I am in the process of doing this right now. Paying $100 a month to E* while losing HD channels was not my cup of tea. SO I actually took a step back and looked what I actually watched: Specific TV series, usually DVR'd. I have netflix, Hulu, OTAHD, Various web sreams torrents and a HTPC for...

Got my invitation today. Thing is I didn't sign up for it. I already have a 722k and own a sling hd, so i'm not sure if it was just dumb chance or since I have both and both are dish properties they knew this and I fall in their wheel house for this beta or what. Stuck at the main screen with...

This a godsend for me as a E* sub and a Yankee fan. The only issue I have now is that I reside in Northeast Pennsylvania (blackout territory for New York teams) Wonder if I'd be able to run this though a proxy server to avoid the blackouts, or, even better, just create a Canadian PSN account and...

Luzerne. Used to like in Wayne like you, but down on southeren the tip of it in Gouldsboro.

No, the Dish company in my area get their own subs to cover ( understaffed maybe?) so it would not be my dime, at least that is what the tech told me. But hey, I guess it could be worse, I could be getting charged for programming that I'm not getting. Wait, huh? In the end it's just a little...

Just a little update, the installer came today, said there was too much snow on the roof to install (I didn't think so, but I can't force the guy up there) and rescheduled for Monday (hope the snow will be gone by then, well, hope for them , cause it's going up Monday hell or high-water)...

Thanks Iceberg, thought I saw them just on 110 on a different (maybe old) sheet, good to know. KAB, I'm concerned about SD locals cause I do have some older (non-hd) sets hooked up. I know what you can see the HD feed on a non-hd set hook up to the 722 or 211 but I did not want to deal with the...

Thanks Bobby, I new that I needed something to keep my SD locals but wasn't sure "how". Now, 1000.4 is eastern arc (61.5/72.7/77) correct? I've read about lack of signal strengths is an issue using that in my area (the northeast US), is that the case? Or does it come down to that combination...

Hey Guys, I'm in the "61.5/110/119" group and am looking to get setup for the new HD feeds. I'm scheduled to have a tech coming out for a new dish installation tomorrow and I have a few questions for all you experts out there as I'm not sure what the best route would be for me. I...

Quote from my earlier posts.

A little update to my earlier post, after reading kstuart's tutorial post about how to get the new HD if your on 61.5 I called back customer service, asked for a loyalty rep, told her what kstuart told me say with a bit of my own story sprinkled in, bing bang boom I'm good to go minus the dhpp...

Big time lurker, first time poster. Just got off the phone with dish after about an hour of back and forth. I'm ending up coming out of pocket 64 bucks in order to get 129 or EA. I'm at 110/119/61.5 now with what I believe is two 500's (Ones, a dual, but can't see the upper roof one duer to...
