    How long with Dish?

    1997, only had to remove two trees to get 119 sat, two more trees when Dish 500 came along. Never had any problems with Dish, just have to reach the right person to resolve any problem you might have, usually a "tech" type. Have always preferred Dish "program guide".

    211K and 722K problem

    About 3 weeks ago I bought a 211k to use with my portable dish. It checked out fine, everything worked. I reconnected dish to my 722K and all was good. Several days later I decided to check the 211K again and connected the dish coax from 722K to it. The power light came on as soon as I connected...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Mine are shipped from KY and if I send one back another is in the mail. About one a week if I do my part and manage my queue.

    We May Be Seeing the Beginning of the End of the TV Business

    Wait a minute! There are still a lot of us folks that don't have access to "broadband" internet. If not for satellite, I would have only a dial-up service and it sucks. The cable and telco companies are not expanding as they were charged to do by the government (FCC,Congress). Every effort and...

    Question for the installers

    As a RV'er, if you are changing locations frequently I think it would be a test to set up a 1000.4 each time you move. I have enough grief with a Dish 500 and happy to get 110 and 119 and that makes the wife happy. I have about wore out the marks for EL and Skew and give it a guess.

    Yes you can. I am doing that at home but I am on the road right now and don't quite remember how. Sure someone will jump in and tell you how.

    dish 625 in rv

    I think only the port to OTA antenna is amplified. All the other are input/output select switches. I have cabled mine up so that I can use a converter for OTA TV as I still have analog type TV's. Using VCR and aux inputs and outputs one can come up with several combinations. Make sure you have a...

    dish 625 in rv

    I have a 322 in the cabinet above the passenger side. Last time out I was having a similar problem and out of flustration I reseated the "smart Card" and everything worked. Had to do that several times when changing campgrounds. When I got home and hooked it up to home dish, had no problems...

    It Was 11 Years Ago Today...

    Nov 98, 3000 receiver off of Ebay, installed myself. Primestar had no LOS so I used a shotgun to clear the top of a fir tree for 119. Bill was $21.19 a month. Times have changed!

    Lost Chicago Locals?

    What I hate about being tied to a local is when there is a thunderstorm 50 miles away and they keep cutting in ones favorite program to give minute by minute updates. Don't interrupt the commercials.

    DWTS Season 11 Discussion

    Anyone who didn't vote for their favorite has no say as to the winner or loser. By the way, you can't vote 300-500 times. I think the max this week was 5 votes. Don't vote but do hope Kyle or Jennifer wins out.

    HD duo 222 receiver, getting signal to second room?

    It will be a coax and I don't know how far or difficult they will make a run. Always have installed my own so I don't know how much trouble an installer will go to.
