    new installation - 722 signal levels

    I just got my Vip 722 installed and I noticed that the signal levels aren't near what I used to have a couple of years ago with my 522. I live near Kansas City, MO. 129 seems very low. Is there room for improvement and should I call them to come back and realign the dish??? Perhaps there's...

    EXCLUSIVE: AT&T HomeZone First Look

    Can the Homezone box browse your computer on your home network and play music directly off of it or does the box have to transfer the music to its own internal HDD before it can play it?

    EXCLUSIVE: AT&T HomeZone First Look

    Not having an OTA antenna will blow it for me as well. I lost my sweet Comcast deal when I moved last month and I want to get some other service before the end of the year. Looks like it may be back to E* for me with the $199 fee to get the 622. :(

    Dish Network - Better TV for All

    I just switched to Comcast from Dish Network. My locals were HORRIBLY compressed on dish to the point that they were unwatchable on my 51". My analogs look much better than that over-compressed crap that dish puts out.

    So??? What's wrong with saving money? Comcast certainly has it in their power to tell him to f-off.

    Switching from DISH to Cable: how long until I can resubscribe and get a decent deal

    When I left for Comcast cable earlier this month, I was told by the Dish guy that I would be considered a new customer after being gone 3 months. I find that to be pretty short and potentially wrong. If you have SBC in your area, you can sign up through them as a new customer. I have 16...

    DISH NETWORK slashes prices

    Comcast is giving me an HD-DVR for free. So, what's the problem?

    DISH NETWORK slashes prices

    That's why I'm gone come Friday when Comcast comes to hook me up. All they had to do was get me a 942. Oh well. Now I can pay the same amount for service that doesn't cut out during thunderstorms, doesn't need me to ship its box back 3 times, lets me record HDTV...

    Another ongoing 522 issue

    About every morning, my tuner 2 is stuck trying to acquire the satellites and it sits on 0 of 5 until I go reset the box. It used to sit at the info screen every morning but since I've had my 3rd replacement box, it has been doing this.

    Why should I stay with Dish Network and not go with Comcast?

    It's obvious you don't know what you're talking about. DSL is $14.95/mo with a 1 year contract.

    Did I make a mistake with Dish?

    Mine goes out just about every thunderstorm. I'm in Missouri so we get some doozies. My signal levels are routinely over 120 when it's clear. If it's a problem for you then, yes you did make a mistake getting Dish. I'm in the same boat as you. I had Comcast for years and dumped them for a...

    942 deal for current subs in the wind???

    The major networks have been broadcasting HDTV for how many years now and we still can't get a HD-DVR from Dish without paying $700???

    942 deal for current subs in the wind???

    I can't believe they still want people to pay $700 for a damned receiver. I have Comcast coming on Wednesday to install my HD-DVR, all the HDTV channels including major locals, digital cable and HBO including HBO-HD at $29.99 for 16 months. Dish Network has until the end of the month to...

    Why should I stay with Dish Network and not go with Comcast?

    I would gladly stay with E* if I could send back my 522 and get a 942 for free. I'd even be willing to sign a 1 year contract. I sent an email to the ceo address with my offer so we'll see what their response is. After 16 months with Comcast, I'll probably go back to E* but I'm really...

    Why should I stay with Dish Network and not go with Comcast?

    I don't understand why dish thinks they can expect existing customers to pay $699 to purchase a 942 receiver! I also don't see how they expect new customers to pay a $250 non-refundable lease fee just to have the opportunity to use a 942 receiver. Comcast has a promotion in my area where I...

    Upcoming "mid July" 942 promotion for existing customers

    I called twice and there is no deal. They wanted me to pay $798 to purchase the 942 and get it installed. I'm beginning to wonder why I should stay with dish.

    Combine OTA signal(in) with 522 TV2 out on a single cable

    It says bi-directional so it should work.

    Combine OTA signal(in) with 522 TV2 out on a single cable

    use a combiner with the TV2 and antenna signal and then diplex that with the satellite signal.

    Combine OTA signal(in) with 522 TV2 out on a single cable

    Yes. Use a combiner to combine the antenna and TV2 output before you distribute it to the household. When you setup the 522, the TV2 output should be set to air and to an over the air channel that is not used in your area. I thought about doing this and dropping the dish locals to save some...
