OK. Good to know. I'll just stick to my original order.

I just called to upgrade my 622s. I ordered two hoppers (one with sling), and 3 joeys. They said I could only get a super joey if I had 1 hopper on the account. Can this be modified. My appt is tomorrow (wed). I'd like 2 hoppers, super joeys and joey. Or better yet If I can get 3 hoppers...

Yep, too cumbersome. I used to my old OFA 10820 and it's macros. It's flawless now. Maybe they'll have a IR to Zigbee adapter that would do this for us losers who don't like change.

I did a little searching, but couldn't find an answer. Will the Hoppers/Joeys ever be updated to utilize the 32 different IR remote addresses like the older receivers??? I was going to upgrade, but I was told they are all on "1" when you enable IR. My installation would require all the...

I can't do that. the station runs at 100% full power from the main transmitter on top of Slide Mountain, NV (SW of Reno). No translators/repeaters in my area as I can see all but one of them for my area.

The channel hasn't technically been pulled. It's just running a continuous loop of the dish lady speaking their side of the dispute. The title of all the program slots on this channel are "Important News - Press Info! " The info shows "This channel is currently suspended. Sarkes Tarzian is...

I have about 4 of those stations as well. I spoke too soon, the subchannel info is gone now.

Ok, this is getting ridiculous. Can you folks at Dish uplink the guide data separately for this channel (2-01) so my timers can fire on the OTA station while you work the retransmission agreement? The subchannel (2-02) has guide data. I can't see why you can do the same for the main channel...

The good news in this week's uplink is KNPB HD is live in the Reno Market. Bad news is our CBS station KTVN is not due to the Sarkes deal gone bad. I wish they'd send the guide data so I can use the OTA feed while they work things out. The 2-02 sub channel is getting guide data I don't know...

I can watch it KTVN (Reno CBS) OTA, but there's no guide data because dish is running the nag loop. I wish they'd at least publish that info so I can record my shows by name. I'm going to have to figure out old school manual timers now.

When I called KNPB a couple years back, they've been giving Dish the HD feed for a while. Not sure what the issue really is. You should see the amount of black on the SD version. You have to "zoom" to get the 4:3 image. Can't wait. Hopefully "soon" isn't never.

I wonder how long it takes to go from NA to available. I been watching the uplink reports more closely since KNPB (HD) was uplinked on Oct 5.

There's a mountain in the way. I've tried. I can get reception 800ft west when I can see the tower around said mountain.

Ditto that. I'm tired of the chopped up picture. I'm 800ft out of range for the OTA signal. Hopefully it's Available soon.

Scott, My 17" HP laptop just did the same thing in the last couple weeks. It's not the screen, but the video chipset failing on the motherboard (integrated). There is a class action suit against HP and Nvidia regarding these failures. The NVIDIA GPU Litigation - Affected Models My laptop...
