    More HD content in Hawaii?

    Does anyone know of any new HD channels for Hawaii or a link where I can find out whether E* has more HD channels in store for the 50th State? Thanks much in anticipation. I've always gotten great help on this forum.

    Any more HD content for Hawaii?

    While it's gotten better, we still have crumbs of HD content compared to what you guys get on the mainland. I'd especially like to see a Fox Net regional sports channel in HD - so I can get the Fox Sports Net college football games of the week. Also, it would be nice to get Versus in HD as...

    When does free preview of Versus & FSC end?

    I would appreciate that info, as I want to watch a football game next Saturday, but not sure if Versus is still free by then (I only have America's 200). Thank you.

    Setanta, Channel 406

    Thanks! Well, I am going to get my EPL fix for at least a few weeks. Then maybe I will pony up to get the AT 250, for Fox Soccer Channel. Man, Setanta is soooo much better, but at $14.95, it's not worth it to me. At least by upgrading $10 to get the AT 250, I will get ESPNU and also some...

    Setanta, Channel 406

    I've started to get this channel on my America's 200 on channel 406 (I think it might be free preview week). This is also on the free preview channel, on one of the 280s. But I was getting a little excited b/c even with the free preview on the 280s, usually if I can't normally get the channel...

    Signal strength for HD channels

    Hmm..the DISH guy did come out He did try to tune the 1 meter DISH to catch the 110 spot beam, but it wasn't working too well. He left scratching his head and mentioned that there is a chance it could be the water in the tube where the cables are. It would seems that the cables could...

    Signal strength for HD channels

    I live in Hawaii and DISH is doing a spot beam on transponder 23 off the 110. It's supposed to create a great signal for HD channels. However, mine is coming in at around 56 or 55, and the channels basically don't work. I recently had a guy route the dish cables underneath some flooring in...

    Hd Sound Hdmi Dropout

    I'm having similar problems I am wondering if it is the HDMI cable that the DISH retailer guy gave me. Well, I have a 622 and I first started losing sound. Then I started losing picture and sound (remote TV works fine). Now if I bend the HDMI cable near the 622 HDMI port, sometimes the video...

    Help! No HD reception.

    Thank you harshness The retailer installed an old LNB (hence the SW44?) to save me some money on initial installation (October 2005). It has given me problems here and there but for the most part, it's been acceptable. Recently, there has been a spot beam from 129 to Hawaii so that we get a...

    Help! No HD reception.

    Aloha Everyone, I have a vip622 and my HD reception is completely gone. I live in Hawaii so I probably have an atypical set up compared to everyone else. I have a 1 meter dish (I guess it's supposed to find the 110 and the 129) and the regular dish that catches the 119. Well, there are...

    Regional Sports Pak in HD?

    JohnH - thanks, where did you hear this? I haven't seen any evidence that E* has Hawaii locals in HD. Have a nice weekend everyone. I'm really glad I found this board. Emailing Dishnetwork is usually a fruitless endeavor, although occassionally it works. Will Honolulu, HI

    Regional Sports Pak in HD?

    So the regional sports chs. are in the 300s? I'll have to go check to see if I can see any of them on my guide. Again, Hawaii gets the shaft. I don't think the Dodgers or Angels show their games in HD anyway. But I want to see Pac-10 college football games on Fox Sports Net in HD (usually...

    Regional Sports Pak in HD?

    Thanks for the response We only get Fox Sports Net West as our Fox sports channel out here on Dish Network (even though the local cable company provides Fox Sports Net AND Prime Ticket). I don't see Fox Sports Net West in HD anywhere. What channel number would that be? What satellite is it...

    Regional Sports Pak in HD?

    I live in Hawaii and we get the shaft as far as HD content. I have the vip622. Once some of the regional sports networks (NESN, other Fox Sports nets) are in HD on Dish Network, will it be available in HD via the Regional Sports Pak? In other words, can I watch HD content in New England (of...
