    KNTV channel 11 San Jose reception problems

    I'm also in the Bay Area and have been having bad signal problems only with KNTV (NBC local for Bay Area in San Jose) since around Aug 20. Both the SD and HD feeds from Dish appear to have the same problem... frequent video and sound problems that makes it unwatchable at times. Can they really...

    VIP622 problem using manual timers on PPV Sports DirectKick

    Sorry if this is a duplicate but I'm getting a lot of connection timeouts to this site and it looks like my previous post didn't go through. I have a VIP622 with L449 software rev. I have the DirectKick package for MLS soccer, which shows up on PPV sports channels between 455 and 465. I am...

    Is there a 18 month commitment for DVR Advantage for existing customers?

    Mike, I hope this helps you and anyone else who may be in the same situation. I just signed up for DVR Advantage about 1 month ago, and I made sure the CSR that signed me up repeated at least 3 times that I was not committing to any contract to get it. It ended up saving me $11/month and it...

    DVR Service Fee and Leased Receiver Fee

    Sorry if this is covered elsewhere, but every thread seems to be a unique case somewhat different from mine, and I can't get the same story twice from customer service. I currently have 2 receivers, a VIP-622 (leased) and an old 6000 (MPEG2 HD, which I own). I only get HD via Dish channels as...

    TV2 IR , who want it ?

    I would love to have this. I want to leave my VIP-622 in Dual Mode, and use my plasma (primary TV) internal tuner to pick up the TV2 output so I can have PIP using the plasma's PIP functions. I'm set up to do this, by splitting the TV2 output from the rear panel of the VIP-622, with one...
