    Order Dish service without Hopper?

    Thanks, I'll give it a try. I think I'm willing to spring for the extra DVR fee for the 722(k) since I would appreciate the 2nd tuner.

    Order Dish service without Hopper?

    I've been away from Dish for a while due to living in an apartment, looking to maybe come back. I don't really want a Hopper or the added fees that come with it and a Joey. Is it possible to order service that comes with a 722/722K still? I tried figuring it out on Dish's site, but if it's...

    Incorrect Guide Info for locals (Albuquerque, NM)

    An update on this - CBS seems fixed, but NBC is still wrong on Wednesdays. I will PM MattG my account details later on when I have a chance to look them up.

    Incorrect Guide Info for locals (Albuquerque, NM)

    Watch out again next week, like I mentioned in my post it looks like it's messed up again, as is NBC. Wednesday is the only day I've checked so far, I'll check out the rest after work today.

    Incorrect Guide Info for locals (Albuquerque, NM)

    I noticed that my prime-time guide info is wrong for some of my locals in Albuquerque, NM, but only on certain days. For example, last night it said my CBS (KRQE) shows were Criminal Minds (7pm), CSI (8pm), Survivor (9pm). In reality, it was Survivor (7pm), Criminal Minds (8pm), CSI (9pm). It...

    BIG 10 is BACK - A Deal Has Been Reached!

    What's up with the differing offers? I practically had to beg for $5/month for 3 months.

    BIG 10 is BACK - A Deal Has Been Reached!

    Also, I just chatted with a CSR and got no offer of credits of any type. All I got was the standard cut and paste response about negotiations. And even funnier, [Big Ten] (with the brackets) was pasted into the boilerplate response. What a joke.

    BIG 10 is BACK - A Deal Has Been Reached!

    UPDATED Saturday, September 8, 2012 --- 11:30 a.m. From Big Ten Network: Big Ten Network (BTN) and DISH have come together to reach an agreement in principle for DISH to continue carrying BTN. We expect to finalize a long-term agreement soon and we thank fans for their patience.

    BIG 10 is BACK - A Deal Has Been Reached!

    This is ridiculous. They announced last week that they had reached an agreement, and now they pull it at the last minute without warning? I signed a 2-year agreement with Dish 2 months ago, and I never would have done that if I knew BTN was going to be dropped.

    BIG 10 is BACK - A Deal Has Been Reached!

    This one will get resolved within one week I'm guessing. As large as the AMC outcry was on this board, it really isn't that popular a channel nationally. If you mess with people's college football, though, watch out. I would imagine that Dish would see a notable and nearly immediate exodus of...

    What equipment will I get?

    I can get by with a single 622/722/722K serving my house - so $6 DVR fee, no receiver fee. Adding a Hopper and a single Joey for mirroring is $11/month more. That's my main problem with the fee structure on these.

    What equipment will I get?

    Thanks for the tip. It's hard for me to justify the Hopper/Joey at $11 (or $18 if I want two more connections) per month more when I can just mirror the TV2 out of the 622/722/722K, which is good enough for my current setup. If Dish ever reconsidered and included the 1st Joey in the $4...

    What equipment will I get?

    My wife and I are moving into a new house soon, so I'm trying to figure out the TV solution. I'm probably going to go with Dish again, but I'm not sold on the Hopper/Joey combo, mostly because of all the added fees. If I select the options right so that it wants to give me one of the...

    Questions for the Dish Tech Team?

    But if I start the same in-progress recording from the other tuner, it allows me to resume my place when viewing, so clearly that pointer is already being tracked.

    Questions for the Dish Tech Team?

    Glad to see I'm not the only one bothered by this :) One other suggestion I would have: If I'm recording on tuner 1 of a dual DVR and then start watching the recording (not live tv) from tuner 1, when I stop the recording and want to start from where I left off, my only choice (if the...

    Questions for the Dish Tech Team?

    Would it be possible for back-to-back DVR recordings on the same channel to each be padded at the front and end? I.e. there would be identical video in each of the recordings. Right now back-to-back recordings on the same channel don't get either the front or end paddings, which can lead to...

    Dying 622...what to expect from Dish on replacing

    They tried to charge shipping when my 622 went under, but I balked because it was their leased receiver that failed. They waived the shipping as 'one-time favor', so it's at least worth asking.

    Dying 622...what to expect from Dish on replacing

    You'll most likely get a refurb 622. That's what I got a couple months back when my 622 lost its mind.

    HD For Life Without Commitment/$100?

    I was helping my dad get set with the free HD for life promotion by doing the 24-month commitment. I went online on his account to do so, and saw that he was listed as having HD platinum for $10/month and already being signed up for HD free for life. I removed the platinum pack, and it still...
