    My favorite memory is playing racquetball with my friends Dave and then going to Taco Bell afterwords to grab a snack.

    Team Summit Pics Video and Live Recap!

    I am assuming you meant absolute there, and yes, I knew that. Good reminder for people though

    Team Summit Pics Video and Live Recap!

    So since we did not have the documentation before when assumptions were made about "all packages", it looks as though Dish Family and Dish America are not included. The image says AT120, AT120 plus, AT200, AT250, DishLATINO Dos, and DishLATINO Max. I am assuming everything pak is also covered...

    Proper way to strip/terminate RG6?

    Also I have found that if you strip off too much of the rubber part you will get a bad compression as well. You only need to strip off maybe 1/4 of an inch to expose the inner part and make threading the connector on easier before you compress it. Otherwise the compression part has nothing (or...

    Just switched to Dish: First impressions and a few questions

    There is a screen saver that will kick in eventually, but I don't know if there is a way to set the timer on it. And by eventually, I'm talking in the realm of several hours.

    Message: Losing HGTV and Food TV

    Those DNS servers are for Scripps Network Interactive though, so who knows. (although the domain itself doesn't resolve to a page on my browser, might just be for dns. Can't ping it either)

    Dead HDMI replacement

    So my 722's HDMI died a week or two ago, and I switched over to the Component cables, but I'd really like to get it back. Literally it was working one day, and not the next. All nice and ventilated in the cabinet too, no one was mucking around with the cords at all. How good is Dish about...

    dish dual tuner for HD?

    So for the record, all the dual tuners boxes that we have right now are dual HD *tuners*, there are not dual HD *output's* though. I know that is what you were asking, for dual HD output, but both tuners in all the dual HD boxes can record HD shows, it's just that HD will only output on TV1

    Does anyone have this Package?

    I had this discussion here a while back. For those who think it cannot be done, if you go into your account and click on the button that allows you to choose your programming, it is one of the options. If I remember the consensus correctly it was that you would not get the channels in the...

    DishFamily w/ Classic Bronze + BronzeHD package question

    It does to a point, but at the same time it doesn't. If you lock it out or place limits, you can still go flip the switch on the receiver to show them again. Yes, they are generally not there, but they could be. All it takes is four little numbers which aren't that hard to brute force. Just...

    DishFamily w/ Classic Bronze + BronzeHD package question

    I've considered that too. What I really like about the dish family package is that is blocks at a top level the adult programming from even showing up in the guide. It's not that it's locked out and you have enterprising kids who can try and get around it, it's simply not even there for them...

    DishFamily w/ Classic Bronze + BronzeHD package question

    There seems to be a bundle thing where you get both. I'd post a link, but it wouldn't work since it's a page in your account screen, so I will tell you how to see what we are talking about. Log in to your account at http://www.dishnetwork.com Click on the programming link on the left hand side...

    DishFamily w/ Classic Bronze + BronzeHD package question

    I have this same question, and no, the programming list does not help as it doesn't list dishFamily on their thing

    At Wits End - Snowy TV 2

    If the run is longer, you may need to put a signal amplifier in the middle too (close to the source where the signal is strongest). I have a 622 and a 722 and the runs from them to TV2 via coax are really long. Without signal amps in the middle (I just got the cheapest one at radio shack)...

    Is there anyway to watch live tv while recording a show on dish dvr?

    If one is on the OTA tuner, you can watch that (or record that) and watch the other while she is still watching tv2. (there are actually three tuners in the dish DVR's)
