Does anyone know when the 301 is to get DISH Home? What software number is it?

I believe it is supposed to be 170P. But don't get toooo excited, have it on my 4700/4900 and it got boring real quick.

Somebody help me, what is Dish Home. I have version 170 on my 301???

If you turn to Channel 100 (will turn you to 101 if not there) and it is a Special Application using Open-TV that gives you a menu for Instant Weather, News, Games and an upcoming Cust Service App.

More Hype than anything else...

Very slow app. Takes more time than it's worth. Weather is the only benefit at this point.

Most of the time when I need the weather, it is in the morning and the TV news has it scrolling at the bottom of the screen now, so I have not used the App beyond the 1st 2 weeks I had it.

The only thing I wish it had was the Local Weather Channel's local radar screens.

I've got 170 on my 301 but no Dish Home

I have P156. Why do some people have P156 and others have P170?

Do you have a Dish 500 or two dishes connected to a multidish switch. Dish Home is only available from 110. SO if you have P170 and only a Dish 300, NO Dish HOME.

I've got Dish 500 and 300 (2 dishes)
