How Long Have You Had HD With Dish?

[MikeF]

Since late summer of 2003 with a 6000U, then an 811 on it's release and hen the 622 on it's release. I now have the HD only pack with E* and an HR-21 with D* for all other programming.

I ordered a 622 as soon as it was available. Installed February 16, 2006.

I got my 942 in September of 2005. I upgraded to the 622 last November.

I got my 6000 for father's day in 2002. I didn't get it hooked up right away though, and IIRC I got subscribed to HD just a couple of days after they added Discovery HD Theater. It took me awhile to get everything installed as I needed LOS to 61.5, in addition to 110/119. My 6000 had the 8vsb tuner and the 8psk module as well. Fortunately, our first digital local channel had fired up too, so I got HBO-HD, Discovery HD Theater, and CBS HD programming. I was in heaven - most beautiful picture I have ever seen, and frankly the quality of HD seems to have dropped, but I can't blame it all on Dish or my locals. I have a rear projection CRT based HDTV and lately the convergence goes out pretty quickly and although it was professionally calibrated long ago, I'm sure the PQ is not what it once was or could be.

When the VOOM channels were added and Dish had a pretty good deal on the VIP 622 (Feb 06) also they were offering 30 or so HD channels and I thought it was time to take the HD plunge $$$.
