Not blacked out in Dallas.

The SD picture I get from my 622 is superior to what I was getting off both my series 1 or series 2 Tivo.

Haven't seen anything like that on mine at all.

Thanks I have it figured out now. This is so much better than my Tivos. The picture quality is better as well. Of course being able to record HD doesn't hurt either.

Sorry, I didn't tell you what equipment I had. I have the 622. I can record two HD off sat, but then how do I set it up to do the third OTA recording?

Ok, so I've been thinking about this. I know I can record two HD channels at once, but how do I get three? I get good reception on my OTA Hd channels by the way.

Yes, that's what I meant I guess. When mine goes into stand-by mode, there are no lights on at all.

I can't speak to the rebooting problem because I have not had that. But, you do know it will shut ifself off after so many hours of inactivity right?

It sounds like Matt is coming through again. :D :up

A follow up to some earlier posts I made. The 622 arrived on Friday 3/3 just like Matt said it would. On Tuesday, the 7th, the installer showed up at about 9:30, just like Matt said. Put in the Dish 1000 and activated the 622 and all is great. For me, the 622 locks in ota better than the...

I have a series 1 and a series 2 Tivo. I have used the 622 for only two days, but so far, I am very impressed. The series 3 Tivo they are talking about does not interest me in the least since it won't do satellite. The picture I am getting from the 622 is very very nice.

Yes it did. On 2/27 I wrote this in another thread: "My story in a nutshell. Ordered 622 and HD upgrade on 2/6. I was given an install date of 2/28. Called last Friday to confirm and was told install was still set and the installer would bring 622 with him. Called this morning to double...

Actually, going through Tech Support doesn't always work either. I ordered on 2/6 through tech support and was given an install date of 2/28. Long story short, even with follow up phone calls to make sure everything was a go, I never received the 622. Finally, I went through ceo@echostar.com...

Just to let you know, I just received an email from Matt and he is on the case. I now have faith things will be resolved and I'll have that 622 soon. Nice to know there is someone you can contact when everyone seems clueless.

I had emailed Matt once before and he responded quickly. After my exciting chat with the clueless csr yesterday, I emailed Matt again asking for help. I haven't heard from him yet, but I bet he's a busy guy. ;)
