I was paying about $97 at E* for all channels but the premiums. No sports package. Just Cinemax for .01. Many of my baseball games were either jip in HD or outright in SD when I know FSSW was carrying them in HD (D* had them in HD, I checked). Plus my locals weren't in HD. Now I'm paying about...

Thanks everyone, I had read up on some of that in the manual, but was hoping for the 3 hour display - kinda helps me plan the whole evening. Much appreciated, all.

I just switched to D*, with 1 tv, and the only thing I'm paying is the monthly charge, which is about $50 a month less than E* for the first year, and $25 @ month next year............for the same service. No charge for the HR 24, which I'm quickly falling in love with, no charge for...

Thanks, Jimbo. I had pretty much guessed that it took a bit of time to fill out all the data for 2 weeks. And, sigh, I was just hoping that it would show 3 hours worth. Much appreciated. Bob

2 questions. First, I looked ahead to Fri nite, and my guide info hasn't populated. I did this about 2-3 hrs after service was initiated on my D* account. How can I re-load or update my guide info to get the 14 days I think I should have? Second, the guide only shows 1 1/2 hours worth of...

I just had D* installed today, connected my Harmony 670 and added the HR 24 to my system. It works fine. I put a space between HR and 24, could that have been your problem with it? Not sure if spacing matters or not. The 670 is an older remote, a peanut shape, but I love it. It's my 2nd remote...

99, 101, and 103 look pretty good to me. The azimuth is higher than 129 by far, and they are more to the south than it is, which means I don't have that tree in the way. Initially the installer strapped it to the chimney, below sight line from the front of the house, and could go directly into...

Thanks, I looked at the 110 and 119, which are the same as E* has. But I didn't know if there were other from D* that I would need for my programming. If those are the only 2, they're in good locations for me.

I currently have E* and when we put in HD, we had trouble with the Sat at 129 being lower in the sky. I live in East Texas about 2 hrs north of Houston. I'm moving to D* because of costs and programming. Are the D* sats higher or lower in the sky around here? Seems there's a tree across the...

Heck, the Dish installer tried his best to get my dish in a location that would pick up the HD channels. Finally he put it on the flat roof of my workshop behind my garage and "anchored it" to a flat cinder block. Ain't no thang to remove that one. And I never did have any reception problems...

I'm jumping. I've gotten their email replies explaining why my baseball games can't be on HD when Directv is carrying them on HD. And those explanations don't fly. Can't get my locals in HD with Dish. I bounced the channels in HD that I'll lose against what I'll gain, and it's a wash for my...

Well, I semi-lied. My buddy says Direct has Rangers vs White Sox in HD tonight. But, E* has them in SD for all 3 games. So maybe somebody at E* is lazy. Or most likely, they don't want to dedicate the bandwidth to it. Stinks either way. I wonder if sending a link to this thread to...

The idea that they're too lazy to set up the HD doesn't really hold unless they show all the away games in a particular city in SD, but tonite the Rangers away game in in SD, but tomorrow's will be HD. I have a friend who has DTV, I'll call him when the game starts and see if he has it in HD...

I'm in the Dallas DMA, but I guess the A's being west coast makes sense with what you were saying. Dang. But thanks.

For the last two nights, FSSW has shown the Texas Rangers @ Oakland A's in HD. Last night the HD didn't start until an hour into the game. And tonight, 1/2 hour into the game it's not showing up. I've written to ceo@echostar. But ain't getting a lotta comfort from that. Is this happening with...

One thing I've learned since I've got HD on E* is that "soon" doesn't actually mean SOON.

I just posted on another thread about the same thing. FSSW has ALL Texas Rangers games in HD, but E* is not showing them. If DTV is, then my bu** is switching to them.

I'm getting a bit concerned too about FSN SW and the Texas Rangers games. According to the Rangers web site, every FSSW game this year will be in HD. But so far, on the Dish schedule only Monday's and Thursday's game this week will be. I just updated my Dish schedule and no change. One game (in...

I've recorded a lot of shows, mostly on CBS, though not all, and sometimes when I watch the show while the program is still recording from my timer, it will stop playback near the end. At that point, I'm only able to re-start, but even when I do, it stops in the same place, usually with 10 or...

I often record programs using the DVR (a 622) and then start watching them shortly after they start, by pulling up the recording - the tv is often on another channel. That way I can eat dinner, cut commercials, etc., and have things at my convenience. However, since last year, I've noticed that...

I really did enjoy some of the VOOM channels, but sense that they weren't that popular with folks here. I'd take 'em back. Especially the travel stuff..........was some good eye candy.

Thanks. I appreciate your help. I meant to put an "LOL" in my reply. Sorry for the omission.

ok, you skipped one. Yes to telling them that it's already up and running? Yes to autobilling? And thanks.

If I were to get D and found I was not satisfied with the Locals for my area, and wanted to "move", could I do so and tell them that there was already a dish there and I had hooked up my own equipment with everything looking fine? Would it be necessary for a tech to come out? I would want to...

Thanks for the input. I guess I'm trying to ask whether I'll see more HD games in the Tyler DMA with D than I currently do in the Dallas DMA with E*. Also asking for a comparison of FoxSoutwest HD between the two.
