    VIP722 in "Test Mode"

    Hello. I have had 5 or 6 Dish receivers in Test Mode. When I call A CSR to find out if there is a way to get it out of "test mode" I am told NO it needs to be RAed. Is this true? Can Test mode be reset or is it a foul up at dish when they do a referb? Thank you for your time. Monk.

    Retailers Alert!!! How can beat this deal?

    Several of our customers have received a mailer direct from Dish that offers them, a Free 722 DVR among other things.. If we have to charge our own customers $100.00 for a 722 how can we compete with Dish for a FREE one? Mike

    Nawww Maaaan. the last time I carried a pistol on the job was when I delivered pizzas 15 years ago in North Chicago. I have never felt the need since. But this guy is like a pit bull, and as far as I am concerned, you never turn your back on one. Mike

    How would you deal with...

    Well i got out alive and unharmed. The customer was still all jacked up on the poor service he got from the Dish CSR's and blamed me as a "Dish Tech" when I work for a retailer and not Dish directly. I did not matter how many times I told him "I am just the guy with the tools" He still saw me as...

    Is it possible to swap a 722k for a 722?

    Personaly I'd change dvd burners to one that has RGB inputs. But if the 722k you have now bugs you that much, I'd call Dish and talk to the retention/customer loyalty dept. and tell what you want just not why. OR Do the external hhd option and learn how to use linux. Mike
