    Any chance whole house DVR like U-verse

    Whole house DVR is nice but what I would like DISH to "copy" is the 4-tuner thing. I record using the 2-SAT and 1-OTA (total 3) tuners but sure would like more tuners to record more shows at the same time!

    Dish Showing No Favoritism in Politics

    With a nominee who doesn't even know how to use a computer (newfangled equipment), it doesn't surprise that the RNC would be using out-dated technology!

    How can I get my HD channels for TV2?

    I do exactly that. I have my TV1 hooked up via DVI and my TV2 hooked up (with 75ft) Component Video Cables. Both TV's have excellent HD pictures. So, yes, it can be done!

    Dish 942 L280 Software Bug Reports

    Thanks for the suggestion but been-there-done-that. I have rebooted (both soft (front power button) and hard (pulling the plug)) at least a half a dozen times. I have also unplugged the unit and left it that way for over an hour and then replugged it in. I have done the forced download (check...

    I no longer am receiving OTA channel guide info on half of my channels. I deleted and rescanned the digital channels but still have the same problem. LA channels 2,5,7 and 11 are missing the guide info .... all other OTA channel guide info is there.

    Best 921 Component Cables?

    I used the same cables that I used with my 6000. I too have a Mits 55-511 and use component video cables (Monster cable brand) at a pretty far distance (approx 20 ft). The picture is perfect. I also use Monster brand Optical cable to my JVC Dolby Digital receiver. I tried the Dish supplied...

    Scott, we could sure use your help with the latest 921 fiasco....

    Scott, I do not own a 811 (had a 6000) and now have the 921. My problem is that I watch my OTA from a neighboring DMA. I understand that the 811 shows guide data from adjacent DMAs. Is this true? It would be great if the answer is yes and that the 921 will (eventually) get this feature.

    921 OTA Tuner Ranks #3 Behind 811 and 6000

    My 921 OTA tuner is heads-and-shoulders above my (now sold) 6000. The signals now stay tuned with very little "fade away". My 6000 was good but my 921 is just better!
