Amen......and we need Speed HD in time to watch Rowdy Busch dominate the All-Star Race!!!!

Yeah, that was why I asked in the first place. It seems everyone else can figure out how to show these games except for good 'ole E*. I don't even like the Braves that much. I just like to keep up with everybody else.

I noticed it was uplinked in HD. Is that only for Atlanta? I'm in Birmingham, and I was wondering if we would get it regionally. TIA.

Ok, first, is there a phone number you can call to ask complicated questions? These installers can't seem to get this right...... The problem: I have two coax cables coming to my garage from my two dishes (I have a 500 and a 300, the 500 has a DP34-500 on it). Now I want to add another 622...

OK, it sounds like cascading another dp34 would be easiest. Can you tell me exactly where it should be hooked up? TIA.

I had my 2nd 622 installed Monday. I had a 622 and a 301 before. I have two dishes: a 500 for 110/119 and a 300 for 129. So I have two cables coming down to my garage. The guy brought a "3-4 switch" to hook it up with, but he said it didn't work. He said he had to "trick" it to get it to...

Thanks a ton, man. Got it.

I can't find 129 with my Dish 300. I'm moving it from 61.5 to get my HD RSN's. Anyone know where I can get reliable azimuth and elevation angles? Dish can't give them to me because they only have them for Dish 1000's (or so they say). I have a Dish 500 pointed at 110/119, so the Dish 300 for...

Ok, I spent an hour this evening trying to repoint a dish 300 from 61.5 to 129. I used one of the websites to get elevation and azimuth numbers. I can't get any signal. Is there some trick to this that I'm not getting. I have a couple of questions: Do I need to skew a Dish 300 with one...

I need to repoint too.....I'm in Alabama and my RSN is on 129. I have a dish pointed at 61.5, but I can't seem to get peak angles for 129 off of either of my receivers (a 622 and an old 301). How can I get the angles? TIA.

I live in Birmingham, AL, and I have two dishes. One dual lnb pointed at 110/119 and one single lnb pointed at 61.5. Would it be worth it for me to go ahead and move the 61.5 to 129? Are the Voom channels mirrored on 129? I don't think I would lose anything, would I? Will the B'ham locals...

I just realized that my 622 does not display caller ID. My 811 always did. I've had for a few months now and it has always worked great. I searched around the menus to see if there was some way to activate it and couldn't find anything. I even did a hard reset and it didn't help. Any ideas...

I just lost 110 here in Alabama. I don't think the weather in Cheyenne is affecting me. I'm also glad it's not just me.

I wonder how far away Birmingham is on that list........since it isn't even on the list yet.

Doesn't that give you 30 men on Contra? I'm sorry......that was too good to pass up.

I already have that..... I'm already subscribing to the Dish locals. But I still have channels that only say "Digital Service" in the program guide. Only two of my OTA locals have program data. The other three do not. Do other people have this too, or do I have something setup incorrectly...

Is there any way I can get the guide data from the satellite channels put on the OTA channels? If not, what is the easiest way to record from channels with no guide data? (Sorry if this has been covered a million times, but I couldn't find a recent thread covering it) TIA. By the way...

Thanks..... Now I'm just counting the days until the dang thing shows up.

Thanks...... You're right. The D300 feeds into the LNB on the D500 and the downleads from the D500 go to my two receivers. There are no external switches at all. My satellite signals are all very strong. It sounds like I should be able to pull this off without waiting for the install. I...

Ok, I ordered my 622 and it is supposed to be installed on 5/24. The guy at Dish told me that the 622 would come "about 10 days before that". Cool. I have a Dish 500 pointed at 110/119 and a Dish 300 pointed at 61.5. I don't exactly know what kind of switch I have on the 500. They go into...

Ok, back in January, some of my channels stopped working (I got the "satellite signal acquisition in progress, press up or down to change channels" message). I called and went through the whole song and dance about how to fix it and the tech people couldn't figure it out. So they sent a repair...

Thanks...... I guess I'll go back to waiting to hear something about the 622 when someone actually gets one.

Well, maybe I'm wrong..... It says on directstartv.com that you get a $200 rebate on an HD DVR with a 2 year commitment. Thay may not make it free. It doesn't really say how much they are. They're probably $800 or something. I might call and see.

Ok, I have Dish now, and I would love to have a HD DVR. However, the mythical 622 is gonna cost $300 and may never actually arrive. So, my question is: Why would I not get one of Direct's "free" (with rebate) MPEG2 DVR's? I get my networks OTA and they just put TNT-HD on their package...

Hmmmmm...... I bet that guy with the chicken on his car knows.
