    Charlie Chat Caps & Bytes

    CSRs won't know squat about local HDs. Best bet is to call your Davenport affiliates and talk to their engineers. They will know if Dish is doing anything to get the local HDs up. fred

    Do I need to have an external Switch with a 1000.2?

    DISH already boosted your signal when they launched Ciel2 and replaced the old fading 129. Signals are up 20 points on some transponders. Ditch the dish 500 and align properly with your 1000.2 fred

    All these criteria have been met. The fiber signal has reached destination. We heard that a technical problem developed, may have something to do with the spot beam on 129 tr5. fred

    HD Upgrade without HD TV's

    Unless you're gonna buy two HD receivers that's the way it works. the Retailer (and Dish) will want a new 2 year agreement!!!! Call the local retailer back. He'll be there if/when you need help. It beats calling an 800 number. fred (fwiw, have you found a repair facility for that plasma...
