    corrupt / lost recordings with 622

    Thanks Hemi, I'll let you know - unfortunately I wasn't able to finish troubleshooting last night, b/c my wife wanted me to stop messing around with it so she could watch TV. BUT last night's recordings on the 'problem' channels' look better (still not perfect, but definitely watchable), so...

    corrupt / lost recordings with 622

    Good call Hemi, thanks - Tuner 2 for both channels drops from 90 into the 55-60 range, and has intermittent 'lock' on the sats. I'll check the physical coax connection now, but could any other factors contribute to a weaker signal on one tuner? UPDATE: the cable connections seem fine, so I'm...

    Hey everyone - Have had Dish for about a month and a half, and no problems until the past 2 weeks, when DVR recordings of certain channels are corrupted due to supposed signal loss (HBO HD, Comedy Central). This is even though these channels are fine when viewed live. The unit is a 622, software...

    Locals SD package required for OTA HD?

    I'm in Baltimore (no local HD yet) and just hooked up an indoor OTA antenna to my newly-installed 622. I can get the local HD stations without any problems, so is there any reason that I need to pay Dish Network $5/month for SD locals? The only thing I can think of is that maybe the guide/DVR...
