    722 with 6.0 UHF remote for TV1

    Solved it for me I got rid of my TV2 and have a dualdvr. I came across the second remote for tv 2: 6.3 IR/UHF Pro. I took off the key and moved the white tab two clicks to the right (starting on the left) and now it works. So I have two remotes for one tv (HD 52inch). Awesome!

    VOD won't lock out

    I read an earlier post about this and it's happening to me. I lock out channels I don't want/don't use....like VOD's. But, they keep popping back up the next day. Is this a bug or can it be fixed somehow?

    Phone Line and Connection Fee

    I have a duo dvr 722, paperless billing/autopay, and was still paying the $5 tv connection 2 fee until I happened to be talking to a csr about a programming fee and mentioned this fee. They removed it. I wish they had done this by themselves months ago...

    Anyone dropped Platinum from their HD & Platinum and kept "HD for Life?"

    Just worked! On the website I couldn't process the drop of HD Platinum (to just HD for free which I was grandfathered in) because I wasn't allowed to make more than one online switch in programming every 12 months. They gave a phone number that I called. They processed it in 3 minutes, waived...

    Comparison I just switched from TurboSilverHD (DishAmericaSilver) to AT200. I made a comparison chart to evaluate what I would gain and lose by going to AT120 or AT200, including Platinum. See attachment.

    Turbo HD - Dish America - June 3rd

    Well, if you're still in Turbo, I assume everything's fine. But if you wait until after June 3 to switch to anything (AT200 let's say), you will have to agree to a 2 year commitment or pay a $99 one time HD fee (in order to get HD free for life). My line of thinking was that since they seem...

    Turbo HD - Dish America - June 3rd

    I was paying 39.99+locals+$5 TV2 connection fee for TurboSilverHD: 51 total Now I'm paying 54.99 w/locals and HD/Platinum for AT200: 65 total and it will hopefully drop $10 after I drop Platinum @June 3. The total difference will be around $10, give or take the $5 for TV2 connection fee that...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    There are some good ones. I've always had top service (in Northern VA). Last week after calling DISH for an upgrade from 61.5/110/119, they came out, installed new hardware incl. a 1000.4. All within 3 days of calling DISH.

    Turbo HD - Dish America - June 3rd

    I switched from DishAmericaSilver (TurboSilver) to AT200 w/HD-Platinum last week. It was so nice to get all those channels that I was missing. I talked to DISH and they sent out a tech for free and updated my 61.5/110/119 to one 1000.4 EA dish so I get all the HD channels, and some SD I was...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    Switched from 61.5/110/119 to 1000.4 for free! I had DishAmericaSilver (old TurboHDSilver) which I may go back to if they start adding HD to it; but in the meantime I upgraded to AT200 w/Platinum and will hopefully drop the Platinum after June 3. I was on 61.5/110/119 w/Hagerstown-DC locals...

    Tech question as HD moves to 72.7

    I have a tech coming out Tuesday to upgrade for free (supposedly) with no fees (I called 1-800-894-9131 via an online CSR referral). I won't be home but my wife will :eek:. What should I tell her to say? I'm downloading the pdf file that shows the new HD on 72.7 so the tech gets the point that...

    TV2 connection fee/lose 722?

    I'm thinking of switching from TurboHDSilver(DAS) to AT120/200. To help reduce costs, I'm thinking of getting rid of my second tv (SDTV) since I rarely use it. Will this save me the TV2 connection fee of 5 bucks? Will I get to keep the 722 or do they change the receiver if you only have one tv?

    DISH Network Launches (Then Removes) The Weather Cast

    I hope it gets better. "It's cheesy," a quote from my wife. "Dad, it's like when you had tv" from my 14 year old son. !protest
