    Limited to 1 HD DVR per install?

    Hello, Wondering if anyone can help me based on their Dish experience. I just called customer service and they told me they only allow 1 HD DVR (622) install per household. They said that if I wanted an additional HD DVR install I would have to buy it separately and either install myself or...

    Can you post those screen shots (of the programming guide)? When are they rolling it out (this summer?)I went to the Verizon experience store over the weekend to check out the DVR. Not that impressed, but if they're rolling out something soon in the way of upgraded DVR, I'm very interested...

    PIP on the 622

    Hello, Recently i was talking to a sales rep about pip on the 622 and he said pip is not dependent on the TV, that the PIP on the 622 is just splitting the signals. Is this how it works? Any info about PIP on the 622 would be great. I had PIP on a TV and loved it (granted, pre-dvr days). Do...

    Interested in Dish-few questions about the service

    bderouen , Thanks for information. I have a question about #5, as it seems you contradicted JimK2. Are you telling me no connection is needed between the two boxes in the house (JimK2 said a coax has to run between the two boxes, inevitably through the house)? Also, the RF video extender JimK2...

    Hello, I'm a DirecTV customer, but I'm seriously thinking about coming to Dish, in part for the 622. However, I have a few questions about the service and Dish hardware. Thanks in advance if you can enlighten me. 1. Do the DVR's have to be hooked up to a phone line? DTV has this to, but...

    Questions on Dish Installation (different than previous questions)

    Hello, First of all, thank you in advance for taking the time to read and possibly answer the questions in this post. I am at the end of the road with DirecTV (their poor MPEG4 introduction, with no upgraded DVR features looks to be the last straw), and am seriously looking at the 622 with...
