Dish Network ??

Hey everyone
I hardly ever make a post but I want some advise and to see if other people are experiencing this. I have the HD package with Dish Network. It has been great til recently.

The past two weeks almost everything I put on has "satellite aquiring" or "sorry for the interruption we know of the problem don't call us". Now I thought at first they must be having some serious issues for this to happen. Now it has been two weeks my wife missed all her shows, and I am missing some football games as well..needless to say not happy

So I call today to inquire they say that the broadcasting stations are messed up its not them. They said everyone was having this problem and that is should be ironed out soon.

Is anyone else having this problem?
Anyone had something similar?

I was a happy Direct Tv customer for a while and feel like telling Dish Network to kiss off and just switch back. I never signed there two year agreement thing so I should be able to just switch.

Thanks for comments and feedback..

What stations? I have not noticed much of an issue at all. They have been moving some programming to different transponders but that interruption usually last about 5 min tops

ALL the local channels
ESPN
Mostlry to be honest everything.
Its kind of BS

You think myabe my Dish is shot or something?
 
Your Dish is probably out of alignment. No issues with HD here what-so-ever.
A strong storm (wind) can knock it out of alignment.
 
Hmm
How do I re align it?
Is that something I can do or do I need to call them?

Thanks everyone for your help on this
 
we have dish.net and we havent had any problems, actually when we had cable we used to lose a signal more than now. with dish i think we have only had a problem when the power goes out, lol... g/l

I've had to adjust mine before, going from memory go into menu, dish set up or installation and point dish. I had to adjust the up done on mine to get back a good signal after a bad wind storm.
 
Sorry to Hi-jack

I am sick of Comcast (to much moola and their BS) and am considering the dish.

Mind me asking what you guys pay per Mos with HD and does the dish have DVR capabilities?

Thanks
 
I love dish network myself, never had any problems and weve had them for 6 years. We just called to lower are package and they let us keep our original package and knocked ten bucks off a month for one year.
