    DTV does not qualify for WatchESPN?

    So teh fact that I have Mediacom for internet means I will never get this app to work on my tablet or droid phone.

    New customer deals for July 2011

    I went with our local retailer, he is the one that told me he only installs HD receivers in my area...if I would have called in, I would have got the HD DVR and one HD. Unless I wanted to pay for another HD at 99 bucks each.

    New customer deals for July 2011

    New customer deals for July 2011

    I am one of those evil newbies that just joined DTV I was a Dish network customer for MANY years, and switched to Mediacom cable for a year......boy what a mistake that was. Cable TV is just not the answer any more, if there is an outage, it's two days before your back up and running, and you...

    Phone Line and Connection Fee

    So plug in a linksys type reciever for my wireless network? Plug into the USB on the back of the receiver and it will find the wireless network? no software to install on the 722?

    Phone Line and Connection Fee

    Internet connection I don't have home phones, but I have highspeed internet of course. Is there a way to connect my receivers to a wireless network in my home? I'm not going to run cat5 cable or USB from my router to all of these receivers.

    Thinking about going to DirecTV

    Ya, I just noticed that there is a one time fee of $50.00 to add a tuner for an off-air antenna to a D* receiver. E* has tuners built into their HD DVR's already, there was no extra charge for hooking up an off-air antenna. (Since E* has my locals in HD now) D* does not offer my locals at all...

    Thinking about going to DirecTV

    I like the DVR for the whole house idea, I can get a HD DVR for my Man cave, and another HD receiver for the living room, then 3 other SD receivers for the kids room etc. The DVR recordings won't play on those SD receivers though right? It looks like a no-brainer right now to switch in my...

    When will we get true local weather on 8s

    Accuweather was a much better source of ACCURATE Weather, Weather.com is a HORRIBLE web site that is so full of advertising, it won't run on my computer at work (Firewall don't like all the pop-ups and ads) owns the Weather Channel? I'm done watching that channel too now.

    We have to choose our battles, my Wife thinks the Rooftop antenna is an eye soar on a new house, so I'll take it down just to save that "I told you so" for something else. Once we loose locals due to weather, I can pull that card out of my pocket.

    Thank you Charlie, it's nice to see that "CHANGE" has come to Dish Network. I was willing to bet money that you wouldn't swallow your pride and add Fox News in HD, but I guess you know where all the money is. (For now) Until hope and change guy gets done.

    I haven't seen a Rangers game in HD YET, but I have seen several Devils games in HD. (Wifes favorite team) You might have to listen to the Penguins announcers for the play-by-play, but over all, I am happy with the amount of HD games I am getting this year. I personally like Colorado on...
