    HR34 Sluggish

    Wouldn't they see that as a receiver upgrade and want to charge the customer?

    2 hoppers

    So can two Hoppers actually talk to each other now....see each other's recordings? I was looking online for that and found some (obviously, might be old info) that said they couldn't talk to each other.

    No Plan to add TruTv Hd etc.

    I've also emailed them regarding the additional HD channels. I specifically mentioned, E!, Hint(H2), TruTV. What the OP got was a canned response. I got that same response verbally too when they called me to discuss my email. LOL I made it clear that if they don't have the channels I want in...

    Questions about the new XiP Receivers?

    I know this thread is almost a month old since last reply but, from what I can tell reading some posts. You can have more then one 813 and a x amount of 110? My ideal setup right now would be 2 813s and 1 110. I would like to be able to sit at any TV in the house and watch a program that is...

    Multi-Room Viewing

    Does Dish Network offer a service that is like DirecTV's Whole-Home DVR/Multi-Room Viewing? I have three TVs. Two HD DVRs and a HD Receiver. I can watch any of the shows recorded on EITHER DVRs from any room in the home. My HD Receiver can record shows on either of the two DVRs but...

    Dish and ESPN

    I'm quite sure there is some contractual stipulation that prevents ESPN being pulled from core packages. I think that very issue has actually come up before when ESPN prices were being talked about.

    Dish and ESPN

    Possibly, but, ESPN is what costs the most as well. Also, most of the networks, if not all, don't have overpaid game players. Also, I wouldn't object to the high priced sports channels being all lumped together in a separate sports package. I do agree that pulling all together probably...

    Dish and ESPN

    Well, I will say I'm not a sports fan. I realize I'm in the minority here. However, I should not have to subsidize someone who is a sports fan so they can have the channel in the regular line up driving up the cost for everyone. I shouldn't also have to help pay for the over-the-top salaries...

    February 2011 Price Increases

    Sounds about right. That aside, what the hell are they talking about $6 for the first two receivers?

    February 2011 Price Increases

    So I should see a total increase of $2 total for additional receiver fees ($1 more for each extra box). The confusing part is when they talk about $6 for the first two receivers.

    February 2011 Price Increases

    I'm still confused on the additional receiver fee. Right now, I have 3 receivers. One is included in the package price and then I'm paying $5 for each 2nd and 3rd receivers. Can someone explain what my fees will be now with this?

    DISH Service in Seattle, WA

    Thanks for the replies. So it still looks like 110,119 and 129. The last time I checked into DISH 129 was kind of I guess wobbly or had its issues. They wanted a second dish for it. Did they replace it?

    DISH Service in Seattle, WA

    Thanks for the replies. I wasn't sure 129 was still being used or not. That is the one sat I might have problems with. There is only one place that a dish can go and LoS at 129 might be an issue. I will see what they say.

    DISH Service in Seattle, WA

    Can anyone tell me what the latest setup that DISH uses for service in Seattle, WA...zipcode 98106. Specifically, the 250 channel package with HD/DVR. I was wondering what satellite would need to be used and what orbital locations would I need view of to get this particular setup. Any info is...

    Need Input

    I have an HR22-100. I'm on my second box because of two reasons. One, I get weird transponder number readings. Sometimes high(good) in the 80's 90s then it will come up in the 60's low 70s....even at 101. My R22 upstairs works great all the time with excellent readouts on 101. The HR22 is also...

    HR2x / R22 CE Release 1/23

    HR2x / R22 CE Release 1/23

    Well, in this release, it still seems to be a bit laggy. Not nearly as bad as it was before though. I am still having those "Tuner 2" issues. Where transponder checks show really low signals. I'm not sure if it has to do with software or not. I already replaced the box so I'm thinking its...

    New CE Edition of DirecTV2PC (pre-beta)

    I am having an issue with this. I keep on trying to activate but, it will not let me. It says to make sure I'm connected to the internet and try again. I am connected but, no go. Any input anyone?

    Should I Use Native Mode? HR22-100 via HDMI

    Thanks for the responses everyone. I will toy with it and stick with what is better.

    Should I Use Native Mode? HR22-100 via HDMI

    If I remember correctly, using native mode is when the box will revert to 720p, 480i/p or 1080i mode(s) whenever which is appropriate by the signal. Right now, I have native mode off with it staying on 1080i. Is the box trying to upconvert all things to 1080i when I do this? Should I be using...

    Satellite Grounding Question

    There isn't a way to get under these buildings. I have a tech coming out Friday to check on a possible receiver problem that I seem to be having. I guess I will have him look around.

    Satellite Grounding Question

    Not that I'm aware of. I looked outside.....didn't see anything. There might be a outside faucet a few feet away but, I read that isn't a good thing to use.

    Satellite Grounding Question

    Hey guys. My new sat system was installed about a week ago or so. I'm sure the guy didn't ground the system. We discussed it briefly. There doesn't appear to be a grounding point in the area where my dish has to be installed. The electrical boxes and such that are outside of the building...

    Flat Cable & HD Signals

    Well, I would only be using one flat cable for each line. I don't even think that the flat cables are a foot long. So I should be okay if I searched for HD rated flat cables such as these below and just make sure I don't bend them sharply? Flat Coaxial RG6 Cable Window/Door Satellite HDTV 3...
