Ah yes, now I made out the "Built-in Dish Network Satellite Receiver." Obviously digital, and obviously a recorder. Did Dish ever patent this thing? (You know where I'm going with that question...)
IIRC, The receiver was made by JVC... was called HM-DSR100RU and the original price was $949.95. It was very technically advanced at the time it was released.

I actually had one of these back in the day. It was essentially a Dish 5000 receiver combined with a digital VCR, and the unit was produced in a partnership that Dish had with JVC. The tapes were pretty expensive, but since everything was digital, there was no loss and the recordings were perfect (just like a DVR). Looking back it is pretty archaic, but at the time it was awesome.
I bought this same model when I joined Dish. JVC Digital VHS. Outstanding video playback & DD5.1. Then it started eating tapes. oh well. It was fun while it lasted.
The tape may have been expensive but all you had to do was drill a 7/64 " hole in the correct spot on an 'ordinary' tape and save a few dollars (after all tape is tape).
