    Hopper/wireless?

    Ok, so it's been quite a long time since I posted here. In fact, this is my first time using the mobile version of the site. Kudos guys, it works awesome! Here's where I'm hoping you can help me... I don't know what switches or equipment are feeding my current setup, but I have one 722k (1st...

    Need help reducing STB count by 1...

    Greetings, it's been awhile since I last posted and my set-up has changed significantly since the one listed in my signature. I'm also fairly out of touch with current equipment and hoping someone can point me in the right direction on this... I'd like to remove a 211k from my current...

    Belkin AVR with battery back-up, dead battery?

    I've got a Belkin AP30800-10 AVR surge suppressor/battery back-up that hasn't been plugged in for about 2 years... I finally moved into my new house and I can't get the darn thing to fire up. I left it plugged in for about 5 hours and it didn't even register a blip... I'm guessing that the...

    Retailer/Installer Help Needed

    I need a retailer/installer who's willing to help me in the 17022 zip (Elizabethtown) of Pennsylvania. Anyone out there conveniently located in my area? I'd like a custom install for a 4 room/4 tuner all-HD set-up. I may need to do some cable pulls (1 or 2) to a couple of the rooms and I'd also...

    Coming back to Dish after 2 years

    I haven't had an active account with E* in about 2 years and am planning on coming back. I would appreciate some feedback from the experts as I "hook up" again! I'm moving to zip code 17022 (Elizabethtown, PA) and was told that I would be using Western Arc sats at 110, 119 and 129 (I thought...

    Signal loss on 61.5?

    My parents are having some issues with 61.5 in their set-up... I'm hoping a SatGuy may come to the rescue! They have a D500 (110/119) and D300 (61.5) with DPP Twin and DP Dual, respectively, running to a 622 and 211. Modulated output from the 622 feeds two additional SDTV's. They're located in...

    Activation - 2 hrs and counting...

    I'm RA'ing my 622 (second one) because of a bad HDMI port. I've been trying to get the new one authorized/activated for 2 hours now... The web site activation doesn't work. It refers me to a phone number to call, as there are apparently no receivers on my account in need of activation. Called...

    Extending 622 TV1 via HDMI

    I'm thinking about using this HDMI splitter to send TV1 from my 622 to a secondary display. The secondary display has a DVI input so, I'll also be running L/R/C audio channels from my receiver's "Zone B" outputs. The total run is about 35'. I'll be using the 6.3 IR/UHF Pro remote. Questions: 1)...

    VGA vs. DVI out to HDTV?

    I've been surfing the information wave in various forums and in preparation of hooking up my new notebook (on Dec. 25) to an HDTV for some BD/HD DVD goodness. In the process of researching potential issues, I've come across quite a few posts/people who believe VGA is an inferior connection...

    Considering a Mac questions...

    Although my second computer was an Apple IIGs (first was a RS TRS80) I've been using PC's for the past 15 years or so. Recently, I've been considering a PowerBook Pro as my next home computer purchase. I have a few assumptions that I'm basing my decision on and I'm hoping some forum folks can...

    Thinking about coming back...

    I was with D* about 6 or 7 years ago. Since then I've been an E* sub and have been happy with a 622 (HD/DVR), 211 (HD), and HD/AEP/Locals. I'm not a service provider jumper but, recent developments have caused me to take a closer look at returning to D* (no, it's not just the HD race prompting...

    Temporarily suspending account

    I'm going to be moving (really truly moving) within the next couple of months so, I'd like to suspend my account until I've got the finances under control and know where I'm at. Can anyone provide some input on the process? From what I've read, I can suspend service for a maximum of 6 months...

    625 tech problem or picture tube bound for the junk pile?

    I was hanging out with a friend last night and he has an interesting problem with his set-up... Since he recently signed up with E* and had a 625 installed, he was under the impression that his issue might be related to the STB or installation. When I took a look, it seemed more like a problem...

    Looking for low budget G extension idea

    I recently got my parents to take their network wireless (G via Linksys WRT54GS). While I sold them on the benefits of being "mobile," I of course was secretly and selfishly thinking about connecting to their network while visiting and without being tethered to a hard line. I figured we could...

    Receiver Lease Fees

    So I'm looking at my statement and am thinking... "Man, I wish this bill was less." I scan the details and see the two receiver fees I pay, $6 each for a 622 and a 211, and I start thinking... "Hmmm, I used to pay only one lease fee when I had a 311 <sigh>." Here's my question, has anyone...

    Anyone using Xport?

    Because it was so easy to rip my CD collection onto the 360, I did. But, I'd like to use the Xport to transfer the files onto my PC and I don't read/speak hexidecimal... Looking at the 360's HDD contents, I think I know which files I want to transfer but, I'm hoping someone here has done this...

    Algolith Flea/Mosquito?

    I'm thinking about adding an Algolith Flea into my set-up. I'm particularly interested in improving SD PQ with MNR and BAR, and am wondering if anyone has successfully used the Flea with a Vip622 over YPrPb?

    OTA Smart Antenna & 622 ATSC/8VSB

    I'm thinking about upgrading my indoor antenna, a little RS 15-1870, to a relatively unobtrusive outdoor model, and I'm looking at this Sylvania DT-5000 at Sam's Club to possibly do the job. I live in an apartment complex so, I need something that is not going to ruffle the complex management...

    24 month committment/DHPP credit?

    I recently spoke with a CSR regarding my account and was told that because I have a 24 month committment (total time after a few DIU upgrades) that I will continue to receive a $5.99 credit towards DHPP throughout that committment, essentially paying nothing for DHPP. Does this sound correct...

    Harmony 676 & Favorites?

    I tried posting this in the Accessories Forum but, too little traffic there... My 676 no longer downloads the "Favorite Channels" I had selected during initial set-up. When I used the web interface, I couldn't even find the favorite channels feature... Did Harmony do away with this feature...

    Harmony 676 & Favorites?

    My 676 no longer appears to download the "Favorite Channels" I had selected during initial set-up. When I used the web interface, I couldn't even find the favorite channels feature... Did Harmony do away with this feature altogether? :confused:

    Adding a ViP211 to DPP set-up

    I've got 2 D500's at 110, 119 and 61.5 w/ a DP Dual and DPP Twin feeding a 311 and 622 on two coax runs (separator on the 622). I'm replacing the 311 with a 211 and just wanted to double check if I needed to add any switches so that the 211 can see all sats for HD? Check switch indicates the 311...

    622 recording: pixelating, channel hopping mess...

    I recently, and for the first time, had a very odd recording experience on my 622. It started out as a recording of "Dr. Who," on 122 (SciFi), and ended up recording the HD Demo on 9443... :mad: Anyone else have one of these fun experiences?
