After seeing the "free HD for Life" commercial for the 5th time I finally figured out that I wasn't getting the epix channels, even though I am paying for Platinum HD. I only had Platinum HD because it was free, don't really watch the channels enough to pay for it. Epix sounds like it makes...

What is the major difference in the 722 and the 622? I'm upgrading to DVR next month and want: Duo receiver (HD for TV1, SD for TV2) OTA tuner for TV1 Remote Access Access to 1080p DOD. Do both provide this? Is the picture quality the same?

Actually, it is Dish. I have emails from customer support saying that I should be getting the Braves games. I should only the Reds games if I sign up for the sports pack, which I am not subscribed too. Getting them to do anything about it is another story though...

What gets me is the problems they have with the sports they DO cover. For instance, on the alternate sports channels I am not allowed to watch the Braves. Atlanta is 200 miles away from me. On the other hand, I can watch the Reds on the Alt channels. Cincinnati is 380 miles away from me.

The main reason I stick with Dish is because of the offers they have for existing customers. DirecTV does not come close. The best existing customer deals I have seen come from local retailers. I got a 'customer appreciation" flyer the other day that offers $10/m off for the next year, a free...

My installer told me the same thing a couple months ago, not that Dish has a history of keeping their installers well informed on things like this.

I actually live in Mills River (28759). Nobody knows where that is at, so I usually say I am from Hendersonville. I got the channel today, so all is good now.

I do not know your situation there. In my case Dish Network has been telling me for years that I could not have channel 437 (SportSouth) because of FCC regulations, even after showing them that directv and my local cable provider offer the same channel to my zip code. Finally I had to call...

Sweet Victory! 4 days after the FCC complaint I finally have my channel. So sad that I had to go through all of this. It could have been much easier if they would have just listened to me.

Ok, so I finally did what I should have done a couple years ago... I sent a message to the FCC asking why they prohibit Dish Network, and only Dish Network, from providing me with this channel. I explained to them that this does not seem fair that they allow DirecTV and Mediacom to offer this...

I've always felt like the Classic 200 Silver + SilverHD addon was the best value for the channels provided. I currently have classic 250 gold and am giving my family the month to decide if it is worth the extra $10 a month or if they would rather have premium channel. Boomerang and Encore...

I got this for about $27 shipped on ebay. You have to hunt for the right deal, but it works. I'm a little disappointed in the flexibility of the DishComm system. I should be able to use just 1 homeplug connected to my router, but I have to use 2. The technology is there in the box, they were...

At least you have your RSNs. I'd settle for the SD channels I am supposed to get.

I got an email from Dish Quality, who was very nice, but still was not able to help me. I keep getting the same standard form answer about zip codes. Nobody will comment on actual geographical locations. I highly doubt that it is against FCC regulations to provide me with this channel when...

$150 for the 'upgrade' doesn't seem right. I got my 222k installed for $100 just a month ago, it sounds like you do not even need installation.
