Not interested at all unless the programming is at least what they had before with Discovery et al.

LOL we're used to abandonment, we're the Orby Orphans!

Is your coax existing or new? If existing, are there any splitters in line? Seems to me your receiver showing your installation page on TV, ought to show at least SIGNAL (not quality) even if it isnt pointed correctly, so long as there is an uninterrupted connection between LNB to receiver and...

Lots of people totally disgusted with whiney millionaire traitors displaying their disrespect for the country that made them rich. Nah, lack of sports wasn't "the" issue at all.

I never had Dish before, but after the demise of Orby, I got that same offer and signed up for it. Only have about $20 left on the $300 card LOL. My wife got that same offer a few days ago. Can't switch accounts because of the $20/month early termination fee.

Being unfamiliar with paying for tv, I subscribed to Orby, not recognizing some trouble signs. One of the signs I would recognize now, after my Orby experience would be, signing up with a startup or small company with a limited market area and limited possibilities for a greater market area. I...

Yah, but I was drinkin at the time...

I hate walking into a room and realizing I don't remember why I went in there, then leaving the room hoping I'll remember why. Sometimes it works....

OK, found the item I torment my friends with on their birthdays.... "I actually look forward to birthdays and growing older. The older I get, the fewer things it takes to make me happy... which is good because I can't remember where I put 'em anyway. And if I do stumble across them, it's...

No, I think there are more of us than will admit to it. A few years ago I wrote a sort of funny little item that I used to include in the birthday cards I sent out. I was going to paste it in for you but.... I can't find it! I think it's on my laptop at home. I'll look for it when I return in a...

You got links Junkie?

I don't remember if it will timer record or not, but seems...

That's what I did, got an enclosure, reformatted the disk and moved on. So many projects, so little time. I bought a new OTA recorder for around $30 and put it away in case I ever leave Dish. The Orby box is long gone.

Try the Epson eco tank. Had mine over a year and have never added a single drop of ink. The colors still look full and the black is still 2/3 full. More than paid for itself in what I DIDN'T spend on cartridges.

Got my new drive enclosure today and inserted the Orby drive and plugged it into my old laptop, and it wasn't recognized. Clicked on "help" and there were instructions on how to format a drive. Stumbled around a little bit and got it formatted, and downloaded a ton of pictures and MP3s, and...

Thanks for the reply. Although I was involved in FTA for a number of years, I was always confused by the shortcuts and other terms the really smart people used, such as "node". About the only satellite tech term I know is "LNB". About all I can do is find a satellite and point the dish. I have...

After having Dish almost a week (first time ever), I find that I have totally misinterpreted the problem I had and am still having. Every day, certain channels in my fave list, pixelate and are unwatchable. I went to the diagnostics page and would see the sig "meter" and observe the signal...

Can't PROVE any criminal intent, but here's someone looking to score. No mention that it's useless for its intended purpose. I won't comment on what I think about this...

I don't remember it having a format menu but I'll dig it out and see.

I have a Seagate 500 gig drive that I used for the DVR on my FTA box. Pulled the cable off the front and plugged it into the Orby drive and plugged the USB end into my PC. Nothing... the PC does not even show this drive connected, or in the list of drives, so... I have to think the drive is...

I was told it was a Hopper 2. Is there a way to tell for sure?

Well, again yesterday and today, having pixelation making one of our fave channels (Grit) and some others unwatchable. This morning I got back on the diagnostics page to see the sig quality, and it was bouncing up and down like before. Happened to see a section labeled "tuner", and and it was...

LOL That's nearly the same as my answer. I told the girl that Orby is out of business. She didn't show any reaction, just processed the return, so I couldn't tell if she was aware of that or not.

Just got back from Best Buy in TC, and wasn't in the store 60 seconds and they credited my debit card for the $105.99 spent on the Orby DVR. If you bought one recently, you ought to give it a shot, the only question asked was if anything was wrong with it.
