    Upgrade to HD in RV - how to configure?

    I replaced the LNB on my winegard auto dish with a dish pro LNB and have no problems receiving the 110, 119 or 129 sat, one at a time. I use a 211 with HDMI to the LCD in front and coax for the selector box. HD to the bedroom via coax is then 4-3 with borders top and bottom, but very viewable...

    Flat Panel Mounts

    32" LCD for bedroom

    We have only had 2 power outages in the past year and when I rewired house in 07 ran a dedicated line to TV location in bedroom as well as living room. 95% of viewing will be HD from my VIP 211 via HDMI (still works) with OTA. 5% or less will be analog channel 60 from my VIP 622 in living room...

    32" LCD for bedroom

    Wife surprised me and came home from Walmart with a Sanyo 32" for $447.00. I worked with it for a few days and could never get the PQ good, not sharp and bad color so I returned it. Picked up a Samsung 32450 last week and am extremely happy with it. Best Buy had it for $599.00, a ton of...

    Anyone seen a 12VDC DTV Converter yet?

    I picked up a Venturer STB 7766G at Target for 39.00 and it uses a 9 volt power supply. I had a 12volt to 9volt adapter from Radio Shack and it works fine with my RV bedroom TV. Mike

    Software Version 6.16

    Got 616 overnight and my 622 seems to be the same. I did not have any problems with 615 other than a little lip sync on HD 5.1 channels feeding my Denon via optical. I'm not sure if its the 622 or my Samsung 52a650. Mike

    32" LCD for bedroom

    First let me thank all who answered my post. After a lot of shopping B&M and internet I've decided on Samsung, either the 32450 or the 32330. I can live with the stretch on SD from my 622 and we have a up converting DVD player in bedroom. The 32450 can be had for about $550 and 32330 around...

    32" LCD for bedroom

    Anyone out there have a suggestion for a 32" LCD for the bedroom. 720 should be fine as I'll feed it analog 4:3 via dish 622 TV2 out and OTA. Viewing distant is about 9' and it will be wall mounted. Replacing a 2 year old 20" CRT that both of us see just fine but we have 3 month new SAMSUNG...

    How do you shop for a display?

    I have them set up a good quality up converting DVD player with a DVD that I know well and feed it to the TV of choice, this is close to watching sat HD. Then turn down the settings to about 50% and view for a while. BB and CC will do this if they want you as a customer.

    question: Samsung plasma or Sony LCD?

    My Mits is a 2001 55" RPTV that seems like it will last forever. So far I replaced the 2 convergence ICs last year and it still has a great pic. I have been checking the new TVs for a while and have decided the 120 hz (LN55650) Sammy is so much better than the rest of the market its my #1. I...

    I know this sounds petty but...

    I just checked my IMAC 20" and 2 14" IBOOKs. All three show the same margin L3/8" and R1/4" Maybe if you shrink the Safari page to the left with the box below the cursors it would help. I really don't notice as I use the up & down arrows as well as L & R.

    Getting a Vip612

    The same statements as made for the 622 when it first came out, and look at it now. I've had mine 15 months and not one single problem so far, just give the 612 time and it will be fine. Look how the complaints have dropped down to just a few a week.

    Open Letter To Senator Boxer Regarding Dish Network & V-Chip Technology

    To the OP, Buy yourself a non-Dish/Direct OTA tuner and stop using your Dish/Direct receiver for OTA. This will provide your must have V-chip data.
