    Seek and record timers stopped working: sports

    All my seek and record timers for sports teams suddenly stopped working this week. They worked fine since I got my hopper with sling (currently on build s542 nebd) a couple years ago. They are set-up as BRUINS AT and AT BRUINS for example. If I do a search for BRUINS I get no results. If I...

    self install question --> HWS+SJ+J

    Currently have a OWNED 622 fed with a DP34 from 2 dish 500's (61.5 and 72) using the SD modulation for the rest of the house. Kids are finally grown to the point i need more tuners and full HD. Without putting up a new dish / LNB can i run the 2 leads from the dishes to the DP34 (same as...

    bangor locals moved from conus to TID#1132 - no longer appear

    My bangor locals are no longer working today. I'm assuming it's due to the migration of bangor locals from conus to TID1132 (per the uplink report) even though that was several days ago supposedly. Getting the "This channel is not available outside the designated viewing area" message. I...

    Why can't dish use RG6 output with HD

    Seeing how OTA come in on RG6 i know the HD signal can be carried and decoded. Why can dish use the same strategy they used for whole house on the VIP's but send it out as a HD OTA (like) signal instead. It would still meet a lot of peoples needs and would be able to leverage the RG6 wired...

    72 with a dish 500?

    72.7 with a dish 500? So I have a mixed arc setup and have been procrastinating on switching to ea because I own my system and am a mover. Needles to say I'm not having dish come to my house. Seems dish has forced my hand finally. For now can I repoint my 110/119 dish 500 at 72.7 since I...

    HD Locals launch dates?

    I appologize if this already exists, my search was unsuccessful. Is there a published "Plan" for HD local roll outs or does dish just tell us after they have all the contracts finished/space available? It seems to me that SD locals just don't cut it anymore with a lot of people. I am mostly...

    Ok here's my stats for antennaweb: 50 northwoods rd wilton, ny 12831 if you click around on the map you get hugely varying results and i'm guessing i'm in one of the areas that is more blue. All my channels are on the same hill about 40 miles away. I currently have a 80" radio shack...

    622 OTA Solution

    I've seen a few threads here talking about how the 622's OTA isn't as good as the 811 or other brands and some saying it is better. This disperity got me thinking since my 622 was not doing as well as my 811 either. First i checked that I wasn't over amplifying the signal and found i was...

    622 TV2 with IR remote

    I have my 622 in dual mode with a TV2 feed to my TV1's PIP input. I also have a Home Theater Master MX-850 remote (totally awsome remote BTW) but can't figure out how to change channels on TV2 with my MX-850. It has a UHF output but that doesn't work with dish (as far as i can tell). Can the...

    OTA guide info on 622

    I don't get locals on Dish (not available) and my 811 didn't show them until recently ( i think a new software or something allowed it to display). I assumed the 622 would show them too but it is not. Is this definately the case or do i need to rename the channels or something? The 811's...

    signal loss on only one reciever

    I woke up this morning and turned on the TV and my 811 wouldn't lock on the sat. I went into the point dish menu and i'm seeing strengths of about 30-40. I looked on my other receiver and it's fine (80-100). I rebooted the 811 twice with the front panel and unplugged it for a half hour and...

    119 signal drops (1-3 seconds at a time)

    Recently 119 has been dropping its signal then picking it back up constantly. It doesn't matter on the weather or time of day. i did a check switch with no problems. The signal seems to be bouncing a lot. It worked fine for 6 years. Could it be that the LBF is dying? I have a pretty old...

    has any one heard anything else about fox OTA HD crashing endless loop? My 811 started doing this on the Albany NY fox station on thursday (I think). It sounds like FOX is doing something funny with their signal?

    drop outs on OTA with 90% +

    Recently my NBC has developed an annoying habbit of dropping audio continously on and off. The signal strength never goes below 90%. I have seen this on other stations but mostly on NBC. The tower is only 12 miles away. :confused: It worked fine for me until just the last month or so. I'm...

    811 and 4:3 panasonic HD aspect ratio problems

    I am having issues getting my aspect ratios setup right with the above system. I am using the component outputs on the 811. The 4:3 tv wants to default to 16:9 mode every time I turn it off. This just squeezes the picture no matter which way I have the 811 set (16:9, 4:3 #1, or 4:3 #2)...
