To expand on your comment and my previous comment... I am hearing that the best way is to use the Dish 1000 for the 129 sat and get a smaller Dish 500 and point it to the 119 and 110 sats.
Right now I'm just using the 1000 for all three sats and have problems losing the 129 signal. This summer seems to be getting worse though and I have a spare 500. Time to get on the roof. :)
I hope with the addition of these extra channels that the quality does not go down. Past experiance with the SD channels lead me to believe that my hopes are too high though. Hopefully the networks will demand that Dish keep some kind of minimum standards.
I agree with DEEZNUTZ about the interruptions... not a huge deal, but they do happen. Dish has some birds up there with problems. The key to getting better reception is to use 2 dishes. One pointed at the HD sat and one pointed at the 2 SD sats. Right now dish wants to use the Dish 1000 to try and point to all three sats. Some installers will do this for you.
FYI... All the outputs on the VIP622 are hot at the same time. You can output Component to one tv and HDMI to the other. HD on 2 tv's. Same channel on both sets, but at least you get HD in the bedroom.
So... it was not shown? I thought I missed the premier. I see on their website that next Sunday 4/1/07, they will be airing two episodes... Desert and Ice Worlds.
"With all the new multitouch capable monitors coming out, which one is the best? With the release of Windows 7 I really want a touchscreen monitor for my desktop. I'm looking to get a Full HD monitor that supports multitouch and can still look great during gaming and movies. Which one has the best specs for the price?"
