    Your smart card does not currenly have authorization to view or order this program.

    I don't know if this is related but last night random channels were showing a black screen...sound but no picture. This was primarily on the HD channels but not all of them. Even those stored on my external drive were the same, black screen, no picture. I started to call Dish but decided to...

    How much longer will you be with Dish?

    I am a huge NASCAR fan so, since D* has Speed HD as well as Hot Pass, the only reason I haven't switched already is the fact that I own my 622 and love it and the ability to store on the external drive. Also my local NBC station is not in HD, some kind of dispute between them and E* I am...

    Time Change Glitches

    I set "Patton" (George C. Scott) to record in HD last night. Only recorded the last half. Not on again, at least in the next couple of weeks. Darn, one of my favorite movies!

    How many Dropped E*

    Standing by for a while but definitely would switch to D* in a heartbeat if they picked up VOOM and will anyway if Speed HD doesn't come along pretty soon.

    Revised Poll: Voom is gone - What Now?

    Wherever VOOM ends up...I am so there. Dish may not miss my $140/month but if D* acquires VOOM...adios!

    Can you supply at least one example of a news story reported by Fox that is not factual? I will be anxiously awaiting your reply.

    How many people have been denied the HD upgrade? Were you given a reason?

    The first CSR told me, and this is an exact quote after putting me on hold for 5 minutes, "We are not currently offering the VOOM package." I replied, "That's interesting, I am watching it right now." To which she replied, "I'm sorry, sir, we don't currently offer the VOOM package." So I...

    HD VOOM ers

    $5 a month my a**. Try $5 a month for the VOOM package, PLUS $5 a month for something called "DVR service fee", PLUS $10 a month for the HD package, PLUS another $5 a month if you don't have a phone line attached.

    Dish Deceives and Misleads

    I will give it a try but they told me I HAD to have the HD package to get the VOOM. Thanks for the advice, we'll give it a shot.

    Dish Deceives and Misleads

    Timm...my point is that I specifically asked the CSR "Is that the TOTAL cost for the package, $14.95" and he said "Yes." Don't you think he SHOULD have mentioned the extra $10/mo.??? Whatever, I have calmed down and will pay the stupid ten bucks because I want my VOOM!!!!

    Dish Deceives and Misleads

    I bought a 942 and subscribed to Dish for one reason only....the VOOM channels. When I called to subscribe, I was told by the CSR that I would have to have the HD package ($9.95) in order to get the VOOM channels ($5.00), even though I already get all of their HD offerings (plus more) on TWC...

    Possible to hide 942 recordings?

    Now let me get this straight. You are watching movies in the bedroom that you wouldn't want anyone to know you recorded. Is that correct? Now don't you think maybe that might be a SIN? And maybe that show you recorded might have been produced by SATAN????

    Bring Back The 921 Forum

    Radio Shack is a great outlet for Dish. NOT!! I called 3 local Radio Shacks about buying a 942 and all 3 said they only sold the 921 and had never even heard of a 942. Duh! None of them had ever heard of VOOM either. Double Duh!

    921 vs. 942

    Thanks so much. That's what I needed to know. I am going for the 942 and did confirm you must subscribe to the Dish HD package first (which I don't need since I get all the channels via cable) and THEN you can add the VOOM channels. Oh well, it's worth $15 a month to me to get the 10 VOOM...

    921 vs. 942

    After Voom ended, I switched to TWC and am very happy with their HD lineup, HD-DVR, and PQ. But now that Dish has some of the Voom channels available, I want to subscribe just for the Voom package, I really miss Monster, Rave, and Equator. I understand I will also have to get their HD package...
