    Something I cannot figure out!

    Yes sorry no joey so recommended to put the 75ohm plug on its output. For some reason I always get the kangaroo thing mixed up! they should have called the hopper a Jill.

    yes i meant client output. I just read that a 75ohm terminator required if no hopper is hooked up.

    Something I cannot figure out!

    Duh SA WA! thanks everyone for the pro advice....I am convinced my prob is due to the lack of the solo node as even on the winegard rv antenna site they make a big post note that it is mandatory to install a solo node if using a single hopper system. The only thing i havent quite figured out...

    Something I cannot figure out!

    I just checked my signal strength on the receiver and it is picking up 129 on 119. But it wasnt the other day when I installed my new hopper and ran check switch. Maybe I should re-aim my dish? The only thing I did after I dialed in 119 was to adjust the skew past the specified degrees to...

    Something I cannot figure out!

    I have a real head scratcher here...:( I had a hopper and 1000.2 dish set up at my house in southern oregon. Signal on recvr was in 50's which is normal in this area. About 2 mos ago I would start getting signal problems after dark...most channels other than the network spots would lose signal...

    dishnet 110 wont show signal strength

    I am scratching my head! I just put my dishnet dvr receiver in my motorhome. Prior to that it was at home and at night I was getting HD signal errors on some channels and then it would switch to SD sometimes. I put in my motorhome and set up 1000.2 dish on tripod and all worked fine for one...
