As a Browns fan, I liked having all of the games going at once. I only switched over to the game proper when it got down to the wire in the 4th quarter and for OT. For everything else, they did a fine job of switching to the game often enough so I didn't feel as though I was missing anything...

Haha figures, I JUST caved in and ordered Multi-sport on Monday morning

Awesome! I just downgraded to Silver, and ESPN-U was one of two channels that I was going to miss

Tribune?

Oh, didn't see that. The air dates are wrong. For Maddow for instance, each episode is listed as airing "9-8-08" or something. It's always the same date like that. But other times, it'll record something as a "new episode" even though it clearly lists the correct original air date. So for Burn...

what do you mean?

Yeah, this isn't even using DishPass. If I tell it to get The Daily Show, new episodes only, it records every airing: 11pm, 1am, 7am, 11am, 7pm, etc

Yeah, I write and podcast about TV for a website, so I have a ton of timers set, plus I have two roommates who are needlessly inconvenienced when the tuners get tied up with repeats of The Daily Show and Rachel Maddow. And the problem is, for things like Maddow which is on weekdays at 9, there...

My timers keep grabbing episodes that aren't new of Royal Pains and Burn Notice and stuff. Also, If I set it up to record new episodes of something like The Daily Show, it sets up recordings for every time it's on throughout the day. And show is supposed to run over its time for a few minutes...

DAMN IT I set up the 11:30 showing to record and now it's raining so I'm screwed Now I have to pay for the PPV if I want to watch in HD :(

It works. If you heard that in real life, you would've known exactly what I meant ;)

"I was hoping for a sandwich before bedtime" Same structure. You're saying that doesn't work?

Actually, I'm pretty sure Time Warner doesn't get AMC HD either.

um. My sentence is fine. "I was hoping for AMC HD before Mad Men." I was treating "Mad Men" as an event. As in "I was hoping (to receive) AMC HD before Mad Men ('s premiere)." But it's cool. Keep on raging there, champ.

I was hoping for AMC HD before Mad Men. It's just not the same in standard def :(

The "Lowest All-Digital Programing"? What's with the self-deprecation, Dish? ;)

Happened to me too, I was settling in to read the paper and the Classic Jazz channel crapped out on me. Had to switch to the "Aud" channels, whatever those are. Found a nice station, "Moodscapes", that I wouldn't have found otherwise and that worked very well for the relaxing atmosphere I...

Mine does this sometimes, too. Both TVs, Single and Dual modes

I hear that. Once I get AMC and I guess E! (for The Soup) and G4 (for the random stuff I'll watch on there sometimes) in HD, I can't think of a single other channel I'd want in HD that they don't provide.

I didn't even loosen the bolts. I physically pulled the dish (by the base so as not to break something) towards the East and got a signal strength of ~80 that would go back down whenever I let go. After doing this a few times, I got it to stay at between 60-70 by itself

That was it! Must have been the guy the landlords sent to mow the lawn today bumping the dish or something. I actually moved it slightly east and it worked perfectly. Signal went from ~30 to ~70 Guy's coming out Thursday to make sure it's permanently fixed, but this was a great temp fix...

Oh, and some of the channels work, apparently. So far my local PBS is fine. Haven't found any more that work, but will keep looking. EDIT: USA works too EDIT 2: And SyFy. Ok, so I get some channels, but most of them result in "acquiring signal"

I don't know much of anything about my set-up since someone else installed it. How can I check for those? I do know I have a Dish 500. It's on a pole outside and runs into the house which was already wired for cable. It runs from the wall inside to the receiver with a couple of splitters just...

Some of the tests: "Point Dish" says Locked - EchoStar West 119, Signal Strength ~27, give or take When I go to "Check Switch" and run a test, it tells me the following: "The check switch test has found you have fewer satellites than previously detected..." Under "System Info" in box "g"...

I've had no signal for about 5 hours this Tech support person I'm on the phone with is a joke. I've been "Aquiring Signal" for the whole time. It gets to 5 of 5 and resets back to 0 of 5. The support person had me do some tests on the receiver and kept saying it sounded like a bad or loose...
