BEV HD Channels All But Gone on Central CA Coast Sat down tonight to watch a little US HD programming,and found that the only US HD network I can receive is CBS out of Seattle. Am I the only one?! Although HD channels have come and gone while BEV played around trying to keep things alive, I...

After struggling for days to resolve a non-existent switch problem (see Help with Switch Problem), I had resigned myself to having to give up on ExpressVu and move to StarChoice. Not that I think Star Choice is a lesser provider, but the hassle of changing companies was something I was not...

Hi guys, need a little help to figure out a problem. First, I am in the San Luis Obispo, CA area, about halfway between LA and San Fran on the coast. I use ExpressVu to receive and DVR the US nets in high def, and pretty much that is it. Using a 9200 HD receiver and ever since the...

The link below indicates that BEV will be rolling out the re-badged Dish HD Rx'ers in April. Have to assume they are moving to MPEG4 sooner rather than later. Wonder what deals will be offered? I paid a pretty penny for a 9200 and I hate to just keep poring more money into this, especially...

OK guys, I have read the forums and I have to say I am confused (not an unusual state, just ask my wife). There has been lots of discussion about whether a larger dish will pull in the missing Expressvu HD channels in centeral/southern California, but I can't tell if anyone has successfully...

Anyone have the full scoop on what is going on with the BEV HD channels? I've lost, CTV E&W, CTYE, NBCW, FoxW, SN, and the Movie Channel. Located in central CA. I had understood they may be moving a few channels around, but that's a bunch to lose. I am not clear on why, maybe someone can...

Don't get much chance to read the forums anymore, but knew where to turn when I need help. Having a problem and want to know if anyone else has encountered the same thing. About once a week, the video coming out of our BEV 9200 receiver will have heavy green horizontal lines in it...

What's the best guess on when ExpressVu will come out with an HD DVR? Considering selling our 6000 and getting an 6100, but don't want to go that route if a HD DVR is around the corner. I'll wait a bit if one is coming out within the next 6 months.

Anyone have a clue what is going on with the BEV CBS west coast HD channel (822)? I get a screen telling me, "Trouble originating from service provider. Service will be restored when it becomes available to Bell ExpressVu." Anyone know what's the trouble?

I have to assume it's just my system and not a provider problem, as there's no thread giving detailing, but my 6000 works on all HD channels except for both the east and west CBS and PBS channels. There's a message box that keeps popping up on the CBS channels that states, "Your SmartCard does...

Trying to watch the GB/Indy game, and FoxHE (638) keeps dropping out. Anyone else having a problem with this channel? All the HD channels are locking up, but this one for some reason keeps dropping out of lock. My signal strength is pretty low on this transponder (14) at 45, while the others...

Work has kept me away from the forum for some time, but I occasionally get to scan for highlights, and I got to say this added forum was needed and appreciated. That said, here's my question. When will Bell come out with their version of the 921(2)? I am sure I could search around and find...

Anyone using a Harmony 659 remote to operate the 2nd tuner in the 522? I could be crazy (who am I kidding, I'm certifiable), but I thought I read that the 2nd tuner would accept UHF and IR commands. At this point I've tried all the Dish DVR devices in the Harmony database, and about half the...

Surge Suppression and Power Conditioning What is everyone doing for surge suppression and possibly power conditioning? I know this topic has been beaten to death from time to time, but I'm curious what everyone is doing if anything, in these two areas. Just got a ZeroSurge 8R15TWR myself...

Sorry for the long post, but wanted to give a good story (for once on this site) from a new Dish customer who just completed an install. Got the 522 and 811 installed yesterday. It took a month to get the 811 in, but not a problem for me. The installer was knowledgeable and easy to work...

I know I haven't waited as long for an 811 as some, but I signed up at the end of Jan for DHP with an 811 and a 522. 811 being in short supply, it took 4 weeks to get it in at my local dealer. Installer called Wed and set up a Sat install, and I was excited. Got home that evening and my Mits...

Well I finally did it, signed up for Dish today. Nothing like waiting until the last minute, got into the system 5 minutes before the promotion ended today (at least that is the line the local seller/installer told me). Signed up for an 811 and a 522, with the HD and AT120 pak. The Rx’ers are...

I've been reading this forum for months now, learning and weighing that most important of Life Decisions, what HD satellite system to buy. ;) The information has been great, as well as the banter. After careful comparison, I find that the channels I really watch are on both systems, in...

First let me say that this is an excellent site and forum. I have been reading through and have learned a lot. Currently our household does not have a satellite system (using Charter cable - poor quality), but have purchased a Hi-Def Mits TV. Bought it originally to watch improved DVDs, but...
