    Duplicate recordings different Original Air Date

    Is anyone else having this problem? A number of my timers, which are set to record new shows only, are recording two instances of the same show. The kicker is, when I look at the details for the show, one will show the correct original air date. The second recording will have an original...

    Got a survey from E* the other day asking if I would be willing to pay to access the reserved space on my DVR harddrive. Anyone else get one of these?

    Dish'n It Up Repoint Fee?

    Contest it. They tried this one with my upgrade. They did not have a dish 1000 when they came to install my 622. I had a second dish 500 installed already that just needed to be aimed at 129. The charged showed up on my bill. They argued that the dish 1000 install was free, but aiming that...

    522 without harddrive functions

    The hard drive on my 522 gave up the ghost the other day. Since I own the unit, I was contemplating replacing the drive myself. I came across a thread where it mentioned unplugging the unit, disconnecting the drive, plugging the unit back in to let the system recognize the driveless unit and...

    Big Problems with Ch. 286 Showtime Preview

    WSBK appears for Red Sox games?

    Just curious, but I have noticed lately that when WSBK is broadcasting a red sox game, the channel becomes available in my AT60+ package. Immediately after the game it is restricted, can't even watch the postgame show and then disappears altogether.

    DPP+ and legacy receiver

    I have a DPP+ twin lnb utilizing the lnb in port to pick up some locals on a second dish. These feed my 522. I hooked up a model 4000 receiver and ran check switch. It sees the lnb as sw64. Everything seems ok. I have read where I can use the legacy equipment, but cannot utilize the lnb...

    Dish Network & Disney -- When?

    As long as Charlie does not come with that weak argument about the increase costs being 3 times the rate of inflation, a month after he raised my bill by 2 times the rate of inflation ($2), and ask me to whine to Disney for him.

    DPP Twin and 522 setup

    I am going to be replacing my legacy lnb with a dpp twin to run to my new 522. When I read the technical bulletin on installing the dpp twin, it mentions that in order to set up a 522 type receiver that I have to use a dpp splitter to get the software updates before I install the dpp separator...

    My Dish'n It Up Experience

    Told me the same thing. When I told the CSR that I wanted to talk to a customer retention representative, they sent me to cancellations. They can have their pos 811 back. Hello cable.

    New Dish Promo?

    If you got the 811 as an upgrade. The answer is no. They will tell you that because you took advantage of the upgrade once you cannot do it again.

    What Dish thinks about people buying X22 receivers.

    When E* charges the customer for the leased receiver that has not been returned, doesn't the customer then own the receiver and are free to sell it?

    DVI, component or composite for sd content

    I am using an 811 to receive the AT60 from E*. I dropped the hd package (cost versus content) and took my ota channels off of the 811 (daily BSOD). My question is should I keep the DVI connection from the 811 to my 51S700 Hitachi active, or switch to component, composite or even s-video for...

    Should I upgrade to an 811?

    I actually pulled my OTA channels off of the 811 because of the bsod and cancelled the hd package. I miss having the ota channels on the guide, but not the bsod. There was not enough hd content to justify keeping the hd package.
