My HD-PVR is on its way!! I should have it Monday or Tuesday. I've been on the waiting list for the 921 since mid December, and finally will get an HD-PVR by just ordering one on Wednesday. The only issue is that since it will say Hughes HR10-250 Tivo on it, I will need to switch to Directv. I...

I was told that I would have to pay $240 to leave Dish Network. I have an 811, 3 301s, two SW64s, dish 500 2 duals, and 1 dual for 148. I think selling these items would cover the charges. I'm waiting for the HD-TiVo to be more readily available and I also want to see if the 811 gets a hardware...

Oakenshld, thanks for figuring this out for me. I didn't see the pattern. Yep, 48.2 was the last LOCAL I was adding. I have a few channels above 48.2, so I added one of them and now I have 48.2 AND the channel above is not included. I don't know why the dish support couldn't tell me this. I...

OTA Problems still exist I cannot save channel 48-2 KNTV HD in my favorites list. This is a weird problem because the channel will show up in the ALL CHAN list and the SUB CHAN list. But I cannot save it in the list that I want to save it in. I tried to save the channel in a list named LOCALS...

If you keep your legacy equipment, then you will need 4 spliitters (DC blocking) before the SW44 and add another SW44. You will not be able to add a splitter after the SW44 as this will prevent the reciever from signalling the SW44.

I never realized just how much simplier the DP34 was to the SW64 for an 8 receiver setup.

The problem with researching a product like the 811 is that each software release makes the 811 a much different product than the previous. It is difficult, to say the least, to determine which bugs are still present and which have been fixed when you go through all these posts. I think that...

It depends on the industry were are discussing. If we are talking about DTV, then we are referring to the digital signal that is sent to the TV. A digital set is one that can accept and process the digital signal. WLong was quoting this industry. If the industry is display devices, then you...

What viewable light source is not analog? I believe all display devices will need to output an analog signal at some point to accommodate our analog vision.

This only happens if you add a name for the channel. If you leave it blank, then you get the warning message. If you save it anyway, The "Display Locals" option doesn't change.

811 w/ P264LABD-N -> Top 3 Software bugs that I wish someone at dish had the brains to fix. SF Bay Area. OTA bugs. 1. Cannot keep channels 57.1 (maps to 4.1) or 49.2 (maps to 48.2). Add to DTV. Save. Add to favorites. View channel. Channel is removed from favorites and DTV channel list. The...

I don't know if this helps, but I signed up in the middle of December and am still on the waiting list. There are less than 50 people ahead of me.

I received a call from dishNetwork today. The CSR thanked me for being a customer, told me that dish would be adding 2 new channels this month, did a survey, and pitched a Cinemax offer. The call went like this. CSR - We will be adding 2 new channels this month. me - Great! What are they...

I wonder if some dish Engineer made an error when shutting down the HD signals that use to be on 148. Maybe the transponder that is being selected by the 811 is the defaut dishPro HD transponder and it is now 'off'. Or dish is testing their three HDs on a stick configuration and something that...

Here is the ABOUT US info from the www.sbche.com website: About Us As one of SBC's newer subsidiaries, Southwestern Bell Video Services, Inc. (SBVS) has been bringing quality television entertainment to customers since 1995. SBVS, under the brand name SBC Home EntertainmentSM (SBCHE)...

Apartment Homes Only? This seems to be an offer that is meant for apartment complexes. So I would guess that one of the pluses here is that you will not need to worry about having a Southern facing balcony and setting up a dish. Is SBC providing the satellite feed through the telecom cable?

Ouch! I think you have a twin lnbf on a dish500 and a dual lnbf on your wing satellite dish. If so, you will need to replace the twin lnbf with two dual lnbfs. Then you will need to run two addition cables from the dish and connect every thing to an SW-64. The SW-64 must have the power...

I'm in SF Area also, and do not have any problem getting 148. I have a dual SW-64 setup. I'm not sure of the distribution, but I believe that on one SW-64 I have the 811 and two 301 recievers. On the other SW-64, I have a single 301 reciever. I'm waiting on a 921 to make better use of the second...

If your car is a Yugo, you may just go aheard take the chance. You could end up walking, but it beats pushing that car around. :D -- Rick

Just hasn't shrunk enough to include me :( -- Rick

Here is another way to look at it. The 6000 HD receiver is still buggy and prone to occasional lockups. It has been out for nearly 4 years. How long do you want to wait? -- Rick

Sticky? Can this be a sticky? It would be nice to have a list of bugs on the first post along with software versions that fix the problem. --- Rick

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but using the guide, I did a page down until it scrolled back to the channel that had the mislabeled information. The information would change to the correct information. But, if I went to the channel and hit info, I got the wrong info again. Maybe...

Here is my release estimate/guess: From what I read in DBSTalk, Mark Lamutt has stated there is a bug "THE BUG" in the 921 that needs to be fixed prior to its release. Mark also said that the bug has been reproduced and is being fixed. So I am just checking...

Well the same installer that started the job returned Sunday afternoon to complete the job. I asked about the lack of Feed-through Loads and his response was that they are not needed with these particular splitters. And after he installed the secondary sw64, everything worked as expected. I have...
