I have a "TurboHD" dish and I am on the eastern arc.

I am setup to have my dish repointed on Saturday. My locals come out of Saginaw. Hopefully the installer shows up with both dishes and we can figure out which on will be the best.

Ok, thanks a lot for the info. Matches what I have heard, that both could work.

I am not in front of it right now, but I believe that it is 61.5, 110.

I am trying to get the ball rolling with the switch to EA or WA for the new HD. I want to be informed when I make the call. Can someone tell me if Michigan is on the EA or WA? Thanks.

Sorry, this was too long to read through. Is this referring to the new HD channels? (E!, Sportman's, etc.) I didn't get the satellite that those were launched on. Can I get these HD channels now?

Is there a way to find out when the premium channles offer free previews? Like what weekend Starz, HBO, etc. are free for everyone?

Sportsmans Channel is showing up on channel 285 for me.

Thanks John, that is what a figured but I wasn't sure if I was missing something.

I have my DVR setup so that the "record preference" is set to TV2. Is there a way to choose certain programs that will record to TV1? For instance I want Saturday Night Live to record to TV1 not TV2, but the other shows I have setup I want to continue to record to TV2. Thanks in advance.

I just got connected on Saturday and I had to get a credit check and give them a credit card number in case you cancel service early. I didn't have to pay anything up front, but did choose to pay two months of service in order to be enrolled in autopay to take advantage of the $0.01 Cinemax per...

Yeah, I realize that. It wasn't a big deal. By "not in the right are" I mean category wise, like how kids' channels (Disney, Nickledeon, etc. are lumped together, while some are not together. Again, not a big deal.

I got everything installed on Saturday! The installer was great and even hooked up and extra television so I can watch in the basement. The cons so far: I had to get two dishes installed in order to get local channels in HD, which I was not aware of; some channels don't seem to be in the...

You would think so...maybe it took them two periods to realize it.

I have no idea what this means. :confused: MRV= Multi Room Viewing CE= ? So are you saying that my DirecTV DVR would work in two rooms? When did this start and how do I get it to work?
