    Not that much, really.

    Dish Network bids for Blockbuster at the last minute before the bidding deadline.

    At times I wonder if Charlie wakes up and asks "what should I buy today? That sling thing looks good" or "they closed my local blockbuster, must buy it!", "DBSD North America, Dish Network offers $1 billion to buy a bankrupt satellite/antenna company for reasons only it knows"...

    Be aware, DISH may be roaming your neighborhood . . .

    I agree. Giving "someone" the tour of the property is a no-no. And although you wanted to be pleasant I believe you justified your questions above and beyond normal to unidentified people. Blaming Dish for something that may have nothing to do with them is a bit far fetched. Casing is...

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    I used to like Dish because they offered specialized channels. Then they got rid of them and, at that time, promised they were bringing something NEW instead, which ended up being the same old SD channels in HD. Equator HD, world sport HD, and others disappeared, but then we got CNN HD. Woo...

    Bold statement, but you are right. There are only two sat companies. ?

    Cancelling Dish is it Easy?

    As long as you have paid your bills on time, don't want the $10.00 off and 3 ppv freebies and you're not within contract, canceling is easy. What I don't understand is, do we pay one month in advance for sat service, and if so how come there is no refund, and why is there a "pay the amount due...

    Long DISH customer, changing to DIRECTV probably

    I don't understand what the big deal with the pause button is. I have never used it. Nothing is so important on tv that I would need to pause, even if I had to rush to the ?. I also don't understand why one would want to record four channels at the same time, with so many reruns and such. Who...

    Convince me to stay with Dish / Tell me where I am wrong

    I stand corrected. I thought the 625 worked that way. My mistake. ?

    Convince me to stay with Dish / Tell me where I am wrong

    Same with E*. If you have to replace the DVR, your external recordings are also associated to the original DVR.

    DISH Network Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2010 Financial Results

    Like the one where Charlie says something like "are you tired of paying for channels you don't watch, like those commercial channels?". I laugh every time. All the CSRs look very "American" in those ads. Nothing like 24 hours of buttery "turn the tub around", or Axe, or the others that keep...

    Call from Dish to upgrade equipment.....

    I got the email too. It is legit. You probably have 2 dishes. One pointing to (110, 119) and the other to 61.5. And/or you probably have a 625 dual receiver.

    Just ordered Vip722k DVR

    Make sure the code setting on your remote matches the code on the receiver for TV2. Set the remote to UHF if the receiver is in another room. IR can't travel through walls. Make sure cable going to your tv connects to tv2 output on receiver.

    GolTV-HD Rumor - Will it ever come back to DISH?

    You're not even paying for dish. Lose the attitude.

    Audio drop outs

    Using the Grammys to monitor dropouts, with the potential live censorship and 8 minute delay isn't the best example to use. Could be dropouts, could be silence. I associate dropouts to "hiccups" in the signal.

    Why doesn't Dish Network have Local on the 8's?

    I've never seen local weather on the 8s SD or HD on dish. It's always been national radar.

    Just a friendly warning about DishStore.net/Metro25's rebate scam

    First time I've ever heard of having to pay to receive a rebate. That's asinine.

    HD Channels; 4:3 --> 16:9 Stretch

    The excuse is that "I paid $$ for a whatever inch TV and I don't wanna see no black bars" as I was told once.
