Hi there! Yes, the 921 is on my account now. I called Dish, and told the rep. I wanted to disable my 7100 and turn on a different receiver. She asked if it was new, and I told her that it was a used receiver. I gave her the R00 and S00 numbers, and they turned it on. I did a "factory reset"...

Hi there! One more note -- is there any advantage to moving to DishPro hardware over legacy hardware? I don't intend to hook up more than one receiver to this dish.

Hi there! This has been a good day. After eating supper I went out to the dish and took the LNBFs loose and looked. They each have two coax connections! :D So, I'll add more coax to hook up my second SW21, and run that to input 2. I'll connect the existing SW21 to input 1, and remove the...

Hi there! Well, I jumped the gun a bit, but I still count it as a win. The switch check passed, but after playing with PIP a bit, I apparently confused it. It's not happy about Input 2. I'm going to take a good look at my LNBFs to see how many connections each has, but if I remember right...

Hi there! I got my 921 hooked up today. The short answer is that I was successful in getting it working with my existing equipment. The longer story. I first hooked up my single cable from the SW21 to Input 1 on the 921. A switch check verified that it did find a signal on Input 1 and it...

Hi there! Sorry about the confusion. The dish isn't in the most accessible place. I just went out there and took a good look at it. There are two LNBFs -- Dish p/n bs1h1up201m. They're mounted to a bracket that is labeled 119 and 110, and each has a single cable going from it to the SW21...

Hi there! The HD thing doesn't bother me that much, because I don't have HD programming and I don't have an HD TV yet. I was shopping for a 721 when I found a good deal on this 921 and jumped on it. The not authorizing 921s due to the TiVo order is the part that I'm sweating right now. The...

Hi there! I dug around a bit, and I found my extra SW21 (for whatever reason I remembered having two, but only one in service). So, given I have a Dish 500 dish and a legacy two-output LNB (one output per satellite), and I have two SW21 switches on-hand, how would I connect it to the dual...

Hi there! I have had my Dishplayer 7100 since '99, and it's on its last legs. I recently acquired a Dish 921 and will be taking the 7100 out of service. I have a connection question, assuming Dish will activate it (considering the recent injunction -- it's used so maybe? Or maybe not since...
