I better sign up for the 922 just in case....

Most apartment buildings with flat roofs will have roof access from within the building like thru a hatch or something. Most I have run into have AC units mounted on the roof that need access to them. I would try to find your building maintenance person and see if this is the case.

Actually I had to edit my post with the dates. But you can have the credit if you want it that bad.

Hey Guys, I have searched for this answer, but have yet to find it. I have a ViP722 with a Winegard SENSAR antenna. If I cancel my subscription to locals through Dish Network, will I also lose the guide info for my off-air locals. Dish Network does not carry my locals in HD and I can pull...

Agreed #1 has to be "Hurt" by NIN covered by Johnny Cash. Another good one is "Gin & Juice" by Snoop Dogg covered by The Gourds. Hilarious.

No you don't have to.

If it were me I would replace the DP Twin on the DISH 500 with 2 DP duals. It's just a matter of preference but I don't like the idea of hooking the built-in switch on the twin with a 34 or 44 switch. Kind of a "the less there is to go wrong, the less that will go wrong" thing.

If thats the case then the 44 switch might be the way to go if you don't mind shelling out the $200 for one.

It sounds like the best solution for you would be to get a DISH 1000.2 because it has three DPP outputs, and use separators on the dual tuner receivers. The DISH 1000.2 will get you the 119/110/129 birds and if you still require the 61.5 there is an input for that.

If it were me I would put in more than one run and plan for the future and not present. That way if in 5 yrs you need another run, its there. As far as spec RG-6 or RG-6U rated to 3Ghz should be fine.

Randall-Do you think the increase is due to the subs who simply get the HD receiver and hook up OTA and use the receiver for progam info and not sub to HD?

Yes, it is per month. But if you are talking about getting HD programming for your hockey, the HD package is $20 per month

Why upgrade to an HD-DVR?? If the DVR is the only thing you are interested, upgrade to a SD-DVR. Hooking up an HD-DVR to a SDTV is like putting race fuel into a Geo Metro.

My experience with OTA is limited so that is what I'm curious to see. Winter's in central Illinois can get kinda brutal so we shall see if it lasts. I'm just glad I get to watch my Illini in the Rose Bowl in HD, not to mention the Super Bowl. I'm just glad I don't have to look at my $10 set...

Thanks for the replies. I slapped an amplifier on there and got everything I wanted and then some. Side question: Why does dish re-format everything back to 4:3 if you run through the off-air input on the receiver?? IMO they look better hooked straight to the TV.

I live in East Central Illinois and the affiliates I'd like to receive are WCIA(CBS), WICS(ABC), WAND(NBC), and WRSP(FOX). WRSP is a bit farther away but the other three are in the same general vicinity. Is the SENSAR not the right choice??

Hey everybody, Hopefully someone can shed some light on my problem. I have an LG 37" LCD with a Dish Network ViP722. However, Dish does not offer my locals in HD. I had an old set of rabbit ears made by Philips that are amplified so i hooked them up to my TV to see what i could get. My local...

In the manual that should have come with your receiver upon installation, there are listings in the back of which Manufacturer's are compatible with Dish Remotes and the codes that go with them. :)

Could anyone tell me which Dish Network receivers support closed captioning. Thank you in advance.

What you may be able to do is go to the retailer you would like to use and tell them your situation, what you would like to do, and why you would prefer to go with someone else. They may be able to to petition to Dish Network to get an exception. It might work and it might not, but its worth a...

I'm located in East Central Illinois.

Yeah, I have set the AZ, SK, and EL and this is the highest I can get. I should mention that I am not using the Slimline dish, but rather the more squared reflector with separate LNB assembly...maybe the older version of the AU-9??

Hello all, Hopefully someone can help me here. I have the new DirecTV 5-LNB dish and am trying to install it myself. I have an H-20 receiver with a Zinwell 6 by 8 switch. I think I am on the right track but my problem is that I am a little confused about the 99 & 103 satellites. I have a 71...

That should work for you, I am located about 75 miles northeast and I use a Dish500 w/ DPP Twin and a wing for 61.5. Dish 500+ and Dish 1000+ are the same thing except that you add a mountiong bracket for 129 on the end cluster to make it a Dish 1000+
