gfci may interfere with the homeplug technology. There are two options you have that will require some Sherlocking on your part... One would be to find 3 outlets on the same leg and adjust your setup accordingly... you can go to menu 6 1 8 on both receivers to see if they are able to communicate...

They can replace your 1000.2 dish with a 1000+ which will give you the sats you need for domestic, international and hd... from one dish. The technician will have to install a switch and power inserter. Good luck, hope this helps. ; )

These links do not work for me from my phone. 8(

Do you know which spotbeam your locals come on? Spot 3 has some definite issues, fyi.

That spotbeam is quite weak on the sat itself. Detroit locals come off of it as well and we (as installers) are lucky to get it into the mid 30s. It sounds like your signals are peaked judging from the other numbers you provided. Hopefully something will be done about it 'soon'. ;)

its an old email that i have well filtered, and only check by phone... Thanks for the concern though. :)

I may be able to help you out, as i do not live too far from your area. drop me an email bslang@hotmail.com

Unfortunately there is not an alternative at this time for customers receiving international programming from the 61.5 sat. The 118.7 is now (for all intents and purposes) 'the international bird'. If you do not have los to the 118, you will not have any los at the 119, as they are in the same...

I think Webbydude is correct... If the meter isn't supplying enough (600mA?) current, it won't power the LNB enough to peak your signal.Hook it up through the receiver, or... if you have the line out there anyway, tune the dish off of the point dish screen. (VIVA LA MEXICANTOWN!)

Just use two 500 dishes instead. DPP Twin has the jumper port as well, and you can keep your tin foil for your chili. :)

Hard to tell from the picture... but the LOS to 119 should be well over the trees (though the camera angle might be playing tricks...) Ugh #1 - No drip/service loops at switch Ugh#2 - Radio shack cable to receivers Ugh#3 - Switch is grounded (not UL listed) It is quite possible that you have...

Sorry for being more specific than you required! To answer your question simply: Yes, an installer can come out and get you going with your desired setup without changing or replacing your dishes. :) Apologies again for the confusion ;)

I believe a service call is in order, yes. :) Good luck with it, and let us know how it turns out. ;)

The mirror solution would definitely be the most cost effective, seeing as Dish will now only allow 4 tuners to be leased. Adding the switch is no big deal, though it depends on your dish/LNB setup (see: Don't mix DPP LNb's with 44 switches!) If your system is diplexed, you will add splitters...

I know there have been some problems using the DPP LNB's with 44switches (DPP twins for sure, I'm not 100% sure about the 1000.2)... I would recommend the tech either bypasses the 44 switch if able, or replace the tri-head 1000.2 LNB with 3 duals, each with a line to the 44sw. Either way, for...

To my knowledge nothing is being removed from the 61.5 besides some international programming which is going to the 118.7. If you were just looking for HD, then yes... it was a load of crap.

Thanks Scott. I was repeatedly searching for 1000.4 dish, as the guys at the shop are eager to see what we're going to be dealing with in a few months. ;)

DN New Dish 1000.4 -- "eastern arc dish" - Satellite and FTA Forums I was just wondering how legit this was, and if in fact this was the planned setup. Looks pretty freaking heavy! (yay for struts?) (My apologies for posting a cross link... I saw the Sat'Guys stamping on the pics, but did not...

Do you have port one and two from the quad to the 721, and port three to the 508? Are you trying to use a separator?

Problem sounds like it could be either 1 of 3 things: 1) Cabling 2) Overheating 3) Receiver If you are a DHPP customer, give Dish a call. They will troubleshoot it and send you a new receiver if that is what it ends up being.

There are a few factors that could play into the failure of your system... I was thinking you had a Legacy receiver, my mistake. So you have a 2 dish solution, or do all of the sats have their own dish? Is it possible that mother nature (that bitch) has finally caught up to the LOS on your...

DPP Twin with a jumper in from the 61.5. Might need a DP adaptor to power the LNB's depending on the receiver. (What kind?)

If they let you go with the HD only package, Corporate would probably build the work order to still be a 1000+ dish, because at some point you may want to add your locals (110) ... HD locals (sat depends on area, 118.7 in Detroit), or any of the other mpeg2 SD programming (119). Corporate will...

lol. Come up to MI. Every sub 1000+ has the 44sw on the dish or mast. I completely understand that it saves a metric asston of cable, but when I roll up to a TC or CH, I have to re-install it... and that spells good times for 12 points :rolleyes:. Especially if there is no basement or...
