    That seems to have done the trick! Thanks guys!!! If it wasn't for this board and the nice people on it, I NEVER would have taken the chance at doing this! From day one (2 years ago), I have received excellent advice and help for this true amateur! Because of that help we have really enjoyed...

    * Choice Issue

    Sorry, I guess I should have mentioned that the dish is clean and clear.. No ice or snow, and is dry. I installed my first and only dish, ever, 2 years ago. So the terms are not that fresh in my old brain.. Stacked Dish? F1? If your question means channel 420, the answer is no. It is doing the...

    * Choice Issue

    If it's a goofy issue, I can find it! My HD channels are all fine, but every non-HD channel is having problems?? They ALL skip and scramble about every 30 seconds or so.. It's really annoying! It's like there is storm near or far (?) that won't go away??? Like I said, the HD channels have no...

    Strange.. No Color Red On Starchoice??

    DOH! Sorry! Nevermind. Found it. Don't know who's dumber? The cat who went behind the box and loosened one of the cables, or me for not checking them before I posted on here?.... BTW, don't answer that! Carry-on.

    Strange.. No Color Red On Starchoice??

    It's not my TV. Everything is fine on my Dish Network. Yet on Starchoice, the color red is not working. Hard to watch the Hurricanes take on the Leafs when the Carolina uniforms look brown? In fact everything that is usually red, is now brown.. Even the numbers in the guide. I re-set the box...

    O.K., nevermind. I hit the reset button (a second time) and were back in business. Still don't understand what happened?? My Dish Network was working just fine. Anyway, have a good a day!

    A Lil' Help Here Please

    I want to thank everyone again for their help, and useful tips!! It was a line of sight issue. One BIG branch cut down (we won't talk about it coming within 6" of the dish on it's way down... Yikes:), and walla: 85 signal strength 9.5 ebno!!! Lowest signal strength on any channel is 9.7... On a...

    A Lil' Help Here Please

    I thank you again. Kinda bummed. I tried all that. I must have a line of sight issue with the neighbor's tree :(. I just kinda thought the distance (about 30 yards) would take care of any line of sight issue, but I must be wrong...... God I hate drillin' holes in my house.

    A Lil' Help Here Please

    Thank you "Wherron! Unbelievably, I just recieved those instructions about 3 minutes before you posted. The broker asked me to check channels 326, 361, 465, 534, 542, and 544. My highest reading is 6.8 (on 326 & 542), and my lowest is 6.0 (on 535 & 544). These #'s look a little low compared to...

    A Lil' Help Here Please

    O.K., I just have purchased and self installed a *Choice DSR 505 system, with the 75cm dish (yes I am a satellite virgin). All the guides and instructions that I have found, do not seem to pertain to this model. They all instruct to press option and then some numbers in sequence. Problem is...

    Hockey ?

    I have received some great advice from a couple of people on this board (specifically Iceberg & Uplink), thank you. I am totally new to this, so I have asked some probably redundant questions. Through their advice though, it seems that Starchoice would be the best way to go. But! I have one...
