I have been doing my own installs and upgrades since 1999. Just switch to a 1000.4 last week. I buy my stuff online. Not a single f was given.

I installed my 1000.4 last week and it was a bear. I found another thread the mentioned peaking 77 first and this did it for me. I foil covered the other 2 lnb and peaked 77. I removed foil and ran a check switch. The check switch found all three sats. I then fine tuned..

My understanding is that if I lost 129 cause of rain that it would not automatically switch to 72 as a backup. Is that not true? I dont care about locals, I have a good omni for OTA.

Well the reason I was thinking about doing this is the my neighbors trees are starting to interfere with Sat at 129 and cause it to be very weak and when it rains a drop I lose all HD channels. I figured I could point the wing disk to to 61.5 or another. After reading somemore posts, I am not...

Thanks Bob, I assume this would ok then? DISH Network Dish Pro Dual Output LNB (120810) from Solid Signal

I want to put a wing dish on my dish 1000.2 and I have an old Dish 500 with the quad lnbf on it. From discussions I read on the forum this lnbf will not work and I have plugged it into the 1k.2 just to test and sure enough on a switch test it was not recongnized (tried both ports at 119 side_...

When you say IPVOD I assume this means when I press "Dish on Demand" button and browse movies available to download from internet? If so, I disagree, when PPV is locked, the $$ movies on the "dish on demand" require the unlock code. I verified that tonight when I locked ppv again because of this...

Hi Mary, Thanks for the reply. This sounds time consuming for one and I dont believe this will block dish on demand $$ movies across the internet. Are you saying the blockng VOD channel 1 will block dish on demand ppv and allow the kids to download free dish on demand movies??? This also...

I have PPV not locked on my receivers because when its enabled the kids and I have to enter the unlock code to watch NHL Center Ice (which is already paid for). I dont want to give the kids the unlock code, cause they would have the keys to the cookie jar, but they watch NHL Center Ice too...

I have a dpp 1000.2 that currently sees sats at 119, 110 and 129. I guess I can hook up another antenna with a single LNB to the 1000.1. Would I want to point it at 61.5 sat? Would it help with rain fad? Would I get any extra programming? (I have AT250 and HD Plat). Any suggestions for different...

.... however for 211 and 211k's to turn them into a DVR the $40 fee still applies. Yeah I read that in the retailer section on the forums tonight, I am more interested in the ongoing costs and what the wife will see when the bill comes in (LOL) Peace Ice

got it

Thanks Ice

Liquid, do you know if the $3 add. would apply to 211 if I hooked up a EHD? I understand there is a $40 activation fee. guess there will be changes in February for some EHD's?

Should not be a surprise? What a joke. When you start posting a price list on your website with a $ figure next to each product then it would be obvious. As a Dish subscriber since 1999, please don't insult me with your obvious statement. The facts would be enough!! Maybe I missed a big pink...
