    service temporarily not avaliable

    Thanks for the link! Guess H-10's are just pretty poor. Maybe I should upgrade to an HDTivo. Circuit City has them for 499 after rebates.....hmmm....

    service temporarily not avaliable

    All in the 80's and 90's. Ok, so I went in the basement and turned on my Tivo box (both on the same dish). Came back upstairs and waited. H10, gets the "service unavailable", but I can still hear the TV downstairs playing. So it is just the H10 I guess. :mad:

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    Using component cable. And the only channel that has the problem is Fox 32 (still ghosting). The other stuff I have come to learn definately IS artifacting! One good way I could tell is I get CBS regular and CBS HD. I waited until I saw what I once THOUGHT was ghosting on CBS, quickly...

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    Interesting... Dont think its a coincidence we both live in Chicago area (I live about 50 miles NW of Chicago). And yeah, its VERY noticeable on animated shows like Simpsons. Guess it is on Directv's side? Another question...both of my recievers are on Surge Suppressors that have inputs...

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    I was actually told NOT to ground the dish or the cable because it would cause MORE artifacting. So you are saying I should? As far as three prongs on the receivers...yup, both are 3 prong. They are both plugged into outlets we just had installed 2 years ago when we moved into this house...

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    Yup, relatively new to this. Maybe ghosting was the wrong word? Kind of hard to describe the problem, but here goes. A good test channel I found was National Geographic Channel. They have a small yellow box in the lower right corner of the screen at all times. So basically, I see a...

    Ghosting=Bad built in multi-switch?

    A couple weeks ago I installed a new triple LNB dish with a built in multi-switch from Best Buy. I have one TV in the living room on an HD box. I have another TV in the basement on a DVR box. All of my signals are in the 80's and 90's except a few. Lowest is 78 currently. Problem is, I...

    How to use signal meter properly?

    Long story short...2 years ago, my girlfriend and I moved into a house, we bought all of our HD, dish equipment from one place...they installed it. They used really poor equipment because we have had nothing but problems with it. So...I am going to be installing a new triple LNB dish...
