Nope, no protection plan for me. It just doesn't make sense. How input 1 picks up both satellites just fine, yet input 2 only sees the 1. ive checked all connections and their all tight. I know installer put in two grounding blocks. It goes from Satellite dish with dual RG-6 to a grounding block...

I thought it was a bad idea to switch the connections around from the triplexer to the receiver? Don't most techs/installers and even Dish themselves advise against doing this? I know I was reading a thread on here, where most people said they wouldn't recommend it? I'm willing to do whatever...

yes, the seperator ( I'm assuming your talking about the triplexer) is hooked up to it and all cables are tight.

Im getting strong readings for each satellite and most transponders. I ensured my cables were all tight, and I have the dish aimed at the settings that dishpointer gave me for my location. When doing the check switch test, this is what I get for the results...... TV1 that goes to the box...

Thanks for the help and input. I'll look into it when I get home. I'll most likely do as bobs said and just pay for the tech to come out

I understand what your saying. I will have to check, I did have the protection plan for awhile. Might still have it. I'm not trying to aim for 110/119. I'm aiming for 61.5/72.7 Now is the spacing on the 1000.2, 9 degrees or 11 degrees? I believe I am aiming for the correct satellites.

I really think that it's my dish. It doesn't seem to be mounted the best. When walking by it on the roof, it moves a bit. I think it needs to be realigned. I'm not sure which eye needs to be pointing at which satellite. I have it locked on now, but it's the wrong satellite I think.. Shouldn't I...

Haha. No I don't believe so.

Problems are happening again. TV1 is now down and no channels work on it anymore. When doing a signal strength test, most transponders dont even show as having a signal. Only one I can get locked was transponder 5 on 72.7, but on the bottom it says wrong satellite 61.5 and has a signal strength...

Behind the 722 is a Triplexer as Aaron mentioned. All cables are hooked up properly and are finger tight. One cable does supply signal to both tuners and it backfeeds to TV2. Nothing was changed from my first post, but now it seems like both TV's are working again. Is my dish more than likely...

I had Dish Network install about a year ago. When installer left, everything seemed to be working properly. Now, it has a vast amount of problems. Our TV2 wasn't working properly and it wouldn't record on the DVR, "almost like it wasn't getting a signal". It would show the record icon with a 2...

Apple releases new versions yearly. I really don't see a huge difference from one version to the next. Biggest thing about the Iphone 5 was the bigger screen and have 4g LTE. I really don't see any huge OMG!! improvements on them that would make me want to buy one every year.
