    Just an update on our progress (or lack of) on our signal. A service tech manager came out today and was stumped by what he saw.

    Picture formatting Our set up for the screen is fine. Believe me, we've been through this with Dish several times. We're very aware of how our picture should be. It doesn't matter where it is set. Like I mentioned in other posts; the 2nd t.v. is a regular 4:3 screen t.v. and the picture...

We have another tech coming out next Monday, but I was hoping to get some input from anyone who may have had this similar problem. Dish seems to be unable to fix the problem: We recently upgraded our...
