Thanks, set up an appointment for them to install the other dish. At least they waived the charges.

I'm speaking to Dish tech support and he's telling me that I need 2 dishes in order to get local HD in Greensboro NC. I was under the impression that because I already have the 1000.2 dish that I was all set for local hd. Anyone getting hd in this area without having the monstrosity of 2 dishes...

This story was poorly researched and an example of incompetent journalism. The obvious question here is when did Toshiba start setting prices for movies? Did anyone ask this before spreading this nonsense about? People, think before you post...phew.

Everyone takes something to enhance their job performance. Think about it...how productive would most of us be without daily doping up on caffeine to push ourselves beyond what our bodies would naturally be capable of? Don't be so judgemental. The use of drugs to enhance work performance are...

Why would all the HD DVD guys go to netflix if Blockbuster has HD DVD online just as netflix has?

Great match that...but the bowl off concept is crap.

Ok, this "move" thing intrigues me. I don't get HD locals either but there are two cities close by one about 60 miles east and the other about 85 miles south of me that get them. Do I just make up an address and as long as I give them the right zip code for one of these cities I'm in business?

Sure...but temporary could mean that feature won't be available for the next 5 years. There is no time limit on temporary.

How about the ability to move my usb drive between the two 622's on my account without the 3 move limit. That way I can record something in the living room and watch it in the bedroom or vice versa.

Is there any chance that their HD version would actually carry news instead of propaganda like their SD version does now? If so count me in as a supporter.

Well that sucks! So even if you have two 622's on your account you're stuck to using it on one after 2 switches? One of the main reasons for using this for me was to enable me to watch stuff in the bedroom that I recorded in the living room and vice versa. WTF!

Shweeet

Anyone get the dishcomm to work between two recievers plugged into surge protectors? We get some bad storms here in the summertime and I don't want to risk my 622's by just plugging them into the wall.

I'm in Greensboro NC and I just need one dish (1000.2) to get all the HD dish is offering.

Thanks, found it as soon as i posted...:o

What channel is NGHD? I've been looking all over for it and can't find it. And yes, I do have top America's Top 250 with HD

Yep, one of the main reasons I signed up with Dish so so i can get the cricket WC 2007 coverage. Sign me cricket starved in America...:)

Check in on channel 457. They were showing a lot of cricket last night for free. Tommorow (friday 3/9) they will be showing some more starting at 8:45am.

Ok, here's how it's gone so far. After reading the many helpful comments on this thread, and also speaking with the installer, I decided to go it the safe way and run new cabling for the sat feed. Heck they were doing it for free anway so why the hell not right? Don't know why he did this but he...

Excellent stuff guys, I'll let you know how it goes. Now let me get to digesting some of this info.

BigFella, thanks for the info. My dish is being installed on a pole in the backyard. What antenna do you recommend. My zip is 27405 and from antenna web it looks like I'm in the yellow or red zone for the stations in my area. I would prefer a solution that integrates aesthetically with the dish...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking around here for a few weeks and finally I'm making the plunge today and getting Dish installed (2 x vip622). I want to keep my roadrunner service (and basic cable), and also integrate an OTA feed with my Dish feed so I can get local HD. The installer said I'd...
