When I first got Dish, at least some of my local channels were refusing to be carried by dish without (I assume) big fees. So Dish did not have my locals. We don't have great OTA reception, so I eventually stopped watching them altogether and never have missed them since. There's plenty of...

I just had my dish upgraded to the wide dish so that I could get the platinum HD channels I had been missing. I am really grateful to the guy that did it, because I had been trying since April to get this done, and none of Dish's fine people they sent out would swap the dish. They complained...

Can you still change your home address re your billing address in Dish to substitute a neighboring set of locals? I live between two areas. Dish switched me so that now I am getting the other locals. I want the old ones back. Will the "locals" police come after me ?

I'm in MD. I have the 250 package plus locals and platinum HD. I would like the additional channels (given I'm paying for them). However, I wouldn't mind keeping some or all of my existing dishes if that is possible, just for redundancy. It's nice when one of my dishes goes out (as for...

I've had two appts for dish to come out and replace my 119/110/61.5 with the new dish. First they came out in March and told me to call back in April. Now they are tellnig me to reschedule for June. The answer is that I will lose channels if I replace my existing setup -- that all the...

I've sent emails to Charlie, and Dave Shull and to Dish support. I don't understand why Dish would drop RFD TV. It's not just another movie or sports channel, but a unique lineup of programs that viewers can't get somewhere else. I've been a dish customer ($100 plus a month) for ten years...

I'm glad it works for you, but I'm looking for a less expensive solution. The router you're using has a $1500 price tag Surely someone is using dishonline and can recommend something.

I've looked at several of the major satellite sellers and don't see anyone selling a dish online kit. What is tried and true or recommended? I'd prefer wireless if there is such a thing (though I have security on my wireless network and not sure if the receiver will handle that) but if not that...

How can I check if it had a software download this weekend? Also, I generally shutdown the 622 (turn off the power button) as recommended to me when I am done watching, trusting the the device will wake itself up for scheduled recordings. The 622 didn't "wake itself up" this weekend. Should...

I've had my 622 for a few months, but this weekend, I really intended to give it a workout. I had a ton of programs scheduled to record, some football games, some back episodes of Mad Men I'd missed, a bunch of movies off the scifi channel from some disaster movie marathon they seemed to be...

At least I know I wasn't the only one to see them working on it. :)

used the 622 external HD - it works! I have a WD 750GB premium "my book" hard drive and the 622 asked me if I wanted to format it, then it let me "archive" existing programs over there. So I archived one, played it a bit, and went back to regular DVR. It works! (It did take longer for a CSR to...

I switched to this when I was upgrading to my external hard drive, just to see one of the new HD channels, and the feed was very strange. It had cut off the picture so that the animal planet logo was only half there before the picture was cut off. I tried all the various aspect ratios on my...

is this an okay drive? a western digital 750GB drive for 229$ Western Digital - 750GB External Hard Drive - WDG1C7500N

I too want Chiller. Monster HD is the same stuff over and over and over and over. It also seems geared to recent slasher stuff, which I find tedious (particularly repetitively). They need to mix their programming more. There are tons of classic horror movies from the 30s on they could show...

I would have been nice to have one new national channel tomorrow :) August 15 is a long ways away, though i'm sure all the sports fans who just got their RSDs are very happy. As for me, I watch all those newly announced channels a lot in SD (history, science, animal planet, etc), so it will be...

does this mean we are losing Discovery HD theater?

Does Charlie come out wearing a tired cardigan and singing "Won't you be my neighbor?"

Hey, we need a High def version of that too! That can be the HD channel that Dish gives us free outside of the network packages (to justify the 6.00 fee Dish charges for HD receivers when you have no HD programming package! - supposedly this is for the nonexistent free HD channels -- the sat...

I liked the old dish info channel, with continual replaying of the satellite launches.
