I am thinking about re-configuring my current package of America's top 200 to Dish America Package and adding in HBO premium. When I look at my profile page online, the HD addon is checked on all packages except Dish America. I was wondering what that HD addon actually is and if I am missing...

Dirt Memebr contact for upgrade and questions I am interested in upgrading my current Hopper to a hopper with sling. Why would someone upgrade to HWS vs. just getting a sling adapter? Also, can DVR content be transferred from current hopper to new one? Thanks

Hi- I am a ten plus year subscriber with no lates and auto pay. I tried to do an upgrade over the phone this am and the csr said I had to be in front of my receivers before he can process, and since I am at my office, I won't be able to upgrade :(. Not sure why there is this requirement since...

I have a 1000+ dish setup that supposed to receive 4 satellights 110, 118, 119, and 129. I have recently been having trouble with reboots with my 622 VIP and decided to check the settings and performed a check dish. I have come to find out that I am not receiving ny signals from 118. Is this...

Thanks for the info...Just got back from Lowes and sure enough, when I asked for a chain link post, they had what I was looking for. Can't ask the for a 1 and 5/8 in diameter metal pole, because they don't have it. But ask for a 1 and 5/8 in diameter "Chain Link Fence Post", they sure know where...

Live in a condo and I want to redo my dish antenna install to clean the look up on the balcony. Don't worry, this is because I want to, not because the condo association is asking me to do. My question is what diameter pole do I need to get to put the dish on. I have the 1000+ so I can pick...

Viatalk with a prefix added to the phone setup of "*99#" works here!

Thanks for the info...I'll call again next week.

Does anyone have information on how to go about getting a Dish 1000 upgraded to a Dish 1000+ and the costs (hopefully nothing) so that I can be able to recieve the upcoming HD Locals in Charlotte, NC? I called customer service and they had no information (as I expected).

Now this statement you made is silly. Think about what you just stated. If a DVD is available for sale (legally) in a store located 500 miles away from where I live, you are implying that I have no right to purchase it because I do not live there. My point, simply, is that once content has...

I would think that CBS, or any national network for this matter, wouldn't object to where a consumer picked up their content. ratings is what it's all about. Ok...if they don't own it, then there is no copyright issue with the local station then... To me, it is simple...or basic as you...

I am not advocating theft of copyright material...I am just advocating access to it paying any and all fees, royalties, etc...Let that be my choice and most importantly my right as a consumer...

It's about choice and the freedom to choose! If I live in one city, but would like to view programming from accross the country, I should have the right to do it because the technology is here to do it. By not letting me choose, I feel it is now a restraint of trade or monopolistic behavior...

Thanks all for the feedback...and the planter suggestion is great...never thought of that!

I will be closing on a new condo in Dec. As expected, condo rules forbid penetrations into the building. I do have a southwest exposure from my balcony so I do not expect a LOS problem. Here are my questions: 1) I read some postings about a "flat" cable option to go through a window or door...

Location: Charlotte, NC I placed my upgrade order for the VIP 622 on Feb 1st after several attempts and CSR's. At first, they said I did not need the dish 1000, I kept asking how would I receive the additional HD programming without?. Well, after the third call in, it appears that my account...

I have heard and read about Dish offering an OTA and install for $49 when you upgrade to the vip receiver in a market that does not have HD LIL's being broadcast. I have an install date for next Saturday that includes a vip622 and a dish 1000. I asked about the OTA when I first placed my order...

modifying my dial plan can anyone show me an actual example of how to take a dial plan and have the *99 entered in the string to act as a prefix? TIA

I called Dish to upgrade 811 to VIP622. Called in 3 times each time asking for the $50 OTA antenna since my locals in HD are not currently being carried. All three times the response back was that I could order through a local retailer and that the price was up to them. Has anyone else tried to...

Caller ID on 921 now works For what its worth, I have not been able to get the caller id to work on my 921 since I purchased my unit over a year go. I just ported my pots line over to a voip provider and last weekend wired all my phone jacks in the house to use the voip line. To my...

It looks like I will be doing at least 1 receiver upgrade on or after Feb 1 to the hd dvr 622. I currently have a dish 500 for the 110 and 119 to pick up all my locals and at120 package. In order to take advantage of the additional hd channels, I understand that I will need to pick up 129 in...
