    Need help with existing Eastern Arc installation

    I have had the Eastern Arc since it originally became available. My installer only ran two RG6 cables from the 1000.4 dish. One is connected to a 722K and the other to a 612. I would like to add another dish HD receiver to my system. Is it better to run a third RG6 cable or connect one or both...

    What is the best HD option for me?

    I was once a dish network customer. Since then my ex-wife has taken over my account and my name appears to have vanished from their records. My dilemma is which satellite service should I use.

    Guest suggestion for next Tech Chat

    I read in a previous post that there are Eldon representatives in Denver working on 921 related problems. What an opportunity for Dish to really come clean on the 921, and its software development problems, by having the Eldon representatives on the chat. Even if they are no longer in Denver...
