Hi all, Just activated my H24 (owned) tonight and it wont stay on any channel for long. :mad: Front DTV light starts blinking by itself then channels change, goes to menu, back to guide, etc. Remote is set to IR, THX for possible solutions! Bill

Greetings fellow Sat heads! My replacement 622 arrived today. Appears new like I demanded from Dish as L4.01 crippled my 622 I bought 1 year ago with no contract. Kudos to Dish Tech. support, the tech went out of his way to help me and not try to get me off the phone! :) I was getting...

Hello, I'm confused on how to connect other tv to my 622. I have a Dish 4700 in bedroom and had a 811 which I replaced with the 622 I am using now. I have a Dish 500 setup (2 dishes) getting 110, 119, and 61.5 birds. House is wired for sat in all rooms. Both the 4700 and the 622 are...

With all the talk about bad hdmi outputs on the 622 I was wondering if there was a way to check mine since my HDTV does not have HDMI. My 622 is currently hooked up with component cables . Want to make sure hdmi jack is good so if and when I get a new HDTV with hdmi I will be good to go. My...

Hi, Just got my 622 and was wondering if it can record in DD yet when recording DD content. Read somewhere that it might be able to sometime soon! :) Still haven't figured out the DVR yet as this is my 1st DVR receiver ever. THX!

Hi All, I have a 811 and have been a long time Dish customer. With Mpeg4 out I have been tempted to switch to DTV as a new customer and get a Mpeg4 DVR with HDTV if possible. Dish will not work any deals with me but DTV seems to want my new customer business. My question is, is now a good...

Hi, I want to have Dish installed for my Dad in another town while I pick up the tab. I want him to be a new customer to get the specials, is this possible? He has never had Dish, only me for the past 7+ years. How should I go about this? Thx for all suggestions! :)

148 to 61.5 question. Voom related Hello all, The installers are coming over this tuesday for my "free" second dish install so I can get my one local off the 148 sat. I really want it for Voom off the 61.5 sat. How do I go about letting the installer know I want it pointed at 61.5 and not...

Hi all, I have a 811 with the HD pack, how do I go about getting Voom added? I just found out that Dish carried it 2 days ago. Thx! :)

Sorry for the dumb question but how do you tell when your 811 was made? Iv'e checked the box and the receiver and can't find any mark. I got mine 2 weeks ago. The local dealer I got it at always seems to have a steady supply coming in and with all these "shortages" dish claims it has if mine is...

I am on the list like many of your are. When I called Dish last week about the $149.00 price they told me it was not guaranteed. WTF! They said the price could go up and it depends on when your 811 comes in. Does anyone have a different story on how to approach this? I have a 811 but it cost me...

Someone posted pictures of his 921 taken apart a few days ago. Has anyone done this to a 811 or know of a link to see under the hood of this machine. I like seeing this kind of stuff taken apart to see what it takes to make it tick! Thanks! :cool:

Hi, I need a recommended OTA HD antenna for my Dish 811 and was wondering what you experts in the DFW area use. Keep in mind I live just north of the Colony and next to Frisco and I am about 40 miles north of downtown Dallas. I was looking at the Terk 55 but am open to suggestions! Thanks! :cool:

Hi, I just got my 811 today and installed it. Everything looks great so far though the component outs. My 47" Panny WS HDTV does 1080i but when I set the 811 on 1080i everything looks really bad. Too much red, convergence is all messed up but when I set the 811 on 480p it seems to look great. Am...
