    Old Dish Gold HD - no new channels

    I had Dish Gold HD (HD only package, which did include all HD , but Platinum) I just realized, that I'm not getting any new HD channels, which Dish has introduced for the last several months. After speaking to representatives several times, I realized that they do not add any new channels to...

    Note on RTVi and RTVi+ Removal

    There was nothing to watch on these channels, they are mostly oriented on elderly Jewish audience (former USSR origin), residing in NY city. More info about Israel, then Russia. No surprise, Dish has dropped them. Personally, I prefer Internet based TV services like Kartina.TV , far better...

    I'm dding another HD receiver, but have questions

    I'll monitor this thread as well. I also would like to know for sure, if 211 become a full DVR after the EHD fee. If it is, 211 will have another advantage over 622/722 - dish will not be able to ruin that hard drive by constantly uploading their On Demand crap, which they do now with an...

    Does Sci Fi Channel broadcast in HD?

    If Sci-Fi broadcasts only in SD, where all these great quality 1080i SG1 and Atlantis episodes are coming from? Binary newsgroups are full of them. Atlantis is up to 3x04 in 1080i now.

    Simplified DISH pricing list

    Another pricing option to consider: I own 811 and subsribed to the old HD pack+Voom only ( $10+$5+$5(fee))=$20. I want to add 211 ( regardess of ownership - leased or own) Will I still pay $20 (+$6 extra receiver fee) or such an addition automatically brings me to the new pricing schema -...

    Stand-Alone HD Package available Feb 1st

    Still not quit clear. I understand a point for a new HD only subscription. They'll have to pay almost twice of the current rate. What about the current subscribers? They'll continue to pay the current rate of around $20 as long as they use their current mpeg2 receivers. The confusing part is...

    Stand-Alone HD Package available Feb 1st

    It is got to be wrong. I'd assume the $30-35 value includes all the fees. The current rate is $10 (HD) +$5 (VOOM) + $5 (Access fee)= $20/month. My assumption is the the incoming schema will look like: $20 (HD) + $5 (VOOM) + $5(Access fee) =$30 +$5(locals, if needed)= $35 Correct me, if...

    Will you upgrade if you now own your equipment?

    I do not mind a new lease, but I want to keep my own 811. Otherwise, will watch what is currently available. Or wait, until FTA HDTV receiver will come out. :D
