    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    From a business standpoint, does that make any sense? How many subs actually have a dish pointed at 148? I understand that only a fraction of the total sub base will be ordering this fight, but still, the percentage of these subs who have a dish looking at 148 must be slim... Scott...

    Dish network south of the border

    I am in Cancun Mexico nearly year round, and I pay my bill as always via CC-Autopay. I do not believe that Dish would allow you to *move* out of the country, so don't ask. Just bring your receiver with you and hook her up on board. The 1.8 mt dish you have should work for 119, 61.5, and perhaps...

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    All personal opinions aside, does anyone have an answer for my question? I could care less what he has done in his life, his mistakes, his idiocy, the man may be crazy and have poor verbal skills, but he does know how to sell himself. He may never be considered one the best ever, but he puts...

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    I called Dish, 5 times, speaking with 5 different CSRs, each one told me it 'might' be available on 110, one even told me they may add an HD channel in the 450 range to show the fight on HD. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    On Dish's PPV ordering page it lists the HD broadcast to be on 148, channel 9428. Will it also be shown from 110, on the HD events or HD PPV channel? Thanks

    Service in Mexico?

    The 10 footer (3.1 Meter) dish I use for 110 W is a BUD dish, the downfall is that they do not make a dual ku lnd mount for this type of dish. The 3 and 4 foot dishes in Mexico should go for around $200 to $280 USD, if you pay more than that you are getting the 'gringo' price :) In Mexico...

    Service in Mexico?

    I am located in Cancun Mexico near 10 months out of the year, I have 3 dishes ranging in size from 3 feet to 10 feet. In Mexico City you can use a 3 footer for most of the programing, for the 110 sat you will need around a 7 footer. The 3 foot dish should not cost you more than $250, and there...

    To HD or Not??

    I have a 60" LG RPLCD in the living room, the HD channels are amazing, I find myself watching things I would NEVER watch in SD. The SD channels look a little 'Blury' for lack of a better word, due to the size of the screen, but as Simon said above, overall I am happy with the PQ...

    Scott wins a 921 on tech forum channel 101!

    I have an idea... Why not raffle off the extra receiver, either the 721 or 921, with the proceeds going to the Satelliteguys donation fund?? If that doesn't work, you can always just give it away.....to me :) -CancunKev

    Problem with DVI connection....odd

    The 811 is set to 16:9, and the component outs look great, and as I said the DVI out cuts off 1/4 of the picture. Adjusting the horizontal settings of the tv only move the image over at most a few inches... I have no idea....

    Problem with DVI connection....odd

    When I connect my 811 to my LG RPLCD monitor via DVI, I only see 3/4s of the screen, and it is set to the left of the screen, the right side is simply black. I have tried to adjust the TV settings, but nothing fixes this...any ideas? Thanks

    Super Dish Too Big?

    I am in Southern Mexico, and I use a 3.1mt dish to grap the 110W signal, a 1.2mt dish for 119W, and a 90cm dish for 61.5. Even with a 10 footer for 110W, I still loose signal for about 6 hours daily on certain transponders. Kevin

    Dish 811 Remote Help

    Bub, I have 2 811's and was having the same problem, all you need to do is change the 'Remote Address' of one of the units, this way the remote will only control one unit. Take a look in the user manual and look for Remote Address and you will find the instructions, I remember it being...
