    A Couple of Questions for a Newbie

    At the moment, I have a simple $10 antenna hooked up to my Samsung digital converter box and I am able to receive all of my local digital OTA channels except my NBC affiliate. However, with analog I can get a fairly good picture for my NBC affiliate, but hardly anything for the rest of the...

    ATSC Tuner

    Thanks roashru for the links. That brings me to my second question. Will HDTV feeds also get me Digital transmissions? Are they the same? I apologize for my ignorance in this area.

    ATSC Tuner

    Hello all, I hope this is the right place to post this. I am trying to find an affordable (i.e. $100 or lower) digital tuner (OTA) so I can get digital broadcasts on my analog TV. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Distant Locals

    Yes I realize that it is the FCC. My zip code is 95519. Part of it is that it is easier for my great grandma to just have the network channels with the satellite. However with Directv things might work differently. Yes it should read Distant Networks. :D

    Distant Locals

    They say that the signal strength of my local broadcast stations are "Grade A" when they are anything but that. The only thing I qualify for is PBS, but that is the station that comes in the best via antenna! I think I'll have to stick with Dish for now... Thank you for your response.

    Does Directv have distant locals for those markets that don't have any locals? :confused:

    Remote

    Hello I just got a new TV, and I was trying to program the remote for the 625 receiver. The TV is an AKAI, and I tried all of the codes and did a scan and nothing happened. Is there a generic code for something like this? I normally wouldn't care, but I am trying to make this as simple as...

    Enter Here To Win: 1.2 Meter Dish And Stand

    I don't have a tip, but I would like to use the dish to get the free Christian channels off of IA5. I would also have to buy a receiver from Sadoun if I won the dish.

    Phone Line Question

    Hi, I have one 311 receiver and another 625 dual receiver. Do both receivers have to be in a phone line, or can I just have one plugged into a phone line?

    Good Deal?

    Thanks everyone. I'll also be checking out some of the other options given to me in this thread. At this point, I only want what's on IA5. Eventually, I will want more. I just want something to start off with first.

    Local Stations Question

    I know someone who has DirecTV and is able to get local channels from 400 miles away. However, in order to do this they had to give an address from the area where the local channels are based. How legal is this, can you do the same with DISH Network? Just for the record, the reason they are...

    Dish Issues

    Sorry I didn't know about posting transponder number, etc. I'm fairly new to this. I get what you mean now, though. Well I tried other transponders, but once I put it on a certain transponder the box goes back to transponder 04 (w/119) and transponder 15 (w/110).

    Dish Issues

    The install was done by someone that DISH Network sent out. In fact it was the second time the guy came back. He had to come from out of the area and the first time he forgot the correct equipment. Here's a pic of how my dish looks. Maybe someone can help explain what to do so I won't have to...

    Dish Issues

    We recently had a really large storm pass through here, and my satellite got knocked way out of wack by the wind (I mean the dish is normally upright, and now it is leaning as if it will fall off the roof). We called Dish Network and they said the earliest they could come is Tuesday and that the...

    Advice On Setting Up a System...

    I want to try and setup a C-Band (with a Ku/C Feedhorn) system for my house to get mostly FTA stuff (Christian channels for the most part). I tried to do this about a year ago with the old satellite that we have at our house. However, once I bought all the supplies that I needed to update the...

    I might have to try that because I did what was said above, and today it didn't record one of the programs.

    How to?

    Hello all, I apologize if this has been asked before but how to I get my DVR 625 recorder to record two programs at once? Is it capable of doing this? Right now, when I try to the receiver automatically wants to record it to TV 1 where the other show is being recorded. The receiver is in dual mode.
