    SiriusXM vs. Dish CD...who's listening?

    I'll take the Dish CD/Muzak channels any day. Sirius/XM is too much like terrestrial radio with many of the same songs over and over. But when I listen to music its either CD's, .wav files or sometimes even good old vinyl.

    No Info Available on Guide

    No guide data on my 722 either. I even did a reboot and still no data.

    NFL Redzone

    Hope Zach can help you. Mary B hooked me up the other day and I must concur-the DIRT team is a credit to Dish and to Satellite Guys! Thanks again!

    Can I split TV2 signal this way? *Picture inside*

    One thing I found was that setting the TV2 modulator output to a lower channel help the PQ after a long RG6 run and a splitter. This is done easily in the receiver by going to menu-6-1-5 for modulator setup. Channel 60 was the default but I have had much better quality using 21 (TV1) and 24...

    Are Seagate drives still problematic as external drive?

    I have 4 Free Agents (got the 4th yesterday) with sleep mode disabled that I use with the 722 and I have been happy with them. The Maxtor drive I used for a while-not so much.

    DISH HD Migration off of 61.5

    They really haven't prepared for the migration well at all. This past weekend my brother moved his account to his new home. At his previous house (same DMA) he had the mixed arc setup-he just never got around to arguing his way to an EA dish-but when he called about the Dish mover program he...

    Redzone question?

    I had it in SD all last season as well for no cost. I guess it remains to be seen if they catch it this year. I will be willing to pay for the multi sports pack if I have to though-that channel alone is worth it especially here in NFL purgatory of central Arkansas.

    Only seeing 110 on both satellites

    Did you set the skew properly?

    ESPN classic now green in my guide ?

    Oh well, just another channel that I found myself occasionally watching that will be blocked now. Hope this change doesn't cause E* another lawsuit.

    More HD to move from 61.5 to 72.7?

    Any idea why E* is saying that Buffalo, N.Y. isn't in the footprint of the 72.7 satellite? I've been trying to get my folks upgraded and we are told they cannot receive 72 up there. Has anyone else had this happen? As near as I can tell from looking at the maps they should be fine. We have...

    OK who has been a E sub the longest?

    Got Dish in 98 after Prime Star folded and I didn't want D*. Per channel E* was cheaper at the time (and still is now I believe). They also continue to have more movie channels.

    Merry Christmas From Dish Network

    Consider yourself lucky then. I just found the penny charged this month so I did the online chat to check as well. The CSR informed me that the promotion was over and my penny would be refunded on the following statement. My Cinemax will end on 12/17/09. What can you do. Maybe I'll try...

    Dish Network Holiday Music

    It's nice to have them but it's too bad they can't bother to carry the Muzak channels in stereo (again). The bandwidth for audio only streams in negligible. They really don't sound very good in mono and for that matter the Sirius channels don't either with the digital artifacts in the audio.

    Maxtor One Touch 4 750gb Drive problem

    I've done a hard reset on the receiver several times. I wish I'd done more research when I bought this drive-it's got terrible reviews everywhere. Too bad, I've got old Maxtor drives-8 to 9 years old that still work. I'm starting to believe the drive may just be bad. Now I just hope there...

    Maxtor One Touch 4 750gb Drive problem

    I posted this under the EHD bug sticky but I thought I'd put it here as well. The other night we were watching an episode of WKRP in Cincinnati from this Maxtor drive and all was fine. Episode ended and we went to watch another one. Wife is out of the room on the phone for a moment so I locate...

    Average signal strength of DISH 1000.4

    I'm in central Arkansas and the best I get is the upper 40's on 72 and 77 and mid 30's on 61.5. Rain fade isn't too bad though, considering the numbers.

    722 keeps resetting ?

    My 722 has been re-booting itself much more in the past few days for seemingly no reason. Has E* spooled new software lately?

    switch to Eastern Arc

    I switched to EA for the Little Rock locals in HD back in November when they became available. I too had to have my SD locals deactivated when the order was placed but when I got the dish and did an on line chat to get the locals and DVR Advantage again I got the locals but no DVR...

    Little Rock HD Locals - Those Not Being Carried

    KETS Little Rock You'll have a lot easier time receiving KETS after the DTV transition. It is moving to a non directional signal with 26 kw on channel 7 from it's current 2 kw directional signal on channel 5. The coverage should be very solid at that point.

    Which Dish Will I Get?

    I ended up with a 1000.4 After one false start yesterday I ended up with a 1000.4 here in central Arkansas. The initial order was for a wing dish and a DP44 but the tech (VERY cool guy from Southern Star) saw what a wiring job it would be. In addition to being stuck with an inferior Dish...
