    D*'s Charges us now...then U wait 1 month for equip and Service?

    I use to be with E* and they do the same thing. I purchased the 622 reciever the day it came out. I was charged on that day. Then had to wait weeks and when my install time came, I was called and informed the unit was on back order and they did not have a date when it would be ready. So they...

    HD Local Pixelation Issues

    I tried as well to watch the Bama game from CBS out of Birmingham and it looked like snow vision. But I have never been happy with CBS from the Birmingham market.

    DirecpTV pixilation problem

    It would also hold together just fine at a higher frame rate. 30 frames a second is not enough for fast moving images to keep up with. Slow moving object on my 65" screen look amazingly good. Something moves fast across my screen and its pretty bad. Also someone earlier asked why we have...

    New D* Customer

    Good luck with the picture quality. If you have a 52" high quality HDTV or smaller you should be fine. If larger I would recommed not signed a dang thing till you actually see local SD channels and HD channels both and make sure you are happy. Once you sign, your stuck with it.

    Picture Quality

    Jam, I am with you. I just switch to D* from E*. E* (to me) had the far better picture quality on both HD and SD channels. And I have noticed too that some days picture quality on D* comes and goes.

    H20 HDMI Cable Hookup.. What cable is best?

    I also purchsed an HDMI cable from monoprice and it was awsome. I have always purchased Monster brand and paid out the you know what for it. Never again. Monoprice usually offers two version of their HDMI cables. I chose the more expensive one of the two but it was still under $20

    H20 Issue?

    So it has nothing to do with the H20? And isn't E* doing the same thing? If so, why is it more noticeable with D*?

    H20 Issue?

    I recently switched from E* to D*. I have the H20 receiver. I'm no expert, but I beleive my HD channels aren't as clear as they were with E*. When the image is still such as zoomed on an actor who is still, everything looks great. But on any fast moving images such as sports the image is...

    I need expertise

    D* also does not offer a multi-room two TV DVR like E* does. Nor do they have plans to offer one in the future.

    Mpeg4 Dvr

    I talked with someone at D* yesteray and they said they had a big meeting on HD items recently and were hoping to have the unit available in April as of now, but she said not to hold her to that, but that was what they were shooting for.

    The guys that installed my system this week wanted to put the OTA on a seperate pole. It was not the type that snapped onto the rim of the dish. It might be different for you. I told the installer not to do that part and to take it off the work order. I am going to figure out someting else...

    anybody itchy to switch to E*??

    hmm I just went from E* to D*. I had both for a day where I could compare channels and on the same TV with the same cables, I could not see a difference. E* is not true HD either. IN my opinion, D* is going about things the right way as far as converting to Mpeg4. Think if D* had put up...

    Distant Locals HD

    Tom, I had a similar problem. I was told when I placed my order for the 622 that I could get HD locals out of NY. They even sent off waivers. The waivers came back approved but then was told it would only be for the SD channels. I got a call from the executive office at E* and was told they...

    TNT-HD now live on Directv !!!!

    When I had E*, TNT HD was one of my favorite HD channels. I don't like NBA, but seeing how good it looks made me want to watch and get me interested in the game. Nascar and the PGA events were great to. So I love TNT HD. Have to see how it looks on D*.

    FREE ITVN / XTV Receiver

    I got my box but it was Dead on Arival. They are having me ship it back, but won't ship a repacement till they get this one back. So I will have to wait another week or two for that process. I think that is a very poor policy. At first they even wanted me to pay shipping back to them on the...

    Buy now or lease later?

    I also think there will be a big uproar if they do away with mirror fee for leased unites and not purchased units.

    Buy now or lease later?

    I just signed up with D* I chose to buy. The deal I got gave me the H20 and new 5lnb dish for free after rebate. I purchased 2 additional R15 DVRs. Only $99 each. The big IF is the details of the lease. How much is the lease going to be a month. I think one of the advantages of a lease...

    New Service in Birmingham, AL?

    I currently am getting all 4 major network channels from NY in HD. ABC and CBS allowed those waivers to go though. So I don't see why that would change any when Birmingham locals go live.
