    DIsh Network just called me at home

    India? My AMERICAN EXPRESS calls go there now. ps..the tv show "30 Days" sends unlikely people to spend 30 days together. The CSR who lost his job here moved to India, lived with the equal and worked in the call center. His judgement after 30 days? They desperately need the job, to the...

    Al-Jazeera HD: No EchoStar, No Cable

    You don't have to wait for arab media to see how we rate and how we accept our own media to provide accuracy. Go to Europe, go to South America, Australia, just get out, and read their papers, watch tv, buy a magazine. you might be in for a little wake up. and oh yeah, it's all of them, and...

    new Voom channels pic troubles..??

    My 6000 8/psk delivers three or four top to bottom jags on full picture mode on the new channels only. Other HD channels are perfect. If I shift to partial zoom, full, stretch, the jags go away. Any ideas guys?

    Don't let the status quo fool you, too (DVI on RPTV)

    agreed that DVI really pops compared to component. Interesting that only Elite CRT RPTV has two DVI inputs, and Elite converts to analog to process. No doubt a DVI switch is in my future for my new LCoS tv. Of course, within two years we will have high-end home theatre receivers with built in...

    6000 vs. SIR-T165 for OTA: no turbo prop and more...

    Hi guys. Santa was kind enough to leave me a new tv and STB. Thanks to him I got a chance to hook up my 6000 and a Samsung SIR-T165 for an A/B comparison on my local high-defs. Same antenna, split for both boxes. Cables swapped to be sure that they were not a factor. Lo and behold...

    Dish 6000 8vsb vs. Samsung STB for local HDTV

    For the longest time I've wondered if my 6000 was defective, my antenna needed work, my tv was broken, whatever. I even changed out my 8vsb in hopes of some improvement. Well, I now have a Samsung SIR-T165 STB, and the verdict is clear. I'm splitting the same antenna for both. When the...

    6000 or 811 quandry

    I won't be dropping another dime on any new equipment from Dish. I already have a 6000 and Charlie will have to pry my cold fingers off the remote before he gets another buck from my wallet. This is based on the reality of how Dish has gone down the drain. Sorry Charlie...........

    What to expect from locals picture quality?

    FWIW, my locals in Tampa are virtually unwatchable on my big screen. I rely on the 8vsb and my own antenna, and even there the analog signals suck. My local cable company keeps sending me bargain basement offers to switch. I must admit I had no idea that Dish uses antennas for their OTA. I...
