    Ohh Dish :-(

    Well. First of all, my story, is a compilation of several situations that occurred. I did not go into the die hard details of every phone call and actions taken. BigThrust, your reply is appreciated and since you are not familiar with everything that occurred you are most certainly entitled...

    Ohh Dish :-(

    Well. They lost my business, again. Short abbreviated story: Dish Customer for about 15 months. Called mid-January to cancel after deciding to give local provider Comcast a chance and save some money. Sent boxes and LNB'S to Dish as requested by account specialist and got a prompt...

    Dish allowed me to return !!

    Well guys, after a not so very bright decision to switch from Dish to my local cable provider (Adelphia/Comcast) (Related post http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=89182 ) I eventually managed to speak to an account specialist/CSR at Dish to kindly ask to be able to come back without...

    Pardon my ignorance....

    Dish is advertising that they will soon be offering Starz HD as well as National Geographic HD as well some other HD channel. Does anybody know the timeframe on this ? Thanks.

    Voice running a microsecond behind on my 211.

    I know this must have been discussed somewhere in this forum, but, if you will , bear with me. When watching my 211 receiver I noticed that the voice coming out does not quite match what's coming out of the actor's voices. It seems to be about a microsecond behind and it is pretty annoying...

    I hope this is not a dumb question.

    I always do a weekly "Test Switch" and all my receivers (I have a 211,622 and 625). All the time they are successful. This morning I tried thia once again, however I was at the satellite point dish page and decided to cycle between the satellites Im supposed to get (119,110 and 61.5 which...

    Dish 1000 and Florida...why not ?

    Cool. I see, thanks BFG and GeorgeLV, now....if only E* CSR's knew this, they kept saying I needed a Dish 1000 when I upgraded to a 622 and a 211. I guess I'll give them the benefit of a doubt since the Dish 1000 covers just about anywhere else except FL and the NE states and south TX.

    Dish 1000 and Florida...why not ?

    Thanks GeorgeLV, however even if I leave the dish 500 I have for the mirror 61.5 would I still be able to make the 1000 work? Remember what I said about the dish ability to see up to a 1000 channels. Would a 1000 work nevertheless?

    Dish 1000 and Florida...why not ?

    I've seen the footprint map for the Dish 1000 and see where FL lies in the shaded (not covered) area. I've researched and have found out that the Dish 500 is named like this because it is "enabled" to recieve up to 500 channels and, by the same token, the Dish 1000 is "enabled" to recieve up to...

    Question about my E* Bill.

    So, how does this billing in advance works? Do you pay your first month in advance or how? My bills are coming pretty high. With all my services and fees I'm paying (or supposed to be paying) about $145 a month plus tax. Is this what I'm about to see every month or is it twice that ? , although...

    After the ordeal to get my 622 and 211 installed here's how it looks!!!

    ROTFL.... Actually....GaryPen, that stack is sort of temporary. The 8 ft HDMI cable resulted to be a little too short for this set-up and barely gives me any slack to reach the HDMI splitter you see on top. The plan is to place this equipmentt in glass shelves on the wall below the Plasma TV...
