    Is anyone else still getting the free cinemax past the thirty days? They told me that they would cut off automatically but still there.

    72.7 signal droppind

    72.7 signal dropping I read a thread about Dish going back to WA from EA in certain areas. I am in NE NC and Dish switched me from WA to EA and now my signal on 72.7 has gone from a high of 56 to a high of 30. On WGN it is 20 on a clear day and so if it gets cloudy, good bye WGN. Why has the...

    Added 722K cannot get the free Starz

    I asked the first young lady to try it but she walked me through what I had already tried. Told me that she was turning it over to someone else that would contact me within 48 hours. I did not realize that my daughter was on her computer chatting with support and they are the ones that set up...

    Added 722K cannot get the free Starz

    I recently added a 722K to go along with the 222K. The 222K has the Starz free preview but the 722K does not. I have HD for life and get all the other channels. I called support and she tried to get them by rebooting and also check switch but could not get them to come online. She said that she...

    repeats

    No, just someone that should have not put a post about how he feels about so many repeats. I didn't realize that I would be bent over for my post. I apologize for posting it. Again; have a great day, you've got a great day for it.

    repeats

    I realize everything said by everyone. I just needed to vent somewhere and I knew my comments would draw a bunch of smart answers from a bunch of smart people. Have a great day, you've got a great day for it. I really wasn't complaining about Dish; just about all the repeats on every station.

    repeats

    I know why people like DirecTv; most of the ballgames are not repeats. Everything is a repeat on every station with Dish. Two and a half men is all the way back to 2005. The NFL channel did show the replays of all the preseason games and that kept us busy. Oh well us old folks always have our...

    locals on 129

    I live in NE NC and had to have a 500 dish installed to receive HD locals from the Tidewater VA area. They were coming in on 61.5 and I had a high signal. Today out of the blue they are on 129 and a very low signal. Is this a permanent change or will they change back? anyone's help is...

    Should I?

    Thanks much for the replies. I thought maybe someone knew if 129 is now strong on the east coast. I will give it a try after another week or two because it's 27 here now and that dish is right in the direction of the cold wind. Again thanks, Shelton

    Should I?

    I live in NE NC and on the advise of several of you, I covered up the 129 on my 1000.2 and use the 61.5 to get my HD and locals. It worked great and now that 129 is now stronger do I need to uncover it or leave it as is because of my location in the US?
