Just noticed Simple Mobile ads on SatGuys the past few days, and thought I'd pass on my recent experience with them. They're prepaid, and use the T-Mobile network. I'm paying $60/Month TOTAL (no sales tax, no fees, nothing extra) $60 =$60. Service has been really quite good. I've had em for...

Showing in the guide now... Have Absolute here and and getting Indie and Retro, but none of the others...not sure if I'm getting those two cause I have Absolute, or cause I have Starz...

I just realized that my vip622 system time is 4 minutes minutes behind the actual time. My recordings for the past three days are missing the first 4 minutes. Is it possible for this to only happen to some receivers (mine) and not everyone's? If it is just mine, is there a way to correct it? Thanks!

But not to Absolute customers...

You can still navigate to the TurboHD packages by selecting the Packages tab -> English Programming, but TurboHD is no longer one of the red 'tabs' at the top of their homepage. Wonder what this means exactly...maybe nothing, maybe a move away from those packages?

Channel 206 is showing up in my guide, but no HD version...

E* had a brief glitch in the video 9 minutes ago with the DNC HD coverage on channel 211, where the video switched from convention coverage to a channel that clearly displayed the SHO2 HD watermark in the lower right corner... "Beyond the Law", that is showing on the SD SHO2 is what displayed...

Nice to see E* as the company mentioned on USA HD by commentators that "our HD coverage brought to you by TurboHD by Dish Network". Also nice to see t heTurboHD logo and E* logo displayed on screen during play. D* normally pays for this honor, so I'm glad to see E* really stepping up their...

Since the release before L512 (L510?), I've been getting odd search results returned. It appears to be 'mostly' on the channels that are on 110, but has happened with ESPN2 (129 for me). If I bring up the guide and use the search key on let's say something on HBO channel 300, I get a duplicate...

HD Absolute does not have the following SD channels authorized. Anyone know why? Did E* fall asleep at the wheel on these, like they did for a few days to a week with CNN, SciFi, etc? Or is this intentional? No real rhyme/reason to this list, as other ABC and NBCUni SD channels are...

Is it unusual that the schedule for the 15 Voom channels on Voom.com only goes out through July 19th? I thought I recalled that the schedule could normally be viewed for the entire month. People have been talking about Cablevision possibly dropping Voom since no one knows if the contract has...

I'm looking for an ExpressVu 9200 or 9242. Looking for one in good condition that would have a $0 balance with Bell and the new smart card. I'd also consider a 6141. PM me if interested.

Could anyone in the Austin, Texas/South Central Texas area with a motorized dish tell me what type of signal they're getting on the Ku sats Nimiq2 (82W) and Nimiq1 (91W). I'm interested in signing up with a northern provider, but not sure what to expect signal-wise down here in Austin. Would...

I'm interested in finding out how far south into the US people are who are getting good signals strengths from Nimiq2 - 82W, and what dish sizes they're using. I'm particularly interested in the SSs on TPs 17 and 32. Anyone as far south as Austin, Texas getting solid signals on Nimiq2 - 82W?

... on channels 239 and 9446...(and no other National HD showing up for me, for those who'll ask).

Was there until just a wee bit ago. I'm still hoping E* and RM work this out, so not sure if the link removal is a bad sign or not. I reckon it is...

Luckily, I got a chance to play with an E* 622 for 20 minutes at Radio Shack to make sure it would operate they way I expected, which was really a necessary thing for me. Now that I'm considering D*, I want to play with a D* DVR, and none or my friends/family have one. Neither Best Buy, Costco...

I know you really only get a 1000+ if you subscribe to stuff on 118.7 (which I used to), but I'm wondering if the dedicated LNBF for 119 on a 1000.2 is better for 119 than the FSS/DBS Dual Band LNBF that is "shared" btwn 118.7 and 119 on a 1000+? Apple to apples, is the FSS/DBS Dual Band LNBF...

Nevermind! Found the problem! couldn't figure out how to delete my own post.

I'm a bit confused by transponders vs spotbeams, particularly as they relate to what is listed on the Echostar Knowledge Base hosted by DBSTalk.com. For example, at http://www.ekb.dbstalk.com/110list.htm for Dallas SD Locals, I see the 'TP' is listed as '20s21', or '29s21' (depending on the...

Can someone tell me how many GBs of drive space are available to me on a 622? Seems that Dish 'keeps' some for their own purposes? Its been a while since my 622 was empty of DVR events, but I think I recall it holding 30 hours of HD, and am trying to figure out how many GBs = that 30 hours? Also...

Howdy. Does anyone use Earthlink TrueVoice VoIP for their Dish phone line connection? The caller ID works, but I notice that that the 'Counters' state the 'Last Connect' on both my 622 receivers was on 1/5/07, the day I had Dish installed. (and I had Time Warner Digital Phone at that time, but...
