    DVR HD Does it require a Phone Line?

    Just ordered direct tv again and switched from DISH--was advised by two people there that you have to have a land line hooked up to the DVR in order to use it. So I ordered the the HD receiver instead due this requirement. I use a Cell phone for my home phone so I do not have a land line. Can...

    Temporary Fix for Dish 811 Channel 1.1 Mapping Problem

    Thanks Scott for the info. I live in the Milwaukee area too. I tried your fix --but I pushed the save key right after I keyed in 46 and got 46-01 46-02 46-03. 46-02 is the correct ch for regular CBS programming. I am able to keep the channel even when I change channels. Thanks again for the...

    Dec 16th Retailer Chat Report

    Scott, was there any mention about the changeover kit for the 105 superdish--to change it over to the 121. A local retailer here in the Milwaukee area is going to install a 105 Superdish for me this week and then when the kit is available change it to 121. He says that getting the DISH up now...

    Would you pay more for more HD content?

    I would like more HD content. I feel that there should be more channels included in the first pack. I don't thing DISH would include HDPPV ($5.99) each in this package. I think your 12 pack should be the $9.99 package and Tier up from there.

    811--Just ordered my receiver from DISH for $149

    I would call again and tell the CSR to check their computer. The only reason I was able to order through DISH was because I ordered from them originally. If you ordered through retailer you need to call them. Good luck.

    FLASH: Dish 811 now $199 for Existing Customers!

    They do charge you immediately. Mine has already been charged and credited on my online DISH account, I was asked if I wanted cc autopay and I said no because I pay with paypal. Don't know about the one receiver--only needed one.

    811--Just ordered my receiver from DISH for $149

    I just called DISH and ordered my 811 Receiver to replace my 6000u. It will be installed tomorrow between 8-12n. It only cost $149 with no cc autopay. Too bad I didn't know about this last month when I bought the 6000u.

    What's a good reading for the 105 bird with Superdish?

    Madison WI has the Superdish and hopefully Milwaukee WI (which is due east of Madison) should get them by the end of December . Green Bay was taken off 105--farther North Since this has such a low signal--won't this cause problems with the HD channels???

    NAB/FCC Block HDTV SuperDish?

    Scott, did you hear of any new HD channels going to be added in December to the 105 slot? I bought a 6000u (for $149) early in November and have been very happy with it. Looking forward to getting more HD content ASAP and hopefully my Milwaukee locals. Thanks, Tom

    Is there a list of which 10 locals--by end of year?

    I know what Charlie said on the last chat about hoping for 100 by the end of the year. That should mean 10 more after today. I hope that Milwaukee will be one of them. On the list so far (with a date): (http://ekb.dbstalk.com/19) Chattanooga, TN...

    811 vs 6000

    Just got off the phone with DISH again. Decided to wait until the 811 because of the extra cost ($81.47) for the legacy adapter when I get my Superdish down the road. Also, thinking of getting another receiver to replace my 3700 when I get the Superdish due to the cost of this adapter. Thanks...

    811 vs 6000

    I am getting impatient waiting for the 811 receiver to come out. I would like to know the main differences between the 811 and the 6000. I can get everything I need for $149 for the 6000 which is big savings over the $399 for the 811. Any suggestions and comments would be greatly...
