First thing I did was to do a search... I did a search and it's not immediately obvious what channels one gets with what packages with the latest programming churns. My Dish Network installation gets the following Satellites (2 dish setup with 1 big parabolic dish). 119, 110, 61.5 and 121...

I might jump to one of the Turbo HD packages but only if KBS World (SD Channel 652) is available with them. So Do the Turbo HD packages include other channels or are they truly HD only? According to Dish, KBS America is Available in: A LA CARTE-KBS WORLD AMERICA'S...

If they call again... Do me a favor and tell them you left Dish because you want to see Yankee games and there's no YES on Dish. ;) Who knows since it's not likely they'll ever have YES they'll leave you alone. I recently got a marketing call from Dish (trying to sell me additional...

Hmmm... I can do a Menu, 6, 4 and within 5 seconds do a Info, Browse, Theme to get into the memory dump screen but I cannot get my 622 to do a DST. Pause,1 Pause,2 Pause,3 doesn't do anything. Is there a trick to this?

Another reason to avoid roof mount... aesthetics... Aesthetics is a matter of personal opinion but I've always found ground/post mount less noticeable and distracting than any appendage stuck to the roof/side of the house. Depending on where the dish is located on the yard (behind bushes...

SMART Status 0 Start Fail Status 2 EFS RW Count Fail 1 Hi Temp 120 Low Temp 104 Average Temp 111 DVR playback now practically unusable... freezes then requires a re-boot.

A year and a half old as well... Can't tell you if it started with 4.49 but I first noticed it ~ 2/20.

622 Behaving flaky... bad Unit or bad firmware? After a year and half of trouble free operation, my 622 is misbehaving. I came back from vacation on 02/20 and turned it on and got a message that my hard drive data was corrupted and that all data on the drive would be rebooted. After getting...

Me too... Unfortunately I am seeing the same exact problem on my 622. What gives?

Been a while since I rented an apartment but I'm pretty sure I signed a 1 year LEASE, not a 1 year rental. Again... a poor analogy.... different items/services and different expectations. It really depends on one's perspective: The Dish Network equipment in my house gives Dish Network...

But let's be fair... The whole media/communications industry is bizzaro world where their own customers get the worst or no service and their competitors customers get the best service. Bizarre isn't it? Absolutely no benefit for loyalty.

Because my local cable companies do not make the customer pay for a broken receiver, a cable modem or a IP phone equipment. Because I have a TV set that complies with the FCC requirements for SDTV, DCT and HDTV but dish (and the cable companies) require additional equipment for them to have the...

Multi-Room-HD DVR... Please...

Sure... but now I have to figure out how to install the box on my wall mounted LCD. I fished the coax and ac, where/how I place the box is going to be a pain in the A$$.

Dang! This whole tuner/settop box/cablecard mess... could they make it any more difficult and complicated for the consumer?
