Can a dishnetwork system be installes in mexico if it can how do you point the dish to recieve the signal?
Probably not. The "footprint" of the EchoStar satellites are pretty much confined to the US. If you were near the border, maybe, but central and south Mexico I would seriously doubt. The legality of such a setup is also a bit questionable.
http://www.geo-orbit.org/westhemipgs/fec鈥?/a>|||I think it can be done provided you know where the satellite is.
Whether it's legal or not, i dont know.
It all comes down to actually knowing where the satellite is orbiting (geostationary orbit, so it always stays at the same point in the sky) which would be nearly impossible, unless you had a technician come in, or you had a good telescope, and the patience to scan the night sky for 4 hours, looking for the teeny-tiny, stationary, badly-lit satellite.
Its like Where's Waldo goes to Space.
If there's dishnetwork where you live, then theyre the only ones that can help you.

My cat was telling me that Dishnetwork gets cloudy during rainstorms, is cable better?
maybe you should go have your cat fix your dam dish..if he can talk he can probably do other things that would amaze you..like riding a bike..I mean climbing up a roof!!!|||I don't think you have much to worry about if You have a talking cat, you should have other things on your mind.|||I wonder if that is because there is no sunny spot to sleep in when it is raining. Maybe you should get a heat lamp for the cat and keep Dish Network.|||That's the same thing my goldfish said. Well, he said we completely lose reception during a storm. I had cable for years and had no trouble. So he told me to get cable or he'll protest belly up.|||Ur cat is correct. Therefore cable is better|||Smart Kitty,its right|||Generally so. Cable does not require a dish on the roof which improves your chances, but it's still a possibility this will happen with cable also.|||Well your cat is right too many clouds can block the satellite signal.|||Actually, we used to have Dish Network, but we switched to DirecTV and it is SO much better. The Dish Network used to go out all the time -- and DirecTV doesn't.
Cable sucks.|||i have had directv satillite for 4 years crystal clear picture and yes it went out during storms thats because the signal comes from the satellites in space i switched to digital cable about a month ago got the package with the cable internet have had nothing but problems with the cable picture is fuzzyy and it goes in and out all the time. i apoligize for the long answer but look into your satellite options before going to cable and get the dvr if the satellite goes out you can always watch stuff youve recorded|||your cat told you a lie|||We changed from the Dish to cable, and we like it allot better....

Is ther a way to record from a DishNetwork DVR to a Laptop or DVD recorder?
Usually yes. Just connect the output from the DVR to your DVD recorder instead of directly to your TV, then play back the recorded program.
With laptops (or desktops), you need a TV capture card (like a Hauppage WinTV or ATI TV wonder) unlesss you're lucky enough to have a computer that came with a video capture card already installed.

I have a dishnetwork as a satellite provider. Now i wanna get an International channel.?
i called them up and they told me that i dont have a line of sight in my area. i lived in an apartment, now they said i couldnt do anything about it. my signal is at 61.7 they said it needs a 118. To add insult to injury, they said i have to moved so i can get the signal. What do u guys think about this? need your help..I e mailed them twice but no replies yet...its frustrating!|||It would depend on to which satellite you need to point. If it is too far east, west or south it will be below the horizon so you cannot point a dish directly at it which is required. Sorry the earth is round and there is nothing you can do about it.

How can I get the volume on my dishnetwork remote to work?
if you mean volume to control the TV, there is a code that the remote need to have programmed to control the tv.
if you have the dishnetwork user manual that came with the receiver, they have a section called programming your remote.
your tv will have a special code, based on the manufacturer. that code needs to be enetered into the remote to control TV functions.|||Call them order a new one.

I have a dishnetwork model 626 with hard disk of 120 gigabytes?
And I have a hd of 40 gb inside my pc. Can I change the hd of 120gb form the dish to my pc and vice-versa? after the change , will work well the two devices again?|||Not a good idea, the hard disk in your computer and the one in the DVR are physicaly the same but the one in the DVR is formatted diffrently so if you tried to put it in your computer you wouldent be able to use it without re-installing windows after formatting it and if you stuck the one from your computer into your DVR it wouldent know what to do with it due to the fact that it has diffrent applications on it that it hasnt seen befor. That and you would be voiding you warrenty in like 40 diffrent ways.

What does everyone like better Directv, Dishnetwork, or ATT Uverse?
We currently have Directv, but may switch. wondering if anyone has switched and if so do they like what they switched to?|||I am not really familiar with AT%26amp;T Uverse but I did have Dish Network for ten years before switching to Directv. In my opinion Directv is better because it is less expensive than Dish Network for basically the same programming. Also Directv allows you to record more than one program at a time and you can schedule your dvr to record from your pc or some mobile phones with an internet connection

Or would i need to start a service of my own
10 points for the best and quickest help THankz|||If the apt. is at the same address where your Dad lives you can use the same service.
If you live somewhere else, you have to have your own dish and subscription. You might be able to add it to your dad's bill, or he could co sign, but you have to ask dish if you can do that.

Have dishnetwork w/ std reciever #322 if i buy on ebay hd reciever will it work?
you can buy a receiver from any source and add it to your account however be very wary of what you buy a lot of receivers being sold for less than value are stolen or if there used they may have balance owed on the receiver and dish will not activate either on all newer model receivers there is no longer smart or access cards so you don't have the option to get a new one if you don't mind a commitment usually for around 150 you can upgrade your receiver and dish will give you credits back to repay you this way it will include a installation witch if your using a dish 500 system(standard for 322 receiver) you will need a 1000 dish installed to receive all hd channels this upgrade would cover all this|||Should work, however, you still need to call Dish to enable it. Call also Dish and ask for a free upgrade.|||not unless you order a new access card for the receiver and the big dish
Is there any way to connect a Tivo HD to my Dishnetwork HD reciever?
First, if you do not already have the Tivo HD do not get it. Get a Dishnetwork HD DVR instead. It is much easier to install. And it allows you to record more than the channel you are watching that is more than one channel at a time.
Second, if you have not opened the Tivo HD do not open its box and think about returning it for the reason in # 1 above and also for the fact that it will cost you less to get the box from Dish because you won't be paying for the box if you sign a contract and the rent in total might be less than the two separate monthly bills, Dish and Tivo.
Finally if you do want to connect the HD Tivo look at what connections you have available as inputs on it and outputs on the Dish HD box.
You should have component outputs (red, green and blue) on the Dish HD receiver as well as audio outputs (white and red). Match these up to the component and audio inputs on the HD Tivo. Set the HD Tivo to record from these inputs as you would if using it with a cable box. You can only record what you tune on the Dish HD receiver that is you cannot watch one channel and record another unless your Dish HD receiver has separate outputs for its dual tuners assuming it has dual tuners in the first place.|||There is not. Tivo HD (and Series 3) do not have any inputs which would allow you to connect your Dish receiver. Their only inputs are over the air coax, cable coax, and digital CableCard.

If the remote you lost had a blue #2 on it, you can use the other blue #2 remote but you will need to change the remote control code to match the receiver. Best to have Dish tech support walk you through this one. Check with a local dish retailer about buying another remote.|||Hi Alfredo,

Can I use a Dishnetwork Dish for a DirecTV receiver?

The signals coming from a DirecTV satellite can only be decoded by another DirecTV equipment and there's no way that it can be read by a Dish Network dish.

The dishes are programmed to pull specific information from the satellites, and even though the companies share two of them you wouldn't even be able to get that information.|||If you are pulling only the primary signals, then yes you can.

most likely you will be paying for a service call. Unlike a dish 500, the 1000 has to be aimed at more than two satellites, unless you have the right equipment you will never get a good signal on all you channels.

Dishnetwork Receiver VIP211, without DVR option, can I still hook up a external hard drive.?
I was told that I could hook up an external hard drive on my dishnetwork vip211 receiver, with a one time activation fee and use it like a DVR. When I called dishnetwork, they told me it was only to expand the current internal drive. Was the dishnetwork representative correct or does my friend know something the representative doesn't?|||Hi The,
The Dish rep was correct. It is only to add additional drive space.
Norm|||This is incorrect. The vip 211 has no internal hd. This new feature is to turn your vip211 to a dvr by adding an external HD.

Do I need a tuner with my hdtv inorder to view dishnetwork channels?
When you get Dish Network, the Dish Network box contains the necessary tuner.
The "box" will then just have either HDMI or component outputs to your TV which is strictly used as a display device, when hooked up this way.
So an HD set which does not have a tuner will work just fine in this application. You just will not be able to hook a set of rabbit ears to this TV.|||Dish network requires a reciever and antenna for reception.
you can connect the componant/HDMI to the tv and should work fine.

If I buy an extra HD receiver for my DishNetwork at a retail store do I have to pay to get it activated?
yes you do. it will cost you prob between $49-$199 depending on the type of receiver and its funcionality. if you call dish network and just lease one,(if youre not under contract they charge $99 truck roll fee, $25 if youre in an 18 mo agreement) if its a reg single tuner hd receiver they charge $99 lease upgrade fee, if its an hd dual tuner dvr, $199. also keep in mind if you buy an hd dual tuner dvr, it only has the capability to carry hd quality on 1 tv, and the other will be standard. they can both record, pause, etc tho.|||I would think so, yes. Have you considered contacting Dish Network to see what they might charge you for the receiver? They might be willing to give you a better deal on both the receiver and activation than going through a retail store. it is worth the time it takes to ask. The worst that they can say is no and you might end up saving money. :-)
What is the problem with Dishnetwork when it states acquiring signal on and off all day?
The correct answer to your question is: you have a weak signal strength.
Several things can cause a low signal (the guy a few answers above me touched on a few).
Most common reasons are:
improper dish alignment
poor connections from the dish to the receiver
something is blocking the signal (trees or heavy cloud cover)|||1) It can be a static build up. Unplug the receiver(s) for 3 minutes. Take out the card. After 3 minutes. Reinsert the card. Plug it back in.
2) If that doesn't work, the connections between the dish and the receiver may be loose so that it is losing signal. Try to tighten those up.
3) Your dish may be off target and may need to be realigned.
I've had all three problems. Good luck.|||I don't know if you have tried it but shut it off at the box and turn it back on. If that doesn't work then you are going to have to call them.|||Your settings for the angle and stuff for the dish is wrong
you can get he pproper ones at dishnetwork.com just search around for it|||the problem is that with dish, every time there's a storm or it just clouds over you lose the signal. i don't like dish. i don't know if direct tv is any better, but it doesn't happen with cable.|||don't listen to the person 'bout direct tv. my aunt had %26amp; in sunny it would go out for 6-12hrs at a time %26amp; at least once a week.my other aunt had cable and it would black out for about 2-4 hrs and everyday you would hear truckers on their radios even though were she lives she is lets just say far enough from big streets.
you should call or log unto dish probaly some wind from a storm or strong winds wacked it out.
had dish only time it went out was went it was raining really, really bad and the satellite ended hanging from the cables from the side of my house.

Is there any other satellite tv provider other than directv or dishnetwork?
Service in the U.S.|||although the two major television providers are DirecTV and Dish Network, there are two others.They are: Globe cast, and Voom. They are probably less reliable and stuff but give it a few years and there will be satellite providers everywhere for TV. the link i got my info from is below, it might help you be able to contact one of those other 2 satellite companies.

My husband and I have a DishNetwork satellite connection?
Question Details: We only get the basics, no Showtime, Court TV, HBO, etc. because he says he doesn't like movies. I noticed several months after we got the service a warning type message would appear on the tv screen saying that the phone line needed to be connected or we'd get charged. I asked him how that happened, and he gave me his usual vague techno babble about why the phone line was unconnected to begin with. Well, I'm discovering that he watches adult pay-per-view, but I didn't say too much about it. Our computer and TV seem to have an awful lot of cables and wires, way more than other homes I've seen. Anyone have an idea what the heck is going on? There is a tv tuner in the main computer (we network with our daughter's computer), but my husband swears there isn't. I found receipts for video hardware including nvidia stuff, something called a "remote wonder", and there seems to be a tremendous amount of hardware, applications, programs, software, wires, and cables hooked up|||You're quite the detective. If you don't have your phone line hooked up you can get charged 5 dollars or so a month. He may want it unplugged so it wont show purchase history. You don't have to have it plugged in to get ppv, you can call it in or go online and order it. The remote wonder is a remote control that allows you to operate your computer from another room. Sounds like he's got it all hooked up so he can watch video from his computer on the tv. Just guessing, good luck.|||First, with DISH, even if you aren't getting pay per view, you get charged an extra amount each month if you are not connected to a phone line. We had problems with ours causing Internet issues at one point and unplugged and have been getting charged for it. \
There are possibly a lot of cables depending on your system. The Dish system has it's own power source, unlike DirecTV (at least when we had it) so that may be part of it. Also, you can have multiple TVs hooked up, and sometimes you can hook up a DVR and the like.
You should either find the manual for the unit, or go online, and they will have schematics for your unit, to help you determine what is hooked up -- if it is that important to you.
The Dish bill is pretty detailed -- so if you look at the bill next month, and don't understand any of the charges, contact their customer support and ask questions about the bill.|||I am not sure what your ? is but I am assuming that he is unplugging the phone line while purchasing adult movies in hopes that either you won't find out or he wont be charged! As soon as you plug the line back in you get charged and the satelite Co doesnt like it when that happens!
I may have answered with a whole different answer than you were looking for sorry if I did!!|||Sounds like you have several questions, some of which are beyond my speculation. Whatever you've found in receipts and your computer is something you'll need to deal with your husband.
Pay-per-view on DISH is only available with a telephone line hookup to your receiver. I don't know why, and I think it's a scam, that DISH will charge an extra $5 a month for subscriber update information when the phone line is not hooked up. To me, that's charging me for what I don't want or use.
If there are pay-per-view charges on your DISH bill, then a phone line is hooked up to receive them. If your receiver warns you that you're subject to an extra fee because it detects no phone line, then no phone line is hooked up.
The only way it can be both ways is if the phone line is hooked up to get pay-per-view, and then unhooked afterward, which is kind of expensive I'd think. Why pay a fee for non-use of an option that is getting used?
As for the extra cables and hardware, I don't understand the question unless you're a technophobe. If you have doubts about your husband's expenditures, then that is not a technical question, but a relational one.

How clear of trees does dishnetwork satellite have to be in order to receive perfect hd picture?
i'm writing from missouri and have to go with satellite to receive hd programming....i'm getting hd tv in the fall and already know satellite has to be pointed southwest....i have a decent clearing of trees towards that direction.....any knowledgable input is appreciated...thanks|||Most of dishnetwork's HD comes from the 110 satellite. VERY roughly from MO, it is 36 degrees above the horizon. for a VERY rough estimate, look to the south (around 220 degrees if you have a compass) and hold out your fist level to the horizon. the top of your fist is about 10 degrees. if the trees clear about 30 degrees above the horizon, youre good.
HD is sent digitally. Therefore, you either get the signal or dont. there is no variation in between. if you get the signal, then it will be 'perfect'.|||The idiot that installed mine pointed it right over the top of a palm tree instead of going to a little more trouble and putting it on the roof, or the other side of the porch. As the tree grew, our reception went downhill. Even though the trunk of the tree does not interfere, just the palm branches waving in the wind do. To everyone out there - you need to stay on top of these people when they are installing your dish. They don't care how your place looks, or if a tree is growing where it'll be in the way next year, etc.

The 722 is an excellent receiver, you can add a sling player or google tv and it is far more robust than the 922 with built in sling player.

All are mandated by the government to continue providing analong TV service without extra charge through 2012, so they're charging extra for HD access. Presumably, when the mandate expires, the HD access will be no extra charge while the analog service will cost extra.
The technology of satellite TV does inherently favor digital transmissions so less adaptation is necessary for HDTV broadcasts. Additionally, a lot of the cable TV cabling is old and in need of upgrade, which is expensive and time-consuming for the company.
Yet, the other day when we had torrential storms and tornado warnings, I turned on the TV for local information and found that I had no reception due to the excess rain pooling in the dish. Although we don't get snow here, I'm told that you have to climb up and clean it out when you get it.
Yet, around here, you have to pay as much for cable as it costs for satellite, but the cable technology is 30 years old and decaying. Like I said, flip a coin and pick the lesser of the evils.|||Check the packages for Dish and cable.
See if you can get a guranteed long term price freeze.

The technology of satellite TV does inherently favor digital transmissions so less adaptation is necessary for HDTV broadcasts. Additionally, a lot of the cable TV cabling is old and in need of upgrade, which is expensive and time-consuming for the company.
Yet, the other day when we had torrential storms and tornado warnings, I turned on the TV for local information and found that I had no reception due to the excess rain pooling in the dish. Although we don't get snow here, I'm told that you have to climb up and clean it out when you get it.
Yet, around here, you have to pay as much for cable as it costs for satellite, but the cable technology is 30 years old and decaying. Like I said, flip a coin and pick the lesser of the evils.|||Check the packages for Dish and cable.
See if you can get a guranteed long term price freeze.

THEY DONT HAVE MANY HD CHANNELS RIGHT NOW ITS TRUE BUT THEY ARE GETTING THERE. WELL IT DEPENDS IF YOU WANT HD OR NOT.

Moving a DishNetwork DVR from one spot to another?
We want to move our TV from the office to the living room, and when we moved the DVR and hooked it all up, it just did a "Looking for satellite signal" screen for like 20 minutes.
Is the DVR supposed to stay in the same place the whole time? Do I have to call DishNetwork to have them move it for me?|||It sounds like you don't realize that just any cable connection on any random wall plate that you screw your DISH receiver to, is very unlikely to be connected to the satellite dish on your roof. That's why you don't have any satellite reception. When you have DISH installed, they don't wire up your whole house to the satellite dish antenna... they wire up only the locations where the DISH receivers are installed.
What you need to do is find the other end of the cable that is connected to the wall-plate that you connected your DISH receiver to, and connect that cable to the satellite dish instead of the one that goes to the room where you are moving the receiver from.|||At the risk of asking a really dumb question, did you relocate your DVR's input cable from the office to the living room? Is is connected to the DVR input exactly like it was before? Alternately, do you have multiple input cables from your LNB, and do you know that the one in your living room is good?
Your answer is in there somewhere. The DVR should work anywhere in the house as long as it has good input.
Followup to your Additional Details: then I would be suspicious of the jack in the living room. Maybe it's not even connected to your LNB--did it ever work on satellite? Maybe it's an old cable TV line. In any case, it would seem that that's your culprit, if everything else is the same.
I'd want to trace the cable (on the other side of your living room jack) back to its source to see how it's connected, and to what.|||once you reconnect the dish cable to the dvr, make sure to run a switch test, if you have mutlible recievers that is. you have to run this test from the setup screen in order for the recieve to be able to change the channels, otherwise it will not be able to "find" satellites.

I'd like to watch one channel and record the other on my dvr with dishnetwork?
When we first got dish network set up, we could watch one show and record another, or we could record two different shows. We just got an update card and updated it. Now, we can only watch the channel we are recording on. Does anyone have any info on why this is, or how to put it back the way it was?|||you forgot to mention the model number of your receiver...The model numbers that can watch a live show while recording another are 722, 622,625, 612 and 525. The ones that don't have this feature are 510, 508 and 501. If you have any of the first four, the reason for the problem could be one of many possibilities ranging from a simple bad connection at the dish to a faulty receiver|||The update card has no effect on functionality. As long as you have two tuners you shoul dbe able to do it. You may want to make sure it is in a single TV mode - so one TV can use both tuners.
What happens if you don't replace your DishNetwork Smartcard?
Will your TV not work? Or will the channel guides just not be updated?

Which satellite company is better Directv or Dishnetwork. Anyone with personal experience?
I have already looked up both companies on their respective web-sites, but I would like to know if anyone has any personal experience with them.. Thanks..|||Honestly they are both great but I have had numerous bad experiences with DishNetwork. I first ordered satelite with Dish in 2000. I got a top of the line DVR ($600 then) and a $400 dollar second room reciever. I paid $1500 for the entire system because in 2000 satelite was a big thing. Anyway over the years my bill got higher and I was getting less and less channels. Then one day in 2005 I called to order TWO of their flagship HD DVR recievers using their "Dish'n it up" promotion which is where you upgrade your reciever for a LITTLE OR NO FEE. Then when my billing statement came I was stuck with a 200 dollar bill. Finally after hours on the phone I just went ahead and paid the bill. Oh yeah and their customer service SUCKS. Ocassionaly I got a kind and understanding person but other then that I always dealt with rude people that were trying to get me off of the phone. Then in 2006 I noticed I was paying $80 for 10 HD channels and 60 others plus I had TO PAY FOR LOCALS. That day I called to cancel and guess what the lady I was talking to put me on hold for 2 hours. I hung up dialed again and Immediatley canceled (that time around I was talking to a nice agent). That agent was nice and asked me why I am switching and was very understanding. They then said if I were ever to come back I would get 3 months free plus what ever new customer promotions they would have available. With DirecTV on the other hand it is VERY VERY NICE. I called their toll free number and told the representitive what features I wanted he immideatly scheduled a FREE installation and i only had to pay $99 for an HD reciever. I am currently paying $49.99 for 150 channels Including locals and I also get 15 HD channels. I also got three months of free HBO .The install was great and they came within 5 days of my order. I would definitley reccommend Directv.You will not regret it.|||DirecTv. My parents got Dish first: the guy came to install and did it wrong (we only had the local channels). On a Friday, the thing went out entirely and we were told that a tech would have to come out to repair, we were then transferred to someone else who said they could fix it remotely. They couldn't, and it was the end of the day. We left a message with the local company that installed it, and they called and said they would be out to fix it on Tuesday (they can install in 24 hours, but fixing takes 3 business days). We called DirecTv, they were out to install it on Monday morning first thing, and they've had no problems since. DishNetwork could not have cared less why we cancelled. There was no apology or anything.|||Directv. Excellent customer service. Great picture quality and sound. Great channel line up. On some, you get both the east coast and west coast feeds. Wish they had more Encore channels. Not a big fan of dj hosted-XM music channels--I just want the music. Also, Rupert Murdoch owns them, which makes me squirm with resentment and loathing, Overall, very happy with Directv.

Why do I keep losing sound through my Dishnetwork HD receiver?
It's a model VIP211 receiver. While watching an HD channel, I noticed the volume would go out all of the sudden, then I'd just change the channel and it would be fine. Now when the sound goes out, the only way to bring back the sound is to actually completely reset the receiver which is a major inconvenience having to wait to acquire and download a whole new signal. Whats going on? I'm putting off calling customer service only because I'm gonna be put on hold for a half an hour until Habib or someone like that tells me what to do, which I'm never in the mood to deal with.
Also, I have no signal on my local Fox and NBC HD channels. Never did. Anyone know what that is?|||There is a discussion about this at dbstalk.com . Audio dropouts are a known problem with the 211 and Habib at Dish will give you a new receiver.

How do you move a DishNetwork satelite dish to a new location (from my yard to side of garage?)?
To be honest it is best to leave it up to a pro. Call dish and ask for it to be moved. If the install just happened they will have to move it for free. Why did they put the dish in the yard? There could be a very good reason it was not put on your garage. If there is a tree in the way it would not work on the garage. I ran into this all the time as an installer. People want the dish hidden or where nobody can see it. I do not blame them but most of the time by hiding the dish it would not work where people wanted it to go. Most of the time there were trees in the way but not in the yard that is getting the service. Neighbors trees or something next to the house would make the location bad. I put them in the best spot for the signal. Then I would ask the home owner if that was OK. If they had a problem with the dish in the location we would find a spot that would work. If they said no, not in the yard and I could not get signal on the house then I would leave and tell them there is a location problem.
Your best move is to call dish and tell them there is a problem with the location right now. They should send a tech out to look at it. They will tell you if it can work on the garage. Some garages and even houses I would not put the dish. If the wood was rotten or had many layers of shingles on it then I would not mount anything to it. The dish would end up moving and would stop working. Call them and they should be able to fix it, be sure you are present when they are there. This way you can talk to the tech. I have put the dish where the wife said it was good then the husband would get home and flip and I would have to go back and move the dish because he did not want it there. That is never good. I hope this helps.

I live in Salem county, NJ if that helps.|||There's a reason a custom-built anything usually will cost more than one off the mass production assembly line.
The companies you mention claim it would cost each customer MORE to get only the services they want (A la carte).
A la carte cable television (from the French 脿 la carte, "from the menu") is an idea for cable companies to allow subscribers to select to which channels they would like to have access. This is in opposition to the large package deals currently prevalent in American cable deals, which often result in consumers paying for additional channels irrelevant to their interests.
While a la carte cable is not a major function of U.S. cable deals, the idea of it has been a major subject of debate. In a 2006 USA Today article, Kevin Martin, the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, states his position that he is in support of users choosing their channels. However, leading companies such as Disney, and cable providers such as Time Warner prohibit operators to sell channels which stand alone.[1]
Martin presented a report to Congress showing a potential increase in consumer savings by 13%, and with cable prices rising from 2% to 6% a year, the issue has risen in profile, and will continue to be considered.[2]
The downside of a la carte cable television is directly related to cable companies, who worry that viewers could watch less television, and that advertising revenues could decline as certain channels fell in popularity. A mandated a la carte cable deal could inspire cable companies to increase overall prices.|||With DIRECTV both the MLB and NFL networks are available in the basic package, CHOICE, but the RSN regional sports networks looks liek it might be YES and MSG which do not have the Phillies only Yanks and Mets. If you are in a Zip code where you get the Philadelphia RSNs you would be able to get everything you need int the CHOICE package with HD for $44.99 for one year but it would go to 65.99 after that. That is for 1 room add $5 for each additional room.

I can't talk about DISH Network but for Directv, yes it will work but only if you get a HD receiver since this receiver has one HDMI output.

When you call DirecTV for setting up your contract and schedule the installation, make sure they write down you want an HD receiver.

For a change in location of only 20 miles the compass heading (azimuth) and angle of elevation won't change measurably. If you were to relocate several hundred miles away, the Az-El settings will be different, and you might not be able to receive some of the local channels, but the national feeds would all be there.

I see you like the FTA matter, did you know that acording to UN all the private comercial Satellites should use 20% of the channels to FTA. well most of them just don't obey that.

What is the best value? comcast triple play? Dishnetwork triple play? or Direct TV triple play?
I am presently spread between AT%26amp;T, Comcast and SBC Ameritech for my three services. What do you suggest and why? Any negatives?
I also travel between Michigan and Florida spreading my time 7 mo. and 5 mo. I also have a separate cell phone. |||Dishnet nor DirecTV provide triple play. They are satellite TV only.
If you want either for TV, you will have to obtain internet and phone from elsewhere.
That said, either provider may have an agreement with a local telco, to provide the TV part of their triple play package.

Should I switch from dishnetwork to a roku with Hulu and netflix?
I don't know much about streaming t.v. or any of this stuff. I just know Im tired of pay dish-networks high prices. Please help. :)|||I have one of the older Roku boxes and like it a lot.

What happens when I connect my dishnetwork receiver with just analog audio to my surround sound system?
If i connect the dish network receiver with just analog sound connections will this system improve it to surround sound at all or anything close to it?

How do i change my dishnetwork channel ?
its currently 116 and my dishnetwork controller doesnt work to go to 100+
only up to 99 i need help|||Swap it for direct tv,,|||Dour,
The TV is set to a channel to pick up the signal from the receiver. To view your satellite channels, the TV must be on the channel setup by the Technician. If using a coax cable on TV 1, it's normally 3/4; on TV 2, it's normally 60/73 but can be any channel. It looks like the Tech used 116 in your setup. I would go into your TV menu and scan your channels or manually put that channel in. You do not want to physically change your TV from that channel otherwise you will lose your signal. With your programming package, your channels numbers will go much higher than 116. I hope this helps.

Your choose depend on what you need. Like if you are like watching TV at home, in my opinion, cable TV will be better choose. But if you're like traveling, like going to the forest w/ your family to cooking s'mores, I recommend to you satellite dish. And most probably portable satellite dish or both as well.
I added link below to the article, so actually you can check more info at youtube and google/yahoo/bing as well =)
Thanks and do best choose for you, Alex|||DirecTV and Dish Network = terrible.
They may have great deals but if you look closely at the rules and regulations it may say that its only that small of a price for a few months, then it jumps up. Also, if you are getting pamphlets in the mail about "deals" from Dish Network it is probably not that trusting unless it comes from Dish Network itself. Ive had DirecTV once and the TV went out when it RAINED, SNOWED, CLOUDLY, or FOGGY. I then went to Dish Network and they have all these hidden fees and the reception is terrible 45% of the time.
I have had comcast triple play for a year now one bundle...phone...tv... internet all for about 115 dollars a month. Its such a great steal! The internet I hear is the fastest internet service in my area. The phone is awesome has many free features no other company offers, and the TV has went out two times which was to reset our box. Other then that it is great. Great Customer Service even though Ive only called twice. Great TV guide, great ON demand program!!|||Let's see. Anything but Comcast.
When we remodeled the house we also redid all the cabling in our walls. Despite this upgrade, we still got fuzzy channels from Comcast. Fox was unwatchable, for instance. Comcast said it was our equipment that was at fault. Yeah, right. Then Comcast suffered an equipment failure and our cable was out entirely. We called Comcast only to have them tell us it would be 2 days before they could send out a technician. We waited 2 days. The technician confirmed the problem was on Comcast's side, but couldn't fix it - that required a separate work order and that would require another 2 weeks of no cable. While this was being explained to me by Comcast, my wife was already calling up DirecTV to get some prices. I told this to the Comcast support tech whose response was "I don't blame you, but unfortunately I can't do anything for you." At least he was polite and honest.
We've had Dish ever since.
You know, I've heard all this garbage about Dish/DirecTV having bad pictures, or going out when it's cloudy out, or raining, or snowing but it's just not true. Clouds, rain, nor snow do not interfere with the satellite signal. Look, when it's cloudy/rainy/snowing does your FM radio lose signal? No, it doesn't. Satellite signals are even stronger than FM radio signals. Clouds, snow or rain aren't going to be a problem. In fact the ONLY time I've seen snow cause a problem with satellite was when I was at my brother's during a blizzard and snow physically piled up on the dish itself. The other people complaining probably didn't have their dish installed in a secure manner, and had it blown out of alignment due to wind. That won't happen if you have your dish installed by a professional, which is free, by the way, when you sign up with Dish or DirecTV.
What will be a problem? Anything that physically blocks line-of-sight from the dish to the sky, like trees or a building. However in those cases, the installer will tell you that you probably won't get an optimal signal in the first place.
Anyways, we have Dish. Their customer support is great. They really do try to do everything they can for you. And if you try asking for something more, they can often accommodate you in some way.
Dish's current HD-DVR has 2 tuners in it. This means you can watch up to 2 different channels (in different rooms if you want) or record up to 2 different shows at once. It stores about 50 hours of HD programming, or 300 hours of non-HD programming (or some combination of the two.) We currently have 2 separate HD-DVRs, their 200 channel package including local and all HD channels. We're paying about $60 a month, after discounts. Look online to see what their current deals are - just keep in mind they require a 2 year commitment. At the end of that 2 years, feel free to call in and renegotiate. At the very least you can sometimes swap your older DVR for a newer model (which we did last time) or get a small discount for remaining a customer.
The DVR itself isn't bad...but it definitely has its glitches. IMHO, Tivo is still the best DVR out there but they're a lot more expensive and don't work as well with satellite boxes.
Your choose depend on what you need. Like if you are like watching TV at home, in my opinion, cable TV will be better choose.

The technician confirmed the problem was on Comcast's side, but couldn't fix it - that required a separate work order and that would require another 2 weeks of no cable. While this was being explained to me by Comcast, my wife was already calling up DirecTV to get some prices. I told this to the Comcast support tech whose response was "I don't blame you, but unfortunately I can't do anything for you." At least he was polite and honest.
We've had Dish ever since.
You know, I've heard all this garbage about Dish/DirecTV having bad pictures, or going out when it's cloudy out, or raining, or snowing but it's just not true. Clouds, rain, nor snow do not interfere with the satellite signal. Look, when it's cloudy/rainy/snowing does your FM radio lose signal? No, it doesn't. Satellite signals are even stronger than FM radio signals. Clouds, snow or rain aren't going to be a problem. In fact the ONLY time I've seen snow cause a problem with satellite was when I was at my brother's during a blizzard and snow physically piled up on the dish itself. The other people complaining probably didn't have their dish installed in a secure manner, and had it blown out of alignment due to wind. That won't happen if you have your dish installed by a professional, which is free, by the way, when you sign up with Dish or DirecTV.
What will be a problem? Anything that physically blocks line-of-sight from the dish to the sky, like trees or a building. However in those cases, the installer will tell you that you probably won't get an optimal signal in the first place.
Anyways, we have Dish. Their customer support is great. They really do try to do everything they can for you. And if you try asking for something more, they can often accommodate you in some way.
Dish's current HD-DVR has 2 tuners in it. This means you can watch up to 2 different channels (in different rooms if you want) or record up to 2 different shows at once. It stores about 50 hours of HD programming, or 300 hours of non-HD programming (or some combination of the two.) We currently have 2 separate HD-DVRs, their 200 channel package including local and all HD channels. We're paying about $60 a month, after discounts. Look online to see what their current deals are - just keep in mind they require a 2 year commitment. At the end of that 2 years, feel free to call in and renegotiate. At the very least you can sometimes swap your older DVR for a newer model (which we did last time) or get a small discount for remaining a customer.
The DVR itself isn't bad...but it definitely has its glitches. IMHO, Tivo is still the best DVR out there but they're a lot more expensive and don't work as well with satellite boxes.
Are the Dishnetwork answers on here, really from employees?
I have asked questions about Dishnetork and received answers from alleged employees of the company(Mary with Dish Network). I just found out the information I was given was not accurate. Namely, if anyone is interested in locals and ala carte channels, you can actually do that. The ala carte channels are very few but it is possible. Cost for locals only is approximately $10. Are they really empolyees and if so, are they trying to prove that companies are unethical.|||Anyone armed with a cpu that can type can answer your questions. Most dish answers are from customers.
When I answer a dish question, I try to be accurate and include the dish site but most people just want someone else to do the research for them and just want answers.
If everyone just did what yahoo wants you to, 1. ask the question before posting it, you would be amazed at the answers that are good answers that have been around over 2 years in this forum.
If they would ask before posting, we wouldn't see " what is the difference between dvd-r and dvd+r" everyday.
So if your doing anything dangerous, like wiring a house plug for 220v, I would have enough basic knowledge before attempting it or I would hire a pro. You never know how accurate your answers are because some people on here have a cpu and too much idle time.
I would say that 95% of the people give good and accurate answers and they have helped me when I needed help. But you will always find a few that can give this site a bad name. Just my 99 cents|||Hi, this is Alicia Brink. I am with the Executive Offices of DISH Network. Mary is a DISH Network employee as well.

But if you want say "Bravo" or TLC, then it is not possible.
Of course local channels are available in most areas, but NOT everywhere.

just FYI
I have just today dis-continued my service with Dish Network after years of service.
Their policies have changed so much since we first signed up it is un-real.
If your equipment has issues you can expect to pay $99.00 for a service call even when it is their satellite or receiver..... That was the last straw for me.
(how in the world can they get away with this is beyond me - I mean you have to have THEIR equipment and pay for the service - but if they send you crap to start with.... YOU have to pay??
come on)|||Dish and other satellite providers have to pay a copyright fee to the local television stations for delivery. Originally Dish just absorbed this in the basic package, but to stay competitive with DirectTV, which does not offer local stations in most markets, it now charges a small fee to cover the copyright charge. if you chose not to take local channels, then you don't pay the fee.|||no illiegaly yes|||i think so

How do I transfer programs I have recorded on dishnetwork dvr to my computer to burn on a dvd?
I play these into my computer via a capture device and PowerProducer 3, and edit and make the DVD with Pinnacle's Studio 9. ~
Does anybody know what satellites Dishnetwork works with in Mexico?
Dish Network is on their own private satellites named Echostar. Because of the spot beams they use, the satellites don't cover much past the southern border of the US. Echostar 4 (77W) and Echostar 7 (119W) look like your best bets.
How late can my dishnetwork payment be?
We've been a month late before and we caught up by paying last month's bill and the current bill at the same time. Well, we're a month late again. Can we just make 1 month's payment this week and make the rest up next when my first paycheck comes in? Will they shut off our service?/|||about a month, if you remember when you received your first bill, it was a double bill because they bill a month in advance. When the message pops up on the screen warning you that your service is about to be shut off, then you have about 4 days- which is not enough time to mail it, so you have to call it in or you can make a payment at radio shack ( instant post )
You wont have to pay all of it just what ever is past due.|||I would say that if you read the back of your payment bill it would be explained to you. If you don't find it call your dish companies phone number and ask the question you want to know.

I have Dishnetwork, and I want to hook up two HDTVs. Is that possible with one Dishnetwork receiver?
Not with HD as the Dish Network dual tuners work one tv in HD and one in standard definition.
Go here: http://www.sathookup.com/dish-hd/dishhd-鈥?/a> for more information|||No. Each TV needs it's own receiver (if you want to watch different channels - that is). You can hook up 10 TVs to a single receiver (just get a signal splitter) but you can only watch the same channel on all 10 TV's so there is no point. They will charge you more for each addition TV/hookup.|||If you want to purchase new dish network, only you will get 2 ,3 channel in HD, for those channel you have to pay Rs. 90 around per month, its not worth,|||you can do it with the single Dish Network

How EXACTLY does the dual-tuner "Separator" made by DishNetwork work?
Be careful, now. It is NOT a TV splitter. It enables both tuners of a dual-tuner receiver to use only one cable from the Dish Pro Plus LNBF. Choose your answers carefully...I am a communications engineer.|||This is an interesting article.
http://www.dishretailer.com/dpp/dpptwin.鈥?/a>
There are many ways to multiplex two analog signals. They coul d use simple RF modulation with two different carrier frequencies.|||Well, the dish has to have at least 2 LNB's on the dish, both get combined at 2 difference frequencies and passed through 1 cable. Next it needs to be separated with some type of dishnet splitter. Then from there, 1 cable goes to Sat 1 IN, and the other to Sat 2 In.
Iam not sure what you are asking, but if your talking about how 1 dish set top box can operate 2 different tvs at the same time with different remotes then hopefully the answer above is correct.|||Interesting question.
Sounds like a simple band pass filter
separating UHF from VHF.

P.S. If this is wrong, I'll know Tuesday or Wednesday... 'cause I'll ask one of the engineers at echostar.|||If you're a communications engineer, then you already know the answer. It really is just a splitter. They tried to tell me that a splitter is a passive device, but their Separator is an active device. Unfortunately, it has no power plug, uses no batteries, and the signal from the LNB is incapable of powering it.
And besides, you're sending one signal to two tuners, just like a splitter does for two TV's.

How can I connect my Magavox MWR10D6 DVR to DishNetwork?
I have tried a million different arrangements of cables.....I can get the DVD part to work, but the DVR will not record anything on tv. It does nothing when record is pushed, no light or anything. Could someone please walk me through the correct cord set up? Thanks :)|||1. Try using just coax cable. Out of DVR to the inlet coax of the tv. In Cable mode on the tv, channel 3 most likely, you should see the DVR channel. if not...
2. It won't be the first DVR to fail right out of the box.....get a new one....

Can I buy those other universal remotes for my DishNetwork reciever?
My DishNework remote is not working properly when I press the SAT and other buttons. Their remotes are expensive. so, can I buy regular universal remotes? They say it will work, will it? I have the skinny black standard reciever.|||If your DIsh Network receiver manual says the remote is an infared remote and if the universal remote says it works with Dish Network boxes then it will probably work. The reason why some people have problems with remotes and satellite boxes is because some older satellite boxes and maybe some new ones have radio frequency (RF) remotes that work through walls. And not many universal remotes have that feature.|||yes at bestbuy|||It will work but it might not have all the functions that one of their remotes will have. You might want to try dishdepot.com. they have pretty cheap dishnetwork remotes. Also, look for a RCA RCU900 universal remote, it works great. Just Google it.
What are the requirnments for working with dishnetwork?
I'm thinking about becoming a satellite installer for dish network or direc tv I've heard rumors about employees having to buy their own cables that go with the satellites is this true? Also how hard is it to install a satellite?|||If you work for dish Network or Directv directly then they provide all the tools and supplies but pay you less.
If you work as an independent installer, you buy all of your equipment and supplies but get paid more per install and it is your own business.
Join the SatHookup Network of independent installers, dealers and sales representatives : http://www.sathookup.com/jobs.php
We only work with established installers (have experience and their own equipment)|||Installing isn't all that hard, you just need good training. Dish Network has corporate techs and they are regular hourly employees. DirecTV generally only has subcontractors, so that would mean buying all your own supplies, tools, and such and pay for your own training. Dish Network can be a tough company to work for since their standards are almost impossibly high, so here's the way you get into the business. Get the job with Dish Network (at a corporate installation depot, not a subcontractor), get trained as a corporate tech, work there as long as you can and save up money to buy a work truck, tools, wire and stuff, and pay for about 2 months worth of gas. When you get fired from Dish Network (which will usually happen eventually, even if you're a manager), you will have the money and training you need to get started as a subcontractor. You should be able to find a local subcontracting company for Dish Network and they will welcome you as a former corporate tech with open arms. Then you can work for yourself and make the good money. You could also go subcontract for DirecTV. The equipment installs basically the same as Dish Networks, but DirecTV tends to pay less money per job. Hope this helps.
