I have only tried it once, same result as you. Haven't gone back yet.

Go to Timers, select the program, Edit Timer, and you can change it for the program.

Holy crap, you're right. I set it up and never checked that it took. Just checked and nothing. I went and selected it and clicked Record This and it is now showing up in the schedule.

I am interested in getting the new Hopper 3 system. Please contact me. And thank you all for this fantastic service.

You know what would be great, an auto backup to external HDD option!

1. Favorite Features: Large DVR, multiple tuners, HD in every room, quick navigation of the menus (mostly, sometimes guide response to a button push can be slow). Auto hop is great, unfortunately it is only with the PrimeTimeAnytime programs. 2. Biggest issues: My biggest issue is when watching...

Thanks for the input MattG. You make Speedy Gonzalez look like Regular Gonzalez. I'll take any tips anyone else has. Thanks!

Thanks Indy. I have my eye on the Tailgater. But, by the time we got it back, we'd only have 4 home games left to use it. So, I think we'll probably just order it next year.

First off, thanks for any help you all can provide. We had our first tailgate last weekend (Go Iowa State!) and are preparing for one of the biggest of the year against rival Iowa. We’ll probably spring for the 211k and the Tailgater next year, but since we’d only have it for 4 games, figure it...

I had my install on Tuesday. The installer was Dave from Blue Sky. He was awesome. My previous installer never grounded it so he reworked the entire thing. The picture quality is very good. When I compare it to antenna it is nearly impossible to tell the difference. It is awesome to be...

Is it actually a wing dish? Does it attach to the current dish or are there new holes in your house?

Does anyone know what channels we're going to get here in IA?

They told me it was a new dish with new holes. But, that isn't what "wing-dish" implies. So, there may be some differences to what the CSR told me and what actually happens. I'd like to know for sure though, because my wife may be opposed to more holes. I don't exactly like it, but I...

I just got a call back from Dish. They said they are going to wave the $99 fee for installation because of my inconvience (their systems werent working well). I'm setup for an install on Tuesday, 10/28. Sounds like $59 is a good price. It's too bad they won't install EA for us.

Ok. Just got off the phone. Off topic, the woman that helped me, Jessica, was extremely nice and helpful. I asked about getting Eastern Arc installed and was told that only new HD customers are getting that. I didn't push the subject any further. But, I did ask if my area was a single dish...

Absolutely!

I live in Des Moines as well. I'll give Dish a call tomorrow and see what I can get out of them and post back here if I hear anything different. From what I've read in other posts, Dish isn't moving any existing customers to E.A. Thanks for post. I just got online to find out how to get my...

Thanks for the information. Good catch.

That makes sense. Something I didn't think about was titles. If Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Lord of the Rings were all avaialble, I'd probably buy one regardless of price.

There needs to be another option since we don't know when the BD players will hit a reasonable price. Purchase a BD player when it drops below $150. Or maybe a whole new poll for those still sitting on the sidelines: At what price point will you purchase a BD player?

Luckily the dish is on the edge of the roof so there is no need to climb on the roof. But thanks for making that point. You've just given me something else to worry about! We've had 42 inches of snow this winter already, lets just hope we get a nice sunny day next week!

Thanks for the tips guys. I live in a new development so trees definitely aren't a problem. My dish is located on the second story roof and I definitely can't get too it to wipe off snow. My wife is not fond of the idea of putting it on a post so unfortunately thats not an option. Anything...

Hi everyone. First off, this is my first topic on Satellite Guys but I've been visiting the site for a solid year now. So, I've come to respect the knowledge of the individual contributors here and know a few things about satellites. Enough buttering you guys up, here is my question. I live...

I was quoted yesterday that it would cost me $229 up front. Does anyone know why these differences exist? I have a 625 that I have owned for the last 18 months. What has it cost other people to upgrade to the 722? Thanks.

OK, I'm going to add HD programming in the next couple of days, so I can't see any of this for myself. Lets get down to it... How good do the new channels look? The HD programming, not the upscaled junk. How do the programs compare to the MPEG 2 channels? Thanks folks.
