    DISH on the house, want to re-setup

    I was a long time DISH customer until I moved into a location that prohibited DISH. Anyway, I'm in a new location now and would like to give it a go once more. I purchased a VIP-211K from this website's sponsor store a long while back and it worked great. Since there is a satellite, sans...

    continuous channel signal loss on 129

    My parents have been complaining about signal loss for a few months. I rarely saw it except during storms. But, this weekend I'm visiting and it has been outrageous. It's overcast and no trees are blocking the satellite. But, both receivers continue to have random blue screens that signal...

    OTA signal always lost when Satellite signal is lost

    We have one HD DVR and one HD receiver, each with its own HD OTA antenna plugged in the back. OTA signal works 100% fine when it's sunny and the satellite is working. However, we get error code 739 and a loss of signal on the OTA every time the satellite signal is lost. It's a pain having the...

    SlingLoaded over WAN to TV?

    Okay, so I'm debating between the 922 Slingloaded or getting a 722 with the Sling adapter which is $100 less than the 922. Either way, I'm a little perplexed by the information provided by DISH. Please, if anyone can answer, I would like to hear the resolution. 1) Does the Slingloaded or...

    Losing old Sat location, can DISH be picked up via NW?

    I'm in Oklahoma and live in a townhouse. My balcony faces north and northwest. I'm literally just about 4 degrees from getting the standard satellite angle for DISH. My old neighbors allowed me to have the DISH on their balcony. The new ones aren't so agreeable even with a bribe... I'm...

    Need DISH installer in OKC

    I'm looking for someone who can setup DISH at our apartment. It has to be setup unattached to the balcony. So, it takes a cement bucket and whatever else is required to stabilize it and point it. The angle is the biggest problem. The neighbors had it and we tapped off their line. But, they...

    My DISH seems dead

    Okay, don't want to call Dish because they will be jerks over this... My neighbor has a Dish. I bought an account, but my apartment can't get the angle required, so the Dish guy hooked up on the neighbors satellite. At any rate, the neighbor went on vacation this morning. This evening, upon...

    811 being replaced, with 381???

    So DISH has sent out a replacement for my defective 811 I bought on Ebay. It will arrive tomorrow, weather permitting. Anyway, my main concern is will it be able to show the HD television shows from DISH? It seems to have the same DVI output that this one has. My TV is a 1080p and I'll get a...

    How to mount on a balcony

    Okay, my sister is living in a townhouse and the only place I can put her DISH is on the backside on the balcony. However, it cannot penetrate the 1/2 by 6 boards that act as the fencing. The only way to achieve signal is for the DISH to hang out 2 feet from the balcony to get around an...

    Attention 015, stuck

    Okay, I bought a used V811 or whatever off Ebay. It was fine, cleared and setup on the DISH system for my account without a hitch. Unfortunately, it has not been able to get past Progress 1 of 5 on the 015 screen. I have reset to factory defaults, I have done the Point Dish (no errors), and...
