 deg magnetic, but using the GPS coordinates would be more accurate.

    Eastern arc question

    The eastern arc sats are at 61.5 and 72.7, but you'll need an eastern arc LNBF to match the spread. It can be done with a 110/119 LNBF, but it takes very careful aiming, luck, and one sat or the other will likely be a little more shaky than the other. I've been off Dish for over a year now, but...

    Dish Change Question

    When Dish dropped the 129 and 77 birds, all I did to my portable 1000.4 setup for my RV was slap some aluminum tape over the unused LNB's to minimize aiming errors when setting up at new camp sites. Otherwise, everything worked normally.

    Rumor? Eastern arc is being retired? (Yes its just a rumor for now.)

    There's no WA LOS anywhere on our upstate NY property. That would rule out any thoughts of returning to Dish from streaming for us.

    TV streaming box - best ones?

    I bought 55" ONN Roku TV when they were on sale. I haven't checked out the Roku apps yet beyond a brief look while setting it up, since I set the startup to automatically use the HDMI port that has my HDMI scaling splitter attached. The splitter has a Firestick 4K MAX installed that was already...

    Looks good!

    About our future:

    I wonder if changing the logo to "SATELLITE GUYS & MORE" would be helpful when the new domain brings people in to check it out?

    Dishpointer Pro "not licensed"

    The Winegard app works ok on my Samsung A51 with version 13, so I wonder what they changed in 14 that Winegard hasn't caught up with.

    Dishpointer Pro "not licensed"

    Thanks for the info, Mike. I run DishPointer on an older spare phone, so I wasn't aware of the Android version issue.

    EchoStar Announces Financial Results

    I don't know what you've been streaming, but other than cable-like YouTubeTV, we like watching the old westerns on the Grit channel on the Frndly app. We also watch the History Channel on Frndly, since YTTV doesn't carry it. We watch NHL hockey games on ESPN+ and movies on Netflix. Off hand, I...

    Dishpointer Pro "not licensed"

    As long as DishPointer is still working, I'd keep on using it. About the only thing that changes are the satellite listings from time to time. The current Dish and Directv locations rarely change, so that shouldn't be a problem. The current locations have been the same for years, and when 77 and...
