    KAB, My 722K does light up the "KDTV" logo. It is old(like 2/3 years) may be why?

    722 Volume problem ?

    Thanks to who ever started this thread! I turned my "Sound Leveling" off for my 722. Works much better. I guess my 622 doesn't have the sound leveling? It least I couldn't find it!

    Why the difference with a 722k & 622 program guide?

    I have two Tv's hooked up to each 722k & 622. I get 3 thirty minute listings(per page) with the 622 and 6 on the 722k. Is there a way to get both to list 6 per page???:confused:

    Creating Timers?

    Thanks Tampa8, I am sorry to hear that. I guess the wife and are not the "Usually" kind of people. I have tried to use the "new episodes" a few times but it does the reruns too. So it is useless to me also. Just more trouble deleting them.

    Creating Timers?

    I have a problem with my VIP722k DVR. On the "Create Timer" page the default setting, as to how often, is all over the map. First one then the other. "ALL-NEW-ONCE-WEEKLY-DAILY-MON-FRI" .

    How often is Dish Network using my phone line in each 24hrs>

    Well TonyT, I haven't seen but one connection since the change. The wife hasn't ask me "WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE PHONE" in this period also. I would assume it is fixed. Thanks again!!!

    How often is Dish Network using my phone line in each 24hrs>

    TonyT, As you ask, I have "Prefix 256--Touch tone highlighted --At&t service". The 256 prefix was added this year in my area. In other words I have to dial a 10 digit phone number for local calls, even. Some calls in the 256 area are long distance call and I have to add 1 before dialing. I hope...

    My wife uses the phone line much more than I do and she notices it much more than I do. The phones we have in our home don't allow you to punch in the 10 digit number you are calling while listing for a dial tone. With Dish using the line multiple times during day it messes up some calls.
