    Dish Network Tuner Limitations

    Hey everyone, I'm currently leasing two VIP 622's connected to four tvs in my house. This works out really well, as two of my tvs are HD and the other two are not, so I'm not bothered by the limitation of only the main tv being in HD. But, my problem comes in when I look ahead to the near...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    FINALLY! A tech finally came over today, and although I was at work I left specific instructions to whoever would be home while the tech was over to make sure everything was set up properly. I had originally thought that I would be left with two dishes because of my international...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I'm located in CT, and from what I've seen on DishPointer, going to the eastern arc would be a "better" position than what I currently have. So... I guess I'll see what happens tomorrow.

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I hate you.:p Well... I hate that not ALL of us can have such pain-free experiences with Dish Network. I was supposed to have an installer come out here from 8am-12pm today, and he didn't come! I spoke with a CSR via the online chat, and they called the office that the installer was supposed...

    I keep hearing many good things about FiOS apart from the channel selection. But it isn't available in my area unfortunately.

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I'm currently waiting for my tech to come here... I didn't get a call from him specifically, but I recieved a call from Dish to confirm the appointment. Of course when they say 8am-12pm they ALWAYS get here towards the later end of the spectrum. :rolleyes: I just hope I don't run into any...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    This is a question for everyone who's waiting for their dish upgrade to view the new HD channels: The only way for them to schedule an order (lame) is to remove some of your HD channels to then set up a work order to upgrade. I've heard from a forum member that they were able to call dish and...

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    Ohhhh Okay. I was unaware that the super dish was just a Dish 500+. Thanks for clearing that up! And a cleaner setup wire wise is ALWAYS a good thing!

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    So wait... should I call back and see if they can fix it for me as well? My install is on Sunday... that's quite a bit of time to be without the majority of my HD Channels. Fixing it won't require the cancellation of the work order, right?

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I just realized that I've lost some channels as well. ... I suppose it's not a HUGE deal, as long as I'm getting switched over to EA. (You can't win them all). But it's a rather bizarre and backwards way to have your system set up. Oh well...

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    Thank's a lot Iceberg, I'll make a note of that so I can confirm that the technician is doing the right thing. :P Just a quick question though, you had originally said to use my 61.5 dish (500) as my 118.7 dish, and remove the Super Dish all together. You've changed your mind on that?

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    Hey Scott, I was having this issue, and it took me two hour-long phone calls to Dish Network. One was last night without me knowing all of the exact specifics on where my programming was located HD Locals, International Channels, etc. Then after using Satellite Guys as my source, I called back...

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    Hey Guys, I just wanted to give you all a final update on my situation: I decided to call dish network one last time before going ahead and buying and installing the dish myself, to see if they would possibly install it for me. After talking to a couple different people and explaining the...

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    First off I'd like to thank everyone for their quick responses! From the sound of it, it would seem like buying a 1000.4 dish and installing it myself would be the quickest and easiest solution then. Considering the response Dish had for me, I don't think they want to give me a 1000.4 dish...

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    I have two 622's, so yes. I have all MPEG4 recievers. Is this something I would have to do myself? As it sounds like Dish doesn't want to do anything about it. If so, are there any tips you would have for someone who has never set up a dish before?

    Eastern Arc + International Channels

    Hey everyone, I have a few questions regarding the EA, just so I can have an some confirmed information for when I call back Dish Network tomorrow. I'll be calling in hopes of getting the new HD channels added today. Currently I have 2 dishes, Super Dish and Dish 500, (at least I'm fairly...

    New HD is up!

    Hey Guys, I just want to update my situation: I just got off the phone with Dish Network after an HOUR of talking to a regular CSR and then her Supervisor. Both of them coming to the same conclusion: I cannot get the new HD without removing my International Channels or my HD Locals. I have...

    New HD is up!

    I just spoke to a CSR via the online chat, and was told that there is no way that I can get the new channels in my area... They flat out said that upgrading my dish would not change anything. I'm in the CT area, could anyone help me out here? I'm DYING for FSC in HD!

    New HD is up!

    Hello everyone, I'm sure this is going to be a very common question for a while, but I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this whole 61.5 HD ordeal. I live on the east coast and currently have both a Super Dish and a Dish 500. Is there ANY way I could get these new channels...

    10 Voom Channels Gone, How Do You Feel?

    Well.. I think we're all starting to forget that Dish DID just have ANOTHER complete failure of a launch just.. a month and a half ago?.. As much as Dish has been saying that it has NOT affected their launch of HD Content.. it most obviously did.. Not to add the "17" or so channels yesterday...
