Any updates when Wetumpka/Elmore will upgrade to SDV or add HD channels? No new HD in over two years. The internet upgrade was awesome. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

I am going to switch today to DirecTV from Brighthouse cable. I want the new Geenie and Choice Ultimate. I've got an account number from a friend so the both of us will get $10 for ten months due to the referral. What is the best way to sign up for DirecTV and get the best deals? Call...

I had brighthouse come out today to install a cable card on my tivo premiere. They can't seem to get the digital adn hd channels working. The people in my area seem to be clueless. Shouldn't channels work with an authorized cablecard? The tech couldn't figure it out and told me to call the...

I figured out how to get into another settings menu while the box is off to change the 4:3 override setting to stretch. I want my non-HD channels to fit the screen. However, the box will not retain the setting. I'm passing the HDMI from the box through an Onkyo receiver. How do I make the box...

BH is coming to install TV service this weekend (already have roadrunner). We are leaving Dish and saving some money but losing a bunch of HD channels. BH in my area (Wetumpka) only offers about 50 HD channels while in Birmingham it offers around 100. Why the big discrepancy? How do I find...

Anyone know when we can expect an app compatible with Honeycomb? The app works great on my phone running gingerbread but not on my tablet running Honeycomb.

I took advantage of the sling adapter rebate. I installed it and got it to work on the internet. I had to reisntall the droid app to get it to work there. Now, I can't connect on the net or the droid. I've checked my internet connection status on the 722k and it shows that it's good. I try...

Dish is sending me a 722(not k) to replace my 622. Is there any difference in the ability to pick up OTA channels? I am hoping the 722 is better. My 211 gets better OTA signal than the 622. The 622 has not been very good for me for OTA. My TV tuners and the 211 do a much better job...

I have a Winegard HD8200U hooked up to a Channel Master 7777 pre-amp in my attic. (Zip 36092) I want to make sure my setup is correct. I have the pre-amp power supply really close to the antenna and plugged in in the attic. I have another amp at the TV. Should I remove the amp at the TV and...

I got a co-worker set up with Dish network a couple of weeks ago. He's having problems with his remote for TV1 on his VIP222. Dish just sent him a new remote but it doesn't work either. Does the new remote have to be programmed? The old remote would only work if you placed it right in front...

I hope I am posting this in the correct forum. I have a Nintendo Wii and a wireless connection. If I purchase the Wii internet browser will I be able to watch streaming video such as Netflix or MLB.TV from it?

I just went into my menu and locked the adult channels and some other channels. I made sure that I also marked for them not to show up in the guide. They still show up though. Do I need to reboot for these changes to happen? Why am I still seeing these channels?

I just got Dish's offer to upgrade to an HD DVR and no extra cost. I currently have a VIP 211 with Classic Gold and HD. I've heard that the receiver I would get is the 622. I have several questions about the 622: 1. Does it have an OTA tuner? If so, is it better than the 211? The 211...

Why are Fox News HD and Fox Business News HD not in Turbo Gold? I called Dish and talked to a supervisor. She said that they would consider adding it later. Dish's website lists these channels under Turbo Gold HD. This is false advertising. Anyone know why we don't have these in the Turbo...

Last night I upgraded from Dish HD only to AT250 with HD Ultimate. While the CSR was on the phone I looked at the channels to make sure they were all there. All of the channels didn't show up so she had me do a soft reboot. On reboot the "acquiring satellite signal" for 119 came up as usual...

I live in Alabama and have Dish Network and AT&T(old Bellsouth). I read an article recently that said that AT&T was going exclusively with Dish for thier bundles after the first of the year. I called Bellsouth and Dish and noone had any answers for me. The website still lists te bundle with...

My parents have Charter digital with hd and internet in Montgomery, Alabama. They saw the picture quality of DishNetwork at my house and decided to switch soon. However, they are keeping Charter Basic and internet. What HD channels does Charter provide via unencrypted QAM? Their tvs do...

I just bought a new Olevia 242V LCD. The picture and all of the features are amazing. However, the TV won't retain my settings adjustments. I've called Olevia and they didn't know what the problem was. They said they would call me back. They didn't. I still have a few weeks to return the...

I live in 36092 and receive my local digital channels through a CM 4228 with a 7777 pre-amp. I was using an LG 4200A to get all of my locals and not using the 211 for OTA. I had the LG hooked up via DVI and the 211 via component. Well, my wife bought me a new DVD recorder with upconversion so...

I called Dish today to check into adding the sports pack to America's Top 100. Although the website says it can only be added to AT 100 Plus the rep said I could add it to AT 100 for $5.99 a month. I've already got the $20 HD add-on to AT 100. I was told that adding the sports pack will add...

I'm moving to zip 36092. I looked at antennaweb and it looks like my CBS and Fox are pretty far apart. I need some help on getting the best reception with what I currently have: Channel Master 4228, CM 7777, LG 4200A HDTV receiver, Dish VIP211, Terk HDTVi indoor antenna. I'm moving to this...

I have a CM 7777 pre-amp that I no longer need for an antenna because I now get all of my local digitals throught my LG 4200A using qam. The signal quality on the analog channels is very grainy and the HD is not as good as the OTA. Can I use the 7777 as an amp to boost the cable tv signal?

I'm about to move to zip code 36092 and I'm going to buy a CM 4228. I already have a CM 7777 pre-amp that I use with my HDTVi in 36117. It gets good signal strenght on all of the digital stations. When I move, should the 4228 pick up all of the stations without a rotor? Will the 4228 be...

Last night, all of the sudden, my Vip211 stopped acquiring the satellite signal. I didn't do anything to the unit or the dish. We had perfect weather too. I tried a soft reset and a hard reset. Nothing worked. I called Dish tech support and they went through the motions with me. The check...

I've got a Vip211 and use a Terk HDTVi (I'm switching to a CM 4228 around x-mas) for my locals here in Montgomery(36117). I get great reception through the 211 on all channles and they got even stronger when I added a CM 7777 pre-amp. However, I used to get my local Fox station at 72% strength...
