    Switch from direct to dish?

    If I was to switch from Directv to Dish is there a chance they would buy out the remaining 8 months of contract?

    No cbs hd.

    Over the past couple weeks I've noticed that CBS is not in hd. The other locals are in hd. Anyone know why?

    Where are the locals in HD?! (and the guide sucks)

    Some complaining here. It is ridiculous that HD locals are still not available in my market of nearly 500,000 people. I don't watch the major networks at all because they're not in HD. Dish has had HD locals here for a long long time. Also, Directv's guide is horrible. It's difficult to look at...

    RF remote

    I switched to Directv last week. I have the RC65X remote (no RF) which sucks. My question is what remote was I supposed to get? Is the RF remote a $ upgrade or could I have gotten it at the install?

    Directv HR34 audio options

    Hello. I have an older Yamaha receiver that does not have an digital sat/dtv coax audio input. It only has a dvd/ld digital coax audio input. It does have an optical input for sat/dtv. The HR34 only has hdmi and digital coax audio output (no optical). Should I get an Coaxial (RCA) to Optical...

    New Directv customer questions.

    Hello friends. I just had an HR34 upstairs and HD receiver downstairs installed. I'm connected to the internet and the whole home DVR is functional. But I was wondering about the connection. I have a little black deca DCA2SR0-01 adapter connected to my router and the receiver. What's the purpose...

    May have to switch back to Dish immediately. Directv sucks.

    Directv installer didn't arrive until 8:30 PM (4-8 window) He left at 11:15 PM. Didn't have any flashlights. Had to use my daughters book clip light, my flashlight, and my headlamp. Used my ladder. Nothing is up and running. Wires all over house. Is this why I switched from Dish? Possible huge...

    New Directv customer!

    Howdy Folks. Dish wasn't will to go that tiny extra distance to keep me as a customer so I switched to Directv! I've got the HMC HD DVR and an additional HD receiver coming and the choice package. I'm stoked to get my regional sports network so I can watch Kevin Love school Lebron James this winter.

    NO HD Locals!

    One of the things keeping me from switching to Directv is no HD locals in the Duluth, MN market. What's up?

    Sling vs. Nomad and switching to Directv.

    Hello knowledgable satellite folks. I'm curious about the differences between Sling (Dish) and Nomad (Directv). It appears the glaring difference to me is Sling plays live tv and Nomad plays selected recordings. Is this true? I believe this makes Sling far superior. Is there anything that makes...

    Dish packages

    Hello folks. Question for you. Dish america silver is 49.99/mo and has 75+ channels. Americas top120+ is also 49.99/mo but has 120+ channels. Why are they the same price but a huge difference in the number of channels? Thanks!

    Where's Palladia?

    Palladia appears to be gone from my lineup. Did Dish drop it? Even though it's a weird name, it plays music and concerts which is better than reality MTV.

    Channel Numbers

    What's the difference in channels in the 200 range versus channels in the 9000 range? I have both listed in my guide. I suspect it is different satellites, and if so are there differences in quality? Thanks!

    Adding a hard drive to 612

    I would like to add a Seagate FreeAgent hard drive to my VIP 612. Could anyone give me some quick instructions on what the best and easiest way to do this is? Do I just plug it in or do I have to load software onto It? Thanks!!!

    Adding a receiver

    If I add a purchased receiver for my downstairs living room, for example a 211K, will that add to my monthly bill or will it work with my current programming package? Thanks again!
