    Scott: If you can, please ask what size and brand(s) of usb hard drives have been tested and proven to work. Just planning for the future and some of those external hard drives are pretty dang cheap now.

    Uplinked vs. Available

    I agree with the above answers, but I wonder how that works with HD locals. Take the Oklahoma city locals for example, because E already has agreements in place to re-transmit their SD programming will they have to come to a new agreement to show the Hd , or is this just a testing phase?

    Oklahoma City HD locals active today!!!!

    I have been informed by a subscriber in Mangum that he can pick up the OKC HD channels, that means at least Carter should be able to also Elk City. May be a Directv database error.

    SatelliteGuys.US DishNetwork Uplink Activity Report - Week Ending 04/14/2007

    Yup, here in SW Okla. there are a LOT of dish receivers. The OKC DMA covers a lot of rural area, no cable, very little OTA, so people get the Satellite Receiver of their choice. AND E beat D to the punch, they were supposed to have the OKC area lit up last month.

    Official 622 L4.01 Discussion Thread

    We got the error message for the first time this morning, freaked out the better half. I just "knew" it had something to do with the new software so had her just push select and let it do it's own re-boot. All is OK except we still have the old software. Here is my "theory": Maybe the...

    Would Buying The 622, Let You Work On Your Problem??? Without Voiding The Warranty??

    First I am no expert, just read here a lot. There ARE experts who will chime in. Try disconnecting your coax at the receiver, then do a check switch, then hook your coax back up followed with another check switch.

    Tired of Waiting: My Quest for Significantly Viewed

    5 Months ago Dish told me to "wait until Oct", This is the email I got Oct 13th when I requested significantly viewed channels again. I have even requested the Local TV stations to write ceo@echostar and tell them they would like to be carried. "We are aware of the channels that are...

    I'm picking up E* with my OTA

    I wonder just how much "power" the VIP622 puts out? Gonna experiment tonight with a small UHF antenna and see if I can broadcast a couple of rooms over, if it works I won't have to go in my crawlspace AGAIN to run another length of coax to the second TV. Wish me luck.:D
