    Whole Home / TV Question

    I am upgrading to a whole home DVR system next week. I will transition my HR23 to my upstairs tv and have a new HR24 installed in my living room. My question is, if I use an RF Modulator can I connect the HR23 HD DVR to an SD tv? I believe this will work. I know it's not ideal but I need...

    Harrisburg PA HD Locals Question

    Can someone tell me what satellite and transponders the Harrisburg PA HD Locals are on? I am having issues with the sound skipping and video pix-elating. I posted my signal strengths before and the group thought it they looked fine unless I was having local problems with my local channel...

    Weak Signal on Select Transponders

    I just switched to D* from E* and am not as familiar with their terminology but here goes nothing. I have a SlimLine Dish with a single head AU9-SL3 that picks up all (three?) sats . I've seen other SlimLine's from D* that have a multi head (lnb) end on it but I have the single. The...

    What is good signal? (by the numbers)

    What is considered to be a great signal when viewing the signal strength on the HR23? I am in the upper 90's almost all transponders. E* used a different scale than DTV. What is the highest number on their scale? Thanks, Doug

    Directv Web Registration

    I just had D* installed today. I ordered through Verizon to get the bundled deal. However, the D* site will not allow me to register based on my SSN, Phone, and ZIP code. I do not have my D* account number yet (as far as I know). Am I missing something or just not allowing D* enough time to...

    Directv Installation Recommendation

    I am an E* customer now that is switching to D*. This would be an HD installation. The only reason I am switching is because of a tree that I cannot work around without too much cost. Verizon wants me to bundle and give me $150 Visa Gift Card with 12mo of free starz and showtime...

    1000.4 DIsh Problem

    I have an Eastern Arc dish (1000.4) with a single VIP 622 HD DVR. Since the spring a tree has bloomed and I am losing some HD Channels. I believe most of them are on 61.5. 72 may be fading in and out as well. 61.5 is definitely the one sat that is cutting in and out the most. Can I...

    Install Question (Altoona/Johnstown DMA)

    I am signed up to have Directv installed next week. I live in State College, PA so I get the Altoona/Johnstown Local Channels in HD. Will I need to have two dishes to get all available channels (including locals) in HD? Also, do you know what direct the dish(s) will point. I'm just trying...

    Eastern Arc Question (Harrisburg PA DMA)

    I have a relative that is a installer for Dish and is coming this week to install a 1000.4 wing dish. The 1000.4 will replace my 61.5 wing dish but he is being told I need to keep my dish 500 for 119 and 110. My HD locals are on 77 and all other HD programming is on 61.5. I have one...

    Harrisburg, PA DMA in HD

    Dish finally launched the Harrisburg (PA) DMA locals in HD, with the exception of CBS. I currently am not getting these channels because they on the 77 degree sat. I have a 119/110 dish and a 61.5 wing dish for my HD channels. Living in Central PA, the 61.5 dish was a must have over the 129...

    Conflicting Stories on 129 vs 61.5

    I know this has been covered in other threads but I am getting conflicting stories from DishNetwork and various installers. I had HD installed back in January. When the installer came out he installed a dish to point towards 61.5 to compliment my current Dish 500 that points to 110 and 119...
