Long story short, my Vip211 died day before yesterday. Today a technician replaced it with another receiver. I knew I would have to reprogram my favorites and recreate my list of DVR timers for the external HD. To my total amazement, when I checked my search history everything I had in my...

A terrible hail storm 2 weeks ago just pummeled my 1000.2 dish. Shattered 2 LNBs and split the arm. I called dishnetwork and agreed to pay $95 to have the dish replaced. And my insurance company agreed to reimburse me that amount. Well today I am having the roof replaced because of the...

I am ready to sign a contract on a new home and the only hesitation I have is LOS for Dish. The house is in a low area and there are some trees to the south. I have a VIP211 with HD-Absolute but I would add my locals if I move here. This picture was taken from the West side looking directly...

Mapdown channel 208, CNBC-HD+ It's been offline all morning now. Just a black screen with no sound or error message. I contacted Dish and they know about it and are working on it. LOL, and the stock futures are WAY WAY down this morning. :eek: What timing.:rolleyes:

Vip211 receiver. Updates enabled at 4am. I have problems using the guide because I suddenly get the "Program Guide is Outdated" message and then I am forced to stop everything and download the guide again. Happened yesterday and again just now, 7 hours after the automatic update. Can't this...

Ever since a software upgrade in Feb I haven't been able to watch one of my local channels OTA because of constant signal loss and breakups. I knew it was software related because it worked perfectly before the upgrade AND because I read about the other people here at this forum that had the...

Hopefully someone here who keeps up with these things can tell me the tentative launch date for the new satellite that is to provide a lot of new HD bandwidth.

OK, so I am watching MSNBC and during the commercial break they show a couple of national commercials followed by a local commercial for a small furniture store right down the street from me in Moore OK. That gets me thinking, how do they do that? I mean show a commercial customized for each...

OK, so I have a fairly new 211 with L345 firmware and for the life of me I can't make the search function work. When I search if I have a lot of results I can only see 5 of them. Example: Search-category->Movies. I get 500 results but I can only view 5 of them. Page Down doesn't do...

I can see in the channel listing that arrived yesterday with my monthly bill that the Pentagon channel is available to me with the package I subscribe to ( AT250 + HD ) but the small print indicates that a 2nd dish is required. Can anyone tell me how big the second dish is? Can it be mounted...

I have been with Dish for 3 months now and I have never seen any events or any kind of programming on this channel. Does/has it ever had any programming on it?

OK, so my Vip211 downloaded the 3.41 software update and now I notice one thing that is different. I have my preferences set to 1080i and of course it scales 480i to 1080i automatically and I thought it used to do the same for 720p but now I notice that whenever I switch to a channel (either...

OK, I must be missing something but don't know what it is with my H20. I want to find all football games televised today. I created a find that searches for the keyword FOOTBALL in all sports events, doesn't work. It finds football previews and nfl preseason but no college football games...

Hopefully I am posting this in the right place. I usually spend all my time in the D* forum but I was thinking of switching to E* and then I read yesterday about the lawsuit ruling that requires E* to disable Tivo functionality in the DVRs immediately and pay 96 million bucks in damages. So...

Is D* ever going to issue another firmware update to fix the multitude of problems with the H20-600 ( various reboots, numbers and letters chopped off at the top, findby that doesn't work consistently )? The last update was more than 3 months ago and this unit STILL has major problems in...

Just a reminder that this is free HBO and MAX weekend.

Does anyone know how I can determine which transponders I should be receiving from and what the signal strength should be? For example, on sat 110 I show 3 transponders with signal strengths of 42, 51, 44 It would be nice to know what transponders are active for my receiver and dish and also...

Has anyone heard what D* plans to replace PBS you ( ch 377 ) with when it ceases on Tuesday? Please tell me it is not another shopping channel.:hungry:

I have read that a lot of people who are retired and live extensively on the road setup and align their D* dish whenever they park at a new location. I have never even aligned even the 3 lnb dish and I am wondering how they are supposed to align the new 5 lnb dish at all. I am thinking of...

So D* came up with their own teenybopper version of American Bandstand with 2 channel stereo and pawned it off as our new HD channel and all but my question is this.... They have one hour of new programming a week and they are going to just run that one hour in a loop 24x7 using up bandwidth...

Hi I am relatively new to DBS and although I have picked up a lot in the last few months from this site I would like to know if anyone can recommend a good tutorial on direct broadcast satellite technology including the different bands, transponders, diplexors, multiplexors and the like...

Before the server upgrade I was able to subscribe to RSS feeds so that new posts would show up on my Yahoo home page. Now I don't even see any info about RSS feeds on this website. Does anyone know how to get RSS feeds from this site?

Hi and thanks in advance for your help, I am looking to upgrade to the H-20 receiver and activate HD service on my account here in OKC. The 3lnb oval dish was installed in January. There is no multiswitch, I just have to lines coming from the lnb block going to a grounding block and then...

I have a D10 receiver and live in the CST time zone. My software version is 6325 and has not updated since I received the receiver in January. I called customer service about the update to provide active weather and they said I should have received it either on 6/8 OR 6/28. They suggested...
