    DISH -VS- VOOM - A Settlement has been reached!

    Mo&Fo is representing Dish on this one. I don't know all the procedural angles, but perhaps it is a delay tactic or covering their bases. You generally have to make the trial by jury request early on, but can withdraw it if no objection is raised by the other side.

    DISH -VS- VOOM - A Settlement has been reached!

    Either side may generally request a jury trial. Usually a trial date if by jury will be set further out. I would venture that in this case due to the technicalities involved in sorting out this (dis)agreement, the parties would prefer a decision by someone better versed in these matters and not...

    Getting VIP 722 online

    Will this work if the Dish receiver is plugged into a surge protector?

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    What I meant was that it would have been lagniappe (i.e. a small gift) if I could have moved the recordings directly from one receiver to the other and bypass the EHD. :) The tech came over yesterday afternoon, put the OTA module in, and inserted two diplexers, so we now have OTA on the 722k...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Wishful thinking. That would have been lagniappe.

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Paid the fee within the first month it was available so I can move recordings off the 622 to a stand-alone hard drive. I was planning on moving those 622 recordings to the hard drive and then moving them to the 722. Are you saying there is a way I can move them directly from the 622 to the 722...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Great, now you are making me think harder about swapping my 622 upstairs with the 722k since the 622 runs the TV2 that I have. But I know that is going to be a pain to move the recordings, redo my Harmony remote and get the settings like I want for the 722k.

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    I called the installation company (they had left me a voice mail yesterday to make sure everything was okay with the install) and communicated about the OTA antenna and diplexer issue. They were very nice and after I explained the situation, they got Dish on a conference call. Dish initially...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Thanks for the replies. I have now gone into the attic to see what that device was that he put in and it is only a connector. No magic box. So it looks like I need to insert two diplexers (or band-pass splitters). I thought that diplexers do the role of band-pass splitters since the ones I...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Sorry for the confusion. A diagram would be better, but I guess I would have to draw one and then scan it and upload it to a hosting site to get that to work. Would that be correct? I think that his original thought was to backfeed the TV2 signal like you were mentioning so perhaps that is...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    Thanks, TheKrell. I am getting the OTA to the 622 directly fed from the antenna (which has a splitter on it) as a separate line to the 622. Reading your response, perhaps I need to complicate what he did and perhaps it wasn't a diplexer as I don't see the need for it given the scenario I...

    722 - SAT 1 & 2 and OTA on One Coax?

    I finally went through the process of setting up a 722 receiver in the MBR instead of just running TV2 to it from my 622 since we now have an HDTV in the MBR. The limiting factor is that I have only one coax line that can access the MBR on the first floor from the attic. The installer that...

    Sound issues with FOX chicago

    Had the same issue with Astros/Rangers last night for most of the game on FSN Houston. It was well over two seconds off. Most I ever remember.

    Vip 622 Chords Question

    I understand that the sound will work as stereo, but not as 5.1 using HDMI until the next software patch. Therefore, you need to use optical to obtain 5.1.

    I noticed the same thing and I am listening to it OTA. I only noticed it during commercials.
