So, if he signed up with AAD, can he switch to DISH for Distants or have both until the AAD term runs out???? I guess he has to drop the locals from the RV package then.

You may be correct. I guess I will have him contact DISH directly to get the Distants then. Thanks for the info.

Interesting, since AAD's website shows NY HD on the 72 deg satellite... SD on the 119 satellite.

I find out from him if he has HD or not when it gets activated (he just sent his RV Registration). The $9.99/month includes his Local channels (from his home ZIP Code) and the NY Distants. The locals don't show up on his DISH Network online account and monthly fees. I guess he could call...

I am confused about the Distant Network offering from DISH for RV accounts. A friend just retired and signed up for the RV Pay as you GO account and ordered Distant networks at the same time. He was transferred to MyDistantNetworks that offered New York and/or San Francisco. All the...

Yeah - well after having recently upgraded my last 50x series DVRs for 211s, I don't think I will be upgrading for a while.. And the last thing I need, with 2TB of programs archived on my 622 EHD, is upgrade to a new technology that doesn't support the archive drives... It's bad enough that...

Wow - that would be disappointing that receivers that already have Ethernet connectivity can't 'securely share' their storage between receivers. The only thing we can do currently is and I hate to use the term, sneakernet. And even then, it's only between the ViP211s - moving hard drives is...

Not sure if this has been asked or anyone has thought of this, but does anyone know if DISH plans to offer an software upgrade to the ViP receivers that would allow any ViP receiver in a household connected to the LAN to playback content from it's attached hard drive? We have a ViP622 and 2...

Recently, in our local market (Local ABC channel is Owned by ABC/Disney), there have been ads running from Disney/ABC warning viewers that come Sept. 2, they may lose their ABC and ESPN channels if an agreement isn't struck. (Basically, Time Warner is doing a Charlie hardball play)... The...

I may have misread the Thread on STELA act just passed but doesn't it allow DISH to offer DNS to RVs and Truckers again? I believe Scott said that DISH would be allowed to offer DNS starting in June.

I was referring to the DP-501, DP-508, etc models - which I still have one of each in addition to the ViP units I have.....

Quoted from an earlier post: ." According to the quoted text of the ruling, units already in the field with end users are NOT subject to the order.

Count me in to move my Slingbox to TV2.... (Although it can be fun to change channels on my wife).....

We lost both the SD Locals (error message about receiving outside local area) and HD (diff. message - do not call....)... Occurred around 6:30 EDT. Rebooted both units and it appeared to come back.

I tuned to 102 and found the 'slide' - thanks for the info. DISH does appear to have it messed up though - the episodes are each 83 minutes long but they only show 1 hr window for the first one and 30 minutes for the second, etc.... Oh well. Still won't let me set a timer on the DVR for...

I received an email from a friend and in the email is said: "All films will stream free of charge on HBO: Documentaries: The Alzheimer's Project: Homepage and will be offered for free on multiple platforms by participating television service providers." The latter part of the sentence seems to...

Our neighbor had the same thing - told them they were on the roof and if they wanted them back, they could come and get them.

I noticed the same thing (on the local ABC affiliate only). Haven't seen it since getting the new 622 last week so I am unsure if it's related to that event. Also connected via HDMI.

I use a Channel Master 3022 (Channel Master CM 3022 Magnadyne UHF Antenna (CM3022) | CM3022 [Channel Master] | CM 3022 CM-3022 CM 4038 CM-4038 3022 CM-3022) mounted in the attic and fed down the Satellite Feed via Diplexer to the HD Receiver. I got the antenna from a local TV station for free...

Got the new 622 on Friday and after offloading all the remaining programs to the EHD and recording/writing down all the timers, activated the replacement 622 today. Connected the OTA feed to the unit and it scanned 26 channels - 2 more than the 211K... The main ones are coming in with a...

Having had both the ViP211 (for about a week) and now the 211K, the OTA Tuners appear to be about the same with respect to Sensitivity... The 211 found a total of 20 Digital channels (including all subchannels) and the 211K found 24. The additional Station (and it's subchannels) is a weak one...

Yeah - I am on my 4th ViP622 over the years.. It's been hit and miss on the OTA as well as HDMI - hopefully I won't take a step backwards on the HDMI with the Refurb that will surely arrive. I'm sure DISH doesn't test the OTA when they refurb the units.

So, I went through the problems with my DISH 3900 to ViP211k upgrade last week and finally received the 211K yesterday and got around to activating it with the CSR today. While activating it, I was commenting how the regular ViP211 was able to receive over 24 Digital channels on the OTA tuner...

After activating the Silver 211 (I had resigned myself to having it for good) and adding the DVR option to it, I was relieved with the outcome (and my loyalty to DISH). It was confirmed to me that I would have no problems moving the EHD from the Silver 211 to the 211K with whatever programs...

Correction - it appears the Email worked out for me. ViP211K is on the way..... Now I know why I've been a DISH customer for 12 years - they do listen.
