    My 622 is too bright on the 2nd tuner

    Thanks, the dish tech came out today and he had no suggestions. We then hooked TV2 coax to a 13 inch tube TV and it was good. So the rf setting may be the problem. Both Panasonic plasma HD units were the same and I could not reduce the brightness from any settings from the remote. I will call a...

    My 622 is too bright on the 2nd tuner

    Wish I had my 942 back but dish told me I could not get any HD so I gave them my,owned 942 for a 100 dollar rebate. I paid 600 dollars for the 942 just 1 1/2 years ago and I would still have it if they hadn't lied to me many times. I tried to get it back while it was still in shipment to El...

    My 622 is too bright on the 2nd tuner

    DISH 622 Tv2 Brightness problems Yes, it is perfect on the HD component output from TV!. My 942 was good on both outputs that TV1 and Tv2. TV2 is composite or RCA (one video and 2 audio) . I have tried 2 /622 receivers and on 2 Panasonic plasma TV's with the same problems.

    My 622 is too bright on the 2nd tuner

    Thanks navychop for your reply. I have the 2nd tuner connected to the plasma tv with rca not coax. But coax and RCA were as bad. I tried contrast and everything to compensate without success.

    cable channels to 942 OTA scan?

    Are cable channels from a 75 ohm input analog? If so, is there a way to watch them through my 942. The analog button is blanked out on the 942 is that a future software? Any suggestions appreciated.

    942 or 921

    942 gets my vote. Bought from DishDepot.com. Had for 4 months now. Very happy. The partial zoom that isn't on 921 is why I sent back a 921 in one week. Partial zoom is on the 811 and without it you have overzoom of the picture on the 921 because it only has full zoom. This is only important...

    Hughes 10-250 vs Dish 921

    Thanks for the feedback RAD, I guess I will live with the 811 and it's darker background. When I put the aspect in normal it fills the screen with perfect hd without distortion. Thanks again.

    Hughes 10-250 vs Dish 921

    I just sent back a 921 which had only zoom not partial zoom which had distortion. Also it was noisy with the hard drive and fan going in the bedroom. Is the 10-250 a better unit with tivo? I have a 811 which has a darker background than the 921 but it has better resolution and has partial...
