    Troubleshooting a headend system

    Wow! Sounds like a mess. The power issue is strange...does it only happen on the bank of mods for channels 36-49? Or does the power go out in the whole room? Are you using a meter to balance the system or just going off of picture quality? Given the power and channel issue, make sure the system...

    Having EHD Issues with DISH and CSRs are unable to help

    Fixed soon? I noticed this issue almost a year ago when I cancelled hbo...didn't have much recorded and rarely watch tv from the joey location so it wasn't too big of a deal to me. I figured they would have fixed it by now.

    PTAT Recording When Not Enabled

    The problem I have seen since the last update is that if one tuner is showing the 4 locals, then another tuner is changed to a local, the second tuner may show individually that it is on a local and it becomes difficult to get off of the local. Instead of the ptat-like tuner showing multiple...

    rsn's on hopper

    That's what I'm looking for, thanks. I would like to meet whover's bright idea that particular issue was...it's not the least bit helpful, just another thing to confuse existing subs.

    rsn's on hopper

    Is there an easy way to get to a rsn instead of using the guide? 429 no longer goes to csn. It goes to 439, btn. The guide now shows all rsn's as subchannels of 412.

    Joey won't link

    Yeah, ready? Unplug the joey from power. Unplug cable from joey. Plug joey into power. When it boots, put in standby (hit power button). Unplug from power. Connect coax cable. Plug into power. Wait for it to boot back up, it should boot back into standby mode. Unplug from power. Plug into...

    Thinking of switching from AT&T to Cable for internet and phone- any input?

    I doubt you can pick between charter or Comcast, only one will have service at your house. Fwiw, i just signed up for Comcast internet, its sweet. I tried through ATT, but it was two weeks out. Comcast had me up and running the same day, but only because I did a self install with a modem I had...

    WildBlue ViaSat1 the real scoop

    None of the five I've put in came in at 12, they all tested about 8 down, 2 up. Being so new I can't believe it's due to network congestion, so not sure what's up, could be the site I use to test. Regardless, web pages load amazingly fast, and video plays smooth.

    WildBlue ViaSat1 the real scoop

    Here's a speed test from a few days ago, I've done 5, all test about the same. It's awesome, I no longer hang my head in shame when showing a custy how fast it is!

    Audio drop outs

    I had a cust with 2 Sony bravias, kdl-50's I think, did the same thing. We ended up finally fixing the issue by getting a software update from Sony for the tv's! Only an issue through hdmi, sound from composites was ok.

    129 HD Even Transponder Issues

    So its not an actual dishnetwork DP lnb, its a generic? I could be wrong, but I don't think those lnbs actually are considered DP, think its actually legacy form. When you switch test a dp single it would say "129 All". A legacy single shows as "129 odd, 129 even". Which way was it...
