I tried a little experiment awhile back and maybe it's just my eyes but I could not notice the difference between my OTA locals vs through Dish for quality of HD. Granted it was not a full scientific measurement experiment.

I'm in one of those local markets but don't give a rat's a.. about ABC (never watch it) and with FOX I only watch 49er games. I wondered why the 49er game today did not record. I have OTA so if I really need to watch their future games I can do it that way...although I hate watching anything...

You mean they still send out a SD signal? :) Thanks, I must have pressed that down arrow key one time too many when I setup up this on my NHL favorites with CI.

What's up with NBCSN? I only watch Hockey but the few times I've recorded and watched the freaking broadcast appears to be in SD with black bars all around it. I searched and didn't find out any threads related to this.

I don't really watch that many movies. What I can record on my DVR with the basic Movies stations I do receive on the 250 package, plus Epix (through Blockbuster at Home but would add if that is dropped) and now that I'm back with Netflix two a month with Blu-Ray I'm fine. And, there are the...

I installed two RG-6 connectors and removed the excess cabling. There is no way the barrel connection will be removed. House was just painted last week. All cabling underneath was painted over. The cabling goes underneath, runs up the first inside rafter, where another barrel connection is...

I just looked at some YouTube video's and I'll do the cable myself. Too many things going on today getting ready for new paint beginning tomorrow.

Update Well, I had a 21+ year old roof and a big bad hail storm in October 2011 did damage to thousands and thousands of homes in North Chico. In summer and fall of 2012 roofers from all over were congregating in Chico to replace a multitude of roofs. My house qualified for a new roof for the...

Good point. I can live with where it is now and clean up the cabling. I had some 2x6 con common redwood in my garage so tonight I cut it at 28" (will cut to actual length later). I rpped it, after measuring, into 3" and 2 5/16" widths and primed it. I will paint this blocking to match house...

After thinking about it some more this afternoon I've slightly modified my plan. I will move the mount over to the left and upwards (viewed from above) so it will be secured with at least three lags into blocking between outermost two rafters. I will then disconnect cable at connection (see...

Your suggestion will work. It's 3 1/2" to the edge of rafter and the outside mounting holes are 4" oc. I could slightly angle the screws into the rafter and put some silicone around the head so no moisture leaks in because of the slight angle. I'll use stainless steel also. ?It's been like...

I took a closer look and they punched machine screws through the decking. I'll get some lock washers and nuts. As a backup I will schedule an appointment for a couple of days after my roof should be done so I could cancel if not needed. I'll have to see how long average time is for my area...

I looked at some prior threads and the following is closest to what I will be experiencing: ? The big screws now go through roof and decking. My plan, after new roof, is to drill small holes back up through existing holes in roof decking and remount. The thickness of the new architectural...

Call and say you don't want ESPNU HD as well as .... There are probably just as many people who give a rat's a.. about ESPNU HD as do. I'm in that category.

I received an email today with my first two certificates. I did as suggested earlier and online I chose to cancel then was given the $5 off for 6 months. I re-signed with Netflix at 2/month - $6. I had completely forgotten how superior Netflix is. From ratings to displaying selections and...

I'm probably in the minority but I wouldn't miss ESPN in the least. I did read an article recently showing ESPN has lost market share so I can't imagine they are asking for an increase. But what do I know.

Old News about Blockbuster ending. Good news about receiving 1 pay per view/month for 3 months.

I'm not really interested in the Olympic games, but if I was interested I would go to Dish Gold before AT250.

When this happens every year I downgrade to Dish Silver. I've compared and Dish Silver is fine for ME until hockey starts again and NBCSN start broadcasting the Red Wings often, then I go back to Dish Gold. I also subscribe to NHLCI.

Wolfjc's answer Item #2 on page 1, to wait a few days, solved my issue. A day or two later I was able to set the Wings vs Jets game to record. I wonder what causes future games on the CI SD channel to appear a day or two before it appears on the CI HD channel? Yes, this year we have had...

Thanks wolfjc. I will keep checking before Saturday's game. Up by 4! I suppose I should be happy, although I haven't started watching it yet. There is always some new way I hear about a score of a sports DVR event I am recording before watching. :) I've been very good the past few years...

I have an earlier post where I was wondering why, living in CA, I could not record the Jets vs Wings game Saturday on 630. Even after given a reason from the Dirt Team why it is blacked out, it doesn't square with what shows on the link at DN: Blackout Restrictions I explored further and used...

OK, How could this happen. I'm trying to set a DVR event for this Saturday at 4:00 for the Jets vs Wings game. It says not available and when I click on Help it tells me it is blacked out. What??? Blacked out when I live in California? I'm not even blacked out for the Sharks games on CI...

That was my post. I was directed to this thread. My software version is L721RJKD-N. Looks like no update yet. I can begin a download of a movie, which I started viewing maybe 20-30 minutes later. About 20 minutes or more into the movie the screen froze and then my receiver re-booted. When...

I have a 722 DVR. A category 5 cable connection between my 2Wire 1701HG Gateway Router/Modem to the 722. When I go through Setup - Diagnostics - Connection it connects. I can look at Blockbuster and everything else. The next day it says my receiver is not connected. I go back to Setup -...
