    522 menu key words different

    I recently installed a 522 system and while doing customer ed, I noticed some of the menu words where different (ex: timers was called something else in DVR menu). Would something like this be done through a software upgrade or is this something done to a newer 522 model? Thanks.

    105, 121 birds

    Does anyone have a list of international channels available on the 105, 121 birds? I was just wondering if someone wanted AT120 and maybe an international channel, could you use a Superdish 105 or 121 instead of a second dish pointed at 61.5 or 148. Thanks.

    Local Channels on 811 EPG

    Why is it that on the 811 the locals from San Diego do not show as their local numbers like they do for other receivers? We get the locals off the same 110/119 dish. Thanks.

    TV Antenna/ Cable In Port

    Has anyone had success using this port? Let's say you have a 522 for Sat programming, but kept your cable service as well. You have two sat feed lines, and a seperate cable for the cable service. You hook the cable line to the TV Antenna/ Cable In port on the rec. If you used RCA cables for...

    LNB compatiblity

    Just curious. Are most LNBs compatible or proprietary? For example, say you have a dual on a Dish500 you used for getting intl on 61.5, could you turn it to some other sat (DirecTV, Voom, Sky, or other) and use the same LNB and their receiver to get service. I know the difference between a...

    Using RG59 cable for TV2

    I am getting conflicting information on whether you can use RG59 cable for TV2 output on a dual tuner rec. I know you cannot use it for sat feeds. I came across a very old cable the other day. I assume it was RG59 based on the conductor size. The cable diameter itself was very small, not...

    Stereo audio on 3/4 RF out.

    Does the 3/4 TV RF output port on the receiver send stereo audio. I heard that the TV2 RF output sends MTS stereo audio. I heard normally the RF on say a 311 only sends mono-audio sound using the RF port. To get stereo you must use the RCA cables. Why would this be the case if TV2 is getting...

    Diplex TV2 and cable TV

    Can you send a cable TV signal and TV2 signal down the same line using diplexers? Or are they in the same frequency range. Thank you.

    Port order for 522 hooked to a DP Quad

    I heard some info about hooking up a 522 to a DP Quad from a tech. To avoid problems, I was informed to hook the two lines going to the 522 to ports 1,4 or 2,3 (as opposed to 1,2 or 3,4). If using a DP Twin with a 34 Switch, use the same sequence for hooking up to the receiver ports. Can...

    301 reciever

    I recently obtained two 301-010 receivers with a legacy twin from a previous owner. I hooked up the dish, ran a check switch and I am receiving a good signal. I followed the instructions for upgrading the system software but it does not seem to work. The receivers have been disconnected for...
