I am currently there and doing both. I have D* with 2 DirecTivo's for US programming I have E* with a 508 for two international channels A friend of mine has the same with a 522 and while he has NBR (not even close to the accuracy of SeasonPasses) his 522 is a lot more unstable then my 508...

Very nice! I wonder if the two will have baby dishes soon? :)

I usually (re)move the tree (I live in the woods so I have to get out the chainsaw and machete to secure my LOS every once in a while :cool: )

That's just plain stupid of E*... I was an expat from Germany - I didn't have an SSN for 3 years because I was on a business assignment, paid and employed in Germany, traveling with the appropriate visa... I got US POTS, I got a cellphone (the first one I had to give Nynex/BellAtlantic a $500...

As others have said: It's the customers choice to take AT60 and lease 'free' equipment or not take it and buy equipment. I want the later route and only have the $5 bogus fee in addition to my international package.... I am also pretty sure the whole asian package is on 121 and you don't need...

Actually - it happens at exactly 2am not 2:20am in each of the time zones - so the US makes four regional switches...

49 pieces of candy $1.01 in cash

I was in exactly the same boat. I continue have D* for my 'main' programming and signed up with E* for two international channels (using a 508). I could not part with having a bunch of two tuner DirecTivos that never crash and always record what they are supposed and trading them in for...

The other site you posted the same question yesterday! :no

I am very happy with my Harmony 659 from the x-mas party charlie/chat that took over the space of 6 remotes on my nightstand :D So the prices are real :yes and very much appreciated!

It was actually added to the subscribable lineup on February 3 - but somehow the press announcement wasn't made earlier (today it was also announced in Germany - as I already got a call from some Friends from 'back home' - and I told them 'I already got it)... For me having German programming...

Thanks for the explanation! It should work then :) Channel 726 is ProSiebenSat1Welt (from Germany) - I'm one of those immigrants - came to New York in '95 for a 2 month consulting job and somehow that job is still going on :D It's nice to have a bit of TV from 'the old home'...

I have exactly the same problem with the only referral I gave so far... I was there when my friend ordered. He called again last week to have them verify the referral number - and it looks ok from his end - but my account still says 'active' for that card.... Please let me know what you find out.

Hi, I am thinking of moving to a 522 - if NBR works well enough... (I currently have a 508)... I subscribe to two international channels (that's the only thing I subscribe to) that have many reruns of the same show (typically one showing with 1-2 reruns). Some shows are older so the way 'new...

The 510 receives IR signals. The Harmony 680 will work just fine (I have a Harmony 659 and a MX-500 here - both controlling my 508 (same receiver, smaller HD) with no trouble).

Be careful with the LNB and Receiver! Unless you own them Dish will want them back - and if you don't return them in the alotted time they will charge you several hundred dollars penalty!

Just saw your second post... Was it only Windy or also rainy? Maybe you got water in one of the connections and it took some time to dry out?

Sounds like a sloppy install. I have serveral 30" Dishes outside (one for D* one for E*) and a 20" Dish... The oldest one of them is sitting there for 4 years without any need for realignment - and survived several storms, two with 80+ mph wind.... I do my own installs - maybe that's the...

If those are PAL only TVs they won't be able to produce a picture... They need to be multi norm TVs (specifically PAL AND NTSC) otherwise they are just huge doorstops in the US.

I had this problem a couple of times over the last week (approximately 1 week...) on a channel on 121 TP23 on my 508. It does not seem to impact the DVR recordings - only when watching live TV (at least that's the only time I saw it). After the message the screen is blank and stays blank until I...

A friend of mine used one of my virtual Club DISH cards to sign up on December 22 and got his system installed on December 26. He called the right number (from the email) and gave them the right code (I was with him when he made the call). So far that card still shows 'active' as the status on...

No problem with 121 here... Watching New Years in Germany on 725 on TP23 as we speak....

You can also try the optical output and see if that helps. The optical output can output DD and PCM for regular Stereo... I don't have trouble with the 508 but noticed that the RCA/Stereo out is relatively 'loud' - has a relatively high signal level - compared to my other equipment. I used to...

I assume you are a GlobecastTV subscriber for GermanTV now. There is a special that allows you to get all the free Dish equipment required to transition to them without subscribing to AT60 or something equivalent. Checkout the http://german.tv website for details and the phone number...
