    What's A 10ft Dish Worth For Scrap?

    I had a 10.5 perforated aluminum dish that I had disassembled and took to the scrap dealer and got $75.00 for it. This was about 4 years ago so metal prices might not be the same.

    Poor HD Picture

    Sounds like the picture issue is slowly resolved. I would suggest trying a VIP 722 in place of the Hopper and check PQ from that receiver.

    I have explained this problem in the past but here goes again channel 10 in Portland Or. lists 10.1,10.2 and 10.3 on the guide. 10.1 and 10.2 list the same programming however 10.2 has different programming. Why can't Dish get this right it has been this way for over a year.

    Upgrading and Confused ... DVR510 on DP 500 -to- ViP622 with HD

    You should get a whole new system from Dish. Dish, receiver and cable in other words the whole nine yards. You can cobble a system together by replacing your LNB with a dish pro plus and a single LNB on a separate antenna to get 129and while this will work you will be much happier with a brand...

    OTA Update?

    Getting the OTA signals integrated to my 722K is very important to me. I would never consider the new Hopper system if i couldn't pump my locals through it.

    I have had the same problem with my 722k locking up and I have to reboot then all is well. Then about a week ago I went to single mode instead of duel and it hasn't misbehaved since.

    OTA EPG Info Incorrect or Displaying 'Digital Service'

    The PBS station in Portland Or is listed on Dish network as having the same content on 10-1 and 10-2 O.T.A. The programing on 10-2 is different. This makes it impossible to record from 10-2 because of different timing and not knowing the content of 10-2. This has been the case for several months.

    Burnt off pin from Satellite Cable

    I had that problem with cable from ota antenna to amp. The center wire burned clear off and the connector on the amp got real hot. I soldered the end of the new wire so it would fit more snugly in the amp. connector and no more trouble.

    722K Lock up

    I had the same problem when I started up yesterday. The guide came up and I couldn't get rid of it, I turned the receiver off and the guide stayed on the screen. I finally did a hard reset and when the unit came back on everything was fine.
