I'll start watching CBS programming again now that it's back on Dish, but will not go back to watching any local programs on WBNS. I'm done with them.

Same here. I called customer service and they didn't know what a USB OTA TUNER is.

Thanks Scott. With Dish fighting with the CBS affiliate in Columbus and the new season of programming ready to launch, the sooner the better for me.

Is there seriously any estimate as to when the OTA tuner will be available?

I could really use that OTA tuner for my Hopper. We lost our CBS station in Columbus, Oh due to a fee fight. It's been going on for a couple of weeks with no end in sight. I'm in favor of Dish resisting these large fee increases but it would sure be easier to weather the storm with an OTA tuner.

I tried to connect my 622 to the internet for the first time yesterday using a HomePlug. Even though it's rated at up to 85MBPS it connected at 19MBPS. It took 7 hours to download "The Beast" in 1080P and when I tried to watch it the picture jumped all over the screen. I expected it to take...

Any word on when the 722K will be available?

Does the 622 also have a Homeplug built in?

Once there is no longer both analog and digital signals transmitted from the local stations, wouldn't there be more bandwidth available for Dish to use in carrying additional local HD.

I'm typing this with one hand and knocking on wood with the other because 4.09 seems to have fixed my OTA issues. However, I haven't tried recording anything since receiving the software update. I really hope they didn't fix one issue only to break something else.

Well it looks like L405 didn't fix my OTA problem after all. Back to watching American Idol in standard def. Too many signal losses OTA.

I did notice some improvement with the OTA signal problem that I have been experiencing but it is not fixed completely. During American Idol last night we lost the signal once and experienced some short bursts of picture break up. Not as bad as it has been recently but still not completely fixed.

I'm not sure how I got the update, but I sure hope it fixes my OTA issues!

I received L405 at 6:30 am. I may have received it because I contacted Dish last week to complain about the OTA issues that I've been having since the release of 4.01 and 4.03.

Count me in. I live in Columbus, Ohio and started having trouble with the OTA signal of our local FOX station as soon as the 4.01 upgrade took effect. There was some improvement with 4.03 but the picture is still far from stable. HELP!!!!
