Jeez, can't a guy take a couple of days off? What can I say? I was absolutely, completely, totally wrong. I misunderstood what an EHD is. I apologize to everyone and ask for your forgiveness and understanding. Perhaps this capability will be available down the road. I am sure that everybody will...

722 (my claim only extends to the 722, which is the receiver mentioned in the OP - I have no idea about any others) and 6.14, I think - whatever was current about a week ago....and nothing wrong with explicitly caveating comments. I just mentally insert them as a service to others.;)

How so? The new card is NOT required for EA programming. That is to say that people without the card have EA programming. Perhaps I am misunderstanding you?

You can get what you want but probably not in the way you want to. You are somewhat fortunate in that Denver is one of the decreasing number of local markets carried CONUS, otherwise for RV purposes you would have San Francisco and Atlanta via NPS. Since you are simply receiving your normal Big...

See? Support from a man who ought to know!:D

Waxing Philosophically When folks make statements like: You need a new smart card to get EA programming. You cannot record directly to an EHD. [insert your own favorite statement of absolutivity]:( I interpret them as meaning "As far as I know,......" Using adverbs like always, never...

(If you cannot see the post, change your font color.) Sure, please forgive formatting errors. This assumes that the EHD installed, formatted, connected and otherwise ready to go. Let’s say my program of choice is “The Best of Lawrence Welk” PART I - RECORDING I go to a guide that contains...

This is just not being loose with the language. It is consumer fraud (Mabel, there ain't no hi defynshun shows on KORN-TV!). I noticed that even the veterans here perpetuate this misleading usage. They ought to be ashamed. I guess Dish likes the trips to court. Call it something different, like...

My neighbor got that. He had an invalid combination of selections. A warning message would have been more useful. Try changing one thing at a time (if it doesn't increase your cost).

I dunno. There are some things you don't want to see in detail.

You can get programs to the EHD in one step, I have done it. I don't know the technical jazz but apparently the programs are recorded to the internal storage (in my case it appears as TV2/ehd) and then automatically get transferred to the EHD. I say apparently because knowledgeable people have...

Consider that one day Dish will say we have EA (1000.4) and we have WA (1000.2) single dish solutions. Choose one or the other (if they give you the choice). No more mix and match. They may permit multi-dish solutions equivalent to the 1000's but do you want to deal with that? Is the 1000.2...

Could you explain this further? If a TV is locked then does that mean that nothing can be displayed? If for instance you have "TV1" on channel 33 and "TV2" on channel 35 how does that work with security? If "TV1" isn't referring to receiver 1 then it doesn't make sense since you can direct a...

Thanks for your response. A couple of comments to clarify (I hope!)

Thanks for clarifying that.
