    Problems with ABC HD in Dallas and dish 811

    when did WFAA switch from UHF to VHF? But I don't think it matter since my antenna is both UHF and VHF. It has to be the damn interference. This is bad. I'm watching ABC Monday Night football right now, and the sound just got shut off completely by itself after a few minutes viewing...

    Problems with ABC HD in Dallas and dish 811

    Hello all, I recently have some problems with ABC Dallas. The picture is jerky and it also make squeaky noise much like when the signal is low or when it's raining outside. The strength signal is normally at 80 to 85%. I have reset the receiver many times without success. All other...

    My 811 is acting weird.

    Sorry, page 25 in my manual has nothing about this. I must have a different manual. The front page of the manual said "Dish HD satellite System user guide". I also looked all over this manual, and there's nothing that said how to change the remote channel.

    My 811 is acting weird.

    How do I do this? I'm at the screen, but it won't allow me to do anything. I can just click "OK" The remote address is at 1. thanks

    Does 811 come with DVI?

    got my 811 installed couple weeks ago and no dvi. only component. I guess it depends on which box u get.

    My 811 is acting weird.

    I don't know if my neighbor have the same receiver or not, but my 811 is changing the channels by itself the past couple days. Weird stuff or could be the damn 267 update??? How far does the 811 remote works? That would be a pain if my neighbor have the same receiver.

    811 Side black bar question?

    Is there a way to set the 811 to be on stretch mode when view OTA and normal mode when viewing others channels view dish instead of keep pusing the * button?

    811 outputs

    Hello all, I'm planning to hook the DVI output of the 811 to my plasma (mainly to watch High Def). Also, I will hook the S-video output of the 811 to the plama (mainly for standard digital channels). My question is does the DVI output automatically disable the s-video output in the 811...

    Just had my 811 installed.

    Well, my schedule is for tomorrow morning. Hope it goes well. Anyone know that the installer would give me a DVI cable or I have to purchase it separately? Also, I bought an external terk roof antenna for OTA HD, does the installer install that for me too? or do i have to do it myself...

    I'm getting 811 install in one week, what should I expect?

    simons, I don't think there is a need for them to rerun the rg-6 cables. Every units of my condominium are pre-wired with rg-6 cables. Like protoboard said, I'm just affraid that the 811 caused problems with OTA signals if I use a combiner. Is it always best to use separate line?
