They are a little pricey for some of their meals in my opinion. They do have a new box meal that is a good deal (sans beverage) - worth your time. Food is generally very good, tho. Tonare1

I have had dish for 9 years. Want to upgrade to Hopper / Super Joey. I would like to know how OP got this deal set up for him. Thanks in Advance... Tonare1

What I have found recently that is weird is I have found LOCAL commercials appearing on NATIONAL channel feeds not locally produced... like Comedy Central, History Channel, Etc... How do they do that.. ? Is it lying in waiting on my hard drive on my 622 and just "appears" when it needs to when I...

Need Starz added for a year promotion.... I was just put on a free preview for Starz and did not get it set up in my acct for the year special. How do I get in touch with the Internet Response Team (Matt?) Can you help me with this ?

+1 :up :):)

Huh, I thought the support for that was part of some of the software downloads we have been receiving lately for 622/722's? May not be necessary to have this remote but thought it would be compatible....... anyone else think that is what we were told?

100% agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had concerns with 129 here in the last few weeks also. (Madison,WI) When going into ck sw. my 622 said I may have some LNB drift, so last weekend I did reaim the dish with a little more emphasis on 129 reception. I haven't had any problems since (pixelation & streaking of channels,) but I...

HDnet test patterns.... Just looked on HDnet's website for test pattern listing... any idea when they actually show this or what exactly they call it? Is it on once a week/month at 3:00 in the morning. (I am not joking!) Any advice on when to view/dvr it would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!!

Naked Dsl I have verizon naked dsl and have for about 2 years now. One HUGE advantage over cable at roughly the same download speeds is that the upload speed - compared to alot of cable services, Charter for example, is double that of cable. This is great for uploading data, pics, etc. and the...

zoom feature I too have a crt that has diff. aspect scalers for better viewing of assorted content broadcast styles, but I prefer to use dish's format button on sd pictures and usually use the partial zoom one when seeing a cropped picture on a HD channel. Seems to look much better than...

Crapper Clog Not that you need enough room for a barn dance in there, but Holy Cow, you definitely don't have much room in there to change your mind, (or change out the toilet, if need be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Receivers Ever heard of a hisense db-2010 (us digital service box) They have a really nice pip guide and have a strong tuner that pulls in signals well. Ck on ebay for examples - good prices also. Very good as a 2nd tuner/backup or to update a standard tv w/o atsc tuner. no hdmi tho. Ck it out...

Dead remote My mom had this condition happen to her #2 remote and didn't do anything about it right away (shortly after) when she got her system. Turns out a CSR told her a while later that they had had some problems with some #2 remotes running the batteries dead ( i believe it was a 6.0...

I have heard good things about the Hisense DB-2010 receiver. It is from a company that formerly had plans to do a cable-like over the air broadcast of cable channels from different metro areas. The parent company has recently ceased to operate, but these units have been sold at many wal-marts...
