"I see wayne; you don't believe in our government, you apparently don't believe in the laws of physics, you believe that anyone who criticizes Bill Gates is a prude ? and you like Bill Gates - Is there some sign of a pattern here ?"<p>WILL: Yes, I believe in our Government! Yes I support t...

"If such devices were available then why would we need oil, coal or natural gas ?"....<p>I would imagine that if such a device had been invented, we would still need oil, coal and/or natural gas.. because the U.S. Government has their hands so deep in the pockets of the oil barons, electri...

"I'm certain if we could investigate the 1996 lobby FOR the HDTV bill, we will find graft, corruption, and bribes; by manufacturers, cable providers, and retailers. This is NOT HOW AMERICA IS SUPPOSED TO WORK!"<p>Gadgeteer... I love it, but the ONLY way your ever going to get anywhere with...

modems, fax machines, etc, use a relay so that when they are connected, they disconnect the "other" RJ from the circuit, same as firealarm dialers do. a dual jack is basically, just that, a dual jack.. it won't do any magic switching to shut one off when the other is in use.. that's done w...

geesh, all this time I thought the UPS (uninteruptable power supply)meant you ran off the inverter? The AC power converted to DC (charger) to keep the batteries charged, the inverter kept the outside AC totally isolated from the output going to your computer or whatever, therefor, no switching time....

our cable prices are already close to double that of the satelite monthly charges.. I switched to ATT cable, lasted 4 months. they raised the rates again and the service was lousy with the volume going up and down all the time... so back to Dishnet, almost a 50% price difference for the same channel...

Edd... pictures in the e-mail...

Edd.. will do, I have to take my digital to work monday, because I left the receiver on my desk.. thinking about fishing instead of TV I guess.. I appreciate the assistance on this.. I did look at the PVR's, but I've got so much invested in VCR's and receivers, that, if I can make it work at least f...

Edd, I opened the DishNet 4700 receiver and unfortunately there are no batteries on the board? This receiver and my other DishNet 5000 won't upgrade or download information from the satelite very fast, in fact, you have time to go make popcorn and get a pop before it comes back to you with the info ...

thanks Ed, I'll open them up and check that out.. very possible that those bat's are DOA, since these units were unplugged for quite a while.

seems like the one we have will do a reem at a time or better.. and I think it high speed drills the holes..? I know its fast..

while everyone is busy searching for a schematic, does anyone know why my model 5000 and I believe the other is a 4000, won't upgrade? Dish told me to shut them off and leave them over night and they would auto upgrade.. not... I've had them in storage for 2 years.. do I need to replace something to...
