This happens on both the Hopper and Joey. Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2

Yes, The picture freezes briefly or misses frames so it appears choppy; and audio breaks up Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2

I have a Hopper and one Joey. Every hour on the hour and on the half-hour I get a blip or break in the transmission. I have turned the Hopper off, then on and also unplugged, wait a few minutes, then plug the Hopper in, in an attempt to correct this problem. This has not fixed this...

Picture Quality My eyes have been in use for 57 years. I can honestly say that the HD on both Dish and FIOS is fantastic. My wife loved the picture quality on Dish and said she thinks that FIOS might be a little sharper; her eyes are younger than mine.

My wife and I have been very pleased with our Dish Service over the past 12+ years. We did a lot of soul-searching (about a year) before we made up our minds. Our experience with Dish was always very positive, especially when my wife needed to call Dish customer service; she felt they were...

Whenever my VIP starts acting quirky, such as frequent signal loss, slow responsiveness to remote, screen stutter, I just perform a warm reboot and a check switch. This seems to clear up my problems for a few weeks. It seems like the unit needs a warm reboot after some software updates. Just...

Improved SD Picture on WRIC - Richmond, VA My wife and I feel like the SD picture quality on WRIC, Richmond, VA is vastly improved too. Is WRIC now uplinking the digital signal and not the analog signal? In addition, over the past 4 weeks we have been complaining about the error in...

I have noticed for the past 3 season, the NFL games on CBS (non-HD) look awful. This is WTVR Channel 6, Richmond, VA. It does not matter if it is Dish or OTA, they are very fuzzy and appear out of focus. This problem seems limited to NFL broadcasts and does not seem to appear during PGA...

I, too, have been getting this message for about 3 weeks on one local station WRIC Channel 8, Richmond, VA. This is the only station I get this message. I spoke with technical support and was informed the problem is in the transmission between the local station and Dish Network; it is not a...

You might have to re-add the locals. I think the following steps will return your OTA locals on the 612. 1. Turn off 612 2. Hook up your OTA antenna to the 612 3. Turn on 612 and TV 4. On the Remote, Press Menu, Installation, Local Channels (8) 5. From the Locals Menu, select Scan...

What will Wilminton, NC do for locals for 5 months? They are converting to digital OTA in July. They are one of 4 cities to go early as 'pilot' DMAs. Bob

I Left Praise I just go off the phone and I left praise for the the technicain that did the upgrade/install on the new dish and receiver.

We live in Henrico County, VA, just outside Richmond. We received great service from the Dish Technician during our upgrade. My TV died, so we purchased a 47" Philips LCD 1080i HDTV. I called and scheduled an upgrade from the SuperDish to Dish1000 and a 612 receiver. The cost of the...

I called Dish Tech Support. The technican listened to everything I did and said that I did more troubleshooting than an on-site tech would do. Dish Tech Support is sending out a replacement 510. The cost to me is $19.00, which is basically the shipping charges for the new unit and the RMA...

The DP 510 is turned off every night, usually by 11:30 pm ET. The only recordings at night were the Soprano's at midnight Sunday/Monday. During the week, this unit is not turned on until 6:00 pm or so. I do not recall this unit ever being left on all night, though it may have happened. It...

Unfortunately, I travel extensively for business so I cannot always address these problems when they arise. We have had this setup, DP510 and DP 301, for about 3 years and DishNetwork service for over 10 years. We have never experienced any picture or audio problems that were not...

I just go and open a window!

I have a very old oak tree that I mounted and antenna on. This tree has a circumference of about 6.5 feet. The antenna was about 10 feet above the ground. I smoothed out the back to ensure the mount was vertical. Once a year, I had to slightly reposition the dish to account for tree ring...

Until yesterday, I have had very positive experiences with Dish staff. They were very helpful for my initial install and in handling/processing all upgrades in equipment and service. Until this incident, I had never had a question or problem with billing. The Technical Support in the...

I have been a faithful Dish subscriber since August 1997. Let me start off by saying, the inital problem was my fault. I am on auto-pay. My debit card was replaced and I forgot to notify Dish of the change in number. The day after the due date, on Wednesday night we received a very...

My neighborhood association tried to do the same thing with those that had E or D. I printed off the pages at: FCC Fact Sheet on Placement of Antennas and took them to the meeting. After the Board Members read the information, they stopped discussion and announced that because of FCC...

Sat Rad reception inside the home. I live less than 4 miles, as the crow flies, from an XM terrestrial repeater. I can receive the XM signal anywhere inside my home; even in the downstairs bathroom which has no windows or skylights; I do, however, have to have an antenna attached in this...

I have Windows XP Media Center. I split my satellite signal on the output side of the satellite box and ran cable to the computer. Whatever is shown on the TV also is on the computer. I also have a USB TV Tuner for my laptop and have run the feed to this device and it works fine. If I...

There are a couple of legal solutions to this. I have used the following two methods: 1. Media center PC 2. TV Card (internal and USB) At the output side of the Satellite Receiver, I split the signal; one goes to the TV and the second goes to the PC. Set the PC to receive the...

I want to thank everyone for their sugestions! Bob
