    New Hopper 3 install - HDMI issues

    Just moved to a new house, so did a Dish move with DIRT's help (Thanks Speedy!). Matt from DIRT set it all up, the Dish tech did a great job on the install, including going into the crawl space & fishing wires up to my opening in the drywall. Managed to place the Hopper 3 in the living room &...

    Tivo gets Patent Settlement from Motorola/Cisco

    Don't know if this is old news. Looks like Motorola & Cisco are going to pay some big bucks to avoid a patent trial. Dish (Echostar) makes the 3rd paragraph. http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/06/motorola-and-cisco-pay-tivo-490m-to-dodge-east-texas-patent-trial/

    Dead HN7000S - 2+ Week Wait for new

    Long story short, 2 years of Hughsnet, HN7000S wouldn't come back on after a power outage. Have a replacement "on the way" - 5 to 7 days. Got email from Hughesnet - modem backordered - appears will be at least 2 weeks before I can get it. Question - is this normal? Cannot believe they...

    Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hr on E*

    Very Cool! Have always wanted to listen to this show - but have had Sirius, not XM. Now that the merge has occurred, the show is on Sirius/XM, but I hadn't been able to catch it while in the car. Once I saw that it was not a specific "talk" channel, but part of one of the music channels...

    Elevation Angle for Line-of-Sight

    What I think is a quick question - or point me to the right thread or web site. If I'm at my Dish location, what is the approx. Elevation Angle to see the 110 and 119 Sats? I'm in VA zip 22485. Long story short - started getting Sat dropouts often. Point Dish indicates that 110 is AOK...

    It's 7/12 - Do we finally get EPG Info on NG-HD?

    So...any guesses (or has someone checked it yet)? With the EPG saying: "Free Preview Ending 7/12" for the last month - will we finally be able to see what is on National Geographic HD in the Program Guide starting today? :rolleyes:

    622 Cooling - USB fan on Flexible Stalk

    Seem to have found a 622 cooling solution that works for me - thought it might help others in the same situation. My 622 is in an enclosed cabinet with glass doors - pretty much had to keep the door open during use to keep the unit running OK (...wife wouldn't let me just remove the door :) )...

    Very strange 622 delivery

    Are others out there getting their 622's from a "normal" UPS delivery or something similar?? Or was it delivered by an unidentified guy in a car...... Thought I heard a knock at the front door yesterday afternoon. As I was headed towards the door, saw a guy walking thru the yard away from...

    Greetings - New Member Today

    Just wanted to say hello. Signed up as a member this morning, but I've been lurking on the board for quite a while. Figured I should sign up so I can at least say thanks for all the help. I've been with Dish Network since 2001 (install was actually 9/11/2001!). Had a 301 & 501 - apparently...
