looking to get in touch with one of the Dirt guys, I can't understand most of the phone people at the call center.

I am trying to upgrade my old 301 to a new Vip 222 with dish turbo ant., I got the new 222 i purchased today and tried to align new ant. the receiver said there was a problem to call dish. I have the protection plan and need to schedule a tech visit to get the ant. lined and new receiver...

thanks for the replies, I was looking to get 2 HD tvs at lowest cost

Would like to upgrade my old two 301's , question is if I get a VIP 222 will I still pay for two receivers? If so, wouldn't it be better to get 2 VIP 211 so I can have HD on two tvs vs. with 222 one HD and one SD. thanks in advance for any help.

thanks guys for the help, didn't know locals HD were on 61.5, will a 1000.4 lnb fit in place of the 1000.2 I now have on the black turbo HD dish?

Would like to upgrade my old 301 to HD, I currently have no contract and own my equipment and would like to keep it that way. I have gotten a new turbo HD black dish for 110,119, and 129, also need to run 2 TVs am looking at the Vip222 but would like more information on it such as: DVR/EHD...

you are right about the settings being slightly off the dish doesn't look right set to dp settings, when you say set up 119 first then skew, do you mean cover the 2 other eyes, and start no skew? thanks for the reply

I measured the distance from lnb eye on superdish, then cut length of arm so that I got the same eye to dish with the new lnb.

I have put a 1000.2 lnb on an old superdish, I had to modify the arm to get the new lnb mounted, question is: what number should I use to aim, especially the skew will it be the same for the larger dish, also I have an old 301 to aim by, will it show all three sats 110, 119, 129. thanks for any...

I'm a do it your selfer and am looking at going HD, I currently have a 301 and a superdish-105, my question is can I put a 1000.2 LNB with an adapter on the superdish? I think the bigger dish would give the 1000.2 LNB a stronger signal. I would add a vip211 to get HD. if I can change my dish...
