    Switched to EA - rain fade

    You should be under warranty from the work order that was just closed by the unacceptably unprepared tech. Just call back and tell them that you still have the same issue you had before they got there. 40 degrees in elevation from where your dish is and above should be clear of trees. The dish...

    Switched to EA - rain fade

    When the dish was first released there was no 77 so we had to stick with the settings given to us or risk you not getting anything on the 77 when it became used. Or so that was what was told to me. I really don't like that dish. You have to bend the reflector to get acceptable signals out of...

    Tell me it "aint" so.

    You are way to concerned. It rarely happens in the scheme of things. The chances of you being audited, especially with only one rcvr, is slim to none. They are more interested in people with 6 single tuners active at the address of a single bedroom apartment.

    110/119/61.5 install still acceptable?

    A 1000.2 with a 61.5 wing should have been installed. I have seen work orders that still indicate 2x500 dishes for a 110/119/61.5 setup but the tech should know better. I'm curious if it was an in-house tech or a contractor who did it. Please PM me that information if you have it. Or the...

    dish question?????

    You will only be able to get one sat from the 500/ twin as the input of the 1000.4 can only accept one.

    vip 222k tv1 coax output does not work

    Order a module for the tv 1 output or split the composite. I have not installed a 222k that was capable of pushing both tv1 and tv2 since the beginning of the year. My belief is hardware issue. The problem is also beginning to show up on 722k.

    Tech is on site - 1000.4 no 72.7

    I agree with the LOS opinion. You were on a 1000.2 or a 110/119/61.5 setup?

    Eastern Arc LNB Drift?

    211's only use half the frequency range that the dual tuners do. If the tech shows up with a Super Sat Buddy have him turn on frequency deviation (menu, options, freq dev on, it will be located where the lnb type label was when he has a locked signal) and check the lines going to the dual...

    Eastern Arc LNB Drift?

    I'm suspecting a cable issue. Tight bends, crimps, water in the line, unshielded, or under rated cable. However I have seen multiple plus family LNB's die off because they were connected to a switch. Aim doesn't seem to be the issue at all as the signal levels jumped when the old LNB was replaced.

    Dish's Sorry TRICKS

    I would definitely call them. Someone could have signed you up for paperless when they were messing around in your online account.

    Signal being lost during DVR playback??

    Sounds like you are witnessing the bug that involves the Over The Air antenna. When signal levels are low on your antenna it causes the satellite signal to be called interrupted by the software. Disconnect or tune your off air antenna.

    Well just got a look at my install

    Dish needs to be grounded, the copper strap needs to be replaced with galvanized, and holes need to be sealed. Other than that the rest is just ugly.

    Urgent Notice

    HA! The original poster originally had a 110/119/61.5 But when they upgraded to 3 rcvrs the tech installed a 1000.2 dish instead of going through the trouble of installing a switch. When he did so he did not inform/modify that he did so. Thus leaving the orbital slots triggering the migration...

    Urgent Notice

    The letter is possibly legit. More likely the OP's account was built as a 110/119/61.5 and the tech installed the 129 for whatever reason but did not modify when doing so. Thus leaving only the codes for the 110/119/61.5 and triggering the computer system to generate a work order for a migration...

    DuoDVR HDMI/UHF issues

    1) Your television has a 2 way communication with the devices it is connected to. Look through your tvs menu for an option to disable this or continue to use the component. 2) The splitter trick mentioned above.
