    OTA not picking up any channels

    I double-checked this, and I am connected to the correct input. I cannot find this Analog Type option that you speak of. Under Menu 6, I see an option 9 for Local Channels, but that basically just lets me scan for them.

    VIP 722 Use TV2 connection on LCD Monitor?

    The monitor uses DVI. I have VGA/DVI adapters, so that is no problem. Do you know if the TV2 through the coax into the second room is in NTSC, ATSC, or some other format? Most of the converters are specific to one format or are way expensive. For the price of a generic (multi-format?) one, I...

    VIP 722 Use TV2 connection on LCD Monitor?

    I have a 722 which is just hooked into one TV. When the guy installed it, he enabled the TV2 connection so that I can watch it on any cable connection in my house. What I would like to do is use that connection to display TV on an LCD computer monitor that I have in my office/spare bedroom...

    OTA not picking up any channels

    I've got a 722. I am trying to hook up my antenna to the OTA jack on the box, but when I scan for channels, the box doesn't see anything. I know that the channels exist because I can hook the antenna directly into the TV and receive all the OTA channels broadcast in my area. I've called Dish...

    US Open Channel?

    How can I watch this enhanced US Open Channel that Dish is doing with ESPN? It doesn't show up on my guide.

    Program Record Time Off

    I don't think the problem is the network. I've got Tivo over cable, and it is right on. There are a few shows that run until :02 of the next hour or so, but not many. If it happens regularly, I would think it is an equipment bug.

    Dish Signal Quality

    A friend of mine called a local Dish/DirecTV retailer to sign up for Dish, and the retailer told him that he should sign up with DirecTV because it had a better signal. He said that Dish compresses their signal more than DirecTV, and since DirecTV had more satellites now, it was better (PQ)...

    Why do I need a landline?

    Is there a Wifi solution for the 722? I am coming from Tivo, so I have their adapter, but it is USB. Is there one that will work with the 722?

    Why do I need a landline?

    When I call Dish to sign up for service, they tell me that they require a landline phone or else I have to pay a $5 fee. Why? Is there any way around this? Maybe some sort of voip solution that doesn't require me to get a $20 phone line to avoid a $5 fee. Any ideas?

    Strategy for getting out-of-market local channels

    Honestly, it doesn't matter. I am more interested in getting the out-of-market FSN and SportSouth without blackouts. If I get locals in HD, that is just gravy, since mine are not available in HD.
