    Buying my own Receiver

    Hello all, I just signed up for Dish back in October. At the time I had one HDTV and two SDTV's. Now were thinking about going out and buying a new HDTV for our upstairs living room. I called Dish and they want 150 bucks to upgrade my 322 receiver to something that will give me 1 HD and 1...

    SlingGuide Beta- VIP612

    My VIP612 has L602 on it. I signed up for the beta and after I put in the R# it just tells me that my device is not online. Now I can download things from DishOnline so I know the ethernet connection is working. So I guess the 612's don't work yet.

    I'm looking forward to the uplink report tonight

    Yea I did that and I can see the new channel but where as all the UHF channels are around 90 to 100% signal strength the VHF channel that our local moved to is coming it at about 11%. I have a combo UHF/VHF antenna but I guess the VHF side doesn't work as well. I tried to adjust the VHF...

    I'm looking forward to the uplink report tonight

    Ok two questions then. I have a 1000.2 pointed at 110, 118 and 129 so I think I should be looking at the right places. Second. Will my SD TV still get local channels. I'm assuming the receivers must down convert. I'm really hoping that dish will bring on our HD channels tonight. One...
