    Cancelling Dish is it Easy?

    Thanks for the help everyone. I just needed a heads up so there are no surprises when I cancel. Even at the cheapest package Dish just doesn't provide value for me when it's not football or college basketball season.

    Cancelling Dish is it Easy?

    I am seriouslly considering cancelling dish. I really like it, but with Netflix,Boxee, Hulu etc. I just don't get the value out of it any more. I have a HTPC that I can record OTA TV too. The only real benefit I get from dish is sports. Since college basketbal season is almost over, and Baseball...

    Changeing Dish America Silver to Dish America?

    Correct I don't have cincinnati HD locals via Satellite, I do have them VIA antenna, I also have SD locals via Dish. I am not sure why they set it up like this initially. I am almost the same distance from Dayton, OH as I am Cincy so maybe my location has something to do with it. That and the...

    Big Ten Network 2 -Local Sports Pack

    Correct That's correct, dish refers to that as Big Ten Network 2. Does anyone know if this is part of the local sports package? I already have these, but I want to downgrade my service and keep big ten network channels I have, as well as fox sports. I am hoping to do that with the Local...

    Local HD Cincinnati??

    TNGTony your second assumption is correct I assume it's 1000.2 the dish itself says dish 1000 on it and it's a couple years old... How can I get the new dish? It is actually a new dish or an upgraded firmware?? Will this cost me $$?? I can't believe it would but then again!!! Bottom line what...

    Local HD Cincinnati??

    I figured out how to do it by going to System Setup then install then point dish. I chose 77w but I was unable to get a signal. It does not make any sense that I would have to point my dish to a different Satellite to get channels I pay for in an area that I live in. I am not saying you are...

    This morning the remote access feature was down for a bit. After it came back up I was able to access my dvr with remote access. I did not have to open any ports. SO it was a tech issue on their end.
