I live in Newark Ohio. I really don't think that I can get a look at the DirectTV sat's either. I had 2 dishes for the Dish sat's. one for 110/119 and the other for 129 and trees grew in the way of both. I was ok with it at first, because I kept seeing Time Warners HD line up that was...

I had no more place to move the Dish, the trees just got to big :mad:. I have been a dish customer for over 6 year and was really enjoying the HD line up. But now I had to switch to Time Warner and thier HD line in my area is terrible. I have less than 1/2 the HD I had before. I tried to find...

First, I have a 622 which I have had for a couple of years. Last night I was watching Idol on the my Columbus locals which on 129. It keep popping up I last signal on 129 spot beam 4. This is the odd part. It would not go away until I hit guide, as soon as I hit guide the picture would come...

Columbus market gets Fox Sports Cincinnati, Fox Sports Ohio and Sportstime Ohio(STO) so we get Reds, Indians, Cavaliers, and Blue Jackets professional sports coverage.

I have a Linksys wireless g ethernet bridge. I know that it is communicating with the wireless router. I have it set to obtain ip address from router. When I try to set up the broadband connection through the 622 it is not finding it. Any suggestions?

I have a few DISH receivers gathering dust in the basement and I don't know if they have any value. I have 2 2700's, 1 -4700, 1- 811 and 1- 6000 with both adaptors. Are these worth anything and if they are where would be the best place to get sell them?

I know that I am getting them from 129. I had the superdish removed. I did talk to a rep and told him that, but I am still getting phone calls from dish, saying they have an Important message and I need to schedule someone out to repoint my dish.

I keep getting a recorded message that *E needs to come out and repoint my dish because my locals are moving. I am currently getting them off of 129, I originaly had them from 105. Are they moving them off of 129 or does dish think I still have a superdish pointed to 105??

Here is a good website that will tell you what kind of antenna that you will need. AntennaWeb

I e-mail ceo@echostar.com about having to make an 18 month committment for something that they were changing. The lady that called said there should be no additional committment and she would be sending out 2 211's to replace my 811 and 6000 at no cost.

I just got done with my 18 month upgrade for the 622. I tried to explain to the specialist that I am happy with my 811 and 6000 and if THEY weren't taking away something from me I would need to upgrade, he agreed, but wouldn't budge. Remember when they got us to buy the adapter for the 6000...

I just got off the telephone with them and there was no mention of the contract extenstion until I got to the automated confirmation. This lasted about 3 mintues and the last part said I was agreeing to 18 months, which I did not commit to. Talked to an account specialist and he told me either...

I have had the 622 for about a year and up the last software upgrade I had no problems getting my local channels wcmh-dt and wtte-dt. But now I get constant drop outs on wcmh with a signal strength in th high 70's and I am getting nothing on wtte. I can get a signal strength in the setup menu...

Starz HD, National Geographic and are listed on dish's website. Are the available to viewers yet?

I have noticed that Columbus Ohio is not on list to receive HD locals anytime soon annd I was if this is because Sincliar Broadcasting owns the ABC and Fox affiliates. Those 2 stations have not come to aggrements with Time Warner, Insight and Adelphia to rebroadcast their DT channel and I...
