    Ike didn't blow down my dish

    Even a hurricane w/ 90mph+ winds in my area didn't blow either of my 2 dishes off my roof. Unbelievable! We've had other near misses in the past few years w/ no problems either. I thought for sure they would get wrecked in this storm.

    Questions regarding receiver upgrades...

    You can get a 622. I have 4 of them and recently added a 722. I lease one of the 622's and the new 722, and the rest I just bought. I think you can only do 1 of the DishN-itUp per year, but otherwise you should be ok to add more.

    722 problem w/ OTA channels

    They are now sending me a new receiver, so hopefully the new one will not have the same problem. I also have LNB drift at -11, so they say that could be part of the problem. But the previous receiver I had in this location was able to give the channel descriptions on the OTA channels.

    722 problem w/ OTA channels

    That did not work. It did not reset counters or make it 480i either, so maybe I didn't do it right. Anyone have any suggestions?

    722 problem w/ OTA channels

    I've done the check switch, soft reset, hard reset, etc. I'll check the map down function under locals setup today when I get home. I don't remember seeing that. The regular HD locals (6389-6392) do have the guide information, which goes out for over a week.

    722 problem w/ OTA channels

    I just added a 722 to my 4 622's. I have had 2 major problems with the 722. First, it freezes when I click on DishOnline. I had read that this is a common problem, so I'll wait for a software fix. The second problem I have not seen any info on. My OTA HD locals just show up as "Digital...

    Comments Needed: DishONLINE Reviews

    I was very excited about this technology, so I bought a Linksys wireless gaming adapter to talk to my wireless router and it worked great. I did not use the sling/electrical outlet method, because I don't think my tv and computer are on the same circuit. Anyway, it took 3+ hrs. to download...

    why are my local ota hd channels fuzzy?

    My Pioneer plasma does that when I have HDMI cable run b/t dish receiver and tv, but when I use component cables, it clears up. So I don't know if that's your situation, but I really like the picture I get with component cables much better than HDMI. Now I also have other tv's (LCD) that seem...

    HD locals is houston echoing...

    Anyone else having this problem. Specifically, channels 6390 and 6391. I've called customer service and they don't have a clue. The video is fine, just the sound echoing. This is only happening on both of my 622's, not any other receiver. And what is warbeling?

    Special DPP44 switch?

    I have two dp34 switches with a dpp 44 cascading off of it (3 cables connecting them). If I disconnect the power inserter on the dpp 44, I only lose signal on the receiver connected to the dpp 44. Sorry if this has been discussed already.

    Stupidest thing a E* Tech has ever told you?

    Recently a complete moron at E* told me I could use a 2 separators (kind of like diplexers) to combine the cables out of the dp34 switch, then separate it into 2 cables just before the receiver (on a vip 622). This obviously didn't work. I then appropriately bought a dpp 44 switch and used a...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Bug: When I have "locks" enabled, sometimes when I click on a show that is locked, it asks for the code, which I put in, then it thinks I want to record it (even though it is showing currently).

    DPP 44 died - replacement switch DOA

    Called Dish tech support today. They told me I could use the DP 34 switch with 2 receiver feeds coming out and connecting into a DP separator (combining the signal), then into the single cable going through the walls to the receiver, then add another DP separator to split the signal into 2 for...

    DPP 44 died - replacement switch DOA

    I'm getting ready to buy one of these switches. Do you have to use the power converter? or will it work along side my two DP 34's without power? Where is best place to buy one? eBay? Answers appreciated.

    More than 1 HD receiver Upgrade

    I just got off the phone with Dish, I was able to upgrade both my 921 and my 942 to the new 622. Had to talk with Exec. Resolution Team, but they did it for me. They charge me the $299 each, but will give $200 rebate for each receiver when they receive them back from me. Install is 4/22...

    Anyone noticing major pixelation with their 942?

    I am having the same pixelation problem with my 942. Happens on the right side of the screen with some SD channels. Have not noticed it when on HD channels. It does seem to have gotten worse with the last update. I tried switching from HDMI to component cables, and it seemed to help at...

    Dish 942 L280 Software Bug Reports

    Having digital audio problems with my 942. I am using single mode with PIP. Switching back and forth between PIP and main I lose audio, especially if one of the programs is a DVR (recorded) program. I can't believe they put out a product with these kind of bugs. I wish I could be a beta...

    942 and optical outlet problems

    When using PIP, and I swap between two shows, I lose audio from the optical outlet (of my 942) from one of the shows. Swapping back and forth doesn't help. It usually happens when watching a DVR recorded show. I called Dish Network and they said they knew about the problem and would have a...
