LOL Thank GOD our kids are grown and moved out ROFL

I have a problem that just started. Whenever I hit the guide or if I am on a sports channel and use the red button, the screen freezes and the dialogue continues. The only way to get the picture back is to change channels and then change back. Anyone else having this problem or know of a fix?

:p Not all HD are created equal

So if we are getting HD Free for Life, shouldn't we get this pack free also? Guess not all HD is free

New customer here as well my install was on the 12th 1) current promotion requires no rebates its all instantly done 2) works off the coax cable no networking required 3) 24 is the latest see if you can find out who your local installer is and if he has them in stock 4) $25 will be removed 48 -...

Cloudy do a google on D* in your area. I came up with this link for you Direct TV Zimmerman MN Deal! Special Directv Zimmerman Promotions

Iceberg, thanks for the welcome Ryotgz I am enjoying the receivers. After have E* DVR's for so many years it is taking some getting used to.

Former E* subscriber for 10+ years and I finally made the switch to D* My main reasons for switching was the constant dropping of channels. The MLB fiasco a couple of years ago put me almost there to switch but the kicker was poor CS over the last month I received from E* My installation was...

Thanks much Tiger. Will give them a call

So is it possible to have both MRV and an Internet connection with the connection kit installed? You've sort of lost me. Does the kit provide both MRV and Internet connection for OnDemand?

I asked him about the connection kit and he told me that I would lose MRV.

What the tech told me was that DECA which provides the MRV and hooking up to my home internet network are not compatible....is this true?

New subscriber to D* here. Installation done 2 days ago. The tech told me that Internet connection on my HR24 and H24 boxes is not possible because I have MRV. Is this true or is there a work around. I know the internet connection gives me access to On Demand so is it a matter of choosing which...

Hemi I agree with you on the cost factor......it just seems that Dish would have made the Superstation Pkg available in HD..........considering how much they are bashing D* and Cable in their commercials about having the "most" HD

Obviously if they can make a box that can receive OTA HD programming and viewed on a non-HD TV (all those converter boxes you needed to install before the changeover) then the SAT receivers should be made to be capable of this. It would free up more transponders since you wouldn't need both HD...

Hemi yes exactly......

Hemi I know all about the spot beam issue.....but why broadcast 2 channels SD and HD.....1 of my TV's an older analog is hooked up to a converter and I get the OTA's on it.....and those are being broadcast in HD not SD

Ok now that the plug has been pulled on analog signals......why does Dish continue to have both SD and HD channels for locals. For instance if WPIX in NY is broadcasting in HD (specifically the Met games) why is it Dish gives it Superstation Pkg subcribers a grainy SD version

Gee that sounds so much like the standard E* excuse. I seem to remember that they would not carry MLB Extra Innings for the same reason

Rockaway does that include the HD feeds? BTW nice pic...I miss that old coaster :(

Hemi, Yeah I already feel that way. Considering that WPIX is on a spot beam already

Anyone know where I can find a list of NYC locals on D* and whether they are on spotbeams?

Any updates on whether Dish will be offering the Superstations pkg in HD? You would think with all their boasts of being the HD Leader this one would be a slam dunk

I just hope TBS doesn't have those idiot Brave Announcers for the playoffs :))

It sort of helps if your "moving" area is located in an area where the locals are CONUS rather than spot beam. In my case when I moved from NY to SC I just never told them I moved. I put up my own dish and just plugged the receivers in. Paperless billing took care of any mail. And the NYC major...
