    changing reciever from 61.5 to 129

    No, it's still connected. I was hoping to avoid getting up on the roof.

    changing reciever from 61.5 to 129

    I had a dish 500 added last year to pick up HD locals. They are now on 129, so I have no need for 61.5. I can't get my living room 722 to go back to 129. I've tried a check switch and it didn't seem to do anything. The 622 in my bedroom is somehow using 129, but I can't seem to get the 722...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I originally moved from 129 to 61.5 because my locals started there and I got a much stronger signal from 61.5. Our HD used to drop all the time. I've got a 1000.2 and a 500. would they just need to pull the 500 aimed at 61.5? Has 129 improved?

    Clark Howard says don't pay!

    This is great, but where I live, all we get OTA is the 4 networks and pbs.

    Switch location question

    Sigh, thanks. Not sure how brave I feel because that means I'd have to run a line from the roof.

    Switch location question

    I have a really stupid question. Where is the switch located? is it on my dish (1000.2) would it be inside where the installer ran the cables into the house? Or do I even have a switch? I currently have 2 recievers. I'd like to run another line for a receiver for some testing I'll be doing.

    Anyone see this...

    If it's anything like what D has planned, it'll be a USB tuner. My guess is we won't even see anything about this until Windows 7 releases.

    Anyone see this...

    Saw that and I'm really excited. We used media center as our DVR before going to dish for HD. I'd love to get back to watching tv on that platform again.

    Tv is going in for service

    It's under warranty, so that's no biggie. if it wasn't, I'd be screwed. The repair guys think it's either a failing panel or board.

    Tv is going in for service

    My plasma needs to be serviced. I've got an old 19" i plan on connecting while it's gone. am I going to have difficulty viewing HD programing on the tv? Obviously not in HD, but will it down res the picture on HD channels to 480i assuming I set the res on the dvr to 480i? I'm mostly...

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    The installer that did mine was saying how horribly Dish has screwed this up. He's got a lot of customers in town that have no eastern view. There's also a lot of neighborhood covenants that prohibit a second dish. i don't know if mine does or not, but nobody has said anything yet.

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    I got my wing dish installed just a bit ago. Signal strength is very good. Outside of my locals, the rest of my hd is still on 129, which gets about half the signal 61.5 does. the installer was talking about pulling my 1000.2 for another 500 to get rid of 129. I'm the first they'd done, so...

    $59 61.5 wing dish for Des Moines, IA HD locals. Opinions please ...

    This is a disaster. the csr told me that he'd have to take locals completely off my account until the second dish is installed in order to prompt the install in there system. Is this right? that's unacceptable. Update: I played CSR roulette after I calmed down and got it sorted out. Not...

    Does the wing use the same mast or are they going to want to drill more holes in my roof.

    And no firm word on what they'll be doing with customers who are currently using WA and are in markets changing to EA? I really don't want a second dish on my roof because they've changed my service.
