Vurbano, Well that's the best natural light you can get, and you don't have to worry about the bulb burning out. If yours does were all in trouble!

I've used back lighting for years on both my sets, using a 20 inch and 15 inch flourscent with a 5000 k (sunshine bulb from GE, full spectrum light), got it all at Walmart for less than 20 dollars, (bulb you must buy separately but they have it there. I like the halo around the TV, but the best...

811 oops 381 I'm just glad to know that I'll be able to use my 2 811's for the foreseeable future. I only use OTA's to watch local HD, and really don't want the new HD Lite stuff for the price they are charging. But I'm lucky that I'm only 13 miles away from most the towers that the...

When I got a 46' Hitachi, I still had my 301 connected to it, with one 811 connected to a Samsung HDTV, and the picture was much worse with the 301 then when I connected another 811 to the 46'. Lots of pixelization. Some channels are pretty darn good in SD, some just so, so, some...

If I ever have to spend big bucks for one more piece of equipment, I own 2 811's, plus an OTA antenna, plus a quad LNB, I'd switch to cable (Comcast) here in the DFW area. I'll admit I'm pleased finally with the 811's with the last software update, I don't even think I'll accept the 285...

I would suggest you wait until 284 downloads on your box and then see if things get better, I have 284 on one unit and still have 281 on the other unit, and I can say 284 "seem" to have really stabilized the unit, I really can't say I've had any problems since it was installed. Did just check...

Glad to see your having good luck, I went back to Partial guide with Video with the new 282 update, after letting the 811 sit on an OTA channel for a couple of hours, the second time I did this got the old BSOD, so I gone back to Full guide, no problems, It's nice when this 811 works like it's...

Acquiruing Signal when changing OTA channels on OTA I realize after I posted my reply that this was happening when changing channels, not using the guide. That's something I have not heard of before, may have something to do with the channel info, on the release of the last software update...

Aquiruing Signal when changing OTA channels on OTA Make sure your guide display in on "Full guide no video", not the "Partial guide with video", since I've done that I rarely if ever have a problem with that anymore. Maybe it's just my 811, but it's made a difference for me. Just go to the...

By the way I'm located in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, don't know it this was a local issue or national issue.

Clicking noise Had a similar problem, clicking noise, momentary blank screen (not the BSOD) and pixelization like I was losing the signal, (but wasn't), checked other channels and they were all good. Only happened to me in the first quarter, so I think it was from ABC.

Problem when exiting Dish Home I have better luck with the Guide Display set to "Full guide without video", than with "Partial guide with Video", Go to Main Menu, then Set-up,then Guide Display, to change. It makes my 811's much more stable, won't totally fix the problems, but may not...

I've had the same problem everyone has when watching OTA channels for a period of time 20 min's and up, if you hit the guide button without going to a non OTA channel you get the, satellite acquiring, followed by the guide update, and even a sometimes lock up. I read somewhere on a recent...

Clip on I have a Terk clip on, but I'm just 13 miles away from the towers here in the DFW area, and mine works fine, I get very good signals on all my locals. I did have a outside antenna mounted in my attic, but the plywood used for my sub-roofing , is called cool-ply has that aluminum...

Tivo I have one of my 811's connected with Tivo, Just connect your S-video from your 811 to your S-video on your TV. If you already have Component cable's, or DVI connected to your TV leave those connected. When you want to use Tivo you will just have to switch your input from your TV to...

I was wondering if anyone's experimented with installing a cooling fan on the top of the 811? It's always been my impression that heat can cause electronics to behave very erratic and the 811 can sure do that at times. Although the top doesn't get excessively hot, it still gets pretty darn...

jerky picture I think this has to be more than 3 channels per transponder, because it does it to me and I only have OTA HD, like everyone else changing the channel seems to cure it for the time being.undefined

Dish TV If your looking at Sears, also look at the Hitachi 46 in. I know Toshiba's are good, I bought the Hitachi and it's a really fine TV. I've been nothing but pleased with this TV, bright screen, very good picture, excellent color, SD pictures, good except local channels,HD picture...

KXAS buzz Just happen to watch Hawaii, but never noticed or experence any buzz.

DVI Cable Wells there's dual link DVI-I and Single link DVI-D, actually you can probably use both but they recommend the DVI-D. DVI-I is used for computers where infomation has to be transmitted back and forth thru the cable. DVI-D is one way transmission. The difference a person would...

Saw this post and so intrigued, I started to play around with some lights I had around the house, but wasn't good enough. Went to Lowe's, Walmart, found a 24 inch light stick and a 20w 5000k bulb at Walmart. I have a built in entertainment center in my wall ,nothing fancy but had it built with...

DVI Cable Both mine did not. Don't go and buy an expensive monster cable unless you have a very long run. I tried a monster cable, a phillips cable (walmart), ended up with a Seren (think that's how it's spelled) off of E-bay for $12.00 plus $ 7.00 postage and handling. Looks just has good has...

280 software I saw part of Dish's tech show, and I seem to remember there was going to be an update for the digital sound problems , maybe this was for that. I never have any of the problems of the dolby sound drop off so I can test it on my unit.

Just finished installing some grounding blocks , and I got the Zenith compression tool at Lowes , works really well, seems like it would last a long time. I went a head and got the Zenith connectors ( box of 12 for I believe $16.97, which is still over priced) I believe I saw a box of 12 of...

Thanks Rob, Finished grounding the rest of the cables this morning. Scott
