bump.. Ordered.. Tech should be out monday between one and five :rolleyes: Anyhoo, what antenna works best for OTA?

what kind of antenna would work best?

Will dish install an OTA tuner for free or no? I have a 50" 1080p samsung DLP that the HD-DVR will be going on.. I also have a 42" 720p toshiba rezga LCD in my bedroom, but no HD on that one, as the wife wants to keep DVR functionality for our existing 522, but doesn't want to spend $500 on...

Well dish wont lease me two 622's, and none of the other carriers around here are worth a crap, so I guess im just gonna go ahead and get one 622 and dish hd package.. How's the PQ? How do I get national geographic HD?

Emailed the CEO address... If they can't do it, I'll just take my business elsewhere.

Alright I just called them and talked to the tech people (had to call through ATT/dish) and the lady was like "we can only offer you one HD DVR... if you want another, you'll have to purchase it at $549" pftttttt

I just bought two HDTV's... I'm looking to upgrade to HD for both boxes... The wife just called them and they told her it would be $180 in charges.. What's this for? Can I get two HD DVR's?? How much would that cost me??

Wow, just wow. No one really takes pride in their work any more, and it's truely sad!

That's weird. My 522 still records shows even in standby mode :dunno:

I figured out it wasn't my cables, or any other A/V equipment when I could switch over to my xbox and have zero static... Pretty simple test :p Have you tried email to the CEO address for dish? I hear that gets crap done, and a lot better and faster. But yet, getting dicked around is BS...

It's definitely NOT the TV. The satellite channel in my son's room is doing the same thing. It's a 522 running on the TV2 tuner. Very annoying and stupid problem. How could dish screw this one up on a damn software release? Seriously! It started happening RIGHT after the 4.13 release :mad:

The box in the living room I dont use the 2nd tuner on, but I have been watching a show, and randomly have completely lost sound as well. If I rewind the show, sound is magically back! Arg! The popping and static frustrates me to no end. I'm very picky about my TV viewing, and the static...

Hm. All I know is, that once I get the static, if i turn off the receiver and turn it back on, the static goes away for quite awhile. The weirder thing is, the static usually only happens if i've paused a tv show and unpaused it. If I dont pause it, I usually dont get any static! This...

Mine's done that a couple times on recorded shows... Volume just disappears.. If I rewind the show, the volume comes back, and i can hear the parts i missed before... WTF is wrong with dish? Why is my audio staticy now, when it never was before? It's not my a/v reciever, as my video games...

It's just popped up in the last week or so... I'll be watching a TV show and out of nowhere, the audio get's staticy.. This is on the 522 in the living room... If you turn the reciever off, and then back on, the static disappears for a little while. My wife also said she's noticed static...

My 522 and our 2nd 522 in the bedroom both do this, however, it's not when you turn them on... Sometimes the color just randomly goes out... It only stays like that for a second, so it's not too bothersome to me, at least right now.. the living room 522 is on s-video, and the bedroom 522 is...

True. I think it's ridiculous that the government lets this happen.. It basically stalwarts US technological AND economical advancement.

Forgot to mention the hardware in the first post.. It's a Dish500 w/ a 522 reciever... Not sure about the other stuff... It was a brand new install, so I think it was all DPP stuff :dunno: Now it's doing more weird stuff... For instance, my son was watching tv in his bedroom (using the...

Here lately, the box in my wife and i's bedroom has been going haywire.. Whenever we record a program, and go to watch it, it gets all blocky and the video and audio go haywire and make it pretty much impossible to watch.. And at random intervals, it says "part of this program has been lost...

maybe someone can tell me what the deal is with this? we have the same exact boxes, dish 522 DVR's... Obviously connected to the same satellite... But her box has cinemax, encore and some other subscription movie channels, while my box doesn't... we're not subscribed to any of those...

Hm... Glad to know it's not my equipment then.

This is correct. I use a harmony 880 with my 522 receiver. The only thing bothersome to me is that browsing the menus and guide and such, the commands aren't as fast as they are with the OE dish remote. I've messed with all the settings I could, and it still responds slightly slower...

Any ideas why? It's not fuzzy.. But anytime I watch Fox 4 (local) it has these little random white specs ALL over the screen.. It's pretty dang annoying. It's not super duper heavy like a snowy channel, its just little random white specs all over the place... Happens whether it's...
