    Another VOIP question: Ooma and 622

    I think I'm going to try out the Ooma setup and dump my landline. I've done some searching around here, and it seems there is some confusion on whether the 622 will dial out over VOIP with Ooma. Anyone with any insight? I don't want to pay the extra $5 fee, and I have a phone jack next to the...

    Long time Dish customer, but I'm confused!

    I used to have a pretty good handle on everything Dish, but it seems in the last couple years that things have changed so much that I no longer have a clue. I've lurked here for years, but don't post much. I currently have a 622 in the front room and a 508 in the daughter's room (which might...

    622 Didn't record "Heroes" or "24" finale: Argggh!!!

    What is with this piece of @#$% ! I suppose a new software "update" has turned this thing into a devious monster! They were both scheduled to record, one on OTA, the other on satellite, and since I can't stay up that late I don't even know it until I get home tonight full of anticipation to...

    BEV 5900 or Dish 510?

    I just picked up what I thought was a Dish 510 DVR (because that's what it says on the front panel!) but when I turned it on, it says it's an ExpressVu 5900 which doesn't seem to like the 119 or 110 satellites! From what I've found on a search, this cannot be activated with Dish, correct? It...

    Another 622 Upgrade question: What'll It Cost?

    I've been lurking here a lot, and I've been considering upgrading from a 942 to a 622. Even more now that I lost my CBS HD east coast feed! With the 622 I believe I could get my HD locals in Seattle, plus I get them from antenna, so I could theoretically record two HD local signals at once? I'm...

    Difference between old 8VSB and new one?

    I took advantage of Dish's offer for a free 8VSB, although I have had one since they came out almost 3 years ago. I saw a discussion here awhile back about the chip they use in the 8VSB but I was wondering if it has been changed or improved since they first came out? I took the new one apart...

    Recording from my 6000; S-VHS or D-VHS or?

    I have to record some things from my 6000 occasionally, mostly because I get up REALLY early and I want to see West Wing or CSI or whatever the next day. I've been using my old Toshiba HiFi VCR for this, and it doesn't look too bad, but it'd be nice to have better picture quality. Of course...
