    Does Dish charge extra to install dish for 61.5 spotbeam??

    I have read here on the forums that my Greenville,SC locals have been uplinked and that they are going to be on satellite on 61.5. My current dish gets 110,119 and 129. Is Dish going to charge me for coming out and setting up a dish for the 61.5 signal? If so, how much are they supposed to be...

    Poll: Was L363 a screw-up to your 622?

    The only difference that I can see, is that my OTA Hd channels tend to drop out more.

    Why hasn't Dish uplinked the Greenville-Spartanburg-Asheville HD locals??

    I am wondering why Dish hasn't uplinked the locals for the Greenville-Spartanburg-Asheville DMA???? It has been on the list for quite some time. Trying to watch football OTA is a real pain!! Does anyone have any insight as to when this uplink might take place? Russ

    Black VIP622??

    Does Dish offer a black set top box or just the silver? It looks retarded in my AV shelf with everything being black. Or has anyone attempted to paint their 622. And yes I do own mine so I wouldn't think warranty would be an issue. Thanks. Russ

    I guess it all boils down to demographics. I own a vacation home in Charleston, and I can tell you that the people down there sure as heck don't talk any better than the folks in the Spartanburg area. Only the very well to do folks, have that "charming" southern draw. As for the hot dog, Iam...

    I would love to know who told him that!!!! From what I have read on here, it seems like the middle of fall is when we are going to get local HD channels. I think we are like 12 or 13 on the list, assuming they go in order on the list. Here's the list copied from this thread...

    Rave weak sound quality

    I thought The Dave Matthews Band concert on Rave sounded great! The bass from my $99 RCA 10" sub was really good. Another concert you might want to look for is the Alison Krauss show, very clear deep bass. Is your audio system new or have you had it for awhile? Just trying to figure out if maybe...

    622 OTA tuner not working!!??

    Tonight, I went to tune into an OTA station, and immediately got a no signal message. I tried a few other stations and got the same thing. These are stations that I usually get a signal of 75 to 90. I went into the menu to rescan the locals and it did not find a single one. It usually finds 28...

    Anyway to change from dual to single mode using remote on 622??

    Is there a way to change from dual mode to single mode via the remote on the 622. 12 feet is way too far for me to get up and walk over and push the button to change it! LOL This may have been asked in another thread, for which I didn't find, so I thought I would ask anyway. Thanks!

    My 622 came with composite video cables, 2 remotes, some phone cable, 3 or 4 different pieces of coax, and a line separator. NO COMPONENT CABLES!! Your better off anyway, Iam sure the quality of cable wouldn't be up to par of the Panny anyway. I also have a Panny (50" 8UK) and I hooked mine up...

    Ok, I just got my 622, and I'm dying to hook it up and see what the fuss is all about! The thing is, I only have a Dish 500 and I have an install date for April 1st.

Which switch is this? I really haven't seen this switch mentioned, I even went under...

    I currently have an 811, with the 622 on order (install date 4-1). Iam very much a noob when it comes to the switches. I did a switch test, and it looks like I have DPP, is this the same as the 44 switch? The 622 is replacing my 811 and a 625 in my sons room. When I placed my order the CSR said...
