    Can I access any apps using the joey

    I'm getting Pandora (Hopper) right now and I thought I could access it using the joey in my master bedroom but instead it keeps giving my a connection error. Can this be done?

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    , Whao I'm speechless or not. So you know, I have been a DirecTV costumer before and left because they were out of my price range. I like Dish I just don't like the run around I got. Dish Tech support was very nice but at the end I end up with another Hopper. Every tech that came here did very...

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    Well, #9 Dish Tech was here this morning and there is a good chance he might have fixed the problem. The RG6 cable that was in place was the wrong cable. I had a RG6 2.2GHZ and according to him it should be RG6 3GHZ. I'm going find out soon enough if this is going to work or not....rain is...

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    At this point downgrading might not be a bad thing. I used to have 2 VIPs 722. I wish a had them now.

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    Well I'm back wining again. Had the Dish tech here almost all day and... wait for it.. I may need another Hopper. This so ridiculous. My wife and I want out of this contract with Dish. Can this be possible with out penalty?

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    "IIRC, a "signal strength" of low 60's on 129 is actually about as good as it gets. All HD transponders are 8PSK, and they read lower than the QPSK transponders on other sats." Low 60's will not hold when overcast or rain here in South Florida. So you know when 129 goes out so does 119 and 110.

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    It is on a UPS. One of the installers told me I had a glitch coming from the outside. I think he replaced the switch. Now I'm not so sure.

    How many Hoppers before E* gets it right

    Not happy right now Dishnetwork. Five months ago I made a bad move should have kept my 722s. This is my story: Two months after installation Hopper # 1 went bad. DVR functions got all screwie. Could not record anything. Afetr talking to E* a second receiver was sent to me. Three months later...

    vip 612 ,is it usable?

    If I'm not mistaking the 722k can only record one HD and one SD at the same time. For what I've read on this forum the 612 have some issues. I'm hoping that the ones I get don't. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    vip 612 ,is it usable?

    I'm thinking about going back to E*. D* is been good to me but I can't afford them anymore. E* made me an offer that D* can't beat. I do have a couple of questions about the VIP 612 solo HD DVR. Can you record 2 HD channels at the same time and does it have an OTA tuner? And must important, Have...

    You are ALWAYS a Former Customer

    I do not think you will ever be able to get off the list, but as a former customer they will give you the best deal possible. I left Dish 2.5 years ago. When I called two days they offered me a hell of a deal. Three DVRs receivers two of them HDs plus 200 + channels including 50 HDs and the...

    You are ALWAYS a Former Customer

    I'm not sure this is related to this thread but here it is. I am a former Dish costumer. I've been gone for over 3 years. I called them today and they offer me a pretty good deal better than Directv however I didn't take it because I was asked for my ssn# and credit card# to see if I qualify for...

    How can we get ALL HD channels in South Florida with a single dish?

    You are wright!! I am not. Then again I do not care. All I know is.. I'm going to be getting Locals HD and to me that is more important than Monsters HD.

    How can we get ALL HD channels in South Florida with a single dish?

    I leave in South Florida and I'm going to get all the channels on one dish. Simple switch to D*. Problem solved.

    How many National HD channels does E* currently have?

    I feel for LORAX. I know exactly what he is going through. E* has 30 plus HD channels and that is great! I only watch 3 of them the rest I could give a C..... and for get about my locals on HD E* does not have them. I'm using a OTA for HD but my signal Sucks! So I too have to say Buh-bye :wave...

    Tampa HD locals

    How do you go about getting Miami locals with E*? I'm assuming you still live in PSL. I understand about getting a local address but do you have to have a local telephone line hook up to your equipment?

    Gary, Are you only looking to get 61.5 (Voom package)?

    Signing up to Dish(Help)

    I do not think so. It the 40 deg. rule. 61.5 its just to far east for us to be get it along with 119 and 110 on one dish. 129 would be ideal but it is not aimed at Florida. So, for now we are stock with dishes.

    Signing up to Dish(Help)

    I hope you are ready to have a second dish on your roof. Unless you only want HD. Maybe you know this but with a good OTA Hd antenna you can get as many as 44 + channels. A third of them are HD. That is how many I get. I live in Lake Worth.

    How can I make my voice heard?

    Here is what my local TV station has to say about HD and E*... It is dependent on Dish Network to set this up, they have not contacted us about doing so any time soon. We are up on Directv, over the air and Comcast. Dave Dave McKinley Director Of Engineering WPTV Television Florida's Top...

    61.5 benefits

    Actually that is not a bad guess. I pickup 44 total (HD & SD) however I'm using a directional antenna from Radio Shack. It sounds good right....well it all depends on the weather. I live just south of West Palm Beach and mean just and the reception gets pretty crappy when the wind blows or when...
