    No Grandfathered Status In 2005- for me!

    First let me say, I had no problem with Vooms OTA guide It suited my needs fine. That said, The 921 OTA guide rocks. first off you can scan for digital OTA channels and also you can choose to do an analog OTA channel scan as well. (something the voom box wont do) So two things happen. You will...

    No Grandfathered Status In 2005- for me!

    I have had voom since the start and dish for 10 years. I got sick of waiting for dvr and sick of my replay not recording HD. So I took the plunge for the 921.

    Done with VOOM> Dish and 921 here I come!

    If you go to Dish 921 forum you will see I had same concern with recording OTA in HD with 921. The long and short of it is that if you subscribe to Dish locals you can get OTA guide and record locals in HD. This is what I am understanding. I will be very unhappy if reply was incorrect!

    I have never even plugged in phone cord. I do know if I turn box off at night it works better then if I leave on 24 hours. But none of this hassle happened before latest software upgrade. Thanks for your help.
