Shaw giving free 830 receivers to "valued" customers. Not exactly free, but they called me and offered an 830 on a free rental and no charge for shipping. I took the deal. They said that eventually all channels will disappear from 600 series receivers. Anyone else get this deal? I should point...

I need to re-tune 119W. I have an old 4900 which I can easily take outside by the dish. Is it possible to use this set-up? If yes, what TP should I tune to? thanks for your help.

Just wondering if it's possible to subscribe to only the international channels on 118. All I want is cricket - nothing else! Is there a minimum package? Thanks.

My 211K has recently been losing contact with the external hard drive resulting in the need to do a re-boot each time to restore the recorded programs. It seems to happen after a recording, or series of recordings. Sometimes, it needs 2 or 3 re-boots before the PVR feature is restored. Very...

Just showed up today at channel #9830 as part of the international package. I think it's Greek and has soccer and basketball. More soccer is all good!

I have the IWP which includes Fox Sports 1, but it is not listed in the guide in HD. I have the HD add-on, so I figure I should be able to get it in HD. I watched the Arsenal vs Manchester City football this morning and the SD quality was atrocious. (So was the game!) The text on screen was...

Any one know where I can find the Test match between India and England? Willow TV used to carry the English games, but not any more. I'm guessing the TV rights were too expensive for Willow. Any info would be appreciated.

When I checked my bill, I had been charged $95 for a tech visit which I never had, nor ordered. I used the "chat" option to contact DISH and they were very polite and quick to solve my problem. No idea how the charge got there. For my inconvenience they offered me free Cinemax or Showtime for 3...

Saw a Dish ad while watching Fox Sports 1, for $10 off HBO and Cinemax. Anyone try for this? Is it just for new subs? The ad was so fast I didn't have time to read the small print. Assuming regular pricing this would be $18 for HBO, $13 for MAX, so the deal would be $21 a month for 6 months...

I saw the tail end of a commercial for Starz but didn't catch the details. Is there a half price deal? Nothing on the Dish website.

Since I don't need any of the channels on 77, I replaced the triple EA LNBF with the new EA.2 version for 72.7 and 61.5. 72.7 comes in OK, but I can't find 61.5. The signal on 72.7 is certainly better than I was getting with the triple LNB I read somewhere that there are new angle settings for...

Can't find anything on the Dish website, but was wondering if they might offer a reduced price to subscribe to the channels without the DVD service. Anyone know?

Does anyone know if the Dish magazine and guide is available "on-line" only? Don't need the printed version. Is there a lower price? Thanks.

I upgraded to a larger EHD for my 211k and now I want to reformat the old drive for use on my PC with Win XP. Windows will not recognize the drive, making it impossible to reformat. Does anyone know how to do this? I have an old PC running Ubuntu Linux, and it does see the drive and all the...

I'm looking for a 311 for the spare room. PM me if you have one for sale. Thanks.

Does anyone have the VCR code for a samsung SV5000W for the 21.0 Dish remote? There are several codes which work for basic functions such as on/off, play, rewind etc., but none of them work for the menu system. It's therefore impossible to set the clock and other menu features. I bought the VCR...

I have several older receivers, including the following: 2 x Bell (Expressvu) 4700 1 x Bell 2700 1 x Dish 4900 1 x Shaw Direct (starchoice) motorola 405 They are all free of account charges and all have cards. None of them have been hacked and are all working Are they worth anything? I will...

I tried to find Telemundo on the Dish webpage - can someone tell me what package it's in? There's Olympic coverage and I would like to add it to my sub.

I have 3 sats connected to a DP34 - 110,118,119 with the output going to a 211k. I also have a 722k connected to an EA dish receiving 72 and 61.5. Here's my question: Can I connect the output from the DP34 to the sat input on the EA setup to give me all 5 sats on my 722?

Saw a Dish commercial on TNT offering Showtime at half price, limited time offer. anyone take advantage? what's the deal?

You may want to delete the "help" banner from the Sirius forum, since there is obviously nobody there to help subscribers. I also found their CSR's on the phone to be pretty useless, both in the US and Canada. There is a lack of product knowledge, unlike Dish, where the DIRT team are extremely...

I have a Sirius SIR-GM1 radio hard wired to my Monsoon stereo in my Pontiac Grand Prix. It was activated and used for 2 years on Sirius Canada. I have moved to the US and now want to activate the radio on SiriusXM US. I have paid a one year subscription and tried to activate on-line, but without...

I purchased a combo 118/119 DP LNBF and connected it to a SW21. I get a good signal in the 50's on both sats, but many channels on 119 show the 015 loss of signal screen. For example, 299 (Reelz) works, but 300 (hBO) does not. I am subscribed to 250/HBO/Showtime/Starz and Cricket. The 118...

Probably been answered before, but I was wondering if the OTA module can receive "foreign" stations. For example, if you live in Seattle, can you receive CBC, CTV, Global etc. from Vancouver or Victoria, BC? Also, what happens if you connect a cable system feed to the module? Will it decode...

I just became a PUB member and encourage everyone to do the same. The access to DIRT members is worth the price of admission alone. Many thanks to Ray and Zach, DIRT members who have been more than helpful to me personally.
