    Assuming that there is an amplifier on the OTA to block broadcasting TV2 to the neighbors, Will this setup work?

    VIP 211 Freezes on OTA 2.1 Does not respond to remote

    Its happening to mine as well. It is channel 5 which is actually broadcasting on uhf 28 for now. It must be a software glitch.

    Multi-Dish Installation

    That would work fine.

    Confused Newbie to the site...

    DPP Twin solution as WiCkeDuDe just suggested. Probably cheapest and easiest.

    I updated your diagram to a working configuration if you go with a DPP 44.

    Fate of HD Absolute

    If its anything like any programming package in the past you are correct. But the rumors had to come from somewhere... whats the source of the info that suggests we will get switched to a turbo package?

    Help! I can't get FOX HD channel w/ antenna?

    No Static At All - What kind of VHF antenna is that in your avatar? I've got about the same setup as you with the XG91 and rotor minus the VHF. 2 of my locals are going back to VHF in Feb and the selection of VHF only antennas doesnt seem to be nearly as good as the UHF only. Wheres the...

    What happened to Dish's "tech support"?

    probably just new.. I recall being on the other end thinking "what an idiot installer." Everybody has to learn.

    Turbo HD---feel a little misled

    Lets say you have a 622 and a 211.. then lets say the the TV2 out on the 622 goes to 1 or more SD televisions. I have the absolute pack with that configuration. I have 2 HD tv's, one on the 622 and one on the 211. The TV2 out on the 622 goes to the other 2 TV's. The SD channels are handy...

    NEW HD ?????

    Hopefully the whole house unit will also make mixed drinks and have a time machine expansion slot that will be activated in a future software upgrade with the purchase of the accessory and a small monthly charge. ohhh.. maybe it will have a little mini nuclear reactor power supply that will...

    HD Absolute VS. Turbo HD

    I wouldnt think changing a premium would have anything to do with hd absolute. The only way you should loose it is if you change hd absolute itself, such as to another basic programing package. If it is ever deleted there will be no way to put it back.

    Hook up 5 TV's (3 HD) to one Satellite

    True that would make it a lot easier, but you can't fault the poster for not understanding the workings of their system. If you dont have any background about the equipment how are you supposed to know what to know before you ask? Isn't learning the whole purpose of a question?

    Hook up 5 TV's (3 HD) to one Satellite

    If you have a 622 and 2 211's then there should be 3 outputs from the 44 switch. The second TV for the 622 has a cable running directly from the 622 to the room with the other tv. If you want to add another 622 it should be possible with what you already have. I'm just not sure why all 4...

    Hook up 5 TV's (3 HD) to one Satellite

    I agree the whole situation would make more sense if he has a 34 but he keeps saying 44. Check and see what the switch has written on it, or press menu 6-1-3 on your remote and see what it says in box h.

    Hook up 5 TV's (3 HD) to one Satellite

    You only need 1 cable from the DPP44 to the 622 with a DPP seperator. That would free up an out on the 44 for your new 622

    Lets hope this engine is legit

    Have you ever heard of the wright brothers? Maybe not a garage but I think a bicycle shop and a shack on the beach come close.
