Just switched to Direct TV from Dish. I wanted to save some money so I skipped the HD DVR. I got a old used H21-200 receiver on the install. Can I get get them to give me a newer receiver? Is the one I got as good as the newer HD receivers. I just like newer stuff.

I just got guide information for my local off the air stations. Does anyone know the story behind this. Did Dish change their policy? I thought guide data was only available if you subscribed to local's from Dish. I like it. It's going to be a lot easier to record now.

I wouldn't of bought a HD DVD player this soon if it wasn't for the price. I have HD from Dish and off the air, but the quality of the picture impresses me. The thing I didn't expect is the sound. The sound coming from my 5 channel Harmon/Kardon never sounded so good. I'm very happy with it.:D

I saw this on xpBargains with your Sears card you can get the Panasonic TH-50PX75U 50" Plasma for $1190. I'm real tempted but I don't have to have a new TV now. Maybe not. http://www.xpbargains.com/#96324

My 52" CRT RPTV has a pretty good HD picture in a darkened room. I was thinking about buying a new 50" 720 plasma or 50" Sony SXRD Rear Projection. Will spending about $2000 including a TV stand get me a lot better picture or should I wait untill my CRT RPTV dies?

I recently got a 32" Sharp Aquos LC-32D41. After turning down the factory over bright settings I got the picture pretty good. One setting the Sharp has is Black expansion. I'm not sure if I like it better with it on or off. If anyone has a Sharp with this setting or can comment I would like to...

I bought a new Motorola L6 cell phone. Does anybody know it I can safely use a car charger from my Holux bluetooth GPS receiver on it. They both have a mini USB input. The AC charger on the cell phone outputs 5 volts at 550 ma but the car charger for the GPS receiver outputs 5 volts at 1.0 A. I...

I had a 622 installed on June 10 with the HD Silver package. I sent my rebate form in with my first statement, must be 2 months ago. I have yet to receive the HD rebate or the bonus rebate. I called a CSR and all they say is we don't have it yet. I'm not happy about it. I think I should of got...

I see more and more 1080p TV's out now. Are programs being sent out by Dish network, Direct TV or off air good enough to see the improvement a 1080p set offers? It looks to me that there are going to be more 1080p sets coming out in the near future.

I know some TVs have a built in soft light behind the TV. Has anyone added a light behind their TV? What color light and what size bulb did you use. I read once about this somewhere it's supposed to make viewing easier on the eyes. I have a 52" RPTV.

I've had my 622 for a couple weeks now. I find the off the air HD tuner not quite as good as my Zenith HD-Sat520 or my old Voom receiver. Both receivers will lock on one distant station, where as the 622 just breaks up. I'm still glad I switched from Direct TV, but the grass is not all green here.

Whats a good buy it now price for a Zenith HD-SAT520? I've got mine on Ebay for $125 is that to high?

I told them I was leaving for more HD. They told me Voom channels are not HD, but enhanced channels. Direct TV only has "true HD". There new HD DVR will be out the end of this summer and they are going to have 150 HD channels. I said call me when it happens. I will say, I think Speed,Travel and...

I just missed out on the $199 lease and $20 a month credit for 10 months. I just had my install this Saturday but I signed up about three weeks ago for the $299 lease and $10 a month credit for 10 months. I called Dish but they said I couldn't get the new deal even though my install was after...

I just got my 622 installed this Saturday. I don't have any guide info for my off air HD channels. Should I have them? I had info with DirectTV.

How long do you wait for the installer to show up? Dish Network said somewhere between 12 and 5 it's getting around to 6 o'clock now. Not even a phone call. I would think if you got "good" service someone would call and let you know if you're on the schedule or not. I wany my 622 hooked up...

I'm switching back to Dish on June 3, can't wait. Will the installer put up two dishes or one to get Voom HD channels too? Locals are not available in my area 01035. Will the 622 receiver pick up off air HD as good as my Zenith HD-SAT520. I wished the 622 looked like high end audio equipment...

What aspect settings does the 622 have when watching SD channels on a widescreen TV. Does it just something better than just wide? I'm going back to Dish from Direct with a 622. My old 811 didn't have a good stretch setting.

I haven't had a DVR since I left Dish to go to Voom. I now have Direct TV. I have about 5 monthes left on my commitment with my HD receiver. I can get non HD DVR free with a two year commitment. I miss having a DVR, but is Direct TV the best place for HD in 5 months? Two years is a long time. I...

Does anyone know when Direct switches to mpeg 4 if there are going be new LG brand receivers or only Direct brand receivers available ?

When viewing SD on a wide screen TV what stretch modes does the 811 receiver let you pick from. Did Dish add something better than just wide?

I just purchased a new zenith remote from www.newremotecontrol.com for $44.95 including shipping. I would highly recommend them for anyone who wants an original remote for their refurbished receiver, that didn't get one. I got it in less than a week.

Just check my guide, finally have info for all ATO stations in Springfield MA area. Voom can't go away now. :) :)

I've talked to different Csr's about adding two channels to my program guide. Both gave different reasons why not. Why can't they just click a button on the mouse to fix it?

Except for no OTA scanning, soon to come I'm going to cancel Dish. Should I keep my 811 in case Voom fails or sell it?
