The banner now directs you to sign up for a beta tester...just as a heads up.

they are preselected by echostar...I suppose working there can't help much, I'm not myself, but I know a couple that are.

The timers via dishonline.com are for beta testers only right now, those testers have been given the appropriate "tokens." -Andrew

if you have the equipment installed and have the R00 and S00 numbers(read by pressing menu twice on most receivers), you can call in and sign up for a "Direct no discount" promotion. Basically means you did the install all you need is the service. Hope this helps.

You can do a diagnostic test - Go to Menu -> System Setup -> Diagnostics -- Select connection, it'll tell you if it's working or not.

It's your warranty(in home service plan = IHSP) -- 5 a month and free replacement/service calls... -Andrew.

SkyAngel comes off the 61.5 Satellite, if you replace the one you have right now w/ 119 and 110, you won't have Sky Angel anymore, Just add the dish as an additional and get a switch...

If the tech needs to come out again, have him check the grounding block. If you unplug all of your receivers hooked up to the same dish(es), it will in turn reset the lnbf, and release all static elecricity in the lines. elecricity=bad. Most likely a grounding issue. good luck

If this problem is only happening during the day, then go to Menu 6-1-1 then select check switch, post what it says for installed device. Odds are you might have a heat-sensitive lnbf(the 'eyes' on the dish). I would recommend running the test from that page when you ARE getting the signal, that...

It will not go to tv2 when you're in dual mode on the 622, if you put it in single mode(mirror image on both tvs) it will work. No way to make the 322 do it, though.

You can disable the hi-def locals from the mapdowned version(ch 7, 14, ect). If you set them to standard def, it should fix the stuttering issue, only if you want to though...I would recommend getting the ota antenna if you really want them in hd.

First press menu, then go to number 7(Daily Schedule), then go to Timers, then to manual timer, set the frequency, the duration of the recording, then the channel, then set the time.....then you're set booya.

888-333-DISH isn't the number, it's 800. The call routing is random. We only have two of 11 call centers overseas. You must remember though, we offer international programming, so, there's international customers.

after a while, the actual replacement is 19.99(the most i've seen w/ a lease), but you still have to pay shipping. Get on someone's good side, and they'll waive it. Dhpp, you don't have to pay anything for a replacement, but you do have to pay 29 for a service call(i hate it). You don't have to...
