    Young and The Restless not Recording?

    My wife noticed this last week. We just created a new timer for it, and no issues since. I have done this several times for other timers over the years as well. Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

    Wally Questions

    A couple questions on the Wally. Can it be swapped in place of a VIP722k without any needed changes? If enabled as a DVR is it possible to easily swap between the tuners? Thanks.

    Upgrade question

    No Joey needed at this time, just looking at options as the hard drive on the 722 is starting to die on me. Thanks for the quick answers. Sent from my SM-G955U using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Upgrade question

    would replacing a VIP722k with a Hopper with sling be as simple as simply swapping the receivers or are wiring changes needed?

    Channel shows as nothing.

    Woke this morning where the guide and other 722k receiver functions all were working but when I turned to a channel I simply got a blank screen. Did a check switch and it told me I as missing a satellite. Rebooted and everything seemed to be back to normal. So is my 722k on its last legs or...

    Is DISH Retiring the 722?

    They should keep the marsupial trend going.... Maybe koala, possums, opossums, Tasmanian devil or my favorite the wombat

    722k issues

    Big Thanks to Dirt Just want to give the DIRT team a big thank you. After having the LNB replaced I still had the same problem and quickly got a new receiver sent out. So far no more signal issues.

    722k issues

    Had my wife run the check switch and everything ran smoothly there. Was there anything specific I should have had her looking for?

    722k issues

    Lately i have been seeing a lot of signal loss resulting in the loss of portions of recordings. The dish has a clear view of the sky. A reset sometimes will help alleviate the issue for a time, but it always comes back. Is the 722k dying on me? Signal strength is hi 70's and average temp is...

    Install Question

    I am currently looking at possibly switching over to Directv and was wondering if there was anyway that I would be able to use the mount that my current dish uses? It is currently mounted on my chimney. Previously I have been told that as that the dish is mounted to the chimney and that it...

    Discovery Channel timers screwed up, anyone else?

    I saw this problem on my old 622 as well and now see it on my 722k. Was told once to delete the timer and recreate it which works part of the time.

    Pay Up Front

    When I attempted to switch to Directv several months ago they charged my card before the install. When they wanted to put the dish roughly 20 feet into my yard I cancelled and it took two weeks for them to process the refund.

    Lately I have been seeing a lot of distortion/pixelization on my 622. I especially see it when I am watching something I have recorded. the problem will usually be for only a second or so and then everything is back to normal. I also see it when watching something live, but not nearly as...

    Abundance of no info available

    seems to have cleared up after the check switch, although several timers now are recording episodes that clearly aren't new.

    Abundance of no info available

    This evening when I sat down to watch tv I pulled up the guide and nearly everything that is an hour or more in the future shows as "No info available". Non of the shows that should record this evening are showing on the scheduled. I have cycled the power on the 622 twice with no luck. Any ideas?
