    DISH IR-to-UHF Pro Upgrade Kit Code for iLIVE ITP 100B Sound Bar

    I have a 211K receiver that came with a 20.0 IR remote. I was able to teach the DISH 20.0 IR remote ( using the AUX button) to control the mute and volume but NOT the power of the iLIVE bar. The code I can pull from the taught 20.0 remote is 2111. Since the 211K is in a cabinet , I bought...

    HD vs SD Cable requirements

    Does HD place a higher burden on a cable than SD due to its greater data transmission ? I have installed a 211k in an existing cottage which is wired with old CATV cable. The HD on sat. 110 is 10 to 15 points lower on the DISH signal strength meter than the 119 SD. I know RG 6 should be used...

    211K Questions

    Question ? When I started my 211K on June 5 2011 I was able to format my " Guide " to 7 lines with no Live Tv box in the upper right. Some time around June 21 to 25 the Guide inserted the Live Tv box and reduced the 7 lines to where my old eyes can barely read them. The option to delete the...

    211k EHD ACTIVATION

    When DISH activates a 211K on an account do they send a signal to the receiver ? If so what satellite do they use? I currently use a Dish 300 and 119 in my RV. Does the $40 one time activation fee cover all receivers on the account? If I opened a new account and transferred the receiver to...

    Given that DISH will be using 110HD and 119SD for DNS when offered , would the 1000.4WA be any advantage over a dish 500 if only looking at 110 and 119. Bigger dish better signal strength ? I would not be getting any locals . Bob
