    811 Finally working

    I have had Dish for 6 month and was having a lot of trouble. After posting several threads trashing the 811 I thought it would be fair to say somthing good now. Ever since the last update I have not seen acquiring signal, no waiting to watch TV, great OTA reception and channel surfing has gotten...

    Dumpin' the Dish!!

    Sony LCD You make a good point. I did see my cable hooked up with DVI connector and the SD channels were much clearer. Even when I hook directly to the cable, without the digital box the picture is much better. This is true even for my 32" Sony wega. The Grand Wega TV has a remarkable picture...

    Dish Network with Sony HDTV?

    Sony HD Great choice in TV. I have the Sony Grand Wega 60 without the HD Tuner. The answer to your question is NO. The tuner in the TV is for OTA broadcast signals. Thats what no one at the store tells you. You don't need the tuner built in if your hooking to cable or a satalite receiver. They...

    Dumpin' the Dish!!

    Piece of crap! 811 that is!

    Thanks Thanks for the feedback guys. I am calm now. haha, I have to reboot almost every night if I surf between OTA and Sat. It's just frustrating. I have 2 other recievers, 322 and NEVER had a problem. Maybe I am being unfair calling it a piece of crap but it would seem to me I should be...

    Piece of crap! 811 that is!

    Does anyone NOT have problems. This is bull, The 811 is a piece of crap. You have to know all these "tricks" just to get it to work. If I see "acquiring signal" one more time I am going to trash this thing. If the OTA is working, I don't dare channel surf. If you do one thing wrong, it locks up...

    HD 1 Receiver, 2 TV's

    RF converter If you are not to worried about PQ then you can hook up to an RF converter. It will take the RCA video and audio and convert to COAX then just hook it in directly to the LCD. Worked for me.
