My parents have a deactivated 311 receiver that they no longer use. I'm pretty positive it was deactivated before the newest security cards were sent out. Is it even worthwhile to try to sell it without the security card? Doesn't Dish charge $50 for a new card? Thanks!

I'm in the Minneapolis/St Paul area and current have 2 dishes -- one pointed at 110/119 and another pointed at 129. The need for 2 dishes occurred when I could not get a strong enough signal from 129 from one dish when upgrading to HD a few years ago. This year most of the cable connectors on...

How is the signal strength on the DVRs? I've found that the OTA tuner on my TV is much better than that in the 622...

Confirmed...SD. Bummer.

Scifi is still just showing the SD version, correct?

Today's show is the last one listed in HDNet's schedule though (on their website).

Bringing an old thread back. Is HDNet no longer showing Enterprise after tomorrow's (6/13) show? I can't find anything more in their schedule on the website and it is no longer listed in their series listing.

Got home from work tonight and I realized I've lost them as well. Reboot had no effect. I upgraded from a 942 (and eventually sold it) to a 622 last November. Hmm...guess I'm going to need to give them a call.

This actually reminds me of a problem I had with my old 942 early on. The same thing would happen, events would be scheduled to record and then would be skipped -- the history would show the start/stop times, but no "AV Recorded" or "AV Stopped". This problem was caused by leaving the 942 on...

I never could find it on Universal's website either, but it is in the Dish Network program guide. Also, I think it was pointed out in the "Satellite & Cable TV HD Programming" forum too.

I think 6 hd channels on one tp are the new encoders and I'm guessing they're pushing it up to 7 to see if people notice.

Say, does anyone know if there is an easy way to turn off the mapdown of local channels for TV2? That's something that's bothered me since I upgraded to the 622 about a month ago.

I think the reason for this is that Dish doesn't currently carry NESN HD.

Yes and yes.

Yes, this is correct. I'm can't recall if it is the same as the preseason discount rate or not...
