    Scared to move..talk me off the ledge

    Thanks. But, since I only need SD, I see that Indianapolis SD locals are on Spot Beam 13. Where can I find a map of that?

    Scared to move..talk me off the ledge

    I don't mean to threadjack, but I also didn't want to start another "moving" thread! I, too, am a little concerned about "moving." It's been a long time since I "moved", so I was wondering if you guys could refresh my memory a little. The audio quality on my Terre Haute Fox affiliate is...

    Need help getting nearest ABC local.

    I've spent way too much time trying to figure this out on my own, so now I'm asking for help. Can somebody help me figure out where I can "move" in the Terre Haute, Indiana area so that I can get WRTV (ABC) Indianapolis via Dish? I'm getting KGO and WSB through NPS, but I'm so fed up with the...

    Frank Caliendo on Dish

    He's on some radio spots too. Dish is running them around once an hour in my market. Funny spots. There's a Madden one and a Pacino one.

    Should I buy a used DV3 4000?

    Thank you folks! After reading your replies, I decided that it wouldn't be worth the trouble. I own three 301s, and only using one, so since I wouldn't be getting anything better, I'm just gonna pass. Thanks again!

    Should I buy a used DV3 4000?

    I came across a local guy selling a couple of Echostar DV3 4000 receivers for $10 each. Google pretty much gives me a crapload of ebay listings, which doesn't help much. So, I thought I'd put it to you helpful people. I'm still using a 301. Would the DV3 4000 be an upgrade? If so, what...

    L4.41 Software

    Forgive the newbie-ish question, because I haven't been following the USB storage saga all that closely. But, one can't transfer shows to a PC from the external storage device and then view them on the PC, right? I was hoping for a solution to my problem...

    Need to edit two shows that are on at the same time...

    Oh, I see. I misread your earlier post. That's a good idea. I even have a couple of mini-jack to RCA cables lying around. Hooking up a second receiver close enough to my PC is the hard part. I'm not sure how much the 622, 322, or 222 run, but I have a feeling it will be more than what I...

    Need to edit two shows that are on at the same time...

    I still need to get audio from two shows that are on at the same time. Are you saying that I should use a second Dish receiver and use an MP3 player to record audio from that second receiver?

    Thanks, but could you elaborate? Are you saying that I should connect a second receiver to my PC via a TV capture card?

    Need to edit two shows that are on at the same time...

    On an almost nightly basis, I need to edit down some audio clips from network TV shows. My current method is to record the show on my networked Series 2 TiVo off of my Dish Network 301 receiver. I then transfer the recording to my PC where I can use some audio editing software to get the clips...

    NPS Now Requiring Address Verification?

    I've been an NPS/AAD customer for about 6 weeks. I signed up to only get ABC because that's all that I was eligible for at my address. Today, I decided to "move" to a white area. So, I called them and the CSR pulled up my account. Before I could even give her my new service address, she said...

    BMW to Offer HD Radio in all 2007 Models

    http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2007/01/07/033264.html The option will cost $500. Seems kind of high to me. If you're an HD Radio supporter, you'd probably like to see it either be standard or part of a larger optional package. I can't imagine many people selecting HD Radio as a...

    Why doesn't everyone just 'move'?

    I see. Now that I look at that chart again, I should have seen that. I was only looking at 110 and 119 locations because I'm pretty sure that's what I can pick up.

    Why doesn't everyone just 'move'?

    I've read the speculation regarding moving the channels to spot beams, but why would they do that? To make room for other channels on the CONUS transponders?

    NY Times Review of Receivers

    The New York Times just did a review of HD Radio receivers. None of the units wowed the writer, with poor reception and/or sound quality being a common complaint. The Radio Shack radio that was mentioned recently in this forum apparently is $125 after $25 MIR right now. Not as good as the...

    HD Radio in Connecticut - A Review

    The biggest problem with HD radio so far is that the side channels aren't offering anything unique. HD needs content that will drive people to it--that will make listeners buy a new radio when their old one works just fine. HD needs something similar to what Howard Stern gave Sirius. One long...

    Why doesn't everyone just 'move'?

    OK. I've always considered myself pretty tech savvy, but this channel chart and spot beam stuff is kicking my ass. I looked at dishchannelchart.com. Can somone tell me if I'm reading it correctly? The only local channels that aren't on a spotbeam are the ones that used to be offered as...

    How to get Distants from NPS

    Looks like while my serivce address was originally in a white area, Dish started offering LiL from a nearby market since I set up the address. I'm guessing that's why I'm inelgible to get anything from NPS. Has anybody tried "moving" again since 12/1 to get service from NPS.

    How to get Distants from NPS

    The replies have slowed a bit, so I'm stepping in with some questions. When I calls and give the phone number that Dish has for me, then in theory that should be all it takes. Am I understanding this correctly? If I have a white area service address and a different billing address on file...

    Welcome New Members! (Please Say HI here!)

    Hi folks. I registered because I'm hoping to find info on subscribing to Canadian satellite TV in the US. I know almost nothing about it right now, but the coming loss of Distant Networks on Dish Network has motivated me to find alternatives. I'm a fairly green noob to all of the...
