    Without seeing a visual of what you're referring to I remember a couple years back Dish started using a +/- system for judging proper alignment of a customers dish. If i remember correctly anything +/- 2 or more meant the cust would be recommended to have a service call. So this may be that?

    diagnostics screen?

    on a 522, 622,722, 722k , etc. using the remote- press menu, then press 6 system setup, then press 3 diagnostics, then arrow up or down to counters, then press select. there u can use the page up or down buttons on your remote to scroll up or down. you have just found the screen that is in question! is it some super secret thing that nobody is to know about. or does anybody know what the numbers mean? this has been asked before but the thread got way off topic. so that is way i wrote it this way. did not mean to hijack this thread, but i think this is what the op. had in mind.

    Plug the values you see into this and it will reveal how Dish computes your bill each month

    It very likely is proprietary or internal-use-only information that isn't shared or isn't supposed to be shared. I'm guessing very few people have access else it would have been "leaked" by now. Phone techs seemingly only know what values are in the "good" range or "bad" range.
