Confused and Dazed!

Two questions:

1. I would like to get all of the Regional Sports Networks yet I do not see an option to select this package when choosing my programming and system. Is this package included in the 200 or 250 channel package already? I want to clarify not just the one that my zip qualifies me for, but I want to get all of the RSN. Where is this package option?

2. I want the following: 1 HDTV with DVR, 1 Standard TV and 1 Standard TV with DVR. I want 3 SEPARATE receivers for this...no multi-room receivers, yet I do not see how to add this in the builder or what it cost.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,


Mark

At present, the 622 HD DVR is a twin tuner = tv1 HD and tv2 SD.
Why not save 5 bucks a month and get a twin tuner (needs phone line connection)

"ALL the RSNs" may be stretching it a bit. They call them REGIONAL for a reason. Someone else will have to elaborate the possibilities of ALL.

Why would you NOT want a multi-room DVR/receiver. The 622 will give you HD recordings from 2 tuners (3 with OA) and will give you access to ALL recordings on your SD TV including down converted HD recordings. You will also be able to watch all HD programming (down-converted) on that SD TV. You will also be able to program recordings from that SD TV. If that doesn't convince you try this. Get a 622 for the HD TV and a 522 for one of the SD TV's and run the home distribution TV2 out on the 622 to the coax in on the both SD TVs. You would then have 2 more tuners and access to all HD exclusive programming and recordings on all TVs. The possibilities are amazing within the 4 tuner Dish leasing limit.

Yes, by all means get Direct:
150 HD channels coming. 50 or more will be regional sports and I'm sure you can see ALL of them!!!!! And when it's not 'Game Day', they will all be showing the same infomercial.
