I am a bit confused again. I called Dish yesterday and gave them my R and S numbers, they told me the receiver could be activated on an account (never gave them my account number, since I don't have one any more). Are you saying some time in the future they are going to prevent activation of...

Does this also affect a 921? (I was ebaying my old 921 that I disconnected a few months ago and someone wrote me and pointed me to this thread.) Thanks, Note: I called Dish and gave them my S & R numbers and they said the receiver could be activated. They said they knew nothing about it...

I also downgraded to AT60. I wish I could downgrade even more (we only watch 2 or 3 of the channels). We have netflix and love it. We replaced almost all our sat watching with netflix.

npep, So you can record OTA with an un-authorized but connected 921 (without the guide). If so, that is good. While it is a pain to manually record shows, it is not impossible (we manually recorded OTA shows for many months on the 921 (before the OTA guide was implemented)). Maybe my...

With the future upgrade to the MPEG4, I was wondering what are the future uses of a 921. The obvious use is a SD receiver that also receives/records OTA HD channels. Does anyone know if a deactivated or disconnected (ie, not paying the $10 a month fee(5 for extra receiver, 5 for PVR) can...

richmert, You may want to try the new Sony DVRs coming out in Dec, the Sony DHGHDD500 or Sony DHGHDD250. I think the 250 (with a 250G HD) retails for $800. The 500 (with a 500 HD) retails for $1000. Mike

There are multiple technical ways you can skip commercials. A few years ago I had a JVC VCR that could automatically skip commercials. It did a pretty good job. But, I agree. This is not going to happen. The content providers will never let this happen. They would sue any company that...

I have a couple of questions that I could not find the answer. 1.) Can the 921 view OTA HD/DT channels without be subscribed? 2.) Can the 921 view OTA HD/DT channels without being connected to the dish? 3.) Can the 921 record OTA HD/DT on the above two questions. Thanks, Mike (I...
