    Upgrading...

    They don't have to run new cables. The cable that feeds the box runs through a switch. The signal comes back out of the box, and back through the same cable that it is being fed with, and is hooked up to the second T.V. where all of your cables split. Then the second T.V. is just fed through the...

    Upgrading...

    If you go with one HD, and one SD, which will be done with one receiver 222k, your bill would actually decrease by $7 per month,because your 1st box is free. That one receiver runs both T.V's. One being in HD, and the other SD. You could sign up for HD free for life, which just requires...

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I remember seeing a list of Fox networks that would be affected by the dispute. Can't seem to find it. I'm sure it is somewhere here in these 200 pages, but if someone has it and could post it again, I would appreciate it.

    Want PA locals instead of NY

    I forgot to mention about the HD being much better. When I switched back it really made quite a difference in the quality. If Dish pulls Fox, it is my understanding that not all areas will lose them. (Not sure if I am correct). I thought that I saw a list somewhere on the forums of the local...

    Want PA locals instead of NY

    Funny to see this thread pop up as I have just moved back to NY. I couldn't take the terrible news cast of WNEP anymore. How in the hell they keep Joe Snedeker on the air in the morning is beyond me. I also really enjoyed seeing all of the great reporting Ryan Lackey does in the morning.:eek...

    Horrible First Experience with Dish

    I switched from Cablevision to Dish 2 years ago because of the slow cable boxes. You must have a defective receiver, because I have very little lag when changing channels. OP just needs to call Dish and have a different tech come out. As far as everyone on this board loving dish, just take a...

    OFFICAL: I am STAYING with DISH Network thread

    I'm staying. I just signed a new 2 year when they gave me my 2 211's in place of my 222. I like their hardware, and in my area, I can get the NFL redzone only with Dish. Cablevision is my cable company, and I have been seeing commercials stating that they may be losing Fox on the 16th of this...

    FX begins to feel the ratings effect.

    I've been enjoying the movie channel that we got in place of FX. I hope this lasts a while.
