Just called tech support to try to get the new HD. Currently have 110/119/61.5 wing. After telling them that I'm a 10 yr customer & they should upgrade me to eastern arc for free they said that there currently is a EA upgrade program for $1 and 2yr commitment, so I took it since I'm not going...

I have this problem on both my 622 & 211 so its not a receiver problem. I also have my locals via an antenna and the signal strenght on my antenna droped about 10% the last week.

Which mode should I use to go to my Yamaha 5760. Line mode or RF mode? I'm using the optical out for DD/PCM.

After Rocky the next movies were OK. I hoped they fixed the problem.

This past week I watched High Society, Oliver and I'm now watching Rocky and the brightness on this channel is up really high. The colors are all washed out. I have to drop the brightness on my 60"SXRD about 9 clicks. All my other channels are normal. I called Dish to let them know about it...

I would love a PS3

Well it finally happened, the HDMI went out on my 211. First green screen, than nothing. The 211 is almost 1 year old. I called tech support & they offered to send out a replacement immediantly. Wow, no hassel.

Jimmy One question I have Is if I were to upgrade one of my 811's would the other one still be able to pick up the MPEG2 HD.

I'm not going to upgrade my two 811's that I own until DISH offers two 211's for no upgrade fee and I get to own them with no lease fee. In the mean time DISH will not get anymore money from me to get any more HD. I already get all my locals off my antenna so all I'll be missing is the 5 new...

Sold!!!

Price drop. Now $50.00 shipped.

I have for sale a 4900 reciever with Blue IR remote that works perfectly. Used in a second bedroom about 5 hours/week for about 2 years. Reciever was just upgraded to the yellow card. No balance on the card. The 4900 has Dish Home and has an optical out which will give you Dolby Digital 5.1...

I didn't see my credit so I called. The CSR told me it is only for 811's purchased in Nov,2004. I've had mine since Nov, 2003 with the Hd pak. I can't believe they aren't giving it to me when I've had the hd pak for almost 2 years.

Yes. I have this problem since 269 with my 811 using s-video on SD programing.

I'm also getting the studdering on SD stations via S-video.
