I have an old 301 receiver and a DVR-510...will Dish give me any credit for these to be used towards upgrading to a newer DVR (i.e. ViP 622 or ViP 722)?

Server Issues. We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. The provider was going to move us to a new server, however we are now told by the provider the issue is at the data center in St. Louis. They have offered to move us to a different datacenter on the East Coast or West Coast, however at this time we have declined the move to a different data center as it would affect the speed of connecting to about half our members.
We are waiting for more information from our provider, however we are trying to ride this out to stay in the same data center, so that when the server is fixed all users in the US will get the fastest connection possible.
If after some time the issue is not resolved we will be forced to move to another data center, if this happens there will be down time, as they will need to transfer everything to the new server and we will need to update the DNS and other settings for the new IP address of the new server. If we have to do this, the time it will take to move will be out of our hands.
We are going to try our best to weather through this, so we thank you in advance if you encounter any issues.
Sorry for the issue!

And that is only if you own them rather than DISH owning them. Both of those receivers could be owned or leased, today most are leased.
Mine are owned, back when I was with DISH in 2004-2005. Hmm...just $10 per receiver, huh. Can you use old receivers like the 301 or 510, or does the switch to MPEG-4 make these receivers completely obselete?
Only MPEG-2 HD receivers are obsolete. Most MPEG-2 SD receivers are still current and working fine on the western arc.
