    connect 722 to remote tv

    I have two samsung digital TVs. One is connected to a 722 in the LR and one to a 622 in the BR. I would like to disconnect the 622 (because of $17/month!) and just have the 722 control both TVs. I am not getting a signal on the remote tv. I connected the remote tv via coax from the wall to...

    Service Plan

    Hi All, I'm paying $6 per month for the Service Plan. Is this a waste of money? I don't own any of my receivers. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Julie

    ice on dish, no signal

    No supersoakers this time of year in the midwest. I ended up knocking the ice off the edge with the broom handle. I stuck a hair dryer in a shop vac attachment (the straight pieces) so I could reach the dish while standing on the ladder. It took forever, but it worked. I have a huge ice...

    ice on dish, no signal

    Great, thanks for all of your help. I'll try to find a supersoaker at the Marts, if they don't have one, I'll just use the hose. I have a lot of movies on the DVR, but they're the ones that you watch if you're really desperate for anything. J

    ice on dish, no signal

    A supersoaker with hot water? I can stand on a ladder and kind of reach it with a broom handle. I thought about duct taping my hair dryer to the end of the broom handle and trying to melt the ice. Would that work? I'm not so sure I can find a supersoaker.

    ice on dish, no signal

    We had a terrible ice storm on Thursday night. I have at least 3/4" of ice on my dish, which is mounted on the roof. I haven't had a signal since since Thursday night. How can I get the ice off the dish? The temp today is supposed to be around 30 with light snow, but tomorrow it's going to be...
