    Thank you Dish!

    Exactly.. I called customer service and was told since i already had encore, starz, and hd platinum.. We were to receive 6 PPV coupons worth about $36 while ppl who did not subscribe to these get them free now?! I have no idea why we were not aloud to chose our anniversary gift. I don't even...

    Buying my own Receiver

    In my experience, its better to lease because if something does happen to your receiver (always happens) then dish will replace it no prob.

    Dish Thankyou Card

    Its good that they are doing something, but at least they could have made it for an HD PPV. Thanks, but no thanks

    check "details" for LNB

    Ok, so I am now getting this message in the a) Status: section on my system info. The receiver I have (622) is now losing the signal every few minutes and I just press guide or view tv and the signal comes back. I was checking about this online and dish says that I should replace the LNB...

    No Existing Sub can get Turbo HD?

    Does dvr advantage work with hd absolute or we just pay the dvr fee. Also if I was using the 510 I would still get the sd equivalants from the hd correct? If I changed today I would just miss my rsn's and G4. I also have WPIX superstation, so i would still receive those and my locals in SD...

    Are RSN's covered in Dish HD Absolute pack

    I was listening to the lastest satguys podcast and I think I'm sure scott said that the rsn's would be included. So a lot of people like myself were waiting for that. I just wish that g4 would go hd cause thats the only sd channel I still briefly watch. However I heard that it would cost more...

    received my dtv pal

    I got my dtv pal yesterday, haven't had time to play with it yet, but plan on doing it tonight. Anyone else get theirs? I ordered mine on Monday 6/30. Really surprised how fast I got it. Now I'm thinking that this will only convert the digital signal to analog right? The tv in the bedroom...

    Dtvpal webste/800 call

    I just called and placed the order. The CSR asked me for my gov't coupon and then other method of payment because the rest with tax and shipping would be like $25. I just gave my cc # and she gave me the confirmation number after telling me stuff I already knew. I thought it went rather...

    HD Picture Quality

    Isn't max hd still mpeg 2 or is that showtime? Anyway, I don't agree with you that transformers macroblocked, but still doesn't hold a candle to my hd dvd. I am getting a lot of pixelation issues on Fox Prime HD. Also, MHD looks really bad compared to my cable. The colors are all washed out...

    What receivers support the EHDD?

    Do only the 622 and 722s support external hdd or are there more? I want a cheap receiver that I can just hook up my HDD and watch it in another room or take it with me in the RV

    New 722 Model release date?

    So scott would it be worth it to buy the current 722 now or just wait for the new model?

    ABC Family HD?

    I saw episodes of Greek in HD on there. Not that I was watching it, but I was flipping through and it was HD

    FS Prime HD

    Anyone notice a LOT of macroblocking when there are fast scenes? I was watching the dodgers play and when the camera would pan, the screen would get all blurry with a lot of macroblocking. This has just happened recently as before Dish added these 22 channels. Do you think its just my receiver?

    Did Max HD West dropped the signal?

    The 622 is only loud when its reset, other than that I can't even hear it

    vip 622 vs 722

    Is there any other advantages to the 722 that the 622 doesn't offer other than more storage space? I'm thinking of purchasing one since I got my rebate. I don't want to pay the lease fee anymore. Oh is it true that the 722 has the ability to show hd on demand?

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    I'm really upset that they dropped gameplay hd. That channel had new programmaing every Fri and Sat for cinemaddics and raw play. At least every week. So many good game walkthroughs. Plus, if you didn't want to play the game, you could watch the whole thing on raw play. So many good games I...

    No signal on dish

    Just went to turn on dish since I've been watching digital cable and now I get no signal from all sats. I think I'm gonna try to restart the unit, but this has never happened before. The system is searching all transponders on all 3 sats and is getting no signal. This happen to anyone else?

    Overcompression on Dish??

    we'll just have to wait for the all mpeg 4 system. I'm sure that even compressed, should look very good.
