    SD Conus duplicates in the EA?

    What is the purpose of providing SD conus duplicates in the EA? All the receivers in the EA (except internationals) would already be VIP series and capable of downconverting HD to SD for non HD subs. It makes no sense.

    222k OTA tuner without sub or without sub to locals?

    For anyone that actually has a 222k in hand, do you need to sub to locals in order to use the atsc tuner side or does it work even right out of the box on a new unactivated box before you call up dish to activate it? I realize that guide data might be missing or the PSIP that the stations...

    MPEG-2 QPSK SD internationals @ 61.5

    Why is dish still dragging their feet on moving a plan forward to transition all the remaining SD QPSK MPEG-2 internationals to MPEG-4 SD on 8PSK transponders, then they could restore all of the internationals back on 61.5 by using MPEG-4 SD 8PSK. Right now the compression levels on 61.5...
