    No longer supporting vacation homes?

    It sounds like the audit team caught up with the OP. I wonder if the receivers at the vacation home are connected to phone or internet. That would be a big red flag to dish.Anyway a single 211 can be called a tailgater and allowed.Many people use their "tailgater" at their vacation homes. Now...

    help with garage setup.

    Dont assume you have a bad lnb by doing a check switch. A newly installed system (even a used one) will need to be aligned. A cheap $20 signal meter is what you need.You will be able to verify power (the meter will buzz) and then align the dish. Only then if you cant get signal at the dish could...

    Hopper instal ?

    They already do with the adapter. It is not supported by dish so you will not get the installer to do it.

    in motion dish

    The Winegard RT-4035 has a primary and a secondary output it says in the instructions Connect a coax cable from the “Satellite in” port of the primary receiver to the main port on the back of the RoadTrip Mission unit. For a two receiver or dual tuner (DVR) installation, connect a second coax...

    Strange signal loss behavior?

    I have a couple questions.What kind of switch? A 722 doesn't need a switch unless you have more than 1 dish or more than 3 receivers.What kind of connectors did you put on the cable. The connectors better be compression type.

    Incomplete (?) Hopper install

    I was thinking earlier was this his 1st h/j install or his last? Then I read he has "only installed 10" That makes me think its closer to his last install.Leaving an install not working is not acceptable IMHO.Equipment failure is one thing but leaving something out?

    Line of sight issues

    whats the roof pitch on your house?Most dishes can be mounted on the back side and shoot over the house with no trouble.I do that frequently because of point of entry and grounding.

    My Dish 500 system problem

    you may have one tuner failing in the receiver. I have seen that before. You have to check the rest first.

    My Dish 500 system problem

    What are your signal strengths? Just saying good signal is not good enough to help.Rain fade is normally and alignment issue but it could be water getting into a cable connection. When you give us you signal levels make sure you give us the transponder and satellite it will vary.

    How is it determined which TV channels I receive?

    If DMAs are determined by ratings and you only get the station from 1 provider through your dish how can the ratings from that station change.The viewers have no choice.A better way would be to determine the transmission footprint of the station and call that the DMA.The people in the areas that...

    Of course we can all be assured the cable is grounded properly so the interference will be shunted to ground.

    211k with external hard drive

    The IOMEGA was one I was going to use for a different purpose. Before buying a western digital I thought I would just try it.Time will tell here in the next couple weeks I should be back to where it originally stopped. If it does Im going for a different hard drive.

    211k with external hard drive

    There was less than 50 recordings. It is working now we will see when it gets down to the 122hrs left. Thats where it locked up. It could be the IOMEGA hard drive.I had some formatting issues when I hooked it up. There was and IOMEGA program and a partition I had to remove before the 211k would...

    crackling & poping in sound

    A whole team of engineers likely couldn't tell you what caused the problem.Like with most computers, software and repair issues most of the time we only can tell you how to correct the problem. With reboots,resets and the like and no obvious hardware problems I guess its just a glitch. Thats why...

    211k with external hard drive

    I deleted about 10 hrs of recordings and now its working. There was 122hrs left to record on the clock but it wouldnt record or pause like the buffer had filled up the drive or the drive has a problem. I guess Ill find out when I get down to the 122hr point again.I want to avoid reformatting for...

    211k with external hard drive

    I have a 211k with a 1tb hard drive that will no longer record. The 20 hrs of recorded material playback just fine but it will no longer record.The receiver goes through the motions and even in the history will show that it has recorded but it has not recorded.I have done several of the remove...

    New DISH subscriber.... storm signal loss on satellite 72?

    It doesn't take much movement to go from 50s to 20s.The best signal on one satellite doesn't mean the best signal on all satellites. Its kind of a give and take situation.A properly aligned dish however will be very reliable.Since you are a new subscriber either the dish was not peaked correctly...

    3 hopper and 2 joey on one account

    Just because it can be done will it be allowed to be done?Maybe DIRT can chime in but an install like that will be out of the normal range and likely have a big $$$$ attached to it.

    HOPPER RECORDING TO DVD?

    The walls are so thick and high you will never get through. An external HD can only be played back on a dishnet receiver on the account it was recorded on. You cant hook it up to a computer and you cant even hook it up to your neighbors disnet to watch whats recorded. If you want to make a DVD...

    Need to move TV and decide how to run cabling.

    I would go for a 2 Hopper 2 Joey setup. You will have a very similar setup with similar restrictions.Everyone gets HD then. Dont let them fool you with a 1 hopper 3 joey setup it wont be the same.

    722k acquiring signal every day, is my strength on 129 the problem?

    If you have an off air antenna hooked up take it off and delete the off air channels as a test.I recently had to unhook my antenna because of weak signal causing random reboots with the 722k.Trying that will help you narrow down the problem.

    211K With Superdish can't activate ??

    You have a superdish?My first thought is get rid of that thing. Keeping it is just asking for trouble with the lnbs on that thing. No repointing your dish.It was designed for 110 119 121 your not going to repoint for 129. The last time I tried to activate a 211 without seeing 129 it wouldn't go...
