    I sure can, if you tell me what options to go to do so. I have run the initial setup a few times but I didn't see specifically what screen to bring up that option.

    Hello all. I am sorry I have not gotten back sooner. There was a hurricane/tropical storm in my area here in louisiana. I finally got up on the roof and adjusted properly.

    Unfortunately it is no longer covered under warranty. The installation was done over a year ago. I just swapped out broken receivers and FED EX brought the new receiver and I installed it. Thanks again for all the help guys. Hope the alignment solves my problem.

    Thank you so much for the input guys, very helpful. I am going to attempt to realign the dish asap (weather permitting recently). I hope this solves it. Like I said, DTV was little to no help and just kept telling me to "reset my receiver" even when I explained in detail like I did here. I just...

    Thank you for the quick reply! I will try that as soon as I can. It is raining here now (that is not the problem though because it was sunny and clear when the problem started). I will post back if that is what the problem is. I guess it could have moved but I haven't even touched it since the...

    Hello all, I am new to this site. I thought I would give this a try before I got someone from DTV to come out and charge me 50 bucks for what might be an easy fix. So here it goes: I have had the same receiver for years. This one: It recently stopped working completely, it was really old...
