    Called local repair shop. All that needed to be done was to unplug the tv, wait 20 seconds, plug back in............Just like a computer running Windows.

    Computer dvi to component tv input

    Just got done doing some web searching. Found a device that is made by terk called an HDMI 31. It takes 3 hdmi signals and converts into 1 output. Anybody familar with this? Is it a good product. With this I could avoid the Component problems and use it to converge the hdmi from my dish...

    Computer dvi to component tv input

    I just built a new PC. I have no desire to have my computer room pc function as a htpc. I also really do not feel a great NEED for a htpc. I actually have two pc's in my computer room. My last pc is now my backup pc. Soooooo, my old backup pc (pc number 3) is just lying on the floor. I...

    Computer dvi to component tv input

    I am wanting to output the video from one of my older pc's to my older hdtv. The only inputs that I have available on my hdtv are component. I have found dvi to component video adapters on the internet, but there seems to be a bit of a disclaimer that the video card needs to be able to...

    Satellite Radio Can Do It.....Why Not Dish

    Thanks guys. I learned a lot. Mostly learned that this technology is a bit over my head, but seems that it would be possible to use an omni directional antenna if the satellites had enough power.....maybe in the future. Sounds great that xm and sirius have looked into this already. Musky boy

    Satellite Radio Can Do It.....Why Not Dish

    Second antenna

    Rick, Ghosting has not been an issue on analog. I thought that ghosting was caused by multiple antenna's. I figured adding a second antenna would result in ghosting/reduced signal strength for my digitals (the ones that will rely on the ms2000). Sounds like what I need to do is follow your...

    Second antenna

    Rick, Thanks, very helpful. All of your assumptions were correct. I do have a pbs channle at 22. I assume that I might have issues with that channle, but I never watch it anyway. I have another pbs that is in the vhs range that is very strong. I have one more question just out of...

    Second antenna

    Rick, Your idea looks good. A few questions: 1. Is there an advantage to using the Jointenna instead of a splitter. I have read information supporting either method? What has been your experience with either setup? 2. Is the 43xg better than the Winegard SquareShooter or just...

    Second antenna

    oljim, I refuse to put an antenna on my roof.....and my hole to my attic is 2' by 2'........please recommend your one "good" antenna that will make it up there. I will gladly purchase it. Keep in mind I am trying to pull channles that are due west of my house 31 miles, Northwest of my house...

    Second antenna

    I live in Tolono Illinois......8 miles South of Champaign-Urbana. I use a Winegard MS-2000 (Omnidirectional) mounted in my attic to get my HD Locals. I get reception on all of the locals that I expect to, but my FOX signal out of Gifford Illinois (37 Miles away) is kinda weak (low 70's)...

    They replaced the lnb and poooof.......Problem fixed. John

    Even transponders going belly up

    All Dish Pro. As I said before.....my 411 checks out perfect. I personally think the problem is isolated to the 301 receiver or possibly the #1 output of the dp44. But if it is the dp44, why did a new 301 fix the problem for a while?

    500 or SuperDish???

    Once my locals go to E10, would I be better off to keep my superdish and adjust to max out 110 and 119 with it or put my old 500 back up? John

    Dish accepted NY HD LOCAL waiver!

    I called my local CBS which does not broadcast any HD. They E-mailed me a waiver on a Friday, I faxed it to Dish on same Friday.........Called Dish on the following Tuesday and POOOOOFF!! I had CBSNY HD on my TV. Of coarse I had to go to TECH ASSIST and then had to have the csr put me on with...

    Champaign Ill HD locals.....E10

    Any Idea as to wether or not local HD's will be broadcast over satellite once E10 goes into service? I can get them over antenna but have some problems with some channles looking more like a slide show if weather conditions are not just right. Also, any information on when E10 is expected to...

    Need help with DISH HDTV equipment/package

    You need to be able to see 110, 119 and either 61.5 or 129 to get all of the HD programming (Voom is at 61.5 and 129). If you have a dish 1000 the csr is correct. (1000 looks at 110, 119 and 129) If not then you will need a dish 1000 OR a second dish pointed at either 61.5 or 129

    Where can I get a Pole to mount a dish?

    Try Stainless Steel Sch 40 pipe. Will not rust. Plenty beefy. Can be polished to shine like chrome.

    Help Me!! DP 44 switch (is this how is get cbs hd from dish

    WRONG!! K.C. Locals are on 119 but I agree not in HD. He wants CBSHD, I assume NY. He can get all of his SD programming from 110 and 119, with the 1000 dish and use the 500 dish to get all available HD programming including CBSHD with waiver. Three birds = Dp34. Chances are in the future...

    Help Me!! DP 44 switch (is this how is get cbs hd from dish

    Look hear to see which birds have what programming. http://ekb.dbstalk.com/61-5list.htm Your 1000 dish will look at the 110,119,129 birds. The 500 dish can be used to look at the 61.5 bird. Sounds like all you need to do is look at 3 birds therefore do what Iceberg said to do. Not clear...
