    Signal/Receiver Help??

    And when you run diagnostics, it shows red under the 77, and 72.7 locations and it doesn't show red nor green or anything for that matter under the 61.5 location. And check switch gives that dreaded "Fewer satellite locations were found error" that last time required me to trade in my receiver...

    Signal/Receiver Help??

    Yes I did. It just does this randomly while watching (usually one of our local channels from the 61.5 location), and its almost like the receiver gets stuck on an infinite reboot trying to get signal from 61.5 when lord knows 61.5 is weak here in South Carolina. And I sure don't want to...

    Help with 622, or is it a clunker?

    I have an owned 622, not leased. As of the other night, when it powered down to do its nightly upgrades or so forth, it now will power up, fan will come on for a second or two, nothing shows up on the tv screen. I have unplugged, hard rebooted, held power button in, and it still does the same...

    Dish channel line up vs AT&T U-Verse channel line up

    Keep your Dish account on the lowest package, get Uverse and make sure the technician doesn't get lazy and use you Dish coax, I think the only thing you will miss from Dish is the DVR but Uverse isn't as bad as people make it out to be, really its a great service, just as Dish... but everyone...

    QVC actually has good deals on a lot of products, and products for the home and electronic techies like us... I have QVCHD on UVerse, and the whole screen is used, and they do NOT use the right portion for banners and such as they used to do... QVCHD and HSNHD is actually worth it, and they both...

    Which HD channel would you prefer to be added?

    AT&T Uverse just added History International in HD today. However, sitting here looking at it, it is stretched SD like its sister channels HistHD, A&EHD, BioHD, and C&IHD. Also, just FYI AT&T finally added BioHD and C&I HD. History International in HD will make some happy, it doesn't matter...

    Dish Receiver Lease Fee - Is it Back?

    LOL, no not yet... The only reason why I kept locals only is because I have the LA HD locals through AAD and was under the impression to keep them I would have to downgrade to the lowest package available which I was informed would be "LOCALS ONLY". And, unfortunately, if I don't like this...

    Dish Receiver Lease Fee - Is it Back?

    Well, I will say that I got an audit from the Dish Network Audit Team on my 3 receivers last month. My 622 is connected to the internet and the 211 and 211k is not and never has been. I have never been charged a fee for not connecting a phone line or internet connection. With this said...

    Programming help?

    So basically, the boxes will still let me view the AAD LA HD locals if I suspend the Dish account right? That could be a plus!! I figured the box would show not authorized if the account was suspended whether or not AAD was paid up to date or not...

    Programming help?

    Ok, so here is my small dilemma--and of course, I can't get a single CSR on the phone or online to answer my question without telling me to go on a contract for 24 months. They are useless but you all are not, so here goes... This Saturday, I am getting UVerse installed. I just simply...

    This cannot be good news for Dish Network...

    I don't find it suspicious. I am a Dish Network customer, but in the rural parts of my neck of the woods, you have the choice of Dish Network, Directv, and Charter cable. Word around here is horrible when it comes to Charter Cable. They say here, Charter is good for one thing and that is...

    AAD Price Changes

    Do you still have to subscribe to a SD city before they will let you get a HD city? Or can I just sub to LA locals only now? for 18.99?

    Any update on MSNBC HiDef 6/29?

    It is probably a Dish thing because coincedentally Dish has pushed it back to July 8, which is a Wednesday, which is also uplink day. MSNBC HD actually debuts either on 6/27 or 6/29.

    All American Direct (AAD) in HD $25 EACH? OUCH!

    Well, I was told that I am not eligible for SF SD locals because I chose to have LA HD, this is what 2 agents said. They also said that the FCC laws that went into effect Saturday made this decision. Bummed, paying $12.99 for just NYC SD then $24.99 for LA HD. I don't particularly care for...

    I am still hoping that these channels will be cheaper than what we been hearing (reading).

    Espnu or All American Direct distants in HD

    I wouldn't pay more than $10-$15 a month, these prices are ridiculous. I hope they don't get any business for trying to pull over something like this with all of us subscribers, whether we are getting distants rightfully or wrongfully.
