O.K. Great! I understand. Thanks!

So are you saying that if someone has Dish Network and also an OTA antenna it rebroadcasts some type of signal?

Oh yeah, I also pick it up in my minivan!!!

When I turn any television in my house to channel 19, I get the Dish Network symbol floating around with the "press select" underneath it. I don't even Dish Network at my house!! Can someone please explain this to me? I don't even know of anyone around me that has Dish Network either.

I don't know if anyone has already talked about this or not, but I scanned my HD locals with the TV2 Antenna in the OTA HD port and I got HD locals with a strength of about 65-70. Would a cable TV amplifier boost this signal?

Dish Network internal techs in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia start at $11.00 hr. and work 4 days a week. Everything is paid for except work boots. All the tools and supplies are given to them along with the use of a work van with a company gas card. I know for a fact, the techs here are...

Before the separator, you should always have the ouputs from the separator going directly in the receiver.

Yep, I have a Dish 1000 with a DP Quad and a 44 switch because I have a 211, 625, and a 311 receiver.

The DP Dual looks at the 129 satellite and the DPP Twin looks at the 119 & 110 satellite. A little jumper line needs to run from the DP Dual to the additional port on the DPP Twin. That way all 3 sat locations will be running through the switch that is already in the DPP Twin. Then you can run 1...

Have you tried unplugging each receiver for about 15 seconds and then plugging them back in?

You need two lines run to the 622 unless you are using a 44 switch or the LNB is a DPP Twin. Then you would only need 1 line because you could separate.

61.5 should easily be past at least 80. 110 and 119 are not bad, could be a little higher. I have a 211 with a Sony and my setting is 1080 I, but some TV's it is 720.

You don't need diplexers, just a 3 way splitter. Take the TV out line from the receiver and put it in the 3 way splitter. Then the 3 lines coming off the splitter will go to your 3 TV's including the one that has the receiver. Easy as 1.2.3.

If Dish was smart they would just buy TiVo!

How is the line of sight for the 61.5? Are there any tree branches/leaves in the way? The only thing I could think of would be a bad port on the 44 switch, the LNB on the 61.5 could be bad. I would start out by switching ports on the inputs for the 44 switch, switch port 4 with port 3 and do a...
