Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I knew about EA requiring Mpeg 4 receivers, not WA. She's in Texas on WA and says she called 4 times and can't get them to activate it--needs a new smart card as well. One of the reasons was what I started this thread with. Another was because of the package she has which she doesn't to seem to know what it is but says she started with "Turbo HD" and then switched to a regular package with HD added for $10 @ month. Doesn't make sense to me. I used it with WA and had subbed to HD with no problem. You just got the SD channel versions on it, of course. Hope she gets it taken care of from the ceo.
