    Issue with 622 and Second TV Output

    I did indeed verify channel set up was all correct. I was using diplexors so that I wouldn't have to use the cable outlets and just use the satelitte cables at first, then I switched to the cable outlets to see if that would work.

    Issue with 622 and Second TV Output

    So I'm trying to hook up my second TV to my 622 using the coax output on the back of it. I've hooked up two diplexor's, one in the back of the 622 combining the input of the two sat signals and the output of the coax for tv2. The second one is hooked up outside where my switch is with line...

    My 622 install was rescheduled. Echostar X related???

    Here is my question, I just got my 622 today. Besides the need for the second dish, what is stoping me from hooking up my 622 today and start using it?

    1/9 Charlie Chat Recap

    so let me get this right, if my current sat dish is pointed to 119 and 110 I can upgrade my 811 to the 211 and get the second dish pointed to 61.5 for $50? Too bad I can't use my best buy cards on one of those new fancy smancy hd dvrs. That's about the only way me wife is letting me come...

    Before I go buy the equipment to add the 61.5, can someone tell me if my ebay shopping list is accurate? 1. Single LNB? 2. 18 inch dish 3. SW21? I want to connect this to my dish 500 that is pointed at 110 and 119 currently through the sw21, is this all I need besides the obvious coax...

    Not Mediacom yet, but....

    Do they offer a box with an OTA tuner in it? Or does anyone know if this is in their plans?

    Dish Pointing

    Or, as I think about this more, is it this? Do I need to take the arm that holds my LNB and make sure that is pointing to my 205 degrees on the compass? Although I'm not sure how I can change that just yet.

    Dish Pointing

    What? so it's not the angle, protractor, looking thing that is actually bolted to my house? I have three angles I can adjust, two are behind my actualy dish bowl and the third is below the dish attached to the bracket bolted to my house. This third one isn't the azimuth? This one only go up...

    Dish Pointing

    Wicked upset here :mad: , I had my dish installed in January of this year and have zero problems for a long time. Recently we've had some bad winds that have caught my dish and moved it off it's settings. Two of the angles I need to line up are relatively simple, b/c they have the protractor...

    Not Mediacom yet, but....

    thinking of switching from Dish. My question is this, with their HD/DVR box, does it record HD channels in HD, or does it convert them to SD for playback? Also, is their HD box a HD STB? Can I plug my antenna into it to get locals in HD? Or am I SOL on that?

    yeah, that's my problem. My wife thinks I've spent too much on the HDTV, suround sound and all the dish I already get. Paying another $100 for another dish is like asking for her womb. WHY GOD, WHY MUST YOU TORTURE ME?

    Right, just like us in the mid-west that don't get 61.5 and have been living VOOM free this whole time. If you are going to mirror crap to 61.5, freakin' mirror them on 110 too.

    No Signal

    So we had a minor storm come through last night, with no bigger then pea size hail. During the middle of the storm we lost Satellite signal. I figured no big deal, this stuff happens during storms and it'll be back on once the storm blows through. No such luck, storm has been gone and clear...

    no picture on 811

    Thanks for the advice. I just tried it with my unit starting in the off position. Held down for about 10-11 seconds and nothing. Now when I try to turn it on, just hittin power on the 811 or remote I get nothing, no power. I know this happens when your unit is downloading new software, but I...

    I have an 811, 510 and 311. Both my 510 and 311 have picture this evening, but my 811 does not. I can pull up the guide but there is no picture or sound from any channels I turn to. Did they recently release a new software that this is a know problem? Any other thoughts that may cause this...
