Thanks for your reply. It is true that a netbook can produce an excellent standard definition picture. In the windows world, the Sling website lists as a minimum requirement for a standard definition picture a Pentium 4 processor (I think the lowest speed for a Pentium is 1.3) but for high...

The Sling website says that the minimum computer requirements for a mac include an Intel 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo Class Processor. The mini comes with either a 2.4 or 2.66 Class Processor. Is this a problem? Does it work anyway? Or will it only work for standard definition slinging and not for...

I have Eastern Arc and am in the NY DMA. I just checked and am receiving all of my locals (both HD and SD) over 61.5 without a problem. I have had Eastern Arc for about three months now and have never had the problem you describe.

I only have Eastern Arc. My guide goes through noon on Friday, December 5. Isn't that the full guide (around 9 days)?

My signal levels on transponder 25 are: 61.5 71 72 57 77 47 I am located 30 miles north of New York City.

When I had Eastern Arc installed, one of my receivers did not receive the programming from 72.7. It did not have the new smart card. Ultimately (after having talked to numerous people at Dish who told me the new smart card was not required), I found someone at ceo@echostar.com who understood...

I have been a Dishnetwork subscriber for over 10 years. I am now on Eastern Arc. I can access channel 100 but the only thing that works is News/Weather. I get the same message as you when I try to access change programming on Dish’s website. But this has been the case for some time – even...

Thanks for the information. I will try this out.

Neither of my receivers has an external smartcard. They both have the internal one that is inside the receiver and cannot be removed.

I am partially in the same boat as you are. I recently had Eastern Arc installed. One of my receivers has the new smart card and the other does not. You will be able to receive the HD programming on 61.5 and (I think) one HDNet channel on the other satellite. As to getting a new smart card...

I think you can determine if you have the new smartcard by doing the following: Press menu on the remote. Sytem setup (6) Installation (1) System Info (3) Next Next If the DNASP is 241, you have the new smartcard. If it is lower than that (206), you do not.

I have been a Dish subscriber for around ten years but have only been able to receive 61.5 because of line of sight issues. I had an EA dish installed two days ago. One of my receivers is new and has the new G3 smartcard. I am located about 30 miles north of New York City and am receiving a...

I finally got around to having the new dish and 622 installed. Everything works perfectly. I think this receiver is fantastic! I bought the 622 because my 211 was crashing several times a week. The installer suggested that instead of keeping the 811 and throwing out the 211, I keep the 211...

Thanks to both of you. I think I will try to have a new dish (Dish Pro Plus) installed. Thanks again.

Because of trees and a mountain, I can only receive the satellite at 61.5. That is OK since I am only interested in receiving TV5 (the French channel) and the Voom channels. I currently have one 211 and one 811 receiver connected to what I believe is called a legacy dish pointed at 61.5. I...
