Thanks for your help on this. Got it switched over to Chicago locals, works great.

ok thanks--so then if i buy a 211 ( assuming I'd look on ebay or something?), do I have to get that activated at my primary home first? Would I have to pay another monthly charge for that? I'd only use it at the cottage on rare occasions (a football game, a movie, etc). We would never watch...

Ok thanks So would I use the card from one of my receivers at home in the 211?

New dish customer here. I have a hopper, a super Joey, and 2 joeys. The hopper and super Joey would be difficult to move. However, the joeys would be easy to move and bring with to a cottage we use in the summer. There is already a dish on the roof of this cottage from an old owner. Can I bring...

Are you serious? Cut down the trees on my wooded lot so I can watch more TV? "I love how customers want the world..." Hey do me a favor and get off your high horse you sanctimonious jerk.

So installer left, we only have SD locals. :( So is the only solution to "move"?

thanks guys

I don't know what we get yet, the installer is still here working... I couldn't find the Chicago spot beam map, but the other spot beam maps I looked at looked huge--you sure it wouldn't reach up here?

All our TVs are HD, wouldn't really want SD receivers. The installer said we have satellites 110, 119, and 129, if that helps. Chicago locals would be great if we "moved", but not essential. But not having any HD network channels would be a deal breaker. Are there other areas that we'd be in...

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, I tried to search but couldn't find the exact answer. Just switched from Directv to Dish. Installer came today while I was at work and talked to my wife. He said that he would hook it up now, but in a year or so we would lose our locals, because we...

I have Directv coming in 2 days to do a new install (replacing Dish Network). I have 4 TVs in my house, and they are bringing a Hr-34 and 3 HD boxes. Currently I have a Dishnetwork box, and have my living room TV connected via HDMI, and a bedroom TV connected to the same box via components run...

Can I get the AAA discount AND a referral discount? I have a AAA membership, and I see how to get that discount. How would I add a referral discount on top of that? Is it possible?

do i need to sign up for a AAA membership for that? Then do i go through the AAA website to get the discount, or is there a code I put in on Directv's website? thanks!

Without going into too much detail, can you give me a thumbnail on what the HR34 can do that the HR24 can't?

I am a Dish customer who would like to switch to Directv, and I have a couple questions I was hoping you could help me with. First, I called Directv yesterday, and they quoted me a price of 52.99 per month after the autopay credit and 31/month rebate. When I got my activation email, the bill...

I apologize for going a bit off-topic here, but if I get a second DVR, would I have to set it up to record all the same shows as I do on the main DVR, or will it add and delete shows whenever I do the same on the main DVR if I have the whole-house DVR setup? I wouldn't want to have to schedule...

I didn't know you could hook up to the DirecTV box with both HDMI and components. Thanks for the info, that will save me a bit.

Well Chip, the CSR said I might pay less after the one year deal was over, so I wanted to know if it was true. Companies often have deals for existing customers that you'd only know about if you called and asked for it, so I wanted to know if people had called and asked for it.

i was going to do the choice ultimate for the first year because they are giving you the sunday ticket for free right now if you get ultimate or premier. Otherwise I'd get the Xtra. Just wondering if they are willing to drop the price at all for existing customers. The CSR said that I could...

well, it's not an apples to apples comparison. I have a 722 box with Dish Network, which I have rigged to control 3 TVs (run an HDMI to the living room TV, run a long component cable to the bedroom TV, so both are considered TV1, then run another TV with the 722s antenna), plus I have another...

I am considering making the jump from Dish Network, which I've had for about 5 years, to Direct TV. Mostly it's because I want the whole-house DVR service, I like Sunday ticket, and I'm annoyed that Dish Network wants me to pay $200 to upgrade to a 922 receiver. I called and found out I could...

is there a way to switch the recording from tv1 to tv2 (or vice versa) either before or during the recording?

Not sure if this affects things but I control another TV upstairs with this box. I would like to be able to watch one thing upstairs, and another thing downstairs. also, if i'm not watching something upstairs, i'd like to be able to watch something downstairs (on the tv with the box) while i'm...

I have a dual tuner HD dvr from dish. Sometimes (not all the time), when i am recording a single show, it won't let me watch live TV without stopping my recording. How do i fix this?

OK so for the last week or so the sides of my picture have been cut off, and i can't figure out why. ITs like I have zoomed in a little on the picture, but I haven't to my knowledge changed any setings. I have a Dish HD-DVR box and a 50" widescreen plasma tv. I looked in the dish menu, and i am...
