I will try and order the DPP 64 switch in the fall. Thanks for all the info. I need the switch so I can get CBS HD West on 148 and the programs I subscribe to on 61.5, 110, 119 and 129. Right now I can only get CBD HD West when I disconnect 61.5 and hook up 148 and run a check switch...

I read on the Team Summit thread that Echostar announced a new DPP 64 switch for six satellite locations and four receivers. I need this switch. Where can I obtain one. I need to get 61.5 110 119 129 and 148. Currently I have a lead from 148 hanging unconnected. If I need 148 I remove 61.5 and...

DPP44 Working for 61.5, 110. 119 and 148 I was using an SW64 Switch cascading an SW21 and receiving 61.5, 110, 119 and 148. I ordered the promotion for the 811 including upgrade to DISH Pro technology and DPP44 switch in January. I waited until the DPP44 was available for installation. Finally...

Glad I did not purchase a 921 In the past I was always an early adopter. I purchased a new receiver when it came out. I am so glad I did not purchase a 921. I could have purchased it wholesale because I have a friend who is a dealer and was willing to sell it to me at his cost. I am in Denver...

Denver KCNC is back and so are CBS-HD E and W

All Viacom channels are up and running again

I get WCBS-DT (CBSHD-East) on 61.5, regular channels on 110 and 119 and some Denver Locals on 148 by using the SW64 and SW21 switches and cascading as described above. I feed into my 6000. Today I was told by a DISH Tech Rep that the SW 44 switch is now available for about $149

My 501 has the 105 and 121 added. However, my 6000 is still on 778.

When I get my 921 for my Mitsubishi WS-55805, I will move my 6000 to the bedroom to get HDTV on my small Samsung 17" flat screen hdtv. I will junk my 501 which is now in the bedroom or move it to another room. Then I will get Superdish and hope that the other Denver locals are on 105. I will be...

I have had a 6000 since they were first released and have never heard the fan on the 8VSB module.

IS THERE ANYWAY TO ADD DATES TO THE POSTS LIKE ON OTHER BOARDS

Telephone (303) 723-1000 for the main Corporate number of Echostar. Then 9 for Corporate Directory. Then key in the name of the person you want followed by # I edited this and removed any name of a real person. I meant my original to be an example of how to get into the corporate office...

I currently use a 64 switch and receive 61.5, 110, 119 and 148. I have locals on 148 so with SuperDish, I can probably drop 61.5 I cascade 148 and 61.5 with an SW21.

I paid $499 for my 6000 in June of 2000 and another $100 in November 2000 for the 8VSB module. So the current special is still cheaper than I paid in the begining.

Will a Dish Player 501 work with SuperDish? Is the 501 DishPro compatable?
