We were just messing around Dave, you didn't loose any creditablity
Just a little Sunday night fun 
"we are doing this in an attempt to continue
to offer more choices to our customers without serious quality
degradation. "
But you see, they believe they are meeting this standard and I don't agree. I think "serious quality degradation" in Dish's eyes would be an HD channel that approached SD quality.
It is possible that E* will eventually be able to reoffer HD channels in high quality. And I believe they would like to do so. But I think that is well down their priority list.

Not 100% Accurate. All Voom channels are at 1280x1080i and others as well plus there are a few at 1440x1080i.
again not true...
Yes, this is the only true statement so far.
I am sure they are as well degrading the picture.
That was not the point. The point is that the picture quality could be improved to even better PQ today.
This is just more mumble jumbo... ---> Crap....Crap.....Crap.... Like "Turd TV"

I thought this email was going to be some great breaking news like they were going to flip the switch on the RSN's.

There is a perfectly good technical explanation for this, which I typed up in Word. Is there anyone here who lives near a photo developer? I've taken a picture of my screen, so if someone could get my film processed and use the photo to type my explanation into this forum I would really appreciate it.
Is there a contest for most useless thread at the end of the year? Well if there is I nominate this thread...
Theres no information worth even discussing in that reply..Let alone calling it a super reply.. Its just a standard E* canned response with nothing but excuses and deceit..

I just about spit Coke all over my laptop from reading that. Good one Sapient! :up
Because I am a total idot and I wanted someone on the site to approve of it so I didn;t get anyone incharge of the fourms mad at the post. Fergie posted it the proper way.hall said:Exactly why weren't you capable of posting this in this thread yourself ?? Instead, you relied on others....

Also what degrees in satellite communication do you have to properly address this issue. Dave.

Wow, kinda uncalled for. I seriously doubt there are many (any?) people here with a degree in satellite commmunications. That doesn't mean that we can't have a "proper" discussion about satellite TV related issues.
That is very true, but it just seems that if we make a quote that sounds like it is written in stone, you should be able to back it up technically.
That is why I try to always say "in my opinion" so I am not trying to make a message in stone.
Anyway this is the best attempt I have seen from dish to inform us of just what is going on with pq.
Remember optimist= it is partly sunny today. It makes things better to take in.

I feel strongly both ways!
dude2 - I haven't really seen anyone bashed in awhile, so it was about time; and although it probably wasn't intentional, thanks for stepping up to the plate.
: It was also obvious that the first post was incorrect, your initial post said it wasn't the short response.
On the semi-serious side.... Charlie's glad you posted that for 2 reasons; (1) some may find it useful, and (2) let you get critized instead of him.
On the serious side.... I enjoyed reading the email and glad it got posted. Like yourself, I'm surprised that Dish has taken the extra effort to respond with something more than "short preformated strings of propaganda bull fertilizer that doesn't answer the question and just makes their technical staff look like the CSR staff" that I usually get back from them.
I think their new motto should be "If you can't fix it, it doesn't need fixing."
All - I know (most of) you were just joking, but instead of asking you to quit, keep up the good work. I'll just make sure no one knows who I am.
I said yesterday, I'm not a professional installer. Now add to it, I don't have a satallite degree either. But I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.
PS - It took me awhile to figure out how to post pictures, and even longer how to quote (I think thanks go to bobabird).

Not gonna admit it
Since there may be ppl with a degree in it or a related one I don't think they will admit to it on this forum. As soon as one puts out that type of info they seem to get fragged.lakebum431 said:

Did you have Mini Me or the Movie Trailer guy helping you talk about it?
I laughed more while reading through the last few pages of this thread than I did all day at work today. Thanks dude2 :up there sure were some "super" replies here!
I slightly disagree. Although there's nothing earth-shattering in the email, it is worth noting that Dish's canned correspondence still lists HD resolution as, "1920X1080 and 1280X720P."guffy1 said:
They're still referencing the ATSC spec, but not following it in practice.
How have they not been sued along the lines of the current DirecTV litigation?
