Not impressed, the 129 satellite is too unreliable. Move them into the core slots!

And then during the Christmas holidays they could change it to a nice fireplace in HD.

The D500 see two orbital locations and the D1000 see 3 orbital locations. What this means is that the D1000 can see an additional satellite at the 129 orbital location where a lot of the HD programming is transmitted from. Depending upon where you live, you are probably going to want a D1000...

Dish Pro Dual LNBs are less than $25 on Ebay, including shipping. However, your 110/119 Twin will work as long as it is Dish Pro. The problem that you are running into is that the DP34 requires Dish Pro LNB equipment.

The PocketDish has custom firmware to support Dish Network content. I don't believe that you can change the firmware on a standard Archos unit to enable this capability.

HD comes from 110 and either 61.5 and 129. (61.5 and 129 are basically mirrors of each other with regards to National programming - they do however contain the HD locals for different markets.) You will need another dish added to capture either the 61.5 or 129 slot as well as a DPP44 switch to...

Click the sponser link above for dishstore.net They are $8.00 in the "Dish Adapters" section.

Another thing I noticed a few weeks ago is that Wheel of Fortune is now being provided in HD. The local station in Minneapolis passes it along in glorious HD. Oh Vanna!

I purchased my own equipment via the web and did a self install. They get a little picky on activation to ensure that you have good signals from all the appropriate satellites. Once you get past that and verify that you have good, rock solid signal levels, then the rest is a breeze.

Dish does not call the receiver, the receiver calls dish. It calls dish to report PPV purchases. It also calls dish as part of the Dish Home feature to allow you to check your billing and such. I think there are other reasons that it calls Dish but I don't know what they are or what the...

What side of the switch do you have the diplexer on? Input side (towards LNBs) or Output side (towards receiver cable run)?

I'm in Prior Lake and have a Square Shooter SS2000 on the roof pointing right into a couple of trees. I get all the Shoreview channels and the 41's out of St. Cloud in the range of 75-95% on the Dish 622. I think I am 28 miles from Shoreview if I remember from antennaweb.org

I think that sigmtr meant that the channel was free for AT60 and higher. Not the dish itself.

I sense a ban in the near future

Also, the costs will vary greatly depending on what programming package you want and whether you buy or lease your equipment.

You say you ran "a new length of RG6". Hopefully you actually ran two as you cannot use just one cable with a DP34. If you are trying to use a single run with the included separator, then the configuration will fail. Your setup is a little unclear.

The DVR fee will be waived if you subscribe to the HD Platinum pack.

You can use the video out ports on the 942 if you have a video capture card in your PC. You will basically have to play the recordings on the 942 and record them in real-time on the PC. If you are thinking of using the USB interface or swapping the hard drive - the answer is no.

Tree branches and leaves swaying in the breeze will cause this too. Make certain you have a clear line of sight.

I have a 622 and a 508, here is exactly what my bill shows: DishHD Platinum w/ Locals 104.99 Dish Network DVR Service Fee 0.00 Addl Receiver Access Fee 5.00 State/Local Tax (Sales/Gross Receipts) 7.16 Total $117.15 This is for Minnesota state taxes @ 6.5% and I own all my equipment.

Call a local retailer in town that sells Dish Network. They will probably come out (for a fee) and help you with the issue.

The couple of times that I have had this happen I did a front panel reset. Just hold down the power button on the front of the receiver until it reboots. If that doesn't work power off the receiver and then pull the plug for a few minutes.

Count me in...

I don't know what the hell is going on with your setup, but that was one entertaining read. Thanks - made my day.
