    Puerto Rico receiver upgrade nightmare

    Have been trying to call Dishstore during the weekend... All I get is a fast busy signal from the cellphone and the landline. Maybe that 800 is not allowing calls from the island... :( I'm firing a respectful letter to ceo and see what happens... Thanks everyone for your comments.

    Thanks for all who have responded... Chena - Thanks for the suggestion. Will check with Claude later in the week, the store seems to have a few dead links today. Technoguy - I'm be more than willing to pay the $300 for the receiver but Dish will not ship it over here... Will check with...

    Puerto Rico receiver upgrade nightmare

    Greetings. I've been a Dish customer sine they began doing business in the island 6 or 7 years ago... I started with a 301, then upgraded to a 510. Later I bought a 508 and did all the install and wiring, both boxes tied to one tv (I have only 1 tv) no big deal. Earlier in the week, the 508...

    Dish Network® Launches The History Channel En EspaÑol™

    You really, really, really, really want to watch WAPA's "La Comay" and "Dreuxilla Divine?" :p Although I have to admit Mrs. Dreuxilla is more charming, though... And I fall under her spell every now and then... ;)

    How does dvr technology affect the revenue from commercial advertising?

    I think the DVRs will make advertising agencies more creative. I tend to skip ads in DVR mode and stand up and do something if I have to watch a show live... But two ad campaigns always make me stop and watch; the GEICO cavemen and the Capitol One ads... Just want to see what new idea those...

    DVR 510 quits in middle of some recordings

    Hello, I had this exact problem about a year and a half ago, after one of the upgrades sent by Dish. Have you tried resetting your receiver? Press the POWER button on the receiver and keep it pressed for 10 seconds or so. The unit will shut off, reboot and reacquire the satellite data...

    BBC World Petition to E*

    The shortwave BBC World Service has been my main news source since I was in high school (many, many, many moons ago). I'd even upgrade my service if Dish offers the option to view their TV signal.
