cool..... as long as I don't loose any I'll be happy

I have a 921 and the old hd pack. I will be buying or leasing a 622 and was wondering which HD channels I will be able to recieve on the 921 when I switch. Is anyone doing this now? Thanks Raptor

Just keep in mind the only thing *ish really cares about is money! If they can push lower quality on the masses, and get them to accept it as "HD", ...and in turn add thousands of new subs that don't know any better (because they have never seen true HD, AND because they think they 're getting...

I think the biggest problem will be with HD, everyone is buying HD TV’s (I have 3) and there’s no way I would buy or accept on trade a receiver that couldn't output a HD signal to all 4 TV’s. I've never seen a 100'-150’ DVI, HDMI or composite cable. (If they exist they’re proab. super...

Just don't hook your recievers to a phone line if you worried about it.

YA I know what i want is on c-band I used to have a c-band dish setup, but not any more. was just hoping FTA had something similar.

I'm new and thinking about FTA. has anyone had much luck finding NFL / NHL Games on any free netwok channels? I would like to get the local networks/or Games for Pittsburgh PA, and Boston MA, is this something I could find somwewhere on FTA? Jason

I was just wondering how many others have trouble with fuzzy to downrite horrible looking locals? I've called dish several times and complained about how bad the locals look and they say they are aware of it / engineers are working on it but it's been that way for almost a year! I'm lucky...

Does anyone know if theres any chance of dish adding the sunday ticket any time soon? (their CSR's sure as hell don't know anything) I'm thinking of buying a direct system just for the ticket.

how low does the signal go before it effects the picture?

StevenD thanks for the reply, I checked it out but I think I screwed up by not giving enough info. I will need to run a total of 3 maybe 4 recievers (haven't decided yet). the recievers will be a 921, a 942, and a 510. (maybe another a 510 or 301). (where the 942 is going...

the dealer told me the 942 comes with a dish maybe I should wait and see which one it comes with.

I'm going to be getting a 942 and want to hook it up where I have a 510 now. Can I use a splitter or dp plus seperator to feed the 2nd tuner? I found some info on this a while ago I know it's dependent on the lnb's but I can't remember where I found it. My LNB's 's say Dish pro, when I do a...

where did you find the info on the spotbeams? I just checked spotbeam 10 and I have 85-90 signal and I would like to verify that it's the one for the pittsburgh area before I mak any changes. what I don't understand is last night I went to dish website and it said local nets were on 110...

Derwin0, do you know where he got the dish? is he using it with dish recievers or FTA? I also need the steelers games at my york residence but I don't know how to make sure that the dish and lnb setup will work with my current reciever setup. what I have is 2 dish 510's a 921 and am getting a...

I want to be able to watch the local networks. I didn't think an inline amp would boost the signal from 50% to the 80-85% recomended min. I was hoping someone would know of a bigger dish that would pull in the signal alot better. anyone ever try anything like this?

I need to recieve the local Pittsburgh channels that are on 110 transponder 62 (spotbeam) while I'm traveling to York PA, which is about 170 miles away. the signal is at 48-50% what dish/ setup can I use to boost the signal. when I had direct It worked just fine. for some reason the dish...

is there any way to make a cable co. install service to your home? I live in a rural area that is bordered by 2 different co's. Theres service within 1-3 miles in all directions but they wont bring it up over the mountain. theres approx 50-70 homes in this area without service. They tell me...

I have 2 radioshack uhf only antennas combined and they work great. they are pointed about 150 deg apart I connect them to a channelmaster preamp (model 3041dsb) with antenna lead wire and then ran about 150 feet of RG6 to a splitter I run 3 tuners from there.

it would be really nice to know when the "962" comes out and what features it will have. I hope it would have dual OTA tuners like the direct hr10-250 does. ota makes up about 90% of the hd we watch and being able to record or record/watch 2 ota channels at once especially during football...

Minsk1 & tawhite when you got yours how much did it cost? and is the ota tuner as good as the 921 or better? thanks Jason

I thought about that maybe I'll try it in a few weeks. now i'm comparing directs new hd dvr to the 942 i'm thinking maybe selling my 921 and 510's and get a couple of those and the nfl sunday ticket.............decisions , decisions . :confused:

I called dish this morning and told them I wanted to lease a 942 and they said they could not do it only sell me one for $780.00. My contract with them expires in a couple of weeks and I couldn't talk them into leasing me one. maybe I should shop for a detter deal from direct.

will dish lease 942's? I don't see a lease option on their website only one for the 811. I purchased a 921 and want to lease a 942, because I don't want to buy another reciever till the mp4's are out. Jason
