Awesome. Thanks for the input folks. I just wanted some of the details.

I am 8 weeks out of our new house being completed. I currently have a 622 and a 211. But in the new house, I will need at least 2 more receivers, both with hd capability. I don't really care about dvr capability in those. What is the cheapest way to accomplish this? If I buy them from...

So to clarify, I live in an area where I get FSN SW. If I want to watch a game that is carried on FSN South, I can subscribe to the sports package and get that? Or will this be blacked out?

We are having a related conversation in 2 different threads. Awesome. Thanks a bunch.

All but the 129. I remember having a specific conversation with a csr about that when I upgraded to my mpeg-4 receivers. Remember whey they were throwing that free upgrade to dish 1000 thing out there? They told me I wouldn't need one, that everything that was going on 129 would be mirrored...

mdonnelly, so is fsnsw carried on 129?

I had my wife check to see if FSNSW HD was on and there was no channel there. That one is up and running correct?

Hello all, I have a 622 in my living room and a 211 in the bedroom. I had an hdmi issue with my 622 about a month ago. Well documented, it just went out for no reason, then returned about a week later. I left component cables hooked up as well as the hdmi in case of future problems. 2...

I agree with the voom stuff. I don't watch those much. If I do, it is either rave or monster. My wife likes Ultra of course. Sometimes when I feel like a zombie, I'll watch gameplay.

hdmi output mysteriously returned about 3 days later. Just waiting for the crash again. Should I call Dish and tell them of the issue even if it has resolved?

Exactly one of my points. Pulling my wall unit out is not a piece of cake in order to troubleshoot this damn thing. I don't plan to be a software expert but I tend to agree with emtownsend. I don't think "this is a software issue with a fix in the works" I think that is a blanket shiek...

BUMP!!! Anyone chiming in with anything? I know there have been issues with these units and hdmi. Have there been mostly audio issues or video as well?

I haven't had any problems as of yet concerning the hdmi out on my 622-- until now I think. I have the audio hooked up to my receiver via optical and my dvd and vip running to my yamaha 2600 via hdmi. The dvd player is working okay. Audio plays fine through the receiver but no picture. I...

Well, I live 100 miles away from the locals and have been patiently waiting. Now I will be inpatiently waiting since my distance makes the "ota antenna promotion" worthless to me. I have had 2 installers tell me it doesn't matter what antenna I get, I won't be getting any hd locals out of OKC...

I have the 5x1 and 2x1 switch from monoprice and have been satisfied with both of them. Mine are the ones that have a remote, not manual. Good quality.
