Now that my annual package is up for renewal, I was going to lease a VIP 622 receiver for $199.99 lease upgrade fee and change from America's Top 180 + All Premiums + Dish HD Package + Voom Original Package + Columbus Locals to the HD Platinum Package + Columbus Locals.
My old costs were the following:
America's Top 180 = $550 yearly which calculates to $45.83 monthly
All Premium Movies= $418 yearly which calculates to $34.83 monthly
Columbus Ohio locals = $5.99 month ($0.99 more since it is not bundled)
Dish HD Package = $9.99 month
Voom Original = $5.99 month
Dish Home Protection = $5.99 month
4 Additional Receivers = $20 month
Calculated Monthly Total = $127.64
I thought that my new costs would be the following:
Dish HD Platinum = $99.99 month
Columbus Ohio Locals = $5.00 month (now bundled)
Dish Home Protection = $5.99 month
4 additional receivers = $21 month (drop 1 but add a dual tuner)
Calculated Monthly Total = $131.98
Minus $10/month rebate for 10 months
However, the DISH CSR insisted that I would still need to pay $9.99 month if I wanted to keep the existing HD on my 921 receiver. I have 2 HD TV's and was going to replace a DVR-501 with the VIP-622.
Has anyone else who upgraded to the VIP-622 and HD Platinum Package and kept their old HD receiver been charged $9.99 to retain HD programming on their old HD receiver? I have cancelled the upgrade until I figure thuis out. I wanted to use the 921 on my old HD TV but I did not expect to have to pay $9.99 additional cost.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

No problem here (in central Europe) with a 10-footer. Do note that 9.4 dB required for the lock.
The mod is DVB-S2 8PSK with FEC 5/6.

Just curious here.....then why is diesel so much higher out there than it is elsewhere. Bobby just posted $7.59/gal, locally it is $5.59.....that's two bucks difference.
The Charter/Spectrum tv app has been updated to make it downloaded with more tv brands. I recently added it to my LG Oled tv.

This thread is a place to discuss the 4K events that appear on channel 540. We are getting, at this point, one college football game a week. Let's hope there is more coming.

Now after reading this story I walked away thinking that this is being blown out of proportion because of the incredibly low numbers of those affected.....BUT....I've read posts by some of you who are taking this drug so I figured it was worth posting.
