    Wally not switching odd/even transponders

    Another odd thing is sometimes when it shows lost signal, I'll check signal strength and it will show good signal, but says it's on sat 119 even though I'm set to 61.5.

    Wally not switching odd/even transponders

    I did several check switch and several resets. I'll look into upgrading the lnb.

    Wally not switching odd/even transponders

    I havea Wally in my rv connected to an older legacy single lnb crank up dish and have it on the 61.5 sat with good signal strength. I'm getting even transponder channels fine, but when I change to an odd one, ESPN on channel 140 for instance, I get a message saying that signal has been lost...

    Wally 2nd tuner not working in RV

    Right after I posted this I realized I hadn't tried a reset. Reset the Wally and now the 2nd tuner showed up!

    Wally 2nd tuner not working in RV

    I've got a Wally with external hard drive and at home the 2nd tuner function works (I can record on one tuner and watch a different channel on the other tuner). When I use the Wally in my RV the second tuner doesn't work and doesn't show as active. I'm using a western arc DPP antenna (110...

    VIP211K Check Switch

    I'm trying to clear the switch matrix on a VIP211K to set up a new antenna (camping in a RV). I've run the check switch several times with the antenna disconnected, but it stops at test 38 of 38 and won't complete so I can save the cleared matrix. Any ideas on how to get it to clear the...

    Wally and VIP211K on same LNB

    I just added Dish and got a single Wally to use along with a VIP211K that I got from a friend. I talked to Dish rep, they said no problem as I wanted the Wally in the den and the 211K in the bedroom, and going to move the 211K to the RV when we travel (have a KHV L2 dome antenna). The tech...

    vip211k and 1000.4 EA

    Thanks Mike, I used your method and was able to get a signal on 72, then uncovered the other LNBs and ran the check switch and got green on all three (61.5, 72, and 77). It went to acquire signal and sometimes it will work on channels that are on 61.5 and 77, but none on 72, and eventually a...

    vip211k and 1000.4 EA

    Well, I got the cheapo meter and got the dish aligned or so I thought. When I ran check switch I got green on all three sats (61.5, 72, 77), but after it acquired signal, it comes up with a screen showing complete signal loss. When i got the point dish screen, I get green signal strength on...

    vip211k and 1000.4 EA

    Thanks, I did a quick visual check and the dish and arm all looked ok. I'll play around with it some more tonight. Is there anything to reset on the VIP211K when going from the KVH S2 and the 1000.4 since they're looking at different satellites?

    vip211k and 1000.4 EA

    Well, had it working, then tried it using my KVH S2 dish and got it to find 119 and it was able to switch back and forth between 110 and 119, and even got HD even though the KVH rep said it wouldn't. I went back to try it with the 1000.4 EA and couldn't get any signals. The dish was on a...

    vip211k and 1000.4 EA

    Trying to set up a vip211k with the 1000.4 eastern arc and the dish point screen doesn't have an option for the 1000.4 antenna with the 61.5, 72.7, and 77 satellites. It only has the Dish 500, and 2 others, none of which have the combination of satellites that the 1000.4 EA supports. Any...
