Someone mentioned a 5 LNB dish. They installed a 3 LNB dish with my upgrade. I take it the 5 LNB is newer? Do you get better reception with the 5 LNB?

My new dish does say "SlimLine" on it, but it looked like a 3 LNB to me. Guess I need to look more closely. Thanks for the correction.
It looks like this:

This may be the complete wrong place to ask this, but does anyone have Dish HD?? I am thinking about upgrading now that I have an HD TV, but my wife is worried about the costs (we're young and planning kids, so money is sort of tight).... Just curious what the upgrade costs are, and what a "normal" monthly bill might be. I know it's $10 a mo. for their HD package, but the upgrade cost has alluded me so far. We have dish right now, so I'd threaten to switch if it would force their hand. My issue is I HAVE to get an HD DVR. We can live w/ OTA HD local programming for a while, but I don't think I'd survive more than a couple days without my DVR.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light for me so that I don't have to call and deal w/ some idiot csr from Dish network.

When I started to play the recording the last 20 minutes of hour 2 was playing and then went into what should have been hour1. At the end of that complete show the message was to delete or save although the recorder showed a full 2 hours. Did anyone else have this problem or did anyone watch these programs live. I don't know if it was a channel 5 problem, and NBC feed or dvr, but I don't see how the dvr could have recorded the end of a program first. Very weird.

Man, I went back tonight and read the first couple of pages of this thread.....we sure were willing to put with alot of trouble and expense to get HD OTA back then!! But sounds like we were getting alot better PQ and service as well...............
I have been without HD since before we moved over a year ago....haven't put up an amp, sold my HD-TiVo as D* really was getting to me, and my E86 appears to have burnt out............

It would be nice to have a mod or group thereof quickly run through the thread and delete any posts known to be off focus or stating nothing that supports the topic or provide insights as to the reception of HDTV. I don't want to eliminate current conversations, but some of 3-5 year old stuff could be weeded out and probably 80-90% deleted to make this a better thread (and cut out 100+ pages.)
I am sure many of you see the pile of old equipment laying around your home like I do. I am glad I didn't buy one of the expensive first models of HDTV as technology and supply catching up with demand has sure made it a lot easier to get into these days.
