Kwindrem, I appreciate your effort. I had already looked over the website and their PR and was frustrated and confused. As far as the other response... geeez! :(

This worked for me too. Spent maybe 10 minutes on the online chat. Had to reel-off a few numbers from the info screen, told them I wasn't receiving Scifi-HD (to avoid any channel confuson issues) and they said they would send a signal, and that in 5-15 minutes the channel should no longer be...

Its a discussion board. I think most everyone realizes if there is a Dish press release Scott or another admin will post it in a sticky. Otherwise, we are talking about what we hope, wish, think or dream of happening... while we are waiting to actually watch it. There are hundreds of...

I have this problem on a regular basis. I would call it repeatable. I could pass my 942 for a couple of seconds, and then unpause it and it would play normally with the 2 or 3 second delay. However, the 622 will not do that. For the local Cowboys games, the radio station's broadcast is...

Any news on Sci-Fi or USA HD yet? Any bones to throw us, Scott? You know we love news, insight, leaks, possibilities, speculation, and even outright gossip!!! :D

I had an owned 942 and a leased 811. Dish called and called and emailed and snail mailed to get us to upgrade. On Aug 10, I finally said yes. Got a 622, 211 and a new dish 1000, all at no cost. Both new receivers are leased. It did require an 18 month commitment, and I sent back the leased 811...

JPM, I am in Irving (Las Colinas) and I have lost signal much more than ever before during all the storms we have had in DFW the past month. In early May, the wind was so bad it actually moved my dish. Having said that, your receiver readings seem really low, compared to the ones I have on my...

See, my feeling is this. The whole reason I subscribe is to watch TV. I really don't care if its Mpeg-2 or Mpeg-4 or what sats they use, or any of that. I do want the DVR technology, so I am willing to pay extra for that. So for me, the bottom line is I subscribe to Dish so I can watch TV...

Well, I cleared the matrix but to no avail. Same problems. Actually, I am thinking it may be time to go to FiOS or DirecTV. I am feeling less than appreciated by Dish. I can live with not receiving the new Mpeg4 channels, I just want to turn on my TV and be able to watch the channels that I...

I have a 942 & 811. In the past few weeks, we have had nothing but problems! Many days the 942 won't pick up one or two of the sat signals, get the acquiring signal, switch check, etc. While I have unplugged the the sat feeds on both machines then done a check switch, I have not tried Mike's...

Unfortunately, I don't have any solutions for you, only a similar problem. I have also had major problems with the local NBC- HD here in Dallas on my 942. Only instead of pixelations or audio drops, it causes my machine to reboot. Sometimes several times an hour. This doesn't happen all the...

Just watched the recording on my 942. The pause happened, several seconds on nothing, and then several minutes of what appeared to be the show on Fast Forward. My guess was they were trying to catch up on time for the time lost during the pause. Just glad it was a "me only" issue!

I'm in Dallas, same problem with OTA. It sounds like the surround sound left & right is working, but the main front speaker with the voices is gone. The main speaker with voices resumed for me with 10 minutes left to go in Boston Legal, around 9:50 pm central. All is well again. I remember...

Just got off the phone with a CSR, and didn't get the answers I was expecting, so I decided to come to the one place I know I can get a correct answer! I currently have an 811 and a 942, with the old HD Pak plus the $5 Voom channels with Top 120 and 2 movie channels. My desire was to...

I have lost 119 on my 811 during several recent power outages. What I finally figured out was that I had to disconnect the coax satellite feed going in to ALL the receivers in my house. Unplugging the AC wouldn't fix the problem, but for some reason, once all the receivers were disconnected from...

Yes, actually, it would be. Since this thread was actually entitled "151 OLN Is On" and the past issue between OLN & Dish has been about whether or not hockey was going to be carried, I would know from your answer that the game is not being blacked out everywhere, including in the other team's...

Testy, testy... simply an example of a local team is playing and it's not being blacked out; which is the opposite of what is happening in Colorado. It's an effort at providing useful information that tells him OLN is not being blacked out in Dallas (the other team involved in the question)...

Walt on a rant? No!! I can't believe it!!! :D Here in Dallas, I recall a similar news story about a month ago... some birds (parakeets, I think) were nesting in electric towers. So the local electric company had to build them a new habitat near-by. I kept thinking "I'll be paying for that...

Which part is baseless? That I dropped over $900 for my 942 and second dish install last summer? That they are offering to give me a $200 credit (which is not the same as a $200 rebate) for something I own that I paid $700+ dollars for less than a year ago? That they are offering to replace it...

Does the Program Guide still populate after you cancel? Hoxxx, are your timers manual or do old timers continue to work?

Yes, BDG, their season is almost over. But the playoffs are just around the corner! I have checked my EPG on the 942 a number of times, going 9 days out, and the games are never listed. Yes, mdl23, I believe you are correct about channel 21 locally. However, I cannot tune in the channel 21...

I live in the Dallas area, and last year was able to see the Mavs on HDNet via Dish regularly. This year, they are never on that I can see; other things seem to be on HDNet in their place. On the local ABC affiliate, WFAA - Ch 8, their digital 2nd channel via OTA (08-02) has a looping...

The other night I tuned into Fox Sports Southwest to watch the Dallas Stars hockey game. Before the game started, they ran one of those graphics that said something to the effect of "Stars Hockey in HD." So that implied to me that FSNSW is broadcasting the games in HD. Does anyone know if this...

I bought my 942 last summer. They haven't called me, but if they do, I will turn down that offer. I have considered doing the upgrade from a leased 811 to a 622 for $299. That seems more reasonable. However, the 18 month commitment, and the lack of compelling content (to me) on the new HD...
