    Dish 1000.2 Install

    I am still having issues getting all 3 satalites to show. I find 110 and 119 but not 129. I used a piece of foil and found covering the far right horn on the lnb does not block any signal. Covering the middle horn blocks 110, and covering the far left blocks 119. Can someone suggest where I...

    Dish 1000.2 Install

    I have the single lnb with triple. It says 119 is on left, 110 in middle, and 129 onright. but if I cover all but 119 then do skew I should be good?

    Dish 1000.2 Install

    Dish 1000.2 I am trying to point my Dish 1000.2 . I get strong signal on 110, 119 and then 129 says it is locked on 110 west. How can I lock on 110 with both 110 and 129 lnbs?

    Dish 1000.2 Install

    Due to the direction the dish needs to face, it will be in the way no matter where I put it along the roof. With the tree line in the back, I need the height to clear the trees.....

    Dish 1000.2 Install

    In order to clear the roofline of my house using the standard installation kit with this dish I need the pole to be longer after the elbow up. Can I just bend a piece of pipe giving myself the longer end? I probably need another foot to clear the roof after coming from beneath the eave of my...

    VIP722 TV2

    Just a follow up. I got it to work with my existing equipment. I went through and checked/changed all connectors on each cable. I removed unnecessary splitters, and changed questionable splitter. I set it back to dual tuner mode, and did the check switch again. Now with my dp lnb on a dish...

    VIP722 TV2

    I am told that the 722 needs a dpp44 or dpp33 using a dp LNB. If I upgrade to a 1000.2 dish and dpp LNB, I should be able to skip the dpp33 or dpp44 altogether. Does this sound right?

    VIP722 TV2

    I only have one receiver (722). My 501 was flawless. I switched hoping to get different channels on different tv's. I had a 322 working on this system with no problem. My LNB is DishPro, not plus. I have tried multiple combinations on the DP34 outputs (not passthrough). I am just trying to...

    VIP722 TV2

    I ran two coax cables off of different ports of the DP34. Same issue. I guess it must have to do with the fact it needs a dishpro plus type of switch. Is it bad to run two coax cables to the different tuners until I get the proper switch? Guzz

    VIP722 TV2

    I have a 722 currently running off of a dish 500 with Dp lnb. I realize I need to get the 129 or 61.5 for more hd. But that is not my problem right now. I have the signal going to a dp34 switch. My Problem. TV2 (tuner) cannot see the satalites signal if TV1(tuner) is on. Actually...
