hi there - i have a 222 receiver that keeps shutting down after being on for an hour or so. the front panel lights alternate going on and off. i power cycle it and it boots up, but not for long. is there something that can be causing this and be remedied or are we nearing end of life?

Thanks Geronimo for the post. It's not the amp - same # of stations either way. I'll check the run when I get a bit more time later.

I have two receivers active on my acct - a 772k and a 222. I have an outside antenna that pulls in locals from another market than my dish package, but the number of stations that I receive on both is substantially different. The 722k pulls in about 45-50 and the 222 is pulling about 14...

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately no difference in air vs cable. I think I may be out of options to improve quality of TV2, but it's acceptable at this point. Thanks again for all of the forum help!

It's grainy, but not that bad. I can live with it if this is the easiest way to set up the three feeds. Fishing another cable is not an option at this point.

Hi Bob - just had an opportunity to try your setup and it works. Only downside is snowy picture on TV2. I tried different modulator channels, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. I am using a splitter for the HBO cable box/TV2 feeds - should I be using a diplexer instead? If not, is...

I'm not having any issue using the triplexer for the TV2 feed - picture is clear. I tried to combine the HBO cable feed and the OTA feed via two diplexers and it doesn't work - whichever one is connected to the SAT port is not getting a signal. I'll try the satellite feed and OTA feed with the...

i have a question about incoming coax cables to my 722 receiver. where the receiver is located, i have two coax cables - one is for an OTA which runs directly to the OTA module on the receiver and the other is the satellite feed to a triplexer (which takes the TV2 signal out). i have an option...

Thanks harshness and jarvantgroup for your replies! The 222k is in the basement and the dish cable comes in the house in the basement as well. I do have the cable for OTA in the attic running to the upstairs BR. I'm beginning to think this is a bit above my pay grade and probably just adding...

Hi Bobby - I just got around to trying this and I'm not sure of the setup - I seem to come out short one input somewhere. Let me see if I can explain how I tried to connect it and you can let me know where I am going wrong. As a reminder, I have an OTA in the attic and a TV2 in an upstairs...

I have an OTA in my attic and all of my cable distribution through the house is in the basement. I was able to bring the OTA cable into a vacant second floor bedroom that had an outlet that ran to the basement and was able to distribute to dish boxes from there. My issue is now that bedroom is...

i'm looking to get nfl, red zone and nba.

I am in the NYC area and do not receive my regional sports networks (MSG/SNY). I'm sure someplace will freeze before any negotiation becomes successful! I was told by Dish that the minimum qualifying package for multi-sports was 120+ and if I understand the packages, the only difference...

I have two cables coming in off my dish 61.5/72.7 that connect to two 222's (too many 2's!) I would like to add another 222 and wanted to see what the options are to connect. Do I need to run a third cable to the lnb or can i connect the two incoming cables to a dpp44 switch and just run the 3...

i am in the nyc area and thought those locals were on 110 and 119 - not sure if the hd of those channels were on 61.5. should i just point the other dish from 61.5 to 129 to say on the same arc?
