    Dish network is now micro-managed to death. There are few to no freedoms. You can't even idol your van in freezing temps to get warm. Good luck in whatever you do

    VIP 722 2nd TV interferance

    Surprised no one mentioned grounding issue. If the TVs plugged into a power strip, move it to the wall. And even go as far as putting a ground eliminator on the power cord (or just break the ground pin) Bet that fixes it

    My old Dish Network equipment

    Yea, definitely do NOT sell them. Those receivers are still very mainstream. I'm installing a 722 here shortly. If the email is to vague to understand, I'd call a csr to verify

    1000.2 lnb interchangable with 1000.4 ?

    FYI: you can use the 1000.2 lnb on a 1000.4 dish. You just need to cut the tabs on the 1000.4 bracket. Works perfectly fine. Save your money. You will of course need to re-adjust your skew and elevation.

    722, Sling Solo HD Pro, and dish remote access

    Mine works perfect. 722k and HD slingbox solo. I use the dish remote access and can use basically all the functions. You just need to check your options.

    Upgrade package vs Sling adapter vs Netflix?

    Also, get an xbox 360 to stream Netflix. With a fast Internet connection and the hdmi hook-up, you will appreciate the quality of the picture that much more.

    Pole Mount questions

    In Michigan, before we do a pole mount we set it up on a non-pen and call miss dig before we do any burials. You can still get dish in the meantime. Miss dig takes about 5 days to stake the yard. Dish can be out any day after that. Tickets are good for 21 days.

    missing channels?

    Sat 2 feed on the receiver is actually for tuner 1. Just flip it and tuner 1 will be good.

    722 receiver - tv2 connection help

    Home Distribution is your TV2 connection. Run a cable from that to your second TV and it will operate independently from the TV1 connection. You will however need to make sure the 722 Receiver is in Dual mode (not single). You will also need a TV2 remote. Why was there only one TV hooked up to...

    1000.2 and dish pro (not dish pro +)

    Hes right. There are 3 outputs and 1 input on the 1000.2 LNB. You will however need to get DPP Separators for your (2x) 522 receivers, since they will now only require one cable line.

    1000.2 + 61.5 Satellite Dish

    Also if it does have a Twin, look at the front of it to see if its a Legacy, Dish pro or Dish Pro Plus. Dish Pro Plus is the only one that wont work with a DPP 33 Switch. DP Plus: Black label and it says "Dish Pro Plus" on the front. DP: Also a black label but just says "Dish pro" (no plus)...
