    Looking to buy new Dish Receivers, need advice/suggestions!?

    Currently I have a Vip722 and an old 301 receiver that isn't hooked up but I want to use. Don't currently have a switch in use(I did have a DP34 I think but it doesn't work with the 1000.2), just two lines feeding into the 722 from the 1000.2 satellite. What I want to do is run two more SD feeds...

    NCAA Football 2009-10 Season

    I think the reasoning of the current AP poll is that Miami beat FSU who beat BYU and Washington beat USC who beat tOSU so that is why tOSU dropped in the ranking and why Miami surged into the top 10.

    Why USC's season isn't over

    Your exactly right, being a Florida fan myself, I realize that as long as you have a decent rank, an early loss doesn't exclude you from the title game. Florida has lost one game in both 06 and 08 and still went on to win, and LSU lost 2 games in 07. There is plenty of football left and anything...

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    Sorry, yet another question. Does 1 receiver, namely, the 722, using 2 seperate cables from the 1000.2 triple lnb to tuner 1 and tuner 2 inputs, provide enough power for all three lnbs? I am kind of wondering if this might be my issue.

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    Hate to drag up old threads, but I thought I would revive this one just to ask a few questions. I never did get 129 in and thought I would give it a shot since football season is in now. On a 722, with a properly set 1000.2, what is the correct order for the readout. Currently, I have 119 - 110...

    Dumb ?: Why doesn't Dish build wifi into receivers?

    Forget wifi, how about a wireless connection to the LNB's, that way you could place your receiver anywhere in your house. Of course, I realize the logistics for this are a nightmare. You still have to power the LNB, you will need a large about of bandwidth available to the LNB compared to what...

    It's now 3pm and Dish is still not here for the 8-12 Install

    I feel your pain, I went through the whole thing with the technician not calling or showing up in the time window, and he finally arrived at my house at 8 PM. You wouldn't happen to be in the North Florida or Jacksonville area by chance?

    119 - 110 - X - 61.5 Only have 61.5 so I can watch my HD in the meantime from the other dish. No luck earlier before I thought up the bright idea to plug it into the lnb in port.

    Got the separator, fixes the switch error but still no 129.

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    So I do need a seperator? Or can I just run two cables directly from the triple lnb to the sat 1 and 2 input? In the meantime, does only having one cable straight from 722 to the triple lnb port 1 cause problems in locating 129 as far as a point signal/switch test is concerned?

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    Just re-reading over all of this, I don't have a seperator, I do/did have a dp34 switch with two cables running from it to the receiver that I am currently bypassing and currently have one direct cable running strait from the 722 to the 1000.2. Does this hurt my finding 129? I am currently...

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    What installation manual? LOL:) It didn't come packed with one, but I pulled a PDF for installing it, and also used dishpointer.com as well. According to dish pointer, for 32066 you need 135.4 skew, same thing in the manual PDF. I have been trying to raise and lower the skew a bit to see if...

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    I tweaked the signal a bit more for 119, making sure its coming over the center lnb and I got up to 70+ on those, but now when I check signal for satellite 129, I get wrong satellite 119. Any suggestions on how to adjust it from this information, or is this helpful at all on how to further...

    New Dish 1000.2 Installation Help

    Got my 1000.2 in today, and seems to be working. However, I haven't been able to get 129 with it, just 110 and 119. I have a 722 receiver, do I need to run two cables off of the lnb to the receiver. Also, about not getting in 129, currently I am running just one cable from port 1 on the lnb...
