    HMDI and Sharp Aquos

    I haven't done done this with my 622, but when I had the older 922(or was it 925?) I did a comparision between HDMI and component. The results were basically that with HDMI, the picture was slightly clearer(more "crisp"), but you loose a little bit of the color compared to component. The color...

    Why does FOX HD look the best out off all the hd channels

    As with others in this thread, with my locals, NBC looks the worst. FOX, CW, ABC and CBS all look great. NBC is not terrible, but you can definantly tell it doesn't look as good as the others. Keep in mind, this is all OTA for me.

    622 "Dish Pass" problem.

    Set up a Timer for that kind of stuff, rather then a Dishpass. Timers can be set for only one channel, and also new, once, all, mon-friday, etc. Timers are much better for things like that, and especially TV series.

    I've had my 942(which I purchased used from someone) for about 8 months, and have never really had a single problem with it.

    VIP 622 Fast Forward

    Yes, don't use ff, but skip forward. IT skips ahead 30 seconds, and the skip back is 10 seconds. If you press the skip forward button as soon as the show goes to commercial, usually pressing it about 5-6 times will get you directly to the when the show starts again.

    Do they not offer locals, or do they just not offer HD locals?

    HDMI PQ Crappy?

    With my 942, HDMI is a little sharper, but the colors aren't as bright. I like to use the component.

    How to sell a receiver?

    IF you want to sale it, you will need to have it taken off your account. Other then that, and making sure there are no problems with your bill, you'll have no problems selling it to someone.

    OTA question

    Before you go thorugh the throuble of doing that, just make sure the antenna cable is plugged into the right thing on the back of the 622. It most likely is, but just check. The reason I say that, is because there has been a few posts on here where the installer put the cable onto the UHF...

    How-to: Recording and Guide Info with OTA?

    Their not going to "fix" it. They did it on purpose, to make more money.

    what & how much for dish network?

    Well to purchase the 622, it would be $499, the 211 would be $234(prices are from www.dishstore.net ). To lease the 622, you would pay an upfront fee of $200, and then get $20 off your bill for 10 months resulting in it being free. The 211 would be either $49 or $99 to lease. If you purchased...

    You should be fine, as long as you don't leave the reciever there when you return home

    2nd owned 942 Total monthly cost would be?

    No specific information, but I bet that it will be at least 1 1/2 years.

    2nd owned 942 Total monthly cost would be?

    If you got another 942, you would have to pay a $5 additional reciever fee, and another $6 DVR fee, so your bill would go up $11 a month.

    622 Activation and Purpose of Dish 1000

    Just hit the DVR button twice to skip through the extra on demand screen. It doesn't really take any longer to get to the DVR recordings.

    What does the 211 come with?

    The installers get the same package as when Dish ships it to you. Some people have gotten component cables inside the box, but most people don't. There doesn't seem to be any ryme or reason for it...

    what & how much for dish network?

    YOu will need one 622, one 211, and one 311(I think thats what it is). Or you could just get one 622, and one 211, and just feed the 622's output 2 to your SDTV. If you did that, you would be able to have DVR functions on your SDTV. For what dish you would need, it depends on where you live...

    VIP622 for $199 starting 6/9/06

    I'm an existing customer, and the guy that I talked to said I would get the $10 off bill for 10 months.

    Is this correct?

    the 625 doesn't have a lease fee, since it is the first reciever. With the 622, you pay a lease fee regardless of whether it is your only reciever or not.
