    Receiver Vip 211k Help

    First off - thanks for all the help Iceberg and all the others who have chimed in on this. Secondly, I don't mind you asking at all. I mainly fish around Brainerd. Gull, North Long, Round, etc. This is a new fish house for me so I plan on a trip (or two) to Lake of the Woods and maybe even...

    It's only a single lnb so I can only tune in 1 satellite at a time.

    Receiver Vip 211k Help

    Wow. Who knew that all I needed was a little patience! I let the check switch run all the way through (about 10 minutes) and ta-da!! Thank you so much for all the help!! I really appreciate it. I can already tell it's going to be a pain in the rear to switch satellites manually all the time...

    I'm doing everything on the dish it's going to be used with and it's the same dish I used to activate it with. It's a separate dish that my house. It's a winegard manual crank up dish on top of my ice fishing house.

    Receiver Vip 211k Help

    So I got it up and running and I got the receiver activated. But now when I go to watch programming, it says there is a complete signal loss. However if I go to the point dish page, I have 75% signal strength. I know I'm on the right dish and transponder. Any ideas???

    Receiver Vip 211k Help

    OK. Disregard the last half of the previous post since Dish wants you to have all your receivers in the same house. Is there a way to get past step #4 of 5 so I can get to the "Dish Point" screen???

    After the second attempt of the "test connection" test, a screen comes up with the Receiver ID and Smart Card ID numbers. I have verified the numbers with Dish Network and it's a good receiver. Iceberg, the receiver won't let me hit menu right away and it won't let me hit menu after the two...

    Receiver Vip 211k Help

    I purchased a Vip 211k to add to my ice fishing house. My fish house came installed with a winegard RM-4600 manual crank up satellite dish. I was having trouble finding a satellite because when I plug my receiver in, it wants to do a 5-process check first. I can't exit off this screen to get...
