Seems as much as you 'guys' visit over at www.DBSTalk.com , you would know by now that it's than, not "then". Think of me as a "freelance grammar consultant". I'm paid what I'm worth. :no :D

Go vertical I call it my dish tree - a wee bit obsolete, but I keep the Voom dish up just to irritate the apt manager. :D

It's commonly called 'pixelization' - caused either by marginal signal strength, or a software bug in your receiver. If you are a recent sub, the latter may be the problem until your receiver catches up with all the updates. I've had Voom for six days now, and I'm just now seeing the...

It sound like your installers were either inexperienced or in a hurry. They should know in advance what the AZ/EL numbers are. Ask for another installer. The aiming/signal acquisition process requires the dish to be mounted and adjusted incrementally by only 1 or 2 degrees at a time. After each...

That "expert' opinion obviously struck a chord with you. When I hear blanket criticisms of that sort, I tend to discount them considering the source. If your installer did say that, then he was being disloyal to someone who helping put food on his table. The Voom receiver is capable of being a...

In relation to the cost of a calibration, display size does not matter, but because the calibration settings are input/source specific, the number of inputs you want calibrated may be a factor. Gregg did my 53" Panny in February. My primary issues with the set were geometry and red push. He...

Land Line Connection Not Required... Clearly, the Voom IRD does not require a phone line connection. I haven't had a physical land line since I got a wireless nationwide internet connection for my notebook pc with T-Mobile last year. My Voom install was done yesterday. The installer didn't...

Land Line Connectioin Not Required Clearly, the Voom IRD does not require a phone line connection. I haven't had a physical land line since I got a wireless nationwide internet connection with T-Mobile lst year. My Voom install was done yesterday. The installer didn't mention the phone...

Check your math "Actually", check your arithmetic. Adding one channel to four existing channels is a 25% increase. Adding one to five existing channels would be a 20% increase.

Whether you like CNN or I like CNN doesn't matter. What matters is that CNN is there if/when we want to watch it. AFAIC, CNN made its mark during Gulf War I, and has come way back from the FoxNews intro ratings fade. I watch both and I want both to be there when I want.

No such probs on my 3-week new 811 - 'cept for a one-time check-switch anomaly I reported in the 811 thread over at the other place - post #188

New Panny 53" 16:9 RPTV (one-day sale price)...$1,169 Less what the delivery guy paid for my old TV......$ -200 Net cost for a great HDTV....................................... $969 Pretty HDTV pictures for under a Grand.............Priceless :D

"I have not seen them yet. And yes they will only work with dish stuff." Rolltide, you obviously don't know what the H*** you are talking about. :rolleyes:

I just sub to everything so I don't have to depend on free previews to see movies - I get them all. HA! :D

Earl, did you get my PM?

Has anyone else noticed that the PQ on the 921 is very clear? Extremely clear.

This may be the first support forum in history for a product that doesn't exist. :shock: More of a crying place for all us disappointed 921 wannabees. A thumb-up to Scott for the "one-upsmanship", I think! :thumbsup:

Casey said he already did that - read the thread

AEP as a package represents a savings over ordering AT150 plus the 4 movie paks separately. CCAP, a payment option which is convenient for me, can be used with Visa or MC logoed debit cards. There is also an annual advance payment option which can save even more, but if you opt for annual...

:thats: funny! Thanks for a good chuckle. First, we should be thankful that Dish hasn't come out wth the "Model 666 - the Receiver from HELL" or the "Model 411 - Getting Information". Why are you complaining about model numbers being used by Dish instead of names I've had a 9-digit model...

Please! For the 10,000th time, it's "losing", not "loosing".

The 811 is not an entry-level product. It is a high-end HD s/a receiver which is currently being offered by Dish at a discounted price. I would recommend the 811 to anyone who wants a reasonable-cost entre' into HD, or a 2nd HD unit.

My 811 does not suck. - it does exactly what I bought for - it gives me pretty pictures, and it does that very well. It is Rad's unfair blanket criticism of the 811 that sucks. Rad, if you have a problem with your 811, send it back. If you have a problem with Dish, go somewhere else. But...

Sparky, if you think Charlie gives a schitt about our emails, think again. Based on last night's chat, he cares more about poker and bluffing his subs. He raised the HD stakes a few months ago by promising more HD, we called his hand and he folded. Clearly, E* is not the HD leader. Never was...

Welcome, Jeff. :wavey: Good to have you here! Right now, I'm watching today's Falcons/Carolina game replay on split-screen, with ESPN SD via 811/component on one side, and ESPN SD via 7200/S-video on the other. I would give the 811/component a very slight edge on PQ, alll other things being...
