    CW Network

    Where did you see or here this ? I called to check and they told me that CW was not offered as a distant network in SD or HD. The only way to get it is if it is available in you local channels.

    "Moving" to Philly from CT

    I currently do not have Direct but am thinking of changing so that I can get the Philly HD locals. Could someone tell me if this is a one dish setup ?

    Ok I'm Getting Ready to Change My Service Address

    How far can you be from an area and still receive there signal ? I live in Wellsboro,PA 16901. The closest locals they list are in Philadelphia, PA. (about 200 miles South East of me) Would I be able to get the Philadelphia locals if I "Moved" there ?

    "Moving" to Philly from CT

    I have been reading about people "Moving" to get local channels. How far can you be from an area and still receive the signal ? I live in Wellsboro, PA 16901. The closest area to me that has locals is Philadelphia, PA. If I "Moved" would I be able to receive the Philadelphia local channels ?

    No OTA channels available. I do not even get the networks (ABC/NBC/CBS) to many mountains.

    CW Network

    Does DirectTV have any channels that broadcast the CW network ? They do not have locals in my area. I am eligable for distant locals but they do not list the CW network and we watch that channel a lot. Thanks

    Would Losing Distant Nets Cause You to Switch to DirecTV?

    I too would like to see a poll of people that have no choice. I live in a rural area in PA that cannot receive over the air signals and locals are not currently offered (and I don't think they ever will be). Hell, I don't even have cable available. My only choice for the networks is distant...

    EPG issues with 522 and L291

    I have the same problem. The EPG only shows info for the next hour. After that it says NO INFO AVAILABLE. Rebooting hasen't helped. This just started when I received the 2.91 upgrade.

    942 Installation Question

    I currently have a DVR 522 with a Dish 500. I just purchased a new Sony SXRD HD TV. If I was to get a 942 so I could get the HD programming, is it just a receiver swap ? Can I just unhook the 522 and hook up the 942 without changing anything outside on the dish ? Also what would be required to...

    DVR522 verses DVR625 noise

    Same here. Mine runs most of the time now. Hardly ran at all before the last update.

    DVR 522 USB Port Question

    It would be GREAT if we could use the usb port to add external hard drives. If they would do this it would make the possible disk storage space unlimited ! Joe

    522 w/ L2.36 --> Hard Drive Diagnostics ?

    I have gotten it twice since the update. Never had it before. Both times I was doing a search. The searches seamed like they were taking a long time then I would get the diagnostic screen.

    522- where to send patch HELP/requests??

    I have to disagree ! The padding is NOT taken away. I am running in single user mode and if I schedule two programs on the same channel that run back to back and leave the default padding the first show is set to TV1 the second show is set to TV2 and if I try to schedule a third on a different...

    2.33???

    I got it the other night to. Recorded two shows last night and the video was fine BUT the audio dropped out about every 10 to 15 seconds. Totally unwatchable. My boot strap is 1414GALD. Will see what happens tonight. Joe

    Single Mode

    That's how it should work. BUT the info bar does not change when in single user mode. It always shows TV1.
