    522 & the Broadcast Flag

    I'm debating switching over to a 522 (when it becomes available to existing customers) vs. building my own MythTv box. Does anyone know if the 522 is going to implement the Broadcast Flag? I dont want to have a political argument about the merits of the Broadcast Flag. I just want to know...

    EchoStar dealt blow by U.S. House Panel Bill barring two dishes

    I thought that press report said that this action was from a congressional subcommittee. That means that it still has to pass either the full House or Senate (or both). So it ain;t a done deal... yet. If you feel strongly about this, then it's time to write some letters! /Don

    301 IR Blaster Problem

    I think that I wasn't completely clear. My stacked system is working fine. The problem was that the Test function did not work if I invoked it with the hand held remote control pointing at the system. If I pointed the remote at the ceiling then the Test function worked fine. /Don

    301 IR Blaster Problem

    Hey, I figured it out! One of the codes from the manual does work, but the Test function was failing if the remote was pointed directly at my entertainment center (the satellite receiver is on top of the VCR). If I invoked the Test function while pointing the remote at the ceiling everything...

    301 IR Blaster Problem

    I'm trying to get my 301 receiver to control my Toshiba M671 VCR. Here's what I did: 1. I used the Dish universal remote to find a three digit code that would control the VCR. No problem, the first one listed in the 301 manual worked (the others did not). The universal remote could command...

    Problems After SuperDish Upgrade

    My dual 301 system was upgraded yesterday from a Dish500 to a SuperDish. Now I'm noticing that Channel 204 isn't coming in on one of the receivers (lost transponder message). It's working fine on the other receiver, although a couple of the new International channels (free previews?) are...

    Locals come to Rochester, NY Thursday

    I guess that someone at Dish jumped the gun, because I called them about ten minutes ago and a CSR took my order. My SuperDish upgrade is scheduled for this coming Saturday! Good bye, Time Warner!!!!! /Don

    Two follow up questions: 1) Do I have any options if I use non-Dish installed equipment? 2) What is NLOS? Thanks, /Don

    Dish 500/300 Combo for Rochester, NY?

    I'm also interested in the Rochester locals, but am concerned about switching to a SuperDish because I have some minor obstructions that partially block my dish 500. I have heard that switching to superdish will lower the signal strength on the other two satellites. I'm not opposed to...
