    Any chance at a free 622?

    So I was only able to get one 622 when I had my service installed - I settled for a 522 for the second HDTV. I like north of Atlanta, where there's no way to get 129 due to tree cover. I've spent ~$200 in OTA stuff to get my HD locals. I called CS and was told $149 for a 622 to replace the...

    Distant HD for no LOS or OTA?

    Would it be possible to get a distant channel waiver for HD channels if you're unable to get them due to 129 no-LOS and no OTA?

    Move the Atlanta HD LiL to 61.5!

    What would it take to get Dish to move the Atlanta HD locals to 61.5? I know an enourmous amount of Dish customers here that can't get 129 due to trees, hills, etc. - but most of us get 61.5. It's terribly frustrating to be told that I'd have to have a 50-60 foot pole in order to get HD...

    Legacy LNB Straight Into 622?

    Simple question - Can I run a single legacy LNB straight into the two tuners on a 622? Don't have a meter and I want to see if I can get 129.

    What can ya do with legacy stuff?

    So I picked up two dish 500s - one with a quad, and one with a twin - and a sw64. What can you do with these? Does anyone still use them? Will any retailers give credit on other equipment? I know I need a DPP44 for my setup. Any ideas?

    So the installer came on Saturday...

    So the installer came on Saturday - FIVE HOURS he was there. :eek: He must've moved the old DirecTV pole at the corner of the yard at least six times before being able to lock into 110. He claimed he couldn't get 129, so I've got 110,119, and 61.5. It's a varitable tree of dishes out there...

    Well it looks like I'm back!

    Well hello, again! I have had service with E* before, a 522 in a single bedroom apartment. The wife and I just bought a house, remodeled the kitchen, living room, and master bath, and are finally moving in! Got an ok deal on a 622 and a 625 today - $199 installed, with Dish Platinum w/locals...

    Model 5000 + 8PSK?

    Is there _any_ way to add 8PSK to a 5000 unit? I'd love to be able to use the 8VSB HDTV digital modulator output, but its not compatible with the 6000 (or is it?). Thanks all.

    DVB capture card and E*?

    Has anyone tried to use a DVB-S capture card similar to this: http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Products/TwinHan/TH1030A.htm with a Nagravision CAM and Dish Network access card? Not in any way related to piracy, but to use your existing Dish service and build a MythTV or Freevo based PVR? I think...
