    Is the 722 degrading OTA quality?

    I had a 722 installed the other day. While it pulls in stations much better than my TV's built-in receiver does (a welcome surprise), it seems that the video quality is degraded. I notice macroblocking mostly with motion. Is this confirmed?

    Suggestions for getting 61.5

    Hello, I have a Superdish and a dish from Voom. I am upgrading to 2x722 on the lease program and would like to get all the new HD channels (I'm on the old $10 HD pack). I have my old Voom dish, can I use that and self-install or is there a way to get them to take care of it cheaply or free?

    Should I upgrade or switch to D*?

    Former VoOm customer... I switched to E* when V* went down and got a 942 on lease and Superdish with the original $10 HD pack. I have since bought a new TV (Pioneer 6010FD) and its time to upgrade my HD content. Seems like this is a lot of activity in the HD realm and could use some guidance...

    Question: DP34 + Superdish + two 942s

    Hello, I switched over to Dish earlier this year. I have a superdish with a dp34 and an antenna for HD locals. I have one 942 hooked up, and plan on adding another 942 soon. The dp34 has two outputs that aren't being used, can I just hook up two RG-6 and run them to the new 942? Do I just use...

    Top 180 pack only requires 61.5?

    Top 180 pack + HD only requires 61.5? I signed up for Dish yesterday (942 receiver, America's top 180 + HD) with no locals. He told me I would be using a dish 500 pointed at 61.5. Is that correct? What would happen if I added locals later? (Since I found out you can't watch locals on TV2)

    Exploring my options : What do I need for...

    Former Voom customer... I have at least 1 HDTV and one SDTV that I want connected. I have a second HDTV but it can be SD, it doesn't get used that much (honestly don't have to have service on it but if I get a free 811 then...) I have an OTA antenna I want to use for HD locals, so I don't...

    WM9? No way, here comes H.264 ...

    H.264, your hi-def dvd player is going to be using it... Delivers a hi-def image at the same bitrate as a standard def DVD (6mBit)... Non-proprietary codec, open to everyone... Makes plenty of sense to expect this as the codec upgrade we will see in the future... Part of MPEG-4...

    What do I need to do for a Dish upgrade?

    Hello, long time browser, first time poster. I'm here in VA (east coast :) I have had a problem with SAT and OTA reception from day one. I was able to improve the signal by aiming the antenna myself, but it just ain't cutting it. I'm 12 mi away and all the towers are in the same direction...
