Thanks for your answers---so I guess what they told me is correct and since I don't have a land line--I will not be able to get the DVR up and running with my system-- So HD receiver it is/// Thanks, Tom

Just ordered direct tv again and switched from DISH--was advised by two people there that you have to have a land line hooked up to the DVR in order to use it. So I ordered the the HD receiver instead due this requirement. I use a Cell phone for my home phone so I do not have a land line. Can...

I talked to CSR tonight and was advised that DISH will have a one DISH solution for more than three satelites in the future. I curently have a Superdish 121 to get the Milwaukee locals --when I called last night I was told that I needed two dishes to pick up the 129 slot- in order to get the new...

I live out in Brookfield, WI- have an 811 & OTA (all networks except for FOX in digital) and do not have the lines you are talking about (digital 16x9--1080I) either the white ones or dark ones.

Milwaukee Fox 6 33.1

Is this 1 DISH solution possible for more HD & SD channels???? With the Superdish is it possible to view 4 satellites if they are closer together. This would avoid the two DISH solution. See thread below (on dsb talk) regarding the following request by DISH. (*EchoStar has applied for...

Thanks Scott for the info. I live in the Milwaukee area too. I tried your fix --but I pushed the save key right after I keyed in 46 and got 46-01 46-02 46-03. 46-02 is the correct ch for regular CBS programming. I am able to keep the channel even when I change channels. Thanks again for the...

Scott, was there any mention about the changeover kit for the 105 superdish--to change it over to the 121. A local retailer here in the Milwaukee area is going to install a 105 Superdish for me this week and then when the kit is available change it to 121. He says that getting the DISH up now...

Just checked the Current Software to see if the 811 has the new Software update listed yet( It doesn't). I noticed that the 921 is listed on this page now with todays date 12/15/03. Must be getting close to being available...

I would like more HD content. I feel that there should be more channels included in the first pack. I don't thing DISH would include HDPPV ($5.99) each in this package. I think your 12 pack should be the $9.99 package and Tier up from there.

Here is the link for the HDTV System for $999. http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/products/system/index.shtml

Same thing happened here in Milwaukee Channel 58--see the below e-mail I sent to DISH--Still waiting for answer ********************* RE: 811 receiver Off air Digital Channel Milwaukee ch 58 Dig 46 When I add this channel I get 82% signal and lists as ch 1 and the I name it 58CBS...

No he just said that the software is in Beta testing and will be released when fully tested as an update

Talked to DISH tech about this--no improvements on this software--just maintainance. Software in Beta now--48 hour guide, Channel 100---DISH home, and format button (aspect mode)

I would call again and tell the CSR to check their computer. The only reason I was able to order through DISH was because I ordered from them originally. If you ordered through retailer you need to call them. Good luck.
