What are you using to connect receiver to tv?It sounds like the rca cables are plugged into the wrong output on the receiver.I saw one person with this problem and they had cables connected to HD (R G B) @ receiver and (R W Y) @ TV.Look at the back of receiver and make sure that the cables are...

If you still need a system let me know. steelerector@charter.net

You may want to reread,it states that a monthly fee is not legal.It is not up to the customer/tenant to maintain the dish and wiring.That falls on the property owner,they are the ones that don't want separate dishes at every apartment. Q: If my association, building management...

This must be something that has just started recently.I have personally activated several used receivers with "old" access cards on an entirely different account.I would say no less than 10 or 12 times.Also I don't see what the problem is outside of DTV wanting to get in the customers pocket a...

First go to the setup menu on you receiver and you should see a place to put in your zip code and select dish type.You will then see a screen that will give you the settings for the dish azimuth,elevation and skew/tilt.You dish should have come with a bubble level already in the mast,if so make...

I have installed and activated several used receivers that we took out from the 72.5 upgrade projects.Some have been out as long as 6 months and still no problem.This first mistake most people make is to start asking the CSR questions.Just tell them you either are adding a receiver or are...

You can either install a new line all the way to the back of the receiver,or use a diplexer to combine the signals outside @ the ground block.Then use a second diplexer to seperate the signal inside @ the receiver.For this setup I use the Winegard GS2000A W/Voltage Regulated Diplexer ,they work...

Don't worry phil Dish will screw that up some how too. :D Maybe they need to come up with a SUPERDUPER dish with DP++++++ lnb and 3x4x4x8x? to intergrade all the different receivers.Oh and a couple dozen sw21 switches thrown in for good measure.Don't forget they will need to come up with some...

I would start by checking the receivers for voltage @ satellite input connection.I have seen a lot of receivers that will power up but don't send the voltage out to the dish.Mostly cause from either power surge or near by lightning strike.

speedway, I think you will find that the offer from ebay will be for new customers only.The GAEBOA receiver has the auto detect option but IS NOT 72.5 compatible we went through that when the 72.5 locals were just starting.Some people where saying they worked others said no.Apparently the...

Bottom dish must be on a mast.It will not work the way you are trying you can not slide the dish down the pole then put the second on top.Just use 2 U clamps to mount the mast to the pole for the lower dish.

maximus, You will have to run all 4 lines into your home.If you try to use another multi switch before you go into your HD receivers you will only receive sat 101. rcayers, You can simply use a diplexer if you want to feed OTA to only one tv set.But if you are trying to feed all 4 tvs it...
