    Does the receiver not operate at all if I tell them to turn off the dvr fee, or just the dvr functions? I don't really need the dvr functions anymore cause I'm using my own pvr card for this. It'd be nice not to pay that extra $5/month for that cheesy service.

    Dumb noob question about dish 301, I think? Is it IR?

    My dish 4900 (what I thought was a 301) doesn't have a record button. It is just the standard black dish remote. Is the record button part of the address change process or is it just a way to verify the change? thanks.

    Dumb noob question about dish 301, I think? Is it IR?

    I definitely get charged the fee and I *think* I have a 501, pretty sure actually. It is a dvr but I think it holds a lot more than 22 hours. Could I have a later version that requires a fee? I asked them to remove it once and they said they couldn't.

    Dumb noob question about dish 301, I think? Is it IR?

    I ordered my dish about 4 years ago and I remember when I ordered I got an upgraded reciever that had some extra outputs and a UHF remote. I think it was a 301, is that likely 4 years ago? Anyway, my question is, does the dish 301 reciever (if that's what I have) accept IR commands? I...
