Were the HD signals for the football games bad yesterday. On both tv's Samsung 50"dlp and Sharp Aquos 32" There was a lot of pixelation and out of focus pictures.

For about the last week the 211 has been acting up, whenever its left off for a long period of time I have to reboot and its only on the one television, other 211 is working just fine. I've checked all connections and really couldn't find anything also no error codes. Before I switch receivers...

Sorry, let me clarify. We had to add the second E* antenna because we lost our HD signal because of trees.

Can anyone tell me which direction and how high in the sky the D satellites are. I'm just south of Cleveland and had to have a second dish installed for HD aimed at 61.5 for my HD from E. In order to pickup HD locals I need a third antenna. Are there any solution from D to help me eliminate my...

Tech just came out and all is good! Luckily, we had a very wide opening in the tree line to install a second dish and move the HD to 61.5. By the way, this was done at no charge. Thanks everyone for their input and suggestions!

Where is 61.5 in relation to 129? Is it higher in the sky than 129? Its starting to look like I might have to make some adjustments with my chain saw, my property is three acres of woods so dropping a few trees or some creative pruning is no big deal.

Thank you all for your answers! Service is coming out Monday to see what options we have.

Looks like 129 is the problem and I suspect it is a tree issue. Until about 2 wks [no leaves] ago we had no issues. SS is 91-93 on 110 but little or nothing on 129. gdarwin mentioned having the dish repeaked, what is that?

I'm new here but have been learning alot from all the threads posted here. I've recently developed a problem with my HD signal and was wondering if someone could explain how I lose some HD signals but not others. For example, I can go to ESPN 9424 and have a great picture and about a 90-100...

So what you are saying is some of the local stations maybe playing hardball in working out a contract? Obviously, the local stations don't want to leave any money on the table but, if D... breaks off contract talks with the local stations as far as providing HD nobody really wins. Consumers are...

What is the situation? I would think that a company like Dish would have a tentative rollout schedule for all large markets in the works.

What a great forum you have here, I've spent the last couple of hours reading different threads, very entertaining! I've had Dish for about 3 yrs. now and recently upgraded to their HD package and though it provides great viewing I am quite disappointed because the local stations are only...
