How do you want that question answered, owned receivers, receivers with active subscriptions? Do you want me to include the "C" band receivers I still have buried?

Why not just repost in the form of a poll ? Then everyone could answer anonymously. Options could be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or more

Just a thought :)

Currently: A 501 + two 301s.

Next tuesday: HDVR2 + two HBH-SAs.

So, three receivers.... and my mom gets the standalone receivers. I get the PVR, but I'm the timeshifter of the family.

I agree with pez2002. If Cyclone didn't like this thread then he didn't have to respond. But since he did so in such a sarcastic way I think he's the one with the problem. Keep your nose out of this thread if you don't care for the topic. Noone is forcing you to reply.

I figured you were kidding.......

A 721 and Two Dishplayers (and a 4900 and 2700 sitting in the closet which are leased from E* from the Digital Dynamite plan.... it costs me $10 extra a month for them BUT i miss the $5 extra receiver fee, and I get the in home service plan wich saves me the $1.99 Extended Warranty (E* won't let me but it saying I am already covered), so it is a $3 a month insurance policy in case one of my receivers flakes out.

One Model 5000 in a closet.

Heh, same thing I have, and I have also been thinking of replacing my 4900 with a 508.... but since my 4900 is still picking up free stuff, doubt I will do that.

I will have a decision to make once the HDTV stuff is out. With football season coming up (college football fan), this 27 inch tv is seeming a little small, and thinking of getting a new hdtv. Not sure what i will do then, although I do imagine myself staying with dish and their very reasonably priced 811.

Whenever I think my a/v life has gone out of control, it's nice to come here and realize I am not the only one who is "cuckoo for cocoa puffs". I have 1 Gaebo,1 Hughes Platinum,1Dish 508 and 3 Comcast dig cable--1 of which is HD! Oh,and a SA Tivo with Comcast providing locals and DirecTv providing all else. I think it is amazing that my $75 Tivo 112 can take the two different providrs and make a flawless recorder/guide/scheduling interface. Is thee anything TIVO cant do???
