I canceled Dish for the end of the month, and when I went to sign up for DirecTV they had when to schedule your installation... And one of the options was tomorrow morning between 8 and 12. I chose that, as it works with my schedule, but I remember having to wait 6 days or so last time we went...

Alright, I checked and it was on. Turned it off. Guess I'll find out in the next few hours, thank you for the suggestion!

Once again, I'm positive its the receiver, it only started doing this 3 months ago and every time you going into the settings it says that it is in 16x9 so then you have to switch it to 4x3, save it, and then go back to 16x9. I can't figure out what triggers the change, you'll just randomly...

Yes, I have gone through all settings on the TV and the only solution comes from the Hopper menus. I'm very positive it's on Dishes side.

It's definitely Hopper related, the only way to make it go back to HD is by doing what I described and going through the Hopper menus multiple times.

For the last three months, about 3-4 daily I have to go into settings/screen adjustments/HDTV and then manually select 4x3#2, select Save. Go back and then choose 16x9 and hit Save again. If I don't the format is WAY off, television and the menu. That's been the only solution I have found to...

So I have been thinking about getting NFL Sunday Ticket for about 3 seasons now, but the ends just couldn't justify the means... I went to Direct TV's website just now out of curiosity to see how much ST was... well it said "Order now for 5 payments of 59.99" and right below it was an...

So the other day I was watching tv, minding my own business when I was prompted that my channel would be switching over to record a scheduled show... This shouldn't have been since I wasn't recording anything else at the time so I look in set up and I see that Tuner 2 has no signal... so I...

Okay, I moved in July, was told by two different installers that due to the amount of trees in my backyard I wouldn't be able to keep my Direct TV programming. I went and bought a signal finder, found a spot, set up a pole and have had strong signal ever since. BUT I had to "move" because...

I hadn't heard that it was actually "in the works" just that it would have to a newly released receiver beings it was a hardware based issue.

I had a few questions about receivers... The lady is tired of having to share the TV in the living room (and I am as well) I was looking on eBay at some receivers but had a few questions... The first being if we just went with a standard HD Receiver, without DVR what is the current model...

Hey guys, I'm planning on adding a HD receiver for our bedroom and I went to directv.com and added it to my shopping cart. When I went to check out it said that it was 4.99 a month for the lease fee, which I understand. But then it says 9.99 for HD Access a month. I already pay 9.99 for...

I think it's an aiming issue, when I do the system setup all the transponders for the 101 are in the 90's while on 110 I have one transponder at 45 and on 119 they're all 0.

Nope, that was a couple months ago before we moved from our apartment, I finally got someone out that set up the dish at the old place, I'm not sure if tree blockage is causing me not too get 110 and 119 or what, but that was a different case...

Hi guys, I had a problem as I recently moved into my first house (I'm a home owner baby!) and had called to get our satellite moved over, well, the first people showed up and were there about 3 minutes and said "Nope, we can't help you, you might look into different service providers..." (They...
