Do I need the DVR service that is $10 a month in order to pause/rewind live tv? I don't ever use the DVR to record anything on a schedule. I only use the DVR functionality to pause/rewind live tv when I'm watching sports. So, do I need the $10 month DVR service in order to do that?

I know this question has been asked hundreds of times, but some of the information contradicts itself so I want to be sure of the answer. I have an HR24 and H24 in my home. I want to be able to take the H24 with me when I travel. I have an 18" round dish that I've used in the past, but I...

Anyone got any ideas on how I can get a signal when I have tremendous line of sight issues? I just can't think of anything to get around this problem. Our tailgate spot is right up against what seems like 100 foot pines that are at least a hundred yards deep. To hit the appropriate birds...

I purchased a 301 with smart card from a guy on Ebay. I tried to activate everything last night, but couldn't get it done. The Dish technician told me the smart card I had belonged to a receiver that was leased and had not yet been returned. He said the account was inactive, but he could not...

With college football right around the corner, it's time to dust off my tailgating equipment. I have an extra Dish 500 that I used to connect to my 322. The problem is I returned my 322 at the end of last season because I no longer needed it in my house since we moved. Now, I'm trying to...

Forgive me if this is not the correct place to post this, but I have not found any answers anywhere else and Satelliteguys has been very helpful to me in the past. I'm hoping someone can offer a suggestion for my problem. I recently installed an underground pet fence in my yard. The problem...

I currently have an Antennas Direct 91XG that I need to have mounted on my roof or chimney. I can pick up all Atlanta channels except WXIA with this antenna set up on my deck, so I may also need a separate VHF antenna and combiner if simply putting it higher doesn't get it. I am located in...

I'm currently trying to figure out a way to get my cable modem from my attic into my basement. I can't seem to find a way to run a cable all the way down without major effort. Using my existing wiring I can get it down there if I can combine all these signals ok. Can I combine all of these...

I posted this in the general Dish forum earlier, but only got one sarcastic response. I'm hoping I have better luck here. I've noticed some audio problems with my 522. I'm able to hear a high pitched "electric squeal" type noise when watching some programs. It is really noticeable when...

Is the 522's RF tv 2 output analog or digital? I'd like to combine it with my OTA signal from my antenna and watch it on my ATSC digital tuner, but it doesn't see the signal. I'm assuming since it can't tune it in, that it's analog. Anyone know for sure?

I've noticed some audio problems with my 522. I'm able to hear a high pitched "electric squeal" type noise when watching some programs. It is really noticeable when watching sporting events such as football where there is a lot of crowd noise. I'm watching on an LCD tv that is being fed from...

I'm not familiar with the way the OTA signals work, so I'm not sure which type of antenna would be better for me. Most of my stations are about 40 miles away. The high gain antenna says it's for stations up to 45 miles away while the ultra-high gain antenna says it's for stations 15-65 miles...

Some of you may remember my post about having to cancel because the installer that came out told me it couldn't be done on my new house. Well, I'm glad to say he was wrong. A Dish technician came out Saturday and did the install with no problems at all. He mounted the dish, brought the wires...

I moved into a new house this weekend, and had Dish scheduled to come out and do the install yesterday. The installer came out and ultimately concluded that it could be done, but he wouldn't recommend it. The cable connections in my attic are on the opposite side of my house from the grounding...

How do I go about requesting a waiver for locals? My parents don't subscribe to locals because the locals Dish provides to them are not the ones they want. They live in a small town between Charleston and Columbia, South Carolina. They are ~53 miles from Charleston and ~71 miles from...

I gave a friend of mine a club dish referral number about a month ago. How long before I see this credit show up on my bill? Is there any recourse if it was not processed correctly?

I'm planning on putting in a security camera with my existing dish installation. I have put together a diagram of what I think I can do. ( http://users.adelphia.net/~wakebdr/wiring ) The camera will be modulated to channel 3 and split out in the wiring closet. It will be sent to the two...

I'm sure Dish can answer this question, but I trust this forum more for answers to my questions. I subscribe to the Multisport packages. Lately, I've found that I don't watch it too much because most of the MLB games are blacked out. I believe I am correct to say there is a $5 charge to...

Every day since Sunday, my 522 has overheated. It suddenly stops showing what I'm watching and displays a warning message that contains the current temperature of the unit. Once I power cycle the unit, it seems to be fine again. Has anyone had this problem and had to replace the unit? I ask...

I know the launch is a few months away, but does anyone know if ESPNU will be available on Dish?

If I am watching a show and suddenly decide I want to record it, is the 522 supposed to record the entire programe from the beginning? I thought I read that it is. I was just watching something and 5 minutes in decided I wanted to record it. It only recorded the next 55 minutes, even though I...

I'm in the market for a new home theater system and am looking for some recommendations or helpful advice. I have a few requirements for my new system and was wondering if anyone has a system that would satisfy them that they could tell me about. Requirements: 1. Wireless rear speakers 2...

I have a 522 and a 322 in my setup. I was wondering if I could combine the tv2 signals from both of the receivers and see them on one tv? I ask this because I would like to combine these outputs, a DVD player output, and a video camera output so they are all viewable on one tv...basically make...

I was looking at the channel chart on www.dishchannelchart.com and somehow landed lyngsat.com. There is a section with Free US TV. One of the channels it shows is free is CSS (Comcast Sports Southeast). I have been wanting this channel for quite some time now and this has peaked my interest...

I have a DirecTV dish and dual LNB (not sure of model) that was given to me by a friend who cancelled his contract. I am a current subscriber to Dish network. Is the DirecTV dish and LNB usable if I hook it up to one of my Dish receivers?
