Sounds like D* is experiencing some of the same tactics E* has had to face with contract negotiations with providers. :)

My 722 ends up needing to be re-set every day. Sits in a very open shelf under the TV, and I never hear the internal fan run, but do hear it while re-setting. I see other posts with higher temps than mine. Anyone having overheating issues? Do you also loose picture and sound and have to re-set...

Hello All, I am having what as I suspect to be overheating issues with my 722. I really do not understand why would overheat. It is out in the open in an open cabinet under my TV. Fully open in the front, sides and back. What I experience is either loss of picture but still have sound, or...

Give the guy a break raoul5788. He asked a simple question. Have you ever owned a business and had to move it, let alone a restaurant? I can only imagine all the details Su Meri had to deal with. How about we encourage people to have a good experience posting questions here instead of biting...

Dish DP receivers now run a higher voltage, and can accept longer runs. Just make sure you use a good RG-6 coax with good fittings at each end. Also, think about how you are connecting the receiver to your TV's. Going HD? if so, you will need to get the receiver near the TV. HD cables such as...

Wow! Do I follow you right? Do you have switches on several levels of your home? If so, explain how you have them connected.

Keep in mind the 301 remembers the result of the last check switch, and displays that result when you pull up the check switch. Not until after you perform another check will it display the correct reading from it's current installation.

A dish pro LNBF will have at least 2 outputs for you. Run another RG6 coax from the unused output from your LNBF to your second receiver, then perform another "check switch". After that, you will be back in business!

Did that.......Was trying to get a inovative thinker from this group that has tried this before. Crestron only offers IR control, anything else and you are on your own to figure it out.

Running a "check switch" with both 110 and 119 satellites recognized will be the only way to get it working properly. Do you have solid single runs of RG6 cable from the LNBF to each receiver with no breaks? If yes, try switching your cables at the LNBF and see if the problem changes to your...

Hey all, anyone ever been able to find a way to control any of the Vip receivers thru the USB or Ethernet ports? DirecTV has been suporting this for years now, but I would like to do the same with my Dish Vip 211 and 722 thru Crestron. Any suggestions?:confused:

Another common mistake is loosening the dish too much to move it side to side. You want the bolts just loose enough to turn the dish. Too loose and you are indirectly changing your elevation angle. Also, what do you see in front of the dish at your 170'? Have any trees? If all else fails, do you...
