    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    Just ordered via without any issues. They didn't even have to ask their supervisor about it before offering it to me. I must have caught a CSR that one of you had already talked to. I specifically asked about the rebate, and essentially was told you need to request a prepaid card rebate now...

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    A hair under $24, plus the $5 to downgrade after the season's over, right?

    Rumor Alert!

    Can you tell us new channel or HD version of an SD channel currently on Dish?

    Rumor Alert!

    I must be right...Scott never corrected me on my guess. By saying a few have guessed, the next one is probably BBC-America-HD.

    Rumor NO MORE!, SpeedHD, FX HD & More THIS WEEK! (NOW LIVE)

    Was not aware that such a channel exists. You could see my misunderstanding with a MavTV channel in HD being talked about as an addition.

    Rumor NO MORE!, SpeedHD, FX HD & More THIS WEEK! (NOW LIVE)

    I'm looking at my guide right now and see channel 9465 as MAVHD. It says its available to me, but the program guide says Off Air and when I try to go to it it says that this is a special event which is not for purchase. I don't see any others up.

    722 freezing problem

    My original 722 had a freezing problem when playing back recorded and paused shows. It didn't happen during all shows, but enough that I knew it was a problem. I was told on a chat with a tech person to try deleting all the recordings and do a hard reset. I did that, and my receiver proceeded...

    vip 722 just went bad any suggestions?

    I just was on the phone with a rep about my 722 that was freezing/skipping while watching anything that was recorded. After deleting all the recordings and hard rebooting it, it tells me that pause and record functions are not currently available. My DVR no longer R's. She told me that I'd...

    2/18/2009 1:52pm - Uplink Activity Report - 71 changes

    Bowling Green is in Toledo's DMA. Findlay is as well. I was sort of basing it on what I remember seeing them cover as far as weather watches and warnings when I was still living at home. I was quite sure that those weren't hard boundaries, but I wasn't sure the conservativeness of the...

    Is it odd that the spotbeams for the Toledo locals barely cover the Toledo viewing area? The green oval covers not much more than the metro area, and the yellow oval appears to miss a bit of the fringe viewing audience.

    Yay. Can't wait to get home and check it out. Now I won't have to choose between Heroes and 24 which one gets recorded in SD.

    NHL CI free preview this week

    Free Previews: NHL Center Ice free preview It appears there's a CI free preview this week, Feb. 16-22. I checked the Dish Network guide and it has the free preview info, so I'm pretty sure Dish Network is one of the providers offering it.

    New XM Lineup

    I'm glad my XM Online Radio Windows sidebar gadget still works after the flip, at least for the channels I listen to. It doesn't include channel number changes, or new channels. But it still tunes in to 47, 48, and 202. For those interested search for "XM Online Radio 1.5".
