A 625

[dcsbass]

A little back ground I just had dish put in a up grade, for me. Two rooms, install and dvr. I thought I was suppose to get a unit for both rooms. I got one 625. I was asleep! Had worked three days in a row(16 HRs every day), and work Midnights 11:00PM to 07:00am.
My question is what units(DVR) can I add for my second room so, my kids don't keep mine tied up, with recording things? I don mind buying a dvr but what model? Will I have to pay a montly fee? Card?

Thank you David Crockett Sr

Why?

The 625 is independent for both rooms. They can record and you can record.. Neither will interfere with the other if it was set up correctly.

You just won't be able to record one channel while watching another. But you can watch a recording while it's recording something else..

Set the 625 to dual mode the button is on the front of the receiver and instructions are in the manual.

Look on Ebay for a clear of charges 501 or 508. You will pay a $5 additional receiver fee but no DVR fee. Assuming that your dish/switch setup is in place, just run a cable from the dish/switch to the desired room and you'll be ready to call E* and get the receiver authorized.

Set the 625 to dual mode the button is on the front of the receiver and instructions are in the manual.

You will also need to make sure that "Record Plus" is turned OFF. Otherwise, it will try to record on the primary and then the secondary tuner.
