    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    Yes, it only does it when it's playing off the hard drive (such as after I pause it or watching a recorded event) however, it doesn't do it on all channels, only some.. it seems like HBO is the worst. This is my 4th DVR and they all have done the exact same thing, so I don't really think it's...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    What I mean't was that my house was already wired from when I had Dish Installed in 2007. I bought my home back in 2007 and it did not have any wires for phone or cable... so when I had Dish installed in 2007, they had to run coax all over my house to the Dish. Either way, I tried the 722 in...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    I haven't thought about that. That would be a completely different coax run, duplexer, and LNB I believe. Well, the 222k isn't a DVR, so I never could test the recording/pausing on it, but that receiver does have issues with local channels. I'll be interested to see if my 722 has...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    61.5: Transponder 29: 62-63 Transponder 14: 71-72 I would love for another tech to come back out, however, Dish work in my area is done by a local contractor and they only have a handful of employee's, so it's not easy to me to get a different tech. What's strange is that on top of the tech...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    Well, it does this on both of my TV's. One is connected via SVIDEO, and the other by Coax (which has a splitter so it also feeds into my ATI Capture Card) As for checking the sat connections, they are secure as I checked them not long ago and I've been having this issue ever since having this...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    The only thing I did was pause it, pressed play, and accessed the DVR Menu. I did not touch anything when it was skipping. This is the 3rd box that I have had that has this issue.

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    It doesn't appear so. I am able to get HD Channel's and whatnot. I do have a monitor with a HDMI input that I could use to test it, but I don't have a HDMI Cable.

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    Okay. Here are my signal levels: 61.5 West - 42-43 72.7 West - 48-50 77 West - 54-55 When I had Dish back in 2007, My signal levels were always in the 90-100 range, of course, it was a different dish and pointed in a different direction. The skipping and freezing only happens on some...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    For me, Dish Network was a better choice. I like having the 2 room DVR so that I can watch my recordings in my home office, and my bedroom. It also saves from paying $5 extra a month as well. I also like the channel line-up from Dish. They have nearly every channel I want whereas DirecTV, nor my...

    Wow! What has happened to Dish?

    Note One: I have a 722 DVR as well as a 222k. To date, I have not had any issues with the 222k other than the Tech Issues as described below (including the local channel issue) however, the box has not needed replacement. Note Two: I had Dish in 2007 and Early 2008. I had the 625 and 322. I...
