I hope one of the more experienced pub members will see this post and jump here. dsclark, I'm not sure where your getting your information from, but unfortunately what you want is not the way it works. Not for Dish, direct, Cox, Brighthouse, or any other cable company I can think of. What you...

I don't understand why we should have to pay an additional price for our HD channels when we're already paying for they're SD channel. I know it has to do with new technology and equipment and other things. What I'd prefer to see is a an exact replica of current packages in HD format. For...

Can you not throw a third dish up there specifically for the 72 or 129 slot? Having three dishes might be to many for you but it's an option.

WOW, Almost everyone one of you who have posted a response to GoalieBob's thread have been somewhat vicious. All he was asking for was what he needed to do to get Dish to change his billing date, not advice on his budgeting or anything else. Yet, pretty much that's all he's gotten from...

Good Luck & God Bless. COME HOME SAFE!

Yes, Colours is a Public Interest Channel and this one of the reasons that they are not automatically included in the "Family Pack". You or someone in your household must have been subscribing to an at pack or requested the PICs at the time the family pack was turned on. And to: truckracer...

The chats are done live to allow us the customers the ability to ask questions to the ceo, those that are lucky to get passed the screeners. However though, I do agree that the customer service reps should be watching as well.

I don't own an hdtv atm, but I guess I should express my personal view upon this since I'll eventually have an hdtv. 1280x1080i or no i = it doesn't really matter to me. If you going to down convert the signal that much then you should just thow the channel into at180 and be done with it. It...

Do some research around here on the site. You'll find out that the 6000 is not mpeg4 capable. It requires a different chip to what's currently in your box. Also the call centers and supervisiors don't always know what's going on, they're the ones to ALWAYS receive the information LAST. Sorry...

Actually I think someone said above that KungFu and FilmFest will be merged into one channel. Just like a couple of channels that we have today are merged. For example Rush has content from WorldSport, just like the guy tv has content from comedy the channel I believe. So when they add the...

unless your locals are being broadcasted on the 110 or 119 then yes you will need a second dish if you sub to both locals and HD programing if they put the HD on the 129

mpeg4 is a compression utility. If you spend some time on the forum you'll hear a term called mpeg2. This again is another compression utility that currently dish and directv both use. The major difference between the 2 is that mpeg4 can compress more without video/audio loss. So for example...

Couldn't JimMcC just run a wire down to the tv where he'll have his 301 and input it as an antenna to the tv or whatever and then use a uhf remote while downstairs to control his 811 upstairs. That should work, right?

I wish that would've worked for me. I've got 2 receivers and when I reactivated one that hadn't been in the stream for well over 6months I couldn't watch anything.

Has anyone actually received the new dish home yet?

Dish does have a converter switch that you can use if your receiver and lnbs don't match up. But I would have to say that it's probably cheaper to just replace your lnbs and it's not that hard.

as far as we know dish has no plans to put any HD programing on the 105. There are RUMORS that dish may put HD programing on the 129 slot. As of today it has been verified that the VOOMHD programing has been uplinked to the 129 but is not yet available to customers. Today, the only way to get...

before the really nice design, this kinda reminds me of the site they had back in 2000

does anyone agree with me that dish should've removed the upper have circle/orb thingy when they removed the bottom part? Leaving it there makes the logo look a little stupid.

someone correct me if I'm wrong please, but if you want the best signal that you can receive on the 121/105 then you would install 2 dishes. A dish500 for 110/119 and a super for one of the sides. This way you don't compromise on any of the locations.

alright bad use of words, maybe I should've said PDA instead of making out. But in today's society even kissing someone is considered making out nowadays.

From my view point, most of u guys and gals are looking at this from the wrong view point(s). Let's try looking at it from these directions for a sec: 1)When 2 gay people are caught kissing or holding hands they are considered gross to straight people. The same with gay people. They don't...

DBS was somewhat invented to do away with motorized dishes. However, I must aree.

maybe, I'm just a little peved that echostar can't offer a dish that can look at 105 to 129. My locals are on 105 and obviously that includes a superdish, but that's only one dish. I then need a second dish to look at the 61.5 for HD. There's been so much rumors and speculation that 129 was...

this nothing more than another dish network smoke screen to prevent us from seeing that they have no intentions of offering us a ONE DISH SOLUTION for EVERYTHING.
