    Cancelling Dish to get Direct tv question

    Thanks for the swm info. I am in no hurry. I am avoiding "available soon." The main reason I am leaving Dish is their promise of local channel Fox 40 being in HD "soon." That was almost 18 months ago and has not yet happened. It may sound minor, but 90% of what I watch on local stations is...

    Cancelling Dish to get Direct tv question

    Thanks for the quick reply. The lack of external storage and offloading are not issues in my case. The 622 has 30 hours of HD space available which suits my needs. Is the Directv box similar? The need for a second coax could be a major issue.

    Cancelling Dish to get Direct tv question

    I too am looking at changing to Directv from Dish. Can anyone explain what "features" the 622 dvr has that the Directv box does not? The only item I have seen commented upon is the 30 second skip forward, which is a minor issue to me. Also, several comments seem to imply that two coax cables...

    Directv RSNs

    I am unable to locate Regional Sports Nets on the Directv site. Can someone tell me if they are included with some level of programing package or if they are a separate purchase? Thanks.

    Selling receiver

    I discontinued Directv about 18 months ago. I still have the Hughes receiver and access cards (original & replacement). I own the equipment which is gathering dust in the garage so I thought I would try to sell it. The access cards both have statements indicating that they are the property of...

    ANOTHER D* vs E*

    I may have reached "information overload." I am presently with Comcast Cable and trying to choose between Dish and Directv. I want one HD and one SD receiver. Directv is luring me back with some almost free HBO and Showtime for six months with a 2 year commitment. Dish is offering about the...

    Telephone connection

    Thanks. Since I have no need for PPV, I won't be concerned about a telephone connection.

    Telephone connection

    A telephone plug was needed when I previously had Directv. I can't remember why. I had only 1 TV connected and installed a telephone outlet. I plan on getting Directv again with a second receiver in another room. Can anyone tell me if another telephone outlet is needed in the second room?

    Switching back to Directv

    Thanks to this forum, I'll wait a few months. I had Directv for 4 or 5 years until about one year ago. Was very happy with it. I wanted to add a second receiver and perhaps upgrade my old equipment. They wanted $$$ while at the same time giving stuff away to new customers. It takes 4 months...
