QPSK receivers will go dark Feb. 10

Thanks for posting! I remember a while back that Scott said that a handful of transponders and channels were going to be QPSK for seasonal accounts but no time was given for when those last transponders would be converted. I guess we have a final date on when the 8PSK conversion will be completely done! :)
 
Huh. No 111 in there. As it should be, since the 111 is an 8PSK-ready receiver. To bad it's also on Dish's hit list.
 
You mean that 2700 and 3700 I bought in 1999 are obsolete already! This is outrageous. If any of you guys who were going to file class action suits every time a channel was dropped can recommend a good lawyer.
LOL.

Best thing I have read all day. Wow, this made me laugh.
 
I remember the 4700, later upgraded to 4900 with a software update which had some kind of interactive content or something up on the screen. It has the UHF capability.

I thought the legacy 4 digit model numbered receivers were already disabled.

So I take it that the sw legacy switches are also no longer good with a basic receiver such as a 311 if you choose to use them in any dish setup?
 
I'm kinda sad, I paid my way through college installing those receivers. I guess they retired the 2000 already! I'm surprised to see the 3000/4000 on that list, I thought they retired those years ago. :crying

I'm trying to remember the special they were running when I started, if you paid for a year of service upfront you got two months free? Back then it was the top 40 and 60! The advertisement was a guy holding a TV while wearing a spacesuit with all the channel logos pasted to him, and a dish antenna on his head! :biggrin

So, I think I already know the answer to this, but what the heck?! Does this mean that my 301 receiver and 510 DVR that currently reside in a box in my basement are pretty much worthless now? Should they be headed to a dumpster?

What model is this?
 
WOW, looks ancient, way before my time. I started out on 722s in 2007.
They were around when Dish started back in 96
It didnt even have timers on it (the 4000 did...that also added a UHF antenna)

I owned the 5000 which had a OTA (NTSC) tuner in it and had guide info....but only Prime Time events on ABC, CBS, NBC only
