    Hopper Upgrades

    Long time Dish customer. Finally got TV in MB so now I need to upgrade from a 722k and 622 (both leased now) servicing 5 TV's to at least 2 Hoppers and 2 Joeys. Please contact me to discuss upgrade pricing for my legacy account. Thank you!

    118/119 issues in NC?

    Seems to be a drift with my dish. Climbed on the roof and tweaked it a little bit. Will be installing roof mounts in a few weeks when I get some help. When will 118 be on 61.5? I use that over 129 and would be happy to go back to my Dish 500/Dish 300 setup since all that are on 118 are 4 locals...

    118/119 issues in NC?

    Anyone in NC having issues with 118/119 not showing up or is it just me LNB that might be screwed up? EDIT: Seems to be the LNB as the switch says there is a connection but no signal. Dish can't get anyone out here until Fri. morning.

    Is my EHD Toast?

    Two of mine have rings and two have bars ... all work fine. However, I did get one with a bar that did not work out of the box and had to exchange it for another. Just like with anything else these days, sometimes you get a lemon.

    Is my EHD Toast?

    I have 4 diff. WD drives I swap around and have not had any problems with them. Strange.

    Official I have L4.49 Thread

    Had the update for a few days and then starting two days ago I get random reboots. Dish should def. roll back to 4.48 and fire the testers of this release.

    If recording, will caller id be recorded?

    It does not record b/c it is not in the video stream. The Caller ID is part on the onscreen overlay which would not record except to an external recording device like a VCR.

    Cinemax for 1 year for .01 w/ autopay/paperless billing

    Did it online with a CSR. $.01/year with renew for 1 addl. year. So 2 years of Cinemax for $.02 as long as automatic bill pay and paperless billing are kept. Not a bad deal, though Starz would have been better. ;)

    3 Questions about the future

    1) It can be done with the new 622 software. 2) Probably not going to happen b/c Dish is tied to the content providers who demand no copying at all. 3) It is correct (actually I heard it was 5 times), but it is something they are going to fix in a future software release.

    Features Wishlist - My Recordings & External Hard Drive

    I would like the ability to watch shows on the external HD from the second TV! It is very annoying to have moved stuff there and then not be able to watch them from the second TV.
