Saturday I am scheduled for an HD upgrade from Dish 500, 625 & 4900 to (2) 722's + possibly adding a 211 later. What dish should I be receiving? Tech support said he thought it would be 1000.4, but previously was told it would be 1000.2.
 
The 1000.4 (Eastern Arc dish) is supposed to be limited to new subscribers in 20-something DMAs for the time being. Based on that I would guess you'd be getting a 1000.2. You may be getting a second 500 though if your locals are on 61.5. I assume your 500 is already pointed at 110 and 119. Anything's possible with E* though. It's not a defect but part of the plan. :)

MPEG2 to MPEG4 Free upgrade really isn't
