Get to keep you around for awhile longer too :) but kudos I guess

Just wanted to update. I gotta give Dish another 2 thumbs up for service. The sent me out a rep free of charge cause I have been with them for awhile to hook up with DVR in my living room since I only have 1 cable there and a DP34 switch which doesn't allow for a separator. They came out I...

Did I ever say I was going to try that scam? Once I was told I had to wait 6 months to re-instate Dish I was over that plan. I never intended to pretend my wife or whatever wanted to sign up right away. Way to jump to conclusions though. But feel free to be angry in life if you want, I want...

Hey thanks for all the replies....so right now my only real option is changing the switch? If I read correctly. Do you know if I called Dish would they make the swap for me? At what cost?

I wasn't asking for sympathy or trying to scam anyone. Is it so wrong to try and cut back on expenses? You always this mean to people? Thanks everyone else for the help! Dish has been great in helping me customize my service to save some bucks.

Hey all, I am having trouble using a DP Plus Separator on my VIP 722. I have a Dish 1000 hooked up to a Dish Pro Videopath Multi-Dish Switch Model DP34 The Switch has 4 satellite outs. #1 is going to the main room w/ 722 #2 is going to a bedroom w/ HD receiver #3 & 4 are going to a master...

Really? How the heck did you manage that deal? What are you paying for the separate components? So I called a few more times and they said they couldn't do anything in terms of cost or anything. My DSL gave me a $5 dollar credit a month for 12 months though....so I am saving money somewhere.

Thats for all the suggestions guys !! :) I actually do have a Logitech 880 remote, and it worked fine but I am looking to change it and in the mean time felt that if I could get the Dish remote to work for volume it might be pretty nice :) I will try a few things

The local sports package is pretty sucky but its something. CSN Bay Area and CSN CA but only 2-3 hours (During games) does it come in HD. I guess for the extra $5 its ok

Sorry for being confusing :) The Logitech Z-5500 come with a Digital Amp that does have a controller for controller inputs and volume etc....sort of like a cheap receiver. So the only function the TV has is turning on and off. Dish does the channels and the Logitech system controls volume :)...

there are thousands of posts at the logitech forums for all kinds of remotes and harmony universal devices and speakers. But thanks for being so helpful

Hey all, I wanted to be able to program my Logitech speakers which are hooked up to my TV into the Dish remote to control volume....is this a pretty simple thing to do? I don't have any codes and searching didn't seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, thanks all for the replies :) The only channels we actually watch are our Locals, Discovery, Food, ESPN and maybe a couple others. So I def want to keep those and I want to keep HD otherwise I might as well get rid of TV all together. I am seriously debating going just TurboHD Bronze...

Ok here is what I was at before. $39.99 (Bronze Classic w/ Locals) $10.00 (HD Channels) $10.00 (Platinum HD) $5.00 (Additional SD Box Lease) $7.00 (Additional HD DVR Box Lease) $5.98 (DVR Service) $5.99 (Home Protection Plan) ----------------------------------- $86.03 Total after taxes After...

Not a lot they could do. Removed one of my receivers, canceled some programming etc but nothing in terms of deals. I did manage to chop the cost down to the 70s but I am a little bummed I could get a helpful hand for a little bit
