    HD locals for Baltimore

    I live in DMA 41, Cumberland County Pa, and had to "move" to Franklin county to get the Washington DC locals in HD. I see now the Baltimore locals are set to come on line in 2008. My question is, if and when they turn those Baltimore locals on will the coverage area include my location or will I...

    I would like to add a 311 receiver to my setup. Background info: originally I had an 811 HD receiver and a 311 in two different rooms. I then upgraded to a 622 and removed the 311 with the thinking I would use the dual tuner option of the 622 to reach the room where I had the 311...

    Adding HD receiver

    Thanks would it be the same if i wanted to add another 622? Not sure which way to go since the HD recording time is not really that long so I am thinking about adding a second DVR.

    Sick of Dial up....sat internet?

    I would like to be able to connect to my office network (VPN right?) as well as just have basic connection at home. Are you saying both HN and WB will dissappoint me when I try to connect to my office no matter how it is setup cause that would be a major bummer.

    Question about HD or HD lite on Dish

    Thank you P Smith. I have seen that table before but unfortunately for me I know just enough to be dangerous and am not sure I am deciphering it properly. I am using a 61.5 dish for HD content, am I correct in thinking the Mbps column tells me how close to HD the content is? The higher the...

    Question about HD or HD lite on Dish

    HD lite sure gets responses, mostly angry or slightly angry. My original question was regarding if any programming on Dish is not HD lite. All the responses were talking about giving me information about what HD lite was, resolution and bandwidth etc. Did not see any information on what...

    "Moving" in Pennsylvania

    Thanks Mike, I will give it shot I thot they would be in the low 6000's from looking at other info. When you say call them back, I assume you mean talk to them like I just installed this and why aren't I getting these channels right, and not discuss moving or anything about that.

    "Moving" in Pennsylvania

    Call Dish and say what? "Hey I was trying to get you to turn on the Local HDs for me by telling you I moved but you didn't do it yet." Don't know what to do from here. It should happen right away after they change the address, right?

In other words...
