    622 blacking out

    My DVR 622 has started blacking out once in awhile. While watching, it goes black, sometimes with voice, sometimes without. A few times there is a picture and no sound. I reboot it and it works for awhile but then starts up again. I lease the system (started late July last year). Is...

    cancelling dish question

    I got Dish around 7/29/07. Is there a 1-yr commitment or can I cancel at anythime. I have a 622 and 625 but need to use an antenna in the Harrisburg, PA area to get the HDs. I am thinking of getting Direct because they offer HD is this area and Dish doesn't look like they plan to anytime soon...

    Three questions on D*TV in Harrisburg

    It's been awhile since I visited. I know DTV usually lists future expansion cities but I can't find that list. First question: Anyone have any idea when Harrisburg is going to get Locals in HD? Second question: I do have an antenna (from when I had Dish, now with Comcast). I want...

    811 and multiswitch error

    I have an 811 receiver and for several weeks, I kept getting the "we have detected a multiswitch error" message. DISH has been out 3 times. First time, tech switched ports and it cleared up the problem. That lasted about one week. Second time, tech (not the same as the first) ran the test...

    Confused about contract

    I have had Dish for a couple of years but moved in Sept and took advantage of the "free" location/dish mover offer. I than upgraded on of the receivers to an 811 in November. Yes I rent them all. I was told that I have to commit to one year on the HD package and if that wasn't in effect...

    Dish 811 and cable (Maybe HDTV signal)

    I am picking up the "basic" basic cable to get HS Internet. The cable will be split with HS Internet by itself and the other cable, I want to run through my DP34 using diplexers. I understand that the local HD signal is not encrypted yet and some folks who have TVs with ATSC tuners are...

    Free Premium Channel HD not viewable

    I see that there is a "free HBO/Starz" movie weekend. At least, I think it is free because they are all white on my guide and I didn't upgrade. But why is the HD movies on the same packages not being allowed to be viewed. I have the 811 receiver and might consider a movie package, if I saw...

    I keep losing one channel

    Got the antenna up and running, but everytime I go for OTA signal, the local ABC is not there and I have to add the Digital Signal Again. Signal strength is in the high 80s. The CBS station is not too far from the ABC and I don't need to even turn the rotor. The CBS station is on the Dish 811...

    Lips not in sync

    I just got the 811 receiver (2 weeks ago) and it came from Dish (and was a remanufactured model-under the rent program). This goes with my new Toshiba 46H84. When watching HD on TNT or ESPN using component inputs, I feel like I am watch a foreign movie with lips going one way and sound the...

    DISH and Local HDTV

    This is my first post here. I am sure that this has been discussed many, many times but in searching, I can't find a definitive answer. When will Dish bring on HDTV local channels. I am in Central PA and the CBS station here is NOT O&O by CBS. Also, I am having a real tough time...
