Thanks to all for the input. My parents aren't feeble or technology challenged. They actually asked me to do some research and see if I could get them the best deal that I could. They are wanting to move to a DVR instead of the VCR so that they don't have to mess with tapes and A/B...

I'm trying to get a DVR for my parents and hope that I can get some help/opinions here. They have been with Dish for 4 years now. Always on time with their payments. Currently have 4 receivers and the America's Top 60 programming package (downgraded from higher programming packages within...

This post is useless without pics. :D Seriously, are there any pictures of the new dish anywhere?

I, too, got "burned" on this deal. Even though I knew it was in the too good to be true bucket, I went ahead and pulled the trigger. I just yesterday (after two weeks) officially found out that I wouldn't be getting my equipment. It's unfortunate that Sirius was so naive to think that they...

I'm needing to upgrade my current antenna to get all the HD OTA stations available in my area. I'm somewhere around 35 miles away from the transmitter locations according to antennaweb.org. They are recommending a "red" antenna for my location. I'm not wanting to put up an outside antenna...

Just wondering... and hoping. :-)

Thanks for the info. It's helpful to me as I'm currently investigating that route I want to go with HD. What HDTV receiver are you using? I'm assuming it's the one supplied to you by D*? If so, a couple of questions: Did you get "a deal" on it? If you decide to not use it as a D*...
