    confusion for new subscriber on dvr options

    You would have to subscribe to AT250 to get the VS sd feed in order to get the VS/Golf HD feed. DVR Advantage covers one dvr fee and one lease fee. You can do it with the AT 100 or AT200. HBO/Showtime added on to dvr advatage would run $20.

    HD Locals, St. Louis

    Does anyone have any trouble with FOX with E*? It will be fine for about ten minutes then start to macroblock for a few seconds before returning back to normal. I didn't know if this was a problem with the dish or if anyone else has this problem. Thanks

    HD 622 Resolution

    Thanks for the respones. It sounds like I am a wishful thinker, hoping this functionality was already done. Well my tv is new so it is 1080p. I will just mess around with the output to see which resolution looks "best" to me.

    HD 622 Resolution

    On the menu there is a HD setup where you can output the tv, 720p, 1080i, etc. Do you guys have this set at 1080i and does this convert all of the broadcasts to 1080i? I want the tv to do all the upscaling and so would I just set this at the lowest setting? Thanks for the help.

    Upgrading to HD

    Thanks for the respones....I just assumed I would need a 1000 dish for HD, but it looks like I am wrong on that one... so if I understand correctly all I have to pay for is the vip622 and E* will put in the right dish(es) at no cost?

    Upgrading to HD

    I have been with dish for about 10 months and when I signed up, I signed up for SD service. Now I want to upgrade to HD.... I have a dish 500 right now, would they put in a 1000.2 and a vip622? What kind of equipment charges am I looking for this stuff? Thanks guys

    Ordering Dish

    Can I just order from dishstore.net? Do they have installers in my area who will stand behind their work?

    Ordering Dish

    If I want to order e* in the St. Louis area, should I just call the customer service number and order it or go to a retailer. I guess I am asking does it really matter how I do it. Thanks

    Does anyone know if you get a SD tuner for 2 tv's do both tv's hook up to box? So only 1 tv is really hooked up to the splitter from the dish and the 2nd tv is run from the box? Also does the 2nd tv hook up via RG-6 or component? Thanks
