I'm behind Dish in this lawsuit. I'm sure sure of the exact legalities of the suit, but I'm sure if you were to invent product 'Widget1' and patened the idea and product and after your product was out for a while and someone came along and took and used your same idea and named it something...

I just sent back my 811 and I kept the remote. Is it possible for it to work with my 510? Thanks Paul

I have an 811 and called over the weekend and will be getting a new dish plus a 211 for the $49 fee The 622 upgrade fee for $99, from what I understand is only for people who own their own 921 and 942 receivers. Paul

Ever since Dish removed Lifetime my wife has started up again about having a baby. Charlie, i'll pay anything at this point to get Lifetime back on the air!

Theres a lot more to get my undies in a bind then having Dish take up 5 minutes of my record time of 100 hours. I watched a few seconds of it to find out what it was and deleted it. No biggee. Paul

Other than getting a pretty good deal for signing up, it gives your friend $5 off his bill a month for 10 months. I recently gave a good friend of mine a gift card and it was within a week he was up and running with 3 rx's and one them a dual tuner dvr and they love it. I know people on...

I'm not sure when I got mine. I haven't watched much tv on my 811 in the last few weeks, but I have noticed the channel changes are quicker. Paul

I've also have had this problem recently. It seems to run forever and I wake up in the middle of the night and its running and wake up and its still running. I end up just unplugging it. Paul

I had this issue a couple weeks ago where the letters were jumbled and odd characters were displayed in the program guide. A quick reboot of the 811 and all was fine. Paul

Last night I turned on my 811 (w/2.89). It was the first time i turned it on since about Wednesday. First thing I noticed was the program guide and and channel information lettering was all garbled. It almost looked like one of spam emails you would get from Russia. Very odd characters. I...

I got my update yesterday. Went from 2.84 to 2.89. Haven't really noticted a difference. I only watched about an hour of tv last night. I had no problems switching from HD to SD or from local HD to Sat HD to SD. Everything seemed to work fine. My menus all seemed to be correct, nothing to report...

I posted earlier that my 501 had some pixalation or blocking when going into the new menu. That seems to have cleared up and have had no problems with the updates. Paul

I got my updates probably yesterday at some point. I came home and the menus were looking pretty nice. I have a 501 and 510 and both got the updates. The 501 though seems to have an issue when going into the DVR menus, there was a lot of pixel dropouts. I didn't have time to play with it much...

Having worked in a satellite uplink facility, I can give you one piece of advice. You need patience and if you don't, learn to have patience. I had experience in 2 different fields in an uplink facility. One was the retransmission of signals for a digital satellite company. Basically we...

John, maybe you need to switch your aligence to the Sox. They are tearing it up so far this season. :D Do we know what channels the new networks well be located in the guide? Paul

I agree, this is not the thread to be discussing what is obsolete and whats not. At this point i'm happy to be seeing that we will be getting 10 new HD channels this weekend. Hopefully with no 2nd dish or no price increase (at this time) Paul

Is it my assumption that at this point we are waiting to find out if the customers that have HD now will be able to get these channels on Sunday without having to install a 2nd dish? Paul

CSR's are always the last to know any information and with some of their CSR's located outside the country, I can see why they would not have the info needed to relay to the customer. Paul

I guess i may be missing something or I've read to quickly over this thread, but will these channels be included with the current HD package at no extra charge? I currently have Dish 500 and from a previous post it looks like I won't need anything else. I called Dish's CS and got a CSR who...

I've always had pretty good luck with Dish CS support. Never been disconnected, the only issues i'v had is the language barrier. Otherwise they've always been courteous and helpful. Paul

Wow I don't think I've even seen such hostility towards other members regarding a harmless topic. I think chaddux was just making sure that you didn't buy some knockoff box off of ebay. Granted your original post had a typo, but i'm sure there are counterfeiters out there trying to sell E*...

How many channels do you think it would be possible to put on 1 transponder with the mpeg 4 conversion? When I worked at a now defunct satellite company, we were at the point of 6 channels per transponder. That was about 7 years ago. I'm sure technology has improved since then even with mpeg...

Hmmm, Weird, I Don't Think I've Seen Anyone Post Before That Capitalizes The First Letter In Every Word. whaT woulD bE weirD, woulD bE capitalizinG thE lasT letteR iN everY worD. :D Regarding mpeg 4, at this points its a wait and see game for D* and E*. Who will be first with thier version...
