    Dish HD equiptment question.

    Thanks for the replies. I have tried "moving" back and having Dish fix it but they refuse to because HD locals are not in my area yet, but I just thought about the fact I haven't argued about Voom. Are they all on the same sat? The zip code for the area is 2835.

    Dish HD equiptment question.

    Local channels problem.

    I recently "moved" to another address with my Dish Network system. I currently have 3 receivers with my setup, the one I am having problems with is the VIP211. When I "moved" my local channels came in on my other 2 boxes but not my VIP211. Before I "moved" I had local channels on my VIP211 but I...

    HD Local Channel Question

    I live in NC and have the Raleigh local channels on Dish Network and I think my NBC station is out of Charlotte.
