    622 OTA signal loss

    Wind Effects? I have a 622 with an attic mount Radio Shack UHF antenna. One of the local channels normally comes in with 85-88% signal. One gusty day, the signal kept dropping out. Does anyone know what causes this? Is it the tower/transmitter, atmospheric effects, or what? The other local...

    Can I specify 129 over 61.5?

    I got 61.5 by default The installer planned to install a 1000.2, but did not know how to get the mast vertical. I figured I could get it right later. This was his first 1000.2 install. As a result, he could not get 129 tuned in. He ended up putting up two 500 dishes, one with a single LNB...

    So is the VIP622 the ISH right now?

    The Motorola HD-DVR I just dropped off at Comcast is a piece of junk compared to the 622 I have now. It works more reliably than the old 501 I used to have with Dish, and that was pretty good.

    New Packages Confusing

    Claude, what happened to the $69.99 DVR Advantage with AT-250 + 1 Premium. I signed up with you and called back twice to verify this figure. Why does the worksheet show $74.99 for DVR Advantage w/ AT250 + 1 premium.

    Problems with 129 The installer came out yesterday here in Savannah GA to put in a 1000.2. He couldn't get a good signal on 129, particularly transponder 11. He had a lot of trouble tweaking the dish. He ended up putting up a 500 dp twin plus and another 500 for 61.5. Signal strength was way...

    Updated New Pricing Info

    I called Dishstore and signed up as a new customer - hopefully for the DVR Advantage with AT250 + HD. The info Scott posted earlier said that this was $89.99/mo and included/required a movie channel. I signed up for Starz. I did not get a clear answer as to whether this was the correct price for...

    Can I specify 129 over 61.5?

    I am considering going back to dish after a 1-1/2 year hiatus. Does anyone know if I can specify the dish hardware (1000.2) and the 129 satellite over the 61.5, or do instalers generally just install what they have? Do customer service reps deal with this question? I think LOS is marginal for me...
