Ahhh...Thanks, was wondering why the add said "there maybe a balance due"... :) Thanks for the info, I'll get the CAID# and Smart card # and go from there. Does dish provide receiver upgrades? I've had this one for a long time, I'll give Dish a shout tomorrow... Thanks for the reply...

Whats the procedure to transfer from a vip622 to a 722k? There's a local guy selling a used 722k receiver and just wondering do I just need to call dish and activate it? What if there's a balance on the box or something?

If it was acticated and not deactivated you can use it as an HD tunner for you locals, however there's issues with some stations (wttw?) that will cause it to lock up. Mine works great when the cable is out... :) Voom is no longer providing satellite service via the voom reciever, they only...

Thanks!

Does the dish need to be grounded?

Because my comcast DVR is really a peice of junk, I can barely use it, works about %40 of the time, the rest it's either locked up, stuck, or working in slow motion. So my choices are; 1. My comcast DVR which annoys the hell out of me. 2. Dish DVR with crappy HD picture that annoys the...

Funny thing is this only happens at night, and other stations on 129 seem to be fine, seems to be a qaulity issue with dish and 129 and local stations. I'll run the second cable tonight and see what happens on weds.. The dish CSR tried to say I signed up for an 18 month commitment(Which I...

Funny, I'm having the exact same issues but with the Chicago locals. I called tech support and they blamed the HDMI cable, so I swaped to component and get the same thing. I asked what the dishpro error ment but they just said it was the cable. I'm going to remove the splitters and run a...

I've bee having issues with my HD locals, when I tested my switch from my 622 it says I have an "invalid dishpro switch detected, code 15,A1" under Satellite inout 2 Anyone know that that means? This is for a new install of a 622 with a dish 500

You can use the indoor antenna, mine works fine, however you still need to subscribe to the locals to get the guide info for the locals with the antenna....

My current signal strength is 91, however I still get the green squares and audio drop outs at night...

Seems to happen only at night, during the day everything works fine. My current signal strength for 129 is 91, but you can see from the picture below the picture is all messed up.. From the responses I've seen this is a common problem with Dish and their HD local service, guess I'll call...

Just happend again tonight, watched several hours during the day without any drops outs, then tonight 2-3 minutes of green sqaures...

Stick with comcast their quaility is better for the HD locals, or you can setup an antena since your close to the towers to get the locals, the locals will have audio/picture dropouts at night... :(

Yep, I get the same thing from my girl friend...

Allready do, my girl friend likes to record multiple shows(3) at the same time.. :)

I record a lot of stuff from the RAVE channel(which is also on 129) there never seems to any problems with recorded shows. Just with the locals.... :( It's not constant macroblocking on the locals, last night was about 2-4 times per hour, just enough to be an annoyance...

Yes, this is AFTER the dish has been realigned...Lost/law&order on NBC..

OK, I've been a subscriber to dish for almost 30 days and since I began I've been getting macroblokcing and loss of picture on my HD locals. I called dish, a tech came out and realligned the dish for 129. Now my signal strength is around 90 for 129 and things are better, but I still get...

It's barely noticable on the locals, however SCIFI Comcast vs DIsh is night and day difference...:(

61 DLP...:D

I still can't see any real difference between OTA and dish, I still get some macroblocking, but I'm hoping since I had my dish re-aimed that will be corrected(haven't watched anything on the HD locals yet)....

I just subscribed to dish this month and I've been having issues with Sat 129 so the techs came out and peaked my signals for 129, now with the snow I've lost all channels. My levels were in the 90s+ for 129,110 & 119, is this normal for dish? Is there a larger dish? I've had direct tv before...

I do, but I have the techs coming out to re-aim the dish for 129...

I can't tell the difference between ota and sat on my HD chicago locals on my 61 DLP.. :) They look the same...Very good, about the same PQ as my comcast HD locals...
