Bump Anyone ?

Its been many years since I was a DISH dealer and I am not up-to-date on the new tech now being used by DISH. We have recently purchased a new home in Florida that we will be using during the winter months only so I will be bringing down south my three receivers and then take them back to...

It's been a while since I played around with various dish's so just to make sure I don't damage the used 301 receiver I just got I'm going to ask about this. I know I can use a DirecTV single LNB dish with the 301 but what about the DirecTV 3 LNB dish. Are the switches compatible between the...

Does anyone know of any sponsors here that may have a used unit (BASIC unit) that will last for the winter. If you have not read my OP then please take a look at it before you answer.

I need to add a VERY low cost receiver to my Dish Network account for about 3 months and don't want to buy a new one for such a short time. I don't need a dish, just the basic (non DVR) receiver and any needed card and remote. I was looking on ebay and one person says the card doesn't matter...

Go into timers and deleat it

After reading this multi page thread I still don't know what I got from the new software (besides side-by-side PIP) except a few bugs.

DAAA for dumb (me), Sorry, it was 99 & 103, but the other question is "does DTV plan on putting any national feeds on 99 & 103, HD or otherwise ?

It is my understanding that the DirecTV birds at 101 & 105 are medium power birds and not the high power ones like 101,110,119 is this corect ? Also will DirecTV be adding national feeds to these satellites or just use them for spotbeam locals ? Thanks for your help.

I'm not sure why the 622 is not part of the Tivo lawsuit but in the event my 721 is shut down I will be ordering a 622. Will be needing one soon anyway even without the Tivo crap so I was wondering if it will work with my DISH 500 that has an old legacy quad that is feeding my721 and 5000.

What is SV ?

sloooooooooow. Is anyone else having trouble with the 721 running even slower than before the upgrade?

Mine is turning off, not on. I try to leave mine on all the time.

This time I did not even bother to call DISH, since I know I'll just get the same run-a-round. It's too bad that some of us customers have come to the point of just giving up. I am glad I sold all of my DISH stock yesterday before it tanked. Still lost a bundle of money (bought it at 50+) but...

They will have to pry it (721) from my cold dead hands if they plan on adding the DVR fee
