    Any way to add Sirius channels to HD Pack?

    When I went to the HD only package I just suscribed to Sirius. I use the home tuner kit through my onkyo. Sound is no better or worse than it was through Dish. Actually, like having the extra channels too... It did save me a lot of money doing it this way until the change the damn packages...

    Is my 622 dead?

    Ya, it worked once. Still can't get anything. Dish is getting a call tomorrow. Not real happy about this. Interesting that one more person has had the same issue. I'll check the SN to see if I got the software... maybe there's an issue with the new update.

    Is my 622 dead?

    Well, look at that! My 622 is doing the same damn thing. I've been out of town for the past 2.5 weeks. I get home last night from a long night/morning/day of traveling only to hear the whirling of my 622 with a quick flashing green light. Tried holding the power button in, tried unplugging...

    2008 French Open Tennis Will be on DishHome

    i checked the tennis channel website, and if you look at what they list as HD content... there isn't much :-( Doesn't look like they do a lot with the French other than a nightly recap, and that isn't listed in HD either (feel free to correct me, I just breezed through the tennis channel site).

    2008 French Open Tennis Will be on DishHome

    good info. back when I used to have D* they had the US open set up like this on one of their channels. I switched to it a few times to watch americans on outside courts. French open is my least favorite tourny, but i'll definitely still take a look. I'm waiting for tennis-HD to decide if I...

    I called to sub to Dishnetwork Today!

    Ya, when I called they promised me hampton-roads locals as well. That was at the end of 2006... After 6 different antennas, hundreds of different setups, and hours of wasted time screwing w/ OTA... I'll be thrilled to get the locals SOON. My contract is up at the end of the month, and will be...

    Why do I get audio drop out on only one channel?

    I'm no expert, but I don't think that's exactly true. When I first hooked my 622 up to OTA, I was having miserable time with the signal on one channel. I'd have a signal strength of 100 and 2 seconds later it'd be down to 50. I contacted the station engineer and he said it was a documented...

    Why do I get audio drop out on only one channel?

    I have this problem as well with one of my OTA locals. I contacted dish, and they actually sent me a new reciever. It made no difference, the new reciever did the same thing. In my area, we actually have a good station engineers that use the avs forum to talk to the local OTA users. The engineer...

    Hd Channels That We Want Now!

    ya, I had my box set to espnHD leftover from last night. turned it on this morning and saw the different graphics and espn news hd logo, "HOLY SH*T, WE GOT A NEW CHANNEL," came out of my mouth... then I realized it was just a preview on espn hd :mad:

    SatelliteGuys.US 61.5 HD Poll

    i want my locals. my ota has been a royal pain in my ass. I don't watch anything but network shows, sports, and sometimes hgtv and discovery. consequently, i don't think i'd watch too many of the national channels (don't watch them now). however, i think you are making more costumers happy by...

    Can the 622 output Optical and Stereo audio at the same time?

    Can't confirm slingbox... but I have the hdmi going to my A/V receiver, and stereo and video for tv1 going to my vcr. I also have stereo from tv2 going to my A/V reciever and then to "power" a second reciever for my patio. Just a note on using the tv2 outs: you have to have the 622 in single...

    I signed up for the 29.99 Hd Only Everything Pack Today

    I had a couple questions about this: can you order the sirius radio channels a la carte with this package, or at all I guess? And, if they add more HD channels in the future, are they going to be included in this package? If anyone has any thoughts, I'd appreciate it... I've been lied to by the...

    622 Audio Problem

    I apologize if this isn't in the correct forum. I've been having audio issues with two OTA channels on my 622. The two channels are the analog and digital channels of the same station. If I watch the channels for 1-2 minutes, the audio starts skipping and then goes out completely. If I change...

    Quick Poll

    need more voting buttons:) w/ the writer's strike and football coming to a close, my dvr's almost empty. at this point, if I jump ship it will be for whoever gets my locals in HD. my OTA is spotty at best. i still believe that dish will "catch up" w/ the d*. after all... they used to be in the...

    Dish Network 2008 CES Press Conference Discussion

    I appreciate your post. It's funny b/c when I look at the zoomed in image of the map, I get a totally different impression. Obviously, this shows how bad the map is (and the silence on behalf of dish!). I agree with you about Richmond, but if Norfolk was on the map there would be a dot closer to...

    Dish Network 2008 CES Press Conference Discussion

    ya, that's why I was asking earlier if it was the same map that came out during the charlie chat a month or so ago... b/c the pic on the ces forum page is very hard to see... the charlie chat map was easier to read, and it didn't look like there was a spot anywhere near Norfolk. *checked the...

    Dish Network 2008 CES Press Conference Discussion

    I'm actually wondering the same thing. Is the map that's shown on the other CES forum the same as the one that came out in the last charlie chat? It's difficult to tell from the picture. I see they are adding Richmond, VA which doesn't make much sense, b/c Norfolk is a larger market. I'd...
