    Local HD Error Message

    Soccer Dude - Please do post if you find a solution, as I am faced with a similar situation on my Dad's ViP722. He has it at his second home in Crossville, TN (while his main home is in Nashville, TN). I posted on a thread in this forum because I guessed that the problem stems from his...

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    I'm with ya. I'll just give it a shot. The thing is, I can't unwire the 129 lnb, because it is built into the lnb that came with the 1000.2 - That is, the switch is built into the lnb. and it combines 110, 119, 129 and the 'input port'. That's why I keep asking what happens if I plug in a 129...

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    Got it. Next time I get up there, I will climb on the roof and try to peak out reception on 61.5. Do you have any thoughts on whether I could successfully point that second dish at 129 and plug it into the spare 'input' port on the 1000.2 lnb? Or will that 'confuse' the receiver? I guess in a...

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    Sorry to post twice in a row, but I also just checked the channel lineup for 61.5 from a website called 'lyngsat'. It claims that the channel list was updated yesterday, and it does not list Nashville locals as being on 61.5. It does list them on 129. That would make sense as to why it is not...

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    The HD locals never did work. The install that is having problems is at my Dad's second home in a golf community near Crossville, TN. His main home is in Nashville, TN (about a 2 hour drive away). Dish seems to know that this is a second home, but we have been very reluctant to call them for...

    Trouble receiving 129 with a Dish 1000.2

    Hello - I was searching for a solution to a very similar problem, and registered here because of the valuable feedback. I am trying to fix my dad's setup in Middle Tennessee. He has a 1000.2 dish, and he has a Dish 500 pointed at 61.5 connected to the 'input' port on his 1000.2. The problem...
