Hi, I do own my dish 500 antenna which I use to watch channel Globo pointed to satellite Echostar 1. I don't have a regular Dish account with cable channels and so on. First dish sent me a new card for my received and I installed it. Now they call me saying they need to replace my dish...

no help?

Not sure this matters, but my box is a Motorola DCT6416 III Thanks

Hi Guys, I am not sure how it works, if the problem is the box or the software, but my current HD DVR box keeps recording repeat shows even thou I set the option to record only new shows. I also set a limit to keep only 5 recording of a certain show, but it doesn't work, just keeps adding more...

Thanks guys. I fixed it. It was just the signal. And usually it is, but the support guy was telling it us something else. I think he just wanted to send somebody over and charge me for it. Anyway, it's all good now. Thanks

Hi Guys, I have what I believe to be a dish500 and the 311 receiver. It's one of those dishes with dp dual, but I only really have 1 there. I only use it to get international channels on echostar 1, satellite 148, transponder 11. Everything was working fine until today. There has been no...

Hi, I had a TW account with TV and Internet for 2 and half years. I had some pretty good deals including free HBO and SHO for 1 year, as well as discount on TV and Internet. My total bill was $93 per month. In April I moved to a new residence. After many calls with TW reps, they agreed that...

Does anybody know? Thanks

Hi, I recently had a new HD DVR box installed by time warner - Morotola DCT6416 III - and they also gave me a new remote - generic tw remote made by UEI. Everything works fine except for the settings button. I would like to use setting to access certain features such as turning close...

LOCKED!!!!!!!!!!!! ABout 205 degrees. I will bring more details later. Thanks so much for helping.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really appreciate it!!

So, do adjust the skew or not? And when you say skew, is it changing on the back of the satelittle dish where it's set to 90 right now? The pole is on a concrete piece already. I put door holders under to adjust the level. With the magnet laser level I think I was able to plumb it. I will try...

My ZIP code is 92649 My dish is the dish 500 with a dual LNB, dish pro do you think I might need to skew the antenna? This site gives me a skew: http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Installation/Satellite-Heading-Calculator.htm It also gives me different angle. It gives me azimuth of 226 and...

I can get to the dish on top of a chair. That's ok. Guys, I am almost giving up. It just doesn't get signal. I used a level with laser to plumb the mast. It's all plumb now. I think I plumbed it right. I used a magnetic level with laser. So I put it on the top of the mast poiting into a...

That pole is what the guy that sold me had. I think that even if I cut the pole, the thing is not plumb. Can't I just compensate the non-plumbness with a change in elevation? I wouldn't be able to cut it too much, there is a building in front of my house. It needs to have a clear sight of the...

Thanks for helping. But I tried all that stuff and it's not working. I find it weird that when I move the dish around it doesn't even show 1 as signal strengh. It never moved from 0. The cable is RG6 new, the cable connector is good (I tested). System interface screen is on SAT 148 and...
