    Active receiver w/out core programming?

    I am considering cutting the cord, well not really, actually just maintain a very small minimalist cord. Besides the Welcome Pack, what is the most minimal option to keep my receiver active so I can still use the DVR capabilities for my OTA? Does Dish offer a "keep service active w/out core...

    Bringing OTA and Sat in the house on single coax.

    Okay, I need some help from the experts. I did some searching but have not had much luck finding the answer I need. I want to know if it's possible to combine an outside OTA antenna and the dish sat feed currently coming into the house on that single coax? I have the VIP722K and recently...

    Looking to save some $$ and downgrade from AT120 pack. Best I can tell these packs are my options. Interestingly enough, I did a chat today with a dish rep. and I was told the America pack is no longer available and not an option for me. However, it is a listed option I could select on my online...

    722 Receiver Signal Loss on TV 2 only

    Hi Folks, I could use some advice or input on a problem I am having with my VIP722 receiver. For the past several weeks I am receiving signal loss (screen message 12-12-11) on TV2 only. There is NO problem with TV1. The problem is very intermittent, but it seemed to me that it was most frequent...

    TV2 Flickers after 722 intall

    I am hoping someone here can offer advice regarding an odd problem that surfaced during a 722 receiver upgrade. We moved, Dish made me a great offer to upgrade from the 522, to the HD 722 receiver. The installers arrived and right from the start, even during the initial setup phase, TV2 was...

    Epix - Yes or No?

    I received an offer to get Epix channels 380 - 382 for half price, ($3.50/mo) Is Epix worth it or is it just a whole bunch of overran sub par movies?

    HD Upgrade Inquiry

    Bear with me, this will probably ramble a bit. I have spent time on DISH.com and here of course and just hoping to get some clarification on some things before I call DISH this afternoon. Currently I have a 522 (yes I know, ancient stuff) Thinking of pulling the trigger to upgrade to HD...

    DVR Recordings - Resume & Time Left

    So, lately (2 to 3 weeks or so) we are having sporadic issues with our DVR recordings. Some of them will not resume playing where left off, it will start back at the beginning of the show. I have also noticed on other recordings it will give an erroneous time left, It may say there is 10 minutes...

    Grayed Out Menu Selections

    I have a 522 dvr receiver. Several days ago I noticed that the "movies and more" button is grayed out on the recordings screen. Not a big deal, I hardly ever selected it anyway but none the less I thought it was odd. The other grayed out button that is really annoying to me is the "timer"...

    Moved recently, no phone line near our 522. Bought the phonex easy jack 2, mainly because my wife and I really missed not having caller ID displaying on the screen when someone calls. The easy jack states it is "caller ID compatible" however it will not display caller ID info on our screen...

    DN Tips Screen Saver

    Hello, Upgraded my folks to a 625 DVR this week. I went over yesterday to give them a quick DVR lesson and noticed that when you power off the receiver the TV goes to snow and does not go to the Dish Network "screen saver" prompting you to push "select" to watch TV. This strikes me as odd...
