    WTVC (ABC) Chattanooga

    Anybody know the reason that Dish hasn't turned on the HD feed of this channel? It is currently only broadcast by Dish in SD. It is the only "big" network for Chattanooga that is still in SD. DirecTV has it in HD.

    Dish announces new HD markets

    Chattanooga Locals Well, this does me no good. I am not interesting in a Dish farm, as apparently, I would have to have a second Dish pointing to 61.5. Makes me mad -- first, we had to get a SuperDish to pick up our locals on 105. Then, when we signed up for HD, we had to get a Dish 1000 to...

    Dish & FTA

    Thanks Iceberg. I don't think I need to spend the money to get a bunch of previews and NASA.

    Dish & FTA

    Ok.. I have a question, but let me say first that it is NOT about hacking. I would like to know if I could pick up a FTA receiver, unplug one of my current receivers, plug the FTA receiver up and receive free-to-air channels using my SuperDish (I didn't know if I can only receive Dish...

    SuperDish 105 & DP34

    My signal on 105 is usually in the 74 to 85 range. The signals on 110 and 119 are good (consistently 95 and above). I am at work, but I can check the port order later today. This is very frustrating. I usually lose 119 during the daytime hours, but now I have begun losing it some at night...

    SuperDish 105 & DP34

    Hi Guys, I continue to have problems with my 510 and 811 and my SuperDish. The 510 frequently loses 119 (even after I had it replaced). The 811 lost the capability to receive OTA local channels and was replaced. The new 811 receives the OTA channels fine, but is now losing 105 from time to...

    Dish Troubles - Please Help

    Well, that's what I thought, too. However, the 510 was once replaced for the same problem (at the time Dish just sent me a new receiver but indicated that it did not sound like a receiver problem), which has now come back. I don't think it is the receiver, as I receive signals from the other...

    Dish Troubles - Please Help

    Hello, I have a Dish 510 DVR and an 811 receiver. I have a SuperDish 105 to get Chattanooga, TN locals. These are connected with a DP34 switch. I have been noticing some problems lately: I am losing 119 during the day only on the 510. I have checked all of the connections, and they...

    Why Should I Upgrade?

    I have Direcway satellite service and Dish Network AT120 with HD Pack. I have a 105 SuperDish with an 811 and a 510. If I upgrade to lease one of the new HD receivers, I would have to have a Dish 1000 to get 129. Then, I would lose my locals on 105. I do not want a 3rd dish. Dish really...

    Dish 811 and Home Theater Set-up

    Thanks for all your help. The cold boot did not work. I called Dish and they are sending another. After I had already done this, I noticed Tony P's post. I tried his method, and it did seem to work. I am going to go ahead and let the new receiver come, though. Just in case it starts...

    Dish 811 and Home Theater Set-up

    Yep, tried that. Still there is a delay when hooked directly to the tv.

    Dish 811 and Home Theater Set-up

    Hi Guys, I have an 811 that I am running though my GE GTD120 Home Theater. There is a noticeable delay from the lips moving on the tv to when the audio comes through the receiver. It is about 1 second. I have tried every way to resolve this, and I cannot. Is anyone else having this...

    SuperDish and Voom

    Hi Guys, I am hoping someone can explain this to me in plain English. I have a SuperDish with two receivers (an 811 and a 510). I have a DP34 Switch (not sure what that does) and an additional LNB (Dish Pro part # 151019) to receive my Chattanooga, TN locals. I am subscribed to...
