    DISH NETWORK INTRODUCES ONLY ONLINE VIDEO PORTAL WITH LIVE TV INTEGRATION

    if you have ubuntu try the link below for 64 bit linux flash. It works on my computer using opera as the browser. Failing that google "64 bit linux flash" and you will find a method that works eventually. Install 64-bit Adobe Flash Player on Ubuntu (updated to 10.04 and closing of 64-bit beta)...

    Multi-sport package

    You can get the multi-sports package on a yearly basis for around $50 per year. (This may have increased June 2). To sign up use the online chat. Once you get any yearly package, you cannot change programming online. (But can change via telephone). I believe the monthly price is the same for...

    Echostar 15 launch update

    See CelesTrak: "Basics of the Geostationary Orbit" The defnition of geostationary and geosynchronous may be the same in the dictionary, but there is a difference. Geosynchronous is an elliptical orbit and geostationary is a circular orbit resulting in different ground tracks.

    EA & retain 110/119?

    I wonder if this could be done (119/110/61.5/72.7) with two dishes. The existing 119/110 plus a dish 500 with dual lnb pointed at 61.5/72.7? I have seen some people setting a single dish 500 to 61.5/72.7.

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    Just tried online chat. The agent would not budge on the $15 plus $6 per month or $95 without the plan. When I mentioned that some customers were getting the migration for free she indicated that was not the case. E-mailed ceo@dishnetwork.com and have not received a response yet. :(

    If you have a windows computer software comes with the 1212. I have a linux machine running mythtv and it works great. No idea what the windows menu looks like. The mythtv menu looks like a typical dvr menu. If you want to devote a computer to this mythbuntu is a great way to do it. (All the...

    Woah...what's going on here?

    This same thing happened to me. Both paperless billing and autopay were discontinued without any action on my part. Called and the CSR fixed the problem. It is sad that you have to keep checking to make sure that something has not gone haywire.
