Finally got a HD tele.
I have a dishnetwork sub,and was wonder what it would take to get the HD programming.

I'm guessing new dish pointed at new locations (61.5/72/77)with new irds.
Anything out there that will replace the duos that are HD?

It all depends on what you want to do.

Are you wanting to tack on another 2 years? If so, you might be eligible to upgrade to a hopper and a new dish for free.

What dish do you have now? A 500 won't get HD.

I would definitely call Dish and see what they will offer you. You will need a new box and probably a new dish.
