    H21-100 problem after power failure

    I have been with D for a little over 1 month. I have the 5 LNB multi-sat dish. One H21-100 downstairs and one HR21-100 upstairs. Since switching to D I have had two power failures. The HR21 resets normally when the power is restored, no problems. However with the H21 when I turn it on after...

    Thinking of switching from Dish to DirectTV

    That’s good to know Rad. I have about had it with Charlie’s soon and maybe with national HD additions. I am really leaning towards making the jump. I watched the Sea Launch coverage on their web site, and I was impressed with the interview with the Direct representative. He laid out DirecTV’s...

    Thinking of switching from Dish to DirectTV

    Thanks for the links. The only channel lineup I could find was from last year. One concern I still have, is Dish's agreement with The Big Ten, excludes customers in the Philly DMA from receiving Big Ten, unless you subscribe to an additional Multi Sports Package. If you live anywhere else in...

    Thinking of switching from Dish to DirectTV

    I am also in the process of making my decision on switching from E to D and I have a few questions. I am aware of the comparisons between the Dish’s HD DVR and Directs, but I am looking for any comparisons between Directs HD receiver without DVR and Dish’s VIP 211. Features, reliability etc...

    Please stop me from going to Dicectv

    Stop You? I will probably be joining you. No new HD channels since about November. They took the Big Ten away from me this week. Unless Charlie tells his legal team to start signing contracts with the National HD channels, we will not see any of those ( soon, maybe) channels that were...

    Losing Signal - Dish Network 110

    I also have lost 110. It started between midnight and 12:30AM. I ran systems check and 119 and 61.5 are in the green, but 110 is showing red. I did a switch check and the results show no 110. On the systems check instead of showing 110 it is now displaying "Conn" I have the 811 receiver.

    Getting angry! Anyone else get the runaround?

    I had my install yesterday. It was scheduled for between 8:00 AM. & 12 noon. The tech showed up at about 8:20 AM. He was very professional and did a terrific job. About an hour before he finished up, a quality control tech showed up and checked the completed work, taking photos of same. I...

    Need info on Dish network

    Hi. I am a new member to this forum, so I maybe asking questions which have already been addressed. I am currently a Comcast Cable user. With the rate hikes, billing errors, lack of many HD channels, along with other issues I am strongly considering a switch to Dish Network. I have learned a...
