None of you are aware of details of my situation, I asked the question I got the answer and I was fine with it. I didn't fly off any handles. But, I didn't need or appreciate the snide cracks and criticisms. Once Jim5506 gave me the answer I needed in the very first reply, this thread could...

Yet you left out the part where I said ‘I was considering getting him a 612”. Never once said anything about him considering anything beyond the new TV he bought. Butt out, you haven’t been any help, just rude.

Look. The whole deal is dead in the water. There are changes needed at the dish which is above my pay grade and requires an installer appointment. Right? So, it’s his account. I’m not getting all that done without him knowing. So, if I can’t swap a 512 with a 612, story’s over. Thanks to all...

I NEVER said that he wanted something new. I SAID I wanted to look into it. Learn how to read.

Yeah, he’s not going to go for a complete upgrade, he thinks the receivers he has work just fine... been there, gave up on that argument. I thought if I could slip in a 612 which operates similarly to the 512 he’d be willing to accept that. But, since it requires a dish upgrade, I reconsider...

My 84 year old father still has/uses 2 512 receivers. He recently got a nice HD TV so, I was considering getting him a 612 to go with that TV. If the 512s are working fine would it be as simple as swapping out the receivers or would anything need to be changed at the Dish for the 612? Thanks!

Yep WALB Albany, GA just posted on Facebook that an agreement has been reached. Very curious to see some details. Hoping Dish stood firm.

Thanks for the reply, I figured it wasn't available, just had one last shred of hope. Maybe it will eventually get uplinked.

The Groove, on Sirius channel 50. Wikipedia states: "The Groove will be on Dish Network channel 6050 starting January 19, 2013". 6050 is not listed at all in the guide on my 722K, does anyone else see it on their guide? Has my receiver missed an update or is the channel just not there...

Just catching up today and read through this thread. Called Dish and just simply stated that I was calling about the free Roku box being offered to customers that lost AMC programming. The first CSR verified my account info and then transferred me over to Loyalty. The Loyalty CSR asked if I...

Here is what I have and what I am hoping to do. Currently I have a cable tv package and a Dish 722K DVR. I also have a Channel Plus frequency-agile multi-channel modulator. My intention is to send the composite signal from TV1 & TV2 along with a couple of other sources as CATV channels out of...

Right, which is the way he is having to run it right now. Looks like we'll just pull another cable off the DP34 for Tuner 2. Thanks.

I had a suspicion it might be something like that. OK, thanks for the answer, keeps me from chasing a non-existent problem!

Here's the situation, my dad had a 510 receiver go out and Dish replaced it with a 512. No separator was sent with the 512 but, I had one laying around so we tried using it. Could only get signal on tuner 1. I reversed the connections and then only got signal on tuner 2. So, I figured, bad...

Working today. Go figure
