    Can I add 61.5 sat myself?

    Thanks for the link on how to add another dish ant. I see now I have a Dish 1000 ant installed after we upgraded to HD service and had 3 receivers at that time. I just threw out a single DTV dish :mad:. Our contract is up in a month so we may just jump ship after that. I think I'll lurk...

    Can I add 61.5 sat myself?

    _Thanks for the reply. I must be mistaken about the antenna model, that's what shows up on the 'Point Dish' screen and there's no model info printed on the antenna itself. I have a DP34 switch installed because we have 2 receivers. _I'm not keen on having another dish antenna installed, and...

    Can I add 61.5 sat myself?

    I live in Cleveland (zip 44111), can I add the 61.5 sat myself for local HD channels? My check switch indicates I'm receiving 110 & 119 currently. A level check of 61.5 transponder 1 indicates a sporadic level of 57. I have the following: Dish 500 triple LNB DP34 switch Vip622 rcvr

    Volume One, Show Five

    We listened to show #5 today at work. We all own both HD formats. We collectively disagreed with most everything that was stated regarding both HD-DVD and Blu Ray. If MasterDeals thinks this year is going to be the deciding year for a clear winner in the format war I think he should stop...

    Your thoughts on our Podcast

    Hey guys, I really appreciate your effort with this! So take this in the good spirit it's intended: 1) Stop using the words 'basically' and 'actually' - period. 2) Don't start a story and then preface or qualify it 20 seconds into it. 3) Don't use so many pronouns when discussing multiple...

    VIP622: rev L433 failed HDMI to AX-100 pj

    I just phoned Dish tech support, who reports they're aware of the problem and actively working on a fix. The CSR read off a list of HDMI issues that covers the video problem, I was unaware that there were audio problems with hdmi as well. -Ward

    VIP622: rev L433 failed HDMI to AX-100 pj

    I've noticed that my Panasonic AX-100 projector will no longer work via HDMI since the last firmware update to L433. Well, at least not above 480p. EDID and HDMI analysis responses read good yet video turns on and off every 1 second. Same cable works with PS3 bluray 1080p/60 source. I'm...

    VIP 622 - TV2 AR has horz squeeze?

    Thanks David. That's it - I'm in Single mode with a 16:9 projector as my primary display. No biggie, I can't stay awake long enough in bed to be annoyed with the 4:3 set being squished. -Ward

    VIP 622 - TV2 AR has horz squeeze?

    My TV2 output to a SD 4:3 crt tv has a squeezed horizontal picture when viewing SD channels. There are black bars on either side of the picture. What did I miss in the setup? HD channels render correctly btw. Regards, Ward

    VIP622 HDMI audio output capabiltiy?

    I've read here that the 622 only offers 2 channel audio via HDMI due to hardware issues. Can anyone tell me why? Is there a work around for multichannel HDMI output using an AV receiver as the decoder vs LPCM? Can anyone id the IC they used for the HDMI output? And what is Line vs RF mode for...

    VIP622 handling of OTA-HD reflections?

    Well, I think I'll change ANT inputs to analogue and see if there's any ghosting that would indicate signal reflections on the only HD channel (VHF) I can't receive. I'm using rabbit ears (VHF/UHF) and live within 8 miles and <30° of all towers. I'm not sure why only one (CBS) VHF station...
