    The Walking Dead season premiere - Timer not detecting?

    Holy crap, you're right. I set it up and never checked that it took. Just checked and nothing. I went and selected it and clicked Record This and it is now showing up in the schedule.

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    1. Favorite Features: Large DVR, multiple tuners, HD in every room, quick navigation of the menus (mostly, sometimes guide response to a button push can be slow). Auto hop is great, unfortunately it is only with the PrimeTimeAnytime programs. 2. Biggest issues: My biggest issue is when watching...

    TurboHD Dish - 211 Receiver - Help with Best Practice for tailgating setup

    Thanks Indy. I have my eye on the Tailgater. But, by the time we got it back, we'd only have 4 home games left to use it. So, I think we'll probably just order it next year.

    TurboHD Dish - 211 Receiver - Help with Best Practice for tailgating setup

    First off, thanks for any help you all can provide. We had our first tailgate last weekend (Go Iowa State!) and are preparing for one of the biggest of the year against rival Iowa. We’ll probably spring for the 211k and the Tailgater next year, but since we’d only have it for 4 games, figure it...

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    I had my install on Tuesday. The installer was Dave from Blue Sky. He was awesome. My previous installer never grounded it so he reworked the entire thing. The picture quality is very good. When I compare it to antenna it is nearly impossible to tell the difference. It is awesome to be...

    Is it actually a wing dish? Does it attach to the current dish or are there new holes in your house?

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    They told me it was a new dish with new holes. But, that isn't what "wing-dish" implies. So, there may be some differences to what the CSR told me and what actually happens. I'd like to know for sure though, because my wife may be opposed to more holes. I don't exactly like it, but I...

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    I just got a call back from Dish. They said they are going to wave the $99 fee for installation because of my inconvience (their systems werent working well). I'm setup for an install on Tuesday, 10/28. Sounds like $59 is a good price. It's too bad they won't install EA for us.

    Ok. Just got off the phone. Off topic, the woman that helped me, Jessica, was extremely nice and helpful. I asked about getting Eastern Arc installed and was told that only new HD customers are getting that. I didn't push the subject any further. But, I did ask if my area was a single dish...
