Big bad luck with my smart card. I called in January when a station I pay extra for had a message that said I would not longer be able to view it after Feb 11, 2009 unless I installed a new smart card. I called the number and the nice lady Mary transfered me to a ringing phone that disconnected...

Scoop I found on a German language site the scoop on this. The channel has budget issues and has quit packaging current shows for the USA and Canada markets. They will concentrate their budget on the German market. The Dish DVR program guide still does not match what is being broadcast. There...

Wierdness has sunk into this channel from Dish. The program guide is worthless because the shows change. I can't program the DVR because the show Dish says will play never plays - some other show is broadcast. The Dish internet site shows many hours of "to be announced". My emails to them are...

I've just got Dish in February and bought the service package at $5.95 a month for repairs. With leaves filling in on a neighbors tree reception had gotten bad over the past couple months. I'm down to 50% of my signal. I get no channels now. Of 4 sats, my receive says only 119 is working. The...

Wow, that's nice. Thanks too. I have my install this weekend and that would work for me too. The CSR told me the 622 has a jack for a OTA antenna. Can I use this to get my locals without subscribing to them and then still be able to record them on the 622?

I am interested in ordering Dish for a few international packages. I have one coax cable going down from my attic to two rooms. Can I hook both a Windgard ms-2000 and the Dish feed into the same coax cable? I want to use a HD set for over-the-air and the Dish (I know the international stuff is...

Any word on if U-Verse will offer channels from other countries as Dish/Echostar offer. My interest is in Europe (German, Polish, Italian,...). I'm quite interested in the new Sony Internet ready TVs too.

I've read around this site for a week and have a few questions before I call and order - I'm not sure about the competence of the Dish phone center from some posts here. I want to get the German TV package (2 channels ) and the Polish Package ( 2 or 3 channels, I'm not interested in the Polish...
