I've only had the 5000+mod for a month now, but I'll tell you what I know. You MUST have teh modulator to receive any hd content. There is an analog antenna...
Lemme ask a different question.... If you connect an OTA antenna to a Dish 5000 without the modulator, what would you get? a) an analog signal (so, this would...
Ron, From what I can tell, the OTA input on the 5000 itself is analog- only. You can add local channels, but they will be the analog affiliates only (5 for...
You must use the Dish 6000, not the 5000, set top box to demod a OTA DTV carrier, and even then you must have the additional 8VSB tuner installed. The demod...
Don't forget that you will be charged $5 to activate the borrowed box. And probably another $5 to deactvate it. $5/mo to use it. Ray ... HDTV ... in ... DISH...
Thanks....I just confirmed what you are saying....the 5000 is only analog ;-( So much for the grand experiment.... So, the 6000 is digital, or does it too...
Ron - I have a 6000 set top with the 8VSB plug-in. But I also failed to mention that to get a HD video output, the set top puts that video out the three-wire...
I believe the 8vsb also has a db15hd connector that will allow you to connect a computer monitor and watch HD. You will have to make size adjustments, but it...

The message is that TBS is available as WTBS, channel 17 or channel 990 depending on your receiver, instead of as Superstation TBS on channel 247. I subscribe...
Thanks for your reply. I guess it was too much to hope for that they were going to experiment with digital TV signals on DirecTV in Atlanta ... ... 990 ... ...
You can watch DTV channels (including HD) on a Dish 6000 on a non-HD television, utilizing the s-video jack. The 6000 downconverts the HD signal to SD when...
Hi, I have a sound/picture sync problem with my receiver. The sound is several seconds ahead of the picture. Only on that channel. I didn't think this specific...
It sounds like you are seeing a digitally delayed picture which is normal for DTV reception on ch. 27 but are some how receiving the analog transmission of the...
I received a new DTC-100 box today from Thompson and the new receiver has the same problem. All stations are fine except Fox 5 (Channel 27). The audio is off...
At 8:10 PM on FastLane the audio is in sync on both 5-1 and 5-2 on my Samsung T165. I have not noticed any lip sync problems on Ch 5 lately. ... -- Dale...
If some DTC-100's have a reproducable problem at the same time that others don't, then it is probably a software revision problem. This is exactly what we saw...
