    211 As OTA Tuner?

    I just thought it was weird, because I wasn't using any aspect of their service, just my local airwaves. That would be your 911 service on an unactivated cell phone, imho.

    211 As OTA Tuner?

    We cancelled our service last year with dish, but we still have an old 211 receiver with an ota tuner. I went to hook it up to the antenna, and I got a message saying my receiver's HD service wasn't activated. What gives? Why do I have to pay to use the OTA tuner in MY equipment?

    New XM Lineup

    Contrary to what most others are saying about the changes, I have to admit that I do like what they did. We just bought a new car (came with XM) and in our minivan we had sirius. We didn't like a majority of the XM channels and we're big fans of Classic Vinyl, Classic Rewind, The Spectrum, and...

    Contract Issue

    So here's my story...we originally started our dish network service in march of 2007, bundled with our phone company (AT&T, 18 month contract). Sometime in November we "unbundled" from AT&T and got a new account number from dish (all of our previous info, contract included, was transferred). We...

    VOOM on Uverse?

    I was browsing the AT&T Utalk forums and noticed this post from what I assume is an AT&T employee. I don't know how credible it is, but I just wanted to pass it on. Voom HD Networks + HD VOD + Subscription VOD + 1080p movies by end of 1Q2009 - TV Programming - U-talk Peer-to-Peer Forums

    Trial Period?

    After I place an order for directv service and it's installed, is there a period that I can cancel if I decide I don't like it? Without breaking my contract?

    Before I Consider Switching to DirecTV...

    I'm aware of the illegalities of "moving", but I just wanted to know if it's as simple to do as it is with dish network.

    superstation package and WSBK

    I kind of like that idea of mapping them down to the local channel range, as long as they don't interfere with my current local channels. For example, if I lived in Chicago and KTLA and WMAQ were both on channel 5, that wouldn't work out.

    After some searching, I was able to find some of the answers to my questions, but I still need help with others. I removed the questions I don't need answered. Thanks!

    Before I Consider Switching to DirecTV...

    I have a few questions before I consider switching to DirecTV from Dish Network. Is it possible to "move" with DirecTV service, and is it easy to do as it is with dish? How easy is it to get the NBC, CBS, ABC, & FOX national feeds in HD? Thanks so much for your insight! I'll post any other...

    I still haven't been turbo-charged...

    We got all the new channels, but no software update. This is for a 622. Have they not sent this to all the MPEG4 receivers yet?

    322 Switch Issue?

    No, I'm pretty sure we don't, unless that's what is standard on a dish 1000.

    322 Switch Issue?

    As of a few days ago, our 322 has been displaying the "There's an issue with your switch, run the check switch test...". After each run, all 4 birds are okay, and the receiver works perfectly. You have to run the check switch test when the message comes up, it won't let you ignore it. This...

    Move 61.5 dish to other house

    Well I think I'll take Andrewwski's advice and order a DP21 switch from the dishstore. If I were to get the other lnb, it would cost almost $40, where the switch is only $25. Another question for you guys, can I just remove the mounting off of my roof and use it on hers, or do I have to purchase...

    Move 61.5 dish to other house

    So I just checked, and it turns out she has a dish 500 with a dish pro twin lnb. Can I just replace that lnb with a dish pro plus twin, and do what I planned on doing before? Is there a cheaper method? This is just going to a single 211, by the way.

    Move 61.5 dish to other house

    We already have a hd receiver (won it on this site, actually:)). I'm going to go check and see if it has an "in" port tonight. Since it is already pointed at 61.5 at my house, should the signal be pretty easy to find at her house?

    Move 61.5 dish to other house

    My mother just got a HDTV for her house and has dish network. She has a DISH500 with a DISHPro Twin LNBF. Can I detach our dish 500 with dishpro dual lnb from our roof, and install it on hers? I should just be able to plug the dual into the twin, right (I hope that's what the parts are called!)...
