    Picture quality continues to go downhill !

    The funny thing is that when I had the Dish 500 the PQ was much better. I got the SD in Sept. 04 to get my locals. PQ went to s_ _ _ after that. I was spoilded in that I had c-band from 1985 to 2001. PQ was super. Oh well, live and learn. I like the ease of operating a Dish Network system, (no...

    Color Fade with Superdish TypeII

    A guy from Dish Network was out today. Could not see my problem. I was told that I could go back to my Dish 500 system that I had no problems with. I like the Super Dish, but the color is still crappy. So far they will not replace the receivers. The problem is there. (REALLY!!!)

    Color Fade with Superdish TypeII

    Would both TV's be affected at the same time? Also would one bad receiver affect a good receiver sense they connected to the same dish/
