    I have a motorola 6412. I'm new to cable, I just got rid of my dish 921. Can I somehow setup a timer recording rather than a show based one? Heres why, I record the howard stern show. The box records the 11:00 & 11:30et shows and the 2am & 2:30 shows which are the same episodes. I've tried...

    Dish Add HBOHD/SHOWTIMEHD To HD Pack

    I would drop HBO and Showtime and get those two HD channels for a "reasonable" fee. That would save me some cash...As it would a LOT of other people. Meaning dish would be losing a LOT of cash.

    We DID IT!

    How.. You don't need to do anything. They will spool (download) it into the receivers when its finished. The when.....only Charlie's team knows for sure. Lord knows Charlie doesn't have a clue. You won't receive any notice from dishnetwork. Just keep your eyes open or check back here.

    FS Dish 508. mint condition I'm selling my 508 because I upgraded to a 921 (if you call that an upgrade :rolleyes: ). Its in mint condition, the remote control shows a little wear and tear. The battery cover doesn't stay on like it should. The card has a zero balance and has never been...

    WWE 24/7 on Dish?

    Right or wrong, more people would prefer the WWE channel over another news channel. The young male demographics is where the money is at. Charlie also needs the extra $ to keep up with Directv and cable. For Charlie its a win win situation, he gets extra $$ while making the prized 18-34 male...

    Distant Network Waivers

    I live in CT and receive both CT locals and LA locals. I'm hoping to keep the LA locals for the time difference and for the police chases on KTTV :clap . There have been times when I'd forget to watch a show on WVIT NBC 30, but still be able to flip over to KNBC a watch it there. I also had the...

    921 OTA Tuner Ranks #3 Behind 811 and 6000

    For me the 921 was a huge improvement with OTA over my old 6000. Its able to keep a lock on most of my local channels. I have a few complaints with the 921 but OTA isn't one of them.

    921 time shift issue

    I just got my 921 and its great!! I'm so familiar with my 508 that its taken me awhile to get the hang of it. One thing that drives me nuts however is the video will freeze for a second before playing after a skip ahead or a skip back. I called a CSR and according to her supervisor its a known...

    newbie question

    It does not come with a DVI-I cable. Of course the 921 has the DVI port. I went to Radio Shack to check one out and it costs $99.00 there. I didn't buy it. I'm going to begin to price them out online.

    connecticut OTA help

    I guess the problem is fixed. I just hooked up my new 921 and now I'm getting 3, 20, 30, 61 with no loss of signal at all. I don't get ABC (8) or WB (59) from New Haven at all. I guess because of how I pointed my antenna. The 921 blows away the 6000 in more ways than one. Thanks guys for info!!

    6000 questions

    I just got a hd tv last week so this is perfect timing. I'm running a 501, and a 508 now using 2 sw21s. Does anyone know if dishnetwork will upgrade my switch(es)? I live in CT so I doubt I'll need SUPERdish. If they install an SW34, does that switcher require a power invertor like the SW64?

    Charlie Chat Comments!

    A couple of question: 1. Is Superdish free w/a 6000 or only with a 811? 2. will 921 also have DVR fees? 3. If/When Hartford (or other locals) gets added, will I need superdish? Thanks
