    New ViP622 OTA Tuner Question

    Anybody know what revision/level of tuner the newest ViP HD receivers have for OTA. I wasn't very impressed with the 811 tuner...it worked, but locked up a lot. Others in the area (W-NW Detroit Suburb) get much better ATSC reception with dedicated tuners. Just in case, I have a CM3018...

    What HD channel would you get rid of if you had to?

    I'd keep TNT-HD at least during the second half of the NASCAR season since that is where NBC dumps the races they don't want but has by contract...at least its only for 1 more year.

    New DishHD Packages to be added February

    Let Dish downres Food HD to 720p...just make up for it by giving us the smell of what they are cooking in place of the saved video bandwidth

    New 811 Software P3.30

    Lost Guide Info I've been willing to put up with all the headaches to date in the name of progress...and have been supportive of Dish so far, but what is the deal with "No Info"?

    811 P285/P287 Software Update

    Can't say I've had this problem with my 811s, both have v287. I keep local digital and HD channels in the same Favorites list without problem. Or maybe not...since I have had weird pixilation when going into menus, but it has not locked up since the first week after the 287 download...

    Phillips 34PW8502

    I have this same model TV (for about 1 year now). Only major complaint is that it can't hold vertical geometry well. I can set it perfect on a test screen and also using other images only to have the next show I watch severly bleed over the "Normal" 4x3 boxes or skewed vertical lines. It is...

    Detroit CBS HD Signal Question

    Can someone help me with a problem I am having with only my CBS HD Station? Using a Dish 811 (which was already replaced by Dish once), a CM 3018 rooftop antenna, and a CM 4-way amplifier, I can consistently pull all of my local HD OTA signals in with 85-90% signal strength - except for...
