Got a new to me tv!!

[dishdude]

i will have to look into it my brain is foggy to.

I think you're right about the one being a rebadged RCA, I think it was the 34" CRT.

Older technology is usually built like tanks.

Let me introduce you to the 721. Great box. Poor power supply.

#1 I dont stream anything except youtube. #2 I hate the plain flat ui on the newer recievers being the H3. #3 doesn't have built in ota and only runs off dpH. Older technology is usually built like tanks. Also if there was a way to have at least my hopper 2 on old software (ui) from about 2016 or when before the updates i would use that a lot

i prefer the hoppers UI over dtv's crap!!! never had any of the older boxes except for the 311 in a business for music only.

the 921 dvr box that thing was ugly as hell to.. the H3 seems pretty reliable sure it has it's quirks when they release new software at times but that gets sorted out

back in the old rear projection days

I had one of those big box tv on wheels. I was going to give it to my dad when we bought a new flat screen back in the day and my brother n law didn't lock it down with the bungee cord in his flat bed truck and it went crashing down when he stopped at a stop sign. So we ended up throwing it away.


*LOVE my LG OLED TV. Makes all other TVs that I have had look pale in comparison.

This is what we had at our old house before we moved 8 years ago. HR24 had the good ui with the cyclone logo but now they update to the new one....and then we got spectrum cable in 2017

Anyone remember when dish was giving out big screen tv's when they signed up

I owned the Dish TV. It was an RCA 34" CRT. It was huge and weighed a ton. But it was my first High Definition unit.

Since my old 625 just picks up DishCD and SiriusXM would a 311/3000/301 get that

i think it would pick that up it's just audio. i don't think the dish cd channels are in mpeg 4
