    NASA-TV HD Channel

    There is HD from Space Station also, not just Shuttles. Some cool Earth views in HD. Also a tour of the Station. One video in particular is pretty cool, the Shuttle does a 360 around the Station with Earth in the background. I guess you have to be a space nut or a NASA fan to appreciate it.

    942 Will It Get External Hard Drives?

    Thanks for the news guys, even if it was bad news. I have had a 622 since they came out and I'm using a Seagate 750GB external with it. I only held on to the 942, besides the fact I purchased it, because it had some HD shows that haven't been on again in a long time. I'd hate to lose them, or...

    942 Will It Get External Hard Drives?

    Are there plans by Dish to allow External Hard Drives for the 942? If it does happen, would I be able to copy saved recordings to the External Hard Drive, buy a new 622 or 722, and copy them back to the 622/722? Thanks in advance for any help.

    New VIP 699 Receiver Info

    I can't believe I got the scoop on this before Scott did. I have a relative that works for Dish and he let slip that Dish has a new receiver model VIP 699. I made him spill the beans about it and promised not to tell anyone. Of course the first thing I did was rush and post it all here for you...

    721 Software Update!

    I'm not finding any bugs now with my 721 after the 115 update. No more freezes or reboots. It is noticeably faster now with responses to remote buttons. It was sluggish the first day or two, but zips now. I've yet to find a bug. Looks like the update fixed all my problems. I'm not seeing the...

    721 Software Update!

    I pray it is true. My 721 rebooted 8 times yesterday, 4 times today, and has no picture and no guide for over 2 hours today. I almost called in for a replacement, but i am hanging on hoping the new Software fixes it. Fingers and toes are crossed. I'm giving it until Friday, but no later!!

    Remote Control Conflict Clarification

    Kevin, you solved the problem with your advice. I wasn't hitting the "record" button while the "System Info" screen was still up. So it wasn't saving the new address. Now everything works great. No problems. Thanks to all of you who helped!

    Remote Control Conflict Clarification

    I know this is an old subject, but I did several searches and couldn't find it. Does changing the Remote Address for the Satellite Receiver change just the IR, just the UHF, or Both?? I now have a 721 and a 6000 (both UHF) sitting next to each other and I am trying to get them to behave by...

    7100 Died, What Will replace It?

    My 7100 Dishplayer died today. Fortunately I have the $1.99 per month Warranty on all my receivers. They are sending a free replacement, and even waived the shipping. What will they be replacing it with, another 7100 or a 500 Series? Does anyone here know if they have refurbished 7100's left...
