Wow, very odd. When I lived in a small California town for a three month work tour, the address qualified for the distants from AAD and the LA locals from Dish.

any idea about which of the current cheapie OTA boxes covered under the $40 coupon program is the most relaible for 24/7/365 operation?

A friend - who is the ultimate definition of a couch tater - would like to hook up his trailer somewhere in the fringes of San Diego California so that he qualifies for the Distants thru AllAmDir as well as the San Diego locals from Dish. Anyone have an idea of a city/zip he should start...

I'm in L.A., a few miles east of Venice Beach, here as well as at my previous Dish equipped house, no prob @ 61.5.

denver is weed friendly. cool place to move to.

I have 3 622's and 2 211's and was told after pulling teeth to get the third 622 added that that was it. Was I mislead? Regards, Dave PS Are there any other birds the Dish 300 could be pointed at to get any sort of fta music?

Hi (Pardon if this should an FTA discussion, not sure) I have 6 boxes on my account, and couldnt add a 7th for music in my soho, so fta seemed to be a good solution. Not that dish would miss the extra $5 a month seeing as my average bill is over 130 a month. But, alas, the weird...

I'm using a Pico Macom Sat Tracker and only scan about 15 fta music channels on 119. Used to be a whole lot more. Perhaps I've got the wrong settings... Anyone familiar with the Pico? Thanks much!

Watching Penn & Teller and Fired! just now, I've seen banners promoting Tudors or some other such crap... during the programs. This is a very bad thing. Very bad. It may be just a promo, BUT it's still an ad, and you can expect to see more and more of these annoying disruptions...

Ah!!! So that would explain the sudden purchases on the same Visa card I used... hum... hehe hehe if anyone reading did not realize I was kidding until the "hehe" part, then pls pm me, I have some land in Florida for sale!

Allllrightttttttie....... I found I was elible for all 4, did the S number (from the deactivated 811) they asked for, put in a valid Visa... What should I expect next?

hehehe thanks for the answer *maybe* :) Guess I'll fire up the old 811 and make the call... Thanks! Dave

yes/no or no/yes ?

Did I miss it? Excuse the post if so... Is it possible to use, say, an 811, that was previously active with Dish just for the dns? Or does the box have to have some sort of basic Dish sub? Thanks in advance!

Los Angeles Calif

I didnt even know courtv was still in business. Watched 5 minutes of it once... 4 minutes of lame commercials and a minute of something so utterly bad I felt an overpowering urge to scrub my eye sockets with a Brillo pad soaked in Tang.

Be interesting to see if a virgin 301 can be subbed for the DNS with NPS with no Dish sub.

I have a 508 and a 622, The 508 *had* the remote set to 11. Somehow, it got reset to 1, which is what is used for the 622. Perhaps this has something to do with that horrible DoD crap recently forced down my throat?

Denver? Weren't those DNS channels whacked some time ago?

We have a commercial account, Private Plus, with 6 301's and modulators feeding tv's in the break rooms, a number of private offices, and waiting areas. I'm a little confused as to how Dish will price it when we expand to 15 receivers from the 6 we have now. A commercial rep told me to...

Does it use the chipset that causes macroblocking?

The few calls I made to customer service to inquire about the 622 upgrade have wound up over a crappy voice over ip connection to the call center in India. Add that to the crappy English... Even when I tried the "wait without dialling anything" I got a female who was as hard to understand as...

I'm outside of Baker, Calif. and don't have the LA locals, we have NY distants instead. I thought they were putting HBO HD and SHO HD West on 129? Or os that 148? I have a DP44 with a spare in, just trying to decide if I need 129 or 148 in addition to 61.5 110 and 119. Thanks! Dave

I was looking at a channel line up... for the new mpeg4 channels... if I already have a 61.5 dish, do I need to add a 129? (I have a DP44 with 1 spare input, perhaps another sat like 148 if Dish has HBOHD and SHOHD west?) Thanks in advance! --and sorry if this has already been covered--...

Currently have 61.5 plus a D500 at 110/119. Can I just add another 18" dish with a DP lnb pointing at 129 feeding the DP44 4th input?
