    BBC HD needs a 3rd dish??

    I just got "upgraded" to the Eastern Arc also but The technician said I might lose some of my spanish language channels, which I did. Apparently he was not aware that you could have a 4-satellite set-up (neither did I until reading some of this forum). What he did was cut the cable going to my...

    Guide needs update too often

    The HD receiver is the VIP211. I'll check the signal strength when I get home this evening but when I've checked they are usually around the mid-point on the scale, whatever that is. Thanks.

    Will Dish get BBC America in HD?

    IMHO, Torchwood can be mediocre. The writing and plot don't seem to be well thought out. One show had a main character, a medical doctor who had come back from death somehow, was by the bed of a dying man and wanted to give him mouth-to-mouth to save his life and screams, "I can't! I don't...

    Problem having two receivers connected at the same time

    In case anyone checks back, I read in another forum that the LNBs are powered by the recievers and that when trying to reset everything you should also disconnect both receivers from the incoming cables. I did that for a few minutes and now everything seems to be working. I'll update later if...

    OFFICIAL: Dish Network Not Enough New HD Complaint Thread

    Hi, guys. Don't kill the newbie but I have a question and may have overlooked this in other threads but I show quite a few (13 or thereabouts) repeated HD channels in the 5700 range that I cannot actually view. I figured this was part of the testing before they actually put through new channels...

    Problem having two receivers connected at the same time

    It was definitely a splitter. I'll have to verify the switch and LNBF later. I was hopiing to get some direction here before calling. Those guys annoy me by making you go through all the regular stuff before getting past what you've already tried. Thanks, guys.

    What is this AT&T/Dish Info. HD channel?

    I would expect it more applies to the possibility of AT&T buying Dish Network. I've seen some information to that effect.
