I'm currently own an HR10-250 receiver and have two dishes on my roof (one for locals). I have the Family programming package with the added HD package and of course, DVR service. I purchased the HR10-250 from Value Electronics a couple of years ago when it was still over $800. At that time...

I've had my HR10 for quite some time now but the last few months I've been having trouble with my ATSC tuner(s). The audio/video will drop out at an unacceptable level on certain local channels. I've been up on my roof to adjust the antenna and I can get most of the channels to come in okay...

I have an oval dish and a round dish for locals on my roof, as well as a 6x8 multiswitch. 4 cables are running from the oval dish to the multiswitch, 1 cable is running from the round dish into the multiswitch. That leaves one "flex port" open on the multiswitch. So I have an OTA antenna up...

I'm hoping someone can help me out with this problem on the HR10-250 high def receiver. I have an antenna hooked up to the receiver and I am getting my locals in HD. However, the guide data for one of my channels (ABC) shows "SIGN OFF" for all time slots and all days that the guide displays...

I'm using the D* HR10-250 receiver with an OTA antenna hooked into it for HD locals. The program guide shows all of the OTA channels and has guide data for all channels except ABC. When I first hooked it up, it showed the guide data, but now ABC shows "SIGN OFF" for all time slots throughout...

Okay, I have the Jensen TV931 indoor antenna that is amplified. I've also tried the Zenith Silver Sensor. I just got D* hooked up with the HR10-250 but I was previously using my TV's built-in tuner with both of these antennas. Anyway, I get strange dropouts that I wanted to ask you about...

Just finished getting D* installed with the HR10-250 receiver. Everything works perfectly if I use the component video cables, but if I try HDMI, I get nothing - no picture at all. I'm hooking up to a 50" RCA DLP HDTV (LPW162) and made sure I switched to the HDMI input on the TV itself. The...

My installer is here to install D*. I have an oval triple LNB dish as well as an 18" round dish for locals. I also have a 6x8 multi-switch. Here are my questions: 1) The oval dish instructions say that there is a multi-switch built in. Do I still need the additional switch? How many...

I'm getting D* installed on Tuesday (2 dish setup for locals) and I was wondering about those OTA antennas that hook onto the dish? I was at Best Buy today and they had a couple different ones that hook onto the small dish... and according to the salesperson, you don't have to run a cable from...

I'm nearing my 1 year commitment with Dish and I'm thinking about cancelling and perhaps switching to D* or cable. I'm on the DHA plan with the 522 receiver. When I cancel, what do I have to do? I assume I have to return the dish, the switch, and the 522 receiver. What about the wiring...

I'm thinking about getting the HR10-250 receiver from ValueElectronics online. I'm currently a Dish subscriber, so I'll be switching to D* as a 1st time customer. What is the actual process I'll need to go through to switch? I want to buy the receiver from ValueElectronics, but I assume I...

I'd appreciate any advice you guys can give on what a new HD user (me) should do to enjoy HD programming. I purchased a 50" DLP HDTV last week and currently have an indoor OTA antenna hooked up to it for local HDTV broadcasts. Though this works very well, I work 2nd shift and unable to watch...

I currently have Dish ATA 120 with the 522 receiver and a 36" CRT TV. I'm planning on getting a 50" HDTV some time this week that has a built-in HD tuner. At this time, I'm not really interesting in getting the Dish HD package because I don't watch the channels that are available in HDTV on...

I have the 522 receiver hooked up to my living room TV and my PC via the ATI All-In-Wonder tuner card. I use the PC to archive video that I want to keep permanently and/or burn to DVD. So, in order to record Live TV, the TV2 tuner has to be powered on and tuned to the right channel and then...

Just wanted to share my comments after having DN installed yesterday. This is my first satellite system, so I can't comment on how it compares to D* or any other satellite system. I ordered the DHA promotion with the Top 120 package and the 522 receiver. Obviously, installation was free and...

Hi, I signed up for Dish last week and it is getting installed Tuesday (tomorrow). Now I've been reading about the Viacom battle and wondering if I will be losing channels right off the bat? Do I understand correctly that CBS will only be shut down in 20 major metro areas? What about the...

I didn't even know Sky Angel existed, so thanks for bringing it to my attention! Okay, so here's the deal: I just signed up for the Dish Network and they are coming on Tuesday to install it. I got the free standard installation deal and the 522 DVR receiver. 1) Will the 522 receiver...

I'm looking to get Dish Network soon, but wanted to know which options for receivers/DVR's would be best for my purposes. Here's what I want to do: - I need one tuner in my living room for general TV watching - I need a second tuner in my computer room to hook up to my PC (I have the ATI...

I'm getting ready to order a Dish Network system with two tuners - one for the living room TV and one to hook up to my PC computer. 1) My PC has an ATI All-In-Wonder video card, so I assume all I need to do to watch TV from the satellite is hook up the S-Video output on the receiver to the...
