I did menu-1-8 & added quite a few sd chs. for now. Sons Of Anarchy is on @ 10 PM. Thanks for the menu workaround guys.

No signal again! I'm getting tired of see that same F ing screen mes. on this POS. I have had this recurring problem for several mos. now. All they tell me is CALL when dish goes out. I DID call for the last 30 mins. & the line is BUSY! Cable is looking good right now. I'm in So. FL on the east...

OK, 3 days ago I changed the USB cable- All 3 EHDs are being recognized now. It's the 1st time I replaced the USB cab.- The 722 has 1 USB port. I would not have guessed that a metal end on a cable that still fits tight could go bad. One question- If I leave an EHD plugged in @ nightime does the...

OK, I will.

I always unplug the EHD- Are you just switching the USB cable end while the power is on to the EHDs? Do the USB cable ends actually go bad??

No, but I have not ever unplugged the end from the 722 which is only 3 mos. old. I rebooted the 722 using the reset button- The 722 is plugged into a battery backup unit so I haven't tried de-powering the 722 from the battery. I'll try your suggestions and see what happens.

HI, I have 3 WD EHDs- (2) 500GB "My Books" & (1) 1TB "Elements"units. The My Books both worked fine for a while- I bought 1, then 6 mos. later the other 500. The problem I'm having is the 722 simply does NOT recognize ANY of them unless it wants to. The 1 TB EHD is only 2 mos. old. It worked...

Hi All, I don't watch Fox sport chs., but I am real unhappy with NO Nat'Geo & FX. Does anyone know where I can pick up these chs. w/out paying a fortune? Dish told me way back on Oct. 1 that all this would be resolved by the 3rd. Here we are on 10/27 and NO chs. I made the mistake of taking free...

As far as I'm concerned Nat'l Geo. is the BEST ch. Dish has & I DVR many shows. I also watch Sons Of An. on FX. I only have the top 250 pkg. for Nat-Geo and am thinking of dropping that tier. I'm disgusted with Fox for their F-ing GREED!! This is why our economy is all but finished- GREEDY...

I've had Cin. for 3 yrs. for 1 cent/yr. for the same promo. They sent me a letter about 6 mos. ago saying the promo ended, but it's still on and I have never been charged for Max. other than the penny. Does anyone know what Pkg. HD Theatre is in, what chs. are in it, and how much a month it...

I have 2 Western My Book (home ed.) 500 Gigs ea. No, you only pay once for the USB port from D. Just plug in the drive and it does the rest. The rec. will recognize it and you're good to go. One quirk: Both of my drives if left plugged in for over 1/2 hr. won't accept new data & I get an...

Hi, I called Dish- got a nice rep who gave me HBO/Shotime free for 3 mos. I went to the page in my acct. regarding free HD for life. Only 1 catch- I will lose HD Theatre if I sign up for "Free". That ch. is in some other HD pkg. so I'm leaving it alone for now. I did like the $99 option vs...

I just talked to a rep. I have Gold HD. She said the HBO/Sho. promo is through her and I was shown how to get HD for life online. They want a 2 yr. or a 1 time $99 payment for HD for life. I also read I will lose HD Theatre by taking HD for life. I don'r really watch that ch. anyway, so I will...

I don't have P:confused:latinum- just the $10 HD plan that covers what's in my subscription.

Hi, I have been with Dish for several yrs. I pay for Top 250 chs., DVR- 722, HD signal- $10/mo. and insurance. I saw an ad on TV for Free HD signal for life with 3 mos. of free HBO/Showtime. I am on a month to month and like Dish, but after talking with a rep he said I can only sign up for...
