Fairly simple to do. Take advantage of the double channel numbers in the dish system. TLC has two HD channels, one at 183 and one at 9488. (really just one channel but thats for the tech guys to explain) Set up one timer to just record new episode on channel 183 and set up a timer to just...

I remember two dates when I was in school that the whole school was glued to the TV all day. One was the trial of the century waiting for the OJ verdict in '95 and the other was 9/11 in '01. Anyways, I'll be at work listening to it on NPR or watching it on CNN.com

I should have expected trolls to give their 2 cents when I ask my question. Anyways, I hope E* opens up the HD channel as well as SD.

HBO has "invited" its television service providers to make the concert available for free to all their customers. Question is will E* participate?

You can get the yule log on blu ray. Yule Log Ha I got a chuckle out of that.

WWAY here in Wilmingon, NC also does not have a digital sub channel 3. What would be the point of this showing on E* uplink report?

Scott do you have any idea what the plan is for HD Absolute subs come Feb? If the switch happened today and I wanted to keep all my current channels that's a HUGE $20 dollar a month increase just for keeping the same lineup. If I wanted to pay the same monthly price I would loose 13 channels...

I couldn't agree with you and the O.P. more. It just doesn't seem logical to be giving HD absolute customers anymore channels, and it looks like dish is going to let all the other HD customers suffer because of that. I just think it would be a bad move on dishs' part to give HD absolute more new...

I was just going to post about my 722 today also. I was a new customer back in June and my 722 was dead when I got home from work yesterday, 5-6 months?? It was new, well ventilated and never was touched. I have laptops with hard drives in them that are 4 years old and still going strong. I hope...

It seems to always be about image quality when talking about HDMI vs Component. When I switched to HDMI I noticed a significantly improved sound quality. It was very crisp and clear. However, if there was any change in image quality it was unnoticeable.

I have an OTA program guide issue unrelated to the original post but didn't want to start a new thread. I currently subscribe to SD satellite locals. HD locals are unavailable for my area therefore I use an antenna. The program guide shows info for my OTA NBC, ABC and Fox affiliate but shows...

Is this programming guide information for local OTA digital sub channels? I wish they would have added programming info for CBS here in Wilmington, NC over the 2 weather channels. Dumb

Recent Issues with 129 I signed up with E* about 4-5 months ago with HD absolute so I get most of my channels from 129. My signal strength was fairly strong and it only cut out about twice in the first 3 months due to heavy rain. Recently in the past 2 weeks my HD channels are cutting out more...

We arnt missing out not having Fox News HD. According to Fios and TWC subs who get the channel say its just like CNBC HD+, just a SD channel loaded with graphics. I would imagine this is the reason why it is being skipped by D* and E*.

Are you guys able to view your programming when you log on to your account online? Since Turbo launched I cant view mine. When I click on view my programming it gives me this message "We cannot process your request to change your programming package. Please call 1-888-884-2741 to make these...
