    Lost a bunch of HD channels today, please help!

    I don't know much about all of this stuff, but I'll try and tell what I do know about my system. Have a 722 receiver, used to have 1 dish, but I needed it relocated and they installed 2 dishes about a year ago. Have had flawless reception. Earlier today, I was watching Fox News HD, turned it...

    Going to satellite, very nervous...help!

    You are a bit confused here. Before you "try" and chastise me, let me clear you up because I thought was I said was completely obvious. I said the "site" seems "pro-direct". We are in the Direct "forum". I realize this, but I was referring to the site as a whole, just like I plainly stated...

    Just lost in comparing both services!

    Well, I talked to a couple people today. They basically told me to choose one and worry about LOS issues when they come to install. If they can't, they can't....no charges. The local HD channels is about the ONLY thing the cable company offers that's better than the satellite services. Not...

    Just lost in comparing both services!

    AWESOME IDEA! Thanks for that, I believe that's exactly what I'll do. I have been a bit concerned about the LOS issues, as I do have a few trees that could be a potential problem. Does anyone have any good suggestions on where to find someone independent to help me out? Thanks again! On...

    On Dish, the one receiver comes with 2 remotes (READ TWO REMOTES). It is one receiver, however you can use the 2 televisions completely independently. In other words, on Dish, I can have the HD/DVR Receiver in my living room, hooked into my HD system. The master bedroom SD tv will also be...

    Just lost in comparing both services!

    I started a similar thread in the D* forum, but am just lost in comparing the 2 services. I can't get locals in HD in either service and it seems there are some more hidden costs with D* further down the road. Especially on the lease of the receivers. I am hooking up 4 televisions. One of...

    Going to satellite, very nervous...help!

    Thanks for the reply and that link, masterdeals. Looks like HD locals are not available yet in my area. So what happens when my 3 months are up on the Starz/Showtime though? Am I stuck paying the $23/mo. for the length of the contract or can you drop 'em? I don't know, I see this site...

    I just did the system build at D*'s website. I understand that I'll get the $18 bill credit for 12 months and also understand I'll get the $23 bill credit for 3 months for the Starz and Showtime. I don't want Starz/Showtime, so after the 3 months do I get to just drop them and not be charged the...
