    Another Searching for Satellite -771 problem

    Here's a twist on the 771: I have 3 units going. I'm getting all the channels on 2 of them. The third receiver is not finding 25% of the channels., like 229 / 628. The connections seem fine. Think the receiver is going?

    Technical question re: D*/Cable/OTA

    Just to clarify, I have 4 TVs hooked up to 4 D* receivers. I'm guessing that I'll end up keepng the cable TV, but run it as a seperate line to one of the TVs for emergency purposes. I was hoping that someone has experience with my specific set-up. Thanks for the input.

    Technical question re: D*/Cable/OTA

    I have D* and basic cable (its free) running to my TVs and D* receivers through the same coax. It works fine. I had an installer put up a HD OTA antenna so I can get my locals in HD. The D* and cable still work, but the OTA signals do not come through. The installer is guessing that the...

    Help! Neighbor wants to steal my signal!

    So far I haven't seen anyone give any credit to he landlord. The assumption is always that the LL is clueless about how D* works. The LL might very well know that there's no reason that they couldn't get a receiver, take $5/mos it off the rent and hook up.

    YES Network ?

    You can get YES, but am I mistaken in assuming that the Live games will be blacked out, since MLB thinks that a fan must live in a teams DMA or become a fan of the team in the DMA where he/she lives? Either way, the question remains, does D* spotbeam the NBC-HD East signal?

    Searching for signal with second receiver??

    I had the same problem in one room. The receiver would periodically freeze or search for signal. It turns out that a connection was somehow comprimised. I just started at the receiver and loosened and re-attached the connections as far as I could go. Everything has been fine ever since. If...

    YES Network ?

    Suppose I choose option # 2 and used a NY area (not NY proper) address. Now also suppose that I pay for the HD programming and my "local" NBC affiliate is owned by NBC so I can get a waiver. This waiver allows me to get NBC-HD East. Is NBC-HD East spotbeamed so I would not be able to actually...

    H20 Remote

    My H-20's remote is terrible. To do anything takes several attempts. I'm talking about anything. Changing the channel, hitting the Guide botton...Anything. It flat out stinks.:(

    H20 Receiver

    Sorry, if this has been covereged before, but I've got limited time now and I'd like to pick up the "free" H20 today. I downloaded the manual and see something about it needing a "5 LBN Multi-Satellite Dish Antenna - MPEG4 and Ka/Ku Compatable" What is this. I have a 3 (I think). Also, I...

    Expert advise needed

    I've been a member of this board for quite some time, so I know that this is the best place to get advice. I have a problem with one of my DirecTV locations in the house. It is the bedroom, where I have replaced a basic Samsung receiver with one of the original basic RCA receivers that came...

    Rain Fade/Loss

    Pardon my ignorance, but what is "peaked". Is it as simple as climbing up on to the roof and re-aiming the dish, or should I call a local installer to do it? Thanks.

    Rain Fade/Loss

    I'm in the midwest, with a clear view of the SW sky. I get a signal loss every time we get rain. I'm not just talking about a thunderous downpour, but even a steady drizzle. However, it seems that I often get a couple of the channels fine, I think TBS is one of them. Could it be a problem...

    Resetting DCT210

    I spoke to soon. After 2 days it reverted to its old tricks and now again goes to the old channels as well as the new ones. DH is about to blow it up, (as well as me). Push channel 3 on the remote and get a blank screen, then need to channel up to get our channel 3. :mad:

    Resetting DCT210

    Actually, it was the small reset button located next to the card slot. I reset it and it nearly reset perfectly. The only problem is that it refuses to use the cable stations for my provider. I guess I'll have to get used to the competing cable provider's numbers for this box. Thanks for...
