If you are looking to implement this, there appear to be some good deals on 6.2 remotes at ebay right now. Search on "dish 6.2"

If I forget to send my leased 811's 6.2 remote back when my 622 arrives, any idea how much Dish would charge me? I know they have a fee if I don't send the 811 back at all, but not sure if they might have a reduced price if I kept the remote. Or does it make more sense to just order a 6.3?

I believe the attached PDF at the beginning of this thread actually answers your exact question.

I do not know what the differences in the 6.0,6.2,an 6.3 are but I ordered a 6.0 and 6.2 off of eBay tonight to replace the 6.3 that came with my 622. My wife gathered up the comforter off the bed this morning to wash it and the remote was on the comforter to it got washed also. I can say the 6.0 remote that came with my 522 does seem to control the 622 also. I only spent a total of $25 for 1 IR number 1 remote and 2 UHF #2 remotes so pretty cheap and I will have a backup.
