Thanks Matt. I will give that a try a bit later. What are the downsides of Band B, if any?

I'm having some trouble with distance of my 6.3 UHF Pro remotes to our 622 DVR. I'm seeing references on the internet that Band B would give us better distance and should be possible with the 622, however I can't seem to get it to work. Is it possible to use that combination? If so, can...

I know this *used to* work. Then there was a period where DishComm stopped working altogether for me. Now, DishComm is working again, but for some reason won't share the caller id information. Any hints for fixing this?

I have a 622 and 722 DVR in the house. The 722 has a phone line connected and caller ID is working. The two DVR's can see each other via DishComm, but the caller ID is not showing on the 622. I'm not sure what might be going on? Is there any way to fix this? Thanks, Craig

That was it. The picture looks significantly better when it isn't all stretched out of whack. Thanks!

Doh. I forgot about that. Will try it and see if that works (crossing fingers)

I recently noticed that the HD picture from my Vip 722 is being chopped off on the top and bottom by quite a bit. Thinking it was my TV, I attempted to adjust this morning only to find that the chopped off portions aren't really being sent to the TV. I have the DVR hooked to the TV using...

Well, that sucks. :-) Thanks.

I see references to the problem. Has anyone come up with a solution? Do I just need to disconnect the power cable on both receivers and do a hard reset?

I'm not exactly sure when it stopped working, but the DishComm setup I had working between my Vip 622 and Vip 722 DVR's is no longer transmitting caller ID information. That is a huge bummer. I remember when I first set it up, the automatic scan didn't work and I had to add the other...

I have a 622 and 722 in the house. I have a couple of questions about the way they behave... wondering if the behavior can be altered. 1) Is there a particular reason that OTA stations cannot be shown on TV2? I've connected an OTA antenna for my step daughter to get her shows on The CW. Is...

I was afraid asking the antenna question was probably dangerous. Can anyone answer concerning the wiring part of things? Given that I'm not interested in a large antenna, can anyone offer a better suggestion than the square shooter or the lacrosse?

Thanks for the reference. That looks pretty darn easy. A couple of other questions to make sure I do this correctly. Would I pair the 4032IFD with a 4001IFD (times two) inside the house? Is that the correct match? Does it matter whether I place the 4032IFD before or after the ground block...

I should add that for both receivers, the TV2 outputs are being fed back through my house's previous cable to other TV's. Unfortunately, I can't use my home's cabling to distribute the OTA signal.

I feel like an idiot with this stuff. I've asked a few different questions in this group and I still can't quite get it into my head how to fit all of this together. I have 622 and 722 receivers in my house connected to the Dish 1000 dish. There are two lines coming from the satellite that go...
