    HR24 screen freezes

    I have a problem that just started. Whenever I hit the guide or if I am on a sports channel and use the red button, the screen freezes and the dialogue continues. The only way to get the picture back is to change channels and then change back. Anyone else having this problem or know of a fix?

    MRV and Internet

    So is it possible to have both MRV and an Internet connection with the connection kit installed? You've sort of lost me. Does the kit provide both MRV and Internet connection for OnDemand?

    SD Channels

    Hemi I agree with you on the cost factor......it just seems that Dish would have made the Superstation Pkg available in HD..........considering how much they are bashing D* and Cable in their commercials about having the "most" HD

    SD Channels

It would free up more transponders since you wouldn't need both HD...
