    Existing Customer Promotion

    I came across this promotion somewhere and had to check with Dish to see if it was legit, it was. Between a package reduction and this deal, I am saving about $20. Not a lot but every penny helps. The break is for a new 2-year commitment and since I was not going anywhere after more than 18...

    Hopper w/ Sling: recording playback behaving oddly

    Just finished up with DIRT, Matt figures the problem is a dying hard drive and the receiver is being replaced. My unit has been so trouble free that I have not been on this useful site for quite awhile. It sure came in handy today and feel privileged to be a member. Thanks

    Top Chef All-stars....Lost....Then Found

    We created a timer for Top Chef All-Stars when it started a few weeks ago. We realized that after the first episode nothing had recorded. A check of the timer found no episodes listed. A bit of detective work discovered that the guide listed the program as Top Chef. Apparently the guide...

    Having trouble with Sound and Voice being out of sync with the Picture!!! Anybody else???

    With my Vizio I have been able to use the built in lip sync adjustments in the menu to make corrections. Except for the NBC Evening News which remains way off. Sometimes I have to watch it like a radio!!

    So, I go to the NFL Network to watch the Bills/Redskins game tonight and can't get it. This is preseason, we have not lost hope yet. Don't they expect people here to be watching? Have to go OTA
