    Need Your Help Please

    I am the poor soul that fried his SWM LNB last week while camping. http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/swm-tuner-troubles.339271/ I am out on Solid Signals website attempting to purchase a new one, http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?p=SL3-SWM&ss=213839, and it says I need the 29 volt...

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    Except not in this case. Plugged the receiver in, in the house, and it works just fine. Definitely the SWM LNB in this case.

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    If this happens a lot, why would DTV not allow the system to boot up using one of the available tuners, rather than locking it to tuner 1? Sounds like some poor programming. Sounds like I should buy 2 SWM LNB's, so I have a spare or haul around my old LNB and B-band converter.:(

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    I upgraded from the old 1 cable, 1 tuner setup, which was bullet proof for camping. Used it for years. I changed to SWM, to eliminate the receiver reconfig when it is moved back into the house. I cannot remember if I saved the old LNB or not. I will look when I get home.

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    That is what is so maddening about this scenario. Without a functioning tuner 1 in the LNB, you cannot do a thing!

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    It didn't work at all when attached to the tuner 2 port. I think tuner 1 on the DVR is the only that works with SWM?

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    SL3 and power inserter. It has worked fine twice this year, which is all it has been used since new.

    SWM Tuner Troubles

    I had a dilemma this past weekend and I am looking for some help. I have an HR24-500 that I take in my RV. When I turned it on, I could only get signal on tuner 2. Nothing on tuner 1. Thanks to the inability of telling the receiver to only use tuner 2 (it uses tuner 1 in single mode), I was...

    Genie Upgrade Questions

    One more question that is relevant. The DVR I want to keep is an HR22-100. Will the Genie be able to see the programs recorded on this thing through the whole home setup?

    Genie Upgrade Questions

    Forgot about the activation part. Hmm. They are HR21 and HR22, so maybe he will just leave them. I sure wish they made it easy to transfer that stuff.

    Genie Upgrade Questions

    I have an install of Genie, SWM, and whatever else scheduled for Wednesday. I am replacing 2 older DVR's and wondering if the installer will be hauling those away, or can I keep them for a week or so, so I can watch my recordings that are on them? Anyone know how DTV handles these situations?

    RV Setup Question

    I would think D would find it a bit weird I would need 4 receivers for an RV? I think I would feel a little weird requesting such a thing, but it is a good idea, if I could get past the weirdness and get it past a CSR.

    RV Setup Question

    Well, since I have local channels available in Boise and they are located on 61.5, I did not want to haul around and setup 2 dishes. In order to get nationals, I had to create the RV account, which of course requires me to add a package of channels. You can't have national channels if locals...

    RV Setup Question

    I have had 2 accounts, one of them being my RV account. Since DTV has put the screws to the RV account, by only letting me turn it on and off twice a year now, I am thinking of getting rid of it and using a receiver on my house account, thus eliminating the $45 a month cost. This brings up a...
