    Dumb questions about Dish

    They already got their payment for the $199 :( So, at least my credit isn't in danger. And I doubt I'll ever get a penny of that back. But, I'm still sending it to the BBB, because it's the principle of the thing. I ponied up that $199, in part, because I thought I was going to be receiving...

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Over $100. But since THEY broke their commitment by jerking TNT-HD off every Sunday, they've already said I wouldn't have to pay it. They refuse, however, to refund the $199 upgrade fee for the HD-DVR. For that, I'm taking it to the BBB.

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Another one. I was looking at the specs for the 622, and I was looking at the back of it. For the TV2 out, it has RCA jacks. So, if you do the 622 with two TVs, you have to run RCAs all the way into the other room? I feel like I'm missing something on that one, but maybe not.

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Even if TV1 and TV2 are both on HD channels? Because the rep I was talking to was trying to tell me that the second tuner didn't do HD, so if I was recording something in HD, I wouldn't be able to watch another HD channel. So, that rep was wrong, yeah?

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Okay, now I got another question because one of the (I think misinformed) operators told me that with Dish's HD-DVR I can't watch HD while recording an HD program on another channel. Is that true? Dude... I'm still determined to switch, but their customer service people really suck.

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Yeah, you know what, though? I've called Dish three times today already (to try and finagle a good switching deal out of them), and each time I've ended up hanging up on the operator because they either CLEARLY didn't know what they were talking about with the packages and/or hardware, or they...

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Okay. You guys have swayed me. I'm gonna call up Dish and see what I can get them to bribe me with to switch. :)

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Thanks for the replies. :) Thought of another question. With my Directv, to get HD and locals I had to have one 5-LNB dish and then a second 1-LNB dish. I'm guessing I won't require such a massive setup if I go to Dish? Like are we talking a huge dish for Dish or multiple dishes?

    Dumb questions about Dish

    So, I'm seriously thinking about switching from Directv to Dish for the abundance of HD channels (even though I only got it a week ago--I screwed up and didn't do my homework!). However, I'm not really familiar with Dish, and I'm very uncomfortable with change as it is. I'm finding their...
