I ordered a 622 today, install scheduled for 7/1, not sure if I'll send my 921 back for the $100 credit or sell it on ebay. I ordered thru tech support, got a knowledgable tech, took about 10 minutes. She stressed the point several times: "$6 a month lease fee for the 622" (will be the only receiver) and the 18 month commitment. My 921 has been relatively trouble free the last 4 to 5 months (yeah, it's "mine" when it's working right and "hers" when it used to act up. The wife has learned the various stages of "rebooting" the 921, thankfully not rebooting me!). I will get the $100 ($10 a month) credit for being a "new" silver hd pack sub. (if I read & follow all label instructions/directions, etc).
One questions, the rep said there is an additional charge to hook up the 2nd tv (sd), she thought it started at $59 for this. I figured I'll take my chances with the installer, since the house is pre-wired it shouldn't be that big a deal to complete.
I've learned a lot from this (and dbstalk) forum, thanks for all those who freely post suggestions/ideas/thoughts and help.
The local NBC channel (2) isn't "yet" available in hd, the tech had no idea when that would be. I suggested Charlie needed to put in a call to station management. (I'm in the Houston viewing area). The ota signal on channel 2 is spotty, usually in prime time it's not hard locking in but at other times it's hit or miss. I get a strong ota signal on all the other locals, except pbs (channel 8).
