    Media General Stations Removed from DISH, Agreement Reached

    Strange..... I tried Dish Anywhere and it seems that I am now getting guide data on the OTA channel. Am away from home so has something happened in the last two days to allow Dish Anywhere to display guide data on OTA even though main channel shows WGN?

    Questions about The Hopper?

    I have two SD - Non HD TVs (in addition to several HD TVs) which are now connected to 722K from the SD coax out using a conventional splitter. In a H/J set up how would these TVs be connected?

    Just a quick clarification....

    Can you please tell us where this has come up and the reasoning behind not allowing VIPs on a Joey system? That is what I think I am going to need.

    External Hard Drive Error

    Not the issue. I already took care of the sleep problem a long time ago when I first bought the disk drive. It worked fine for a year. This problem is different in that it actually disconnects me.

    DTVPAL Remote Address Problem
