    811 Color Problems

    When I watch my Sony 57" KPW510 through my Component cables the color is fine on both regular and hd channels. However, in order to change the aspect ratio to watch my non hd channels in another viewing mode i.e. wide zoom I have to use a composite input. In composite mode the color is horrible...

    811 no longer available thru Dish w/o buying HDTV in a box?

    811 If I were to call Dish network, would they give me the name and number of my installer? I would just as soon call now and find out if he has them in stock rather than wait a week to be disappointed. Also, I live in the city and am not to far from over the air towers (yellow zone), however...

    811 no longer available thru Dish w/o buying HDTV in a box?

    What should I expect? Hello, I'm new to this site. I only wish I would have found it sooner, it's very informative. As of Friday 12/19/03 I placed an order with dishnet for a free system including (1) 811 receiver, (1) 301 receiver and the dish. Being a new customer they gave me all of it for...
