With the PBSHD/Direct announcement serving as a catalyst - and as with many others, I think: If Dish does not add "real programming" (NOT Voom and more PPV or sports), then I'm out of here and over to Direct as of January. I've been with Dish for 6 years, and Dish's promises far outweigh its...

This WAS my problem too. Out here on the Olympic Perninsula, we have the same problems. The Dish guy moved one dish (I have two) to clear trees and bushes that the wind blew intermitently across their line of sight paths to 61.5. Now, everything's fine.

I am ready to receive.

This is probably not new news, buy...I am paying $10.00 a month ($5.00 for each of two receivers) for a Programming Access Fee. The person at Dish said that this was because I did NOT have a telephone line attached to my set "to make downloading easier." I guess the logic is that I am being...

What really strikes me as strange is that PBS-HD (a product of the only subscriber/public supported national network that solicits direct funding from viewers) is not available on Dish. I guess we should only support it "partially," nes pas? Whereas, I can get it on my local cable company.

I picked up an old 6' vhs/uhf antenna (the one with the "yagi" vee in front) at a garage sale for $5.00. I put it on a pole, wired it up and it delivers GREAT HD from Victoria, Canada...seventeen miles away. You don't need anything more sophisticated; the "HD" is in the signal, not the antenna.l

Same thing happened to me in WA state. "Currupted hard drive" message appeared. I hard-started and ONLY NCIS was damaged, it seems. The others appear to be okay. Dish Service replied with a "we are the leader in satellite technology" spiel. Wow! Their training sessiona must take place in...

Yup, I had 6 HOURS recorded the other a.m., when I was supposed to have an hour program recorded. Speaking of that, I punched in one program (CBSHD - CSI, I believe) and ended up with Jay Leno.

For those of us who are new...or are just out of the loop: Why is there no PBS-HD on Dish (at least in my area on the far western tip of the Olympic Peninsula). I DO qualify for "locals," by the way. The area CABLE systems DO carry PBS-HD. Seattle is 100 miles away, over the mountain,.s as...

HDMI prob. fixed After four months of telephone calls in which I complained about the sudden loss of HDMI output, DISH relented and sent a replacement unit. HDMI output now works great! Count me among those who argue that there is NO software problem; it's bad unit fabrication.

What, me worry? It's like Ford suing Maserati because Henry invented the production line. Moral: Don't even attempt to improve upon an obvious concept (recording electronic impulses) by building better machines. If you go, the Luddites will getcha!

Has anyone had the HDMI output go dead while all others remain active?

VIP622 HDMI died Has anyone had the HDMI output go dead while all others remain active?

I had the same problem the night before last. (West Coast, Seattle area). CSI "froze" and would only move forward in bursts. The it stopped completely. I had recorded it while recording another program - which DID record okay. I think Dish is putsing around with their software. Of Course, Dish...

Seattle locals NBC, ABC, CBS came on at 64** yesterday. My 622 can receive them, but the 922 cannot. (MPEG difference?)

HD-less in Seattle Hey, Thanks for the quick reply. Let's hope so, my 65" Sony isa desperate for more programming.

Does anyone have a guess as to when the Seattle nets will, be on Dish? Oh, does anyone else notice that SCIENCE channel on Dish has a really great (SD?) image?
