Ah, ok. Well if you don't want to be a beta tester, stick with the
receiver that's gone through the update cycle and is working. When
you switch to the latest receiver, that's being an early adopter in
the Dish Network world. Same thing as when you want the latest, just
released smartphone even though cellphones have been around for years.

You don't get it. The "update cycles" are never complete. None of three
receiver models I had have been the "latest and greatest". They were all
on
the market at least a year before I had them.

You think it's OK for the consumer to be the beta tester, sorry I do not
agree.

Well then obviously a year isn't long enough. Try one 3 or 4 years
old if you don't want updates anymore.

I'll consider your advice.
