    Enter to win: Solar Panel from Sadoun

    We started using the reusable (cloth) bags when we go shopping. It saves us from throwing away the plastic bags from the grocery store, and around here they even give you a 5 cent credit on your bill for each reusable bag you end up using. You can't go wrong with that.

    Contest: Enter to Win a Mini BUD from Satellite AV

    wow, all I have to do is reply to be entered. Like taking candy from a baby. Not that I do that, because taking candy from a baby would be mean. Now to the point. How can you not love camping. That is one of my favorite family past times. Off in the woods, freezing my butt off, constantly...

    Will dish carry this channel??? (NFL Red Zone)

    There was rumors a while back about NFL Network and ESPN Classic merging into one channel so that the NFL could use ESPN's muscle to push it's way onto all cable networks. Since that hasn't happened yet I wonder if ESPN Classic will switch over to "Redzone TV" on Sundays, then back to its...

    VIP 722 vs. TiVo Series 2 DVR

    When you use the suggestion above you can have it search for specific words either in the title of the show, or the content of the description.

    The 2009 MLB All-Star Game

    I watched the game, or the pre-game I should say, up until the point that Obama was introduced. That is the time I changed the channel and I won't be looking back.

    Completely wrong program (channel) recorded

    Thanks for the replies. At least I know it isn't just me. I'll just consider it a glitch unless it starts to happen on a regular basis.

    Completely wrong program (channel) recorded

    The (usually trusty) 622 was setup to record an OTA channel today, 58-1 if it matters, from 3-4pm. My wife goes to watch the program and it was recording 4-1, although the info for the recorded program said 58-1, had the title of the recording was that of the program that was on 58-1 and had the...

    List of HD Channels NOT Available on Dish Network: Version 2 Updated

    You can add Fox Sports Wisconsin to the list of RSNs that are not 24/7 HD. They show a bunch of the Milwaukee Brewers/Bucks games in HD, but Dish has "game only" coverage of them, so as soon as the post game show is over, so is the alternate channel.

    Need some advice...

    I don't have any experience with using an Inno on a motorcycle, but I do personally own one. I like thie Inno because you can put your own MP3 files on it, in addition to recording live XM content directly to the built in storage. There is a newer unit out now, which I think is also made by...

    Combine TV2 with CATV

    I use two different products to do exactly what you are describing. First, a product like the Channel Plus NF-471 here: this which cleans the line of high cable channels that no one watches. In most cases there are garbage channels in the higher range so you don't want them on the line. In the...

    Live Retailer Chat Recap - October 16, 2008

    I couldn't find anything that matched it in the google image archive so I decided to play with that image by itself. I cropped everything else out from around Phil's shoulder and this is what I came up with. Seems to be a logo that just says FOX HD with a bar above and below the HD. Take a look...

    VIP 622 ..2nd tuner turns on by itself!!

    I'd call her anytime, Jennifer Love Hewitt is a hottie!:love As far as the TV2 tuner being on. I have mine set that way on purpose, maybe someone in your household did the same. I have TV2 set to auto-tune (which includes the power on) to a disney station about 6am, so if the kids get up early...

    Big Ten Network

    You'd get all of the Fox Sports and Comcast Sports networks (and others) from around the country, only subject to blackouts when MLB and other national games are on. In addition you'd get the NBA tv channel.
