Similar issues. Just get a new 722 with mpeg4 on it. It has either no DVR, I go through the reset procedure...unplug 1 minute, etc...and it starts for a while then freezes. Reboot, no DVR, same procedures, works for a while and then stops again. The 722 has only been here about 1 month...

My DVR 622 has started blacking out once in awhile. While watching, it goes black, sometimes with voice, sometimes without. A few times there is a picture and no sound. I reboot it and it works for awhile but then starts up again. I lease the system (started late July last year). Is...

Yes. 18 month contract. I just wish that locals were all HD without antenna. I am still evaluating whether to go to Comcast, DTV or just stay put. I do like the 622 but we have had to reset it 5 times in 2 weeks now. We keep losing the sound from it. But that is another issue...

I admit the DVR is nice. Got to look at the whole picture. Right now I am using Verizon FIOS for internet, no TV available in my area yet. I have Vonage for phone, not counting the cell phones. And E* for TV. When it is all added up, that is about $170/month. Maybe the Comcast triple...

Oh they are leased...no selling the boxes. I just wish that E* would come into Harrisburg with HD locals. Any idea when that might be. I looked at the list they had (somewhere) and didn't see anything close to Harrisburg, PA. I will also call them to see if I am under contract. I really...

I got Dish around 7/29/07. Is there a 1-yr commitment or can I cancel at anythime. I have a 622 and 625 but need to use an antenna in the Harrisburg, PA area to get the HDs. I am thinking of getting Direct because they offer HD is this area and Dish doesn't look like they plan to anytime soon...

Mechanicsburg, PA, USA I like it.

It's been awhile since I visited. I know DTV usually lists future expansion cities but I can't find that list. First question: Anyone have any idea when Harrisburg is going to get Locals in HD? Second question: I do have an antenna (from when I had Dish, now with Comcast). I want...

It looks like the twin. Two heads. But the receiver won't power on anymore and I don't believe the LNB is the reason for that. Pete

I have an 811 receiver and for several weeks, I kept getting the "we have detected a multiswitch error" message. DISH has been out 3 times. First time, tech switched ports and it cleared up the problem. That lasted about one week. Second time, tech (not the same as the first) ran the test...

That's what I was afraid of... Thanks, Pete

Am I obligated for the HD package too? I think that is what they told me but couldn't find it in writing anywhere. Thanks, Pete

I have had Dish for a couple of years but moved in Sept and took advantage of the "free" location/dish mover offer. I than upgraded on of the receivers to an 811 in November. Yes I rent them all. I was told that I have to commit to one year on the HD package and if that wasn't in effect...

Yeah, I saw that. Coming about a week or so late but welcomed anyway.

Thanks, guess I need to keep the antenna hooked up.
