I had this problem and a more complicated issue when I had my 211k connected to my Mit TV. After several months of going back and forth with Dish tech reps (and several replacements), I gave up and put the 211 on a different TV and problem solved. My problem was more comples, having to do with...

I've asked Dish Network technical staff and they only say that Dish is not committed to 3d just yet. My question is simple, what 1.4a format will they likely use. (e.g. checkerboard, top/bottom, or side/side). I don't know what Direct TV uses, but it is likely the same. Now why would I like...

I have had this issue (on and off) for several months. It only happens with the 722k, not my 211k. And it seems to be more delayed on NBC stuff comming OTAR.. On playback it is imacted by how many other channels are being recorded. A nuisance...yes...but my solution is to turn off the volume...

I have the 60 inch 638 series DLP that I bought a few years back and was sucessful in making the set work very well (in the native checkerboard mode) by using only a Panasonic DMP-BDT100 player (about $150 at most discount places). You DO NOT need to buy the 3DC-1000 converter, but you do need...

"Lock Up": No impact on video. Rx does not respond to any commands via the remote except power up. Can't change channels, switch to DVR etc. Can't access menu, re-learn (button 0) and even can't power down. If you put the remote up to the IR sensor, it works,...move it back an inch and rx...

My 722k locks up (does not respond to the IR remote on TV1) This is often caused when I record two or more programs or when I switch from my recordings to sat. While a hard reset usually works, this is a pain when it is happening every day or so. What is wierd is that the IR sensor on the...

I have this problem and it is driving me crazy with no help from tech support. When I lose audio, I ONLY lose it on SD feeds, but the audio feeds from the HD channels work fine (both sat and OTA) . Same for recorded shows,...only SD recordings are muted. Soft and Hard resets usually do not...

I have dish comming in a few days and I know already that they are going to want to mount the dish on the roof. I want it on the ground. What size pipe (O.D.) will the ground mounted dish fit on. I have adequate views of both the eastern arc and the western satellites. Thanks

I do not care to know how card hacking is accomplished, but it would seem possible, knowing the card and receiver numbers, that a person so inclined might be able to fabricate a false duplicate card with a hacked up receiver. So I would also be reluctant to list that information initially, but...

I cannot find a post I thought I read earlier about Hughes Net having a pricing change on Nov 15th. (e.g. $300 for the equipment) Does anyone know the facts? Are we talking an increase or decrease? I am also seeing some dealers offering an additional rebate running from 50 to 150 in...

Thanks to the both of you...there is a lot of good information there. I can see that my prefered location of the dish will not work for the 83 or 91 W birds because of obstructions. I would be able to clear the obstruction for the 99 and 117W birds at the prefered location. This...

Does anyone know the orbital location of the satellite that would provide service to the East Texas?

This is a common problem and it would not hurt to "try" the amp, but more than likely it will not help because it would simply amplify the signal a bit and not improve the signal to noise which is causing the failure to lock on to the digital signal. You need more signal and there is only a few...

I plan on using it mostly for web browsing and for software updates to my utilities and OS. No Video, or very limited. The 200M FAP should be acceptable most of the time (except when I do a new system build...which I do about once a month) on the least expensive plan. Anyway, I just like...

This happens when the network has a delay...particularily on the weekend where there are sports going on earlier in the day. I don't know of any way to add time on the timer without doing it across all timers and it would cause a problem if you are recording a different channel immediately...

Other than local sales tax that may be added to the monthly service, are there extra fees that are added to the bill such as is done with cell phones and telephone land lines that can add another $10 to the plans.

Thanks guys...I think the extra $300 will be worth it (for me)in the long run. I believe the extra power and the extra sensitivity of the commercial equipment will give me a "reduced" chance of being dropped when the link becomes saturated. Certainly it will have less drop out in rain/clouds...

Most of the posts here tend to favor WB over HN. I guess that this is because it is a bit less expensive and more heavily advertised. Anyway I am going with HN. I seem to recall that there were some modem issues with HN. Is the 7000S modem the present modem that is installed on the Home...

I haven't read every post here, but I am getting ready to order service either from WB or HN. I have "everything" ready inside of my attic and my internal gigabit LAN is centrally located in the center of the attic on a 6/12 hip roof. I have three Dish Network dishes located on an antenna...

Did they skip the monthly forum for Jan? I seem to have missed it and my name based recording did not pick it up either.

The above responses "assume" that you have equipment capable of decoding the HD signals. You need a Dish receiver that has that capability or a TV with a built in HD receiver. If you have either of those two, then the reference web sites will lead you to a list of choices as to what type of...

I have a leased 811 and dumped the HD pack and they did not say anything about returning the 811, only saying that I could not add the HD pack back again. I doubt that the rules changed...only the CSRs interpetation. They could not (technically) deactivate the OTA HD, nor the HD channels...

For all those that have followed this thread for the past few months, THE PROBLEM HAS been solved. IT was the LMB, replaced today and all works fine. BTW, a month ago I had all the Coax replaced directly from the DPP44 to the 501/508...I checked the open circuit voltage on three 508s and...

Try 220...it works with my Insignia 27 inch HDTV but I have a different remote. You can get newer UHF remotes from some of the sponsor sites, used for at little as $10. I did ...they all work fine with my 811, 622, and 508

I do not have the answer, other than to say that Dish is comming on Monday to replace the LMB. I had noted with the cold weather here in East Texas, the 501/508 works perfectly, yet when the temperature goes above 55, the EPG does not work, nor several of the channels including the weather...
