    New DirecTV customer with Remote Programming problems

    Well it seems that keying the code in manually did the trick... at least for power. I still can't use the volume buttons as it seems someone dedicated those to only a TV. That's just dumb!

    DPP44 Switch (for 622) - How do I get one? Bribes, dirty pics, threats???

    Does anyone have a diagram of this? Dish just installed my 1000 but it has 3 lines that connect to a DP33 switch. Then there are three lines off the 33 into the house feeding a new 211 and a 942. I would like to use a sperator with the 942 if possible.
