    942 HDMItv signal issues

    checked systems Yeah we already replaced the cables. The only setting in the TV for the HDMI input was to set the audio to auto. The tv is HDCP compliant.I think that the input is bad on the TV.We have replaced the rcvr. twice with still the same issues. No audio comes through either.

    Jumping E* Ship

    Directv uses mainly Ironwood Communications and Mountain satellite to do their own installs.Ironwood has 90 offices in 35 states and more than 40,000 employees.Definately not a cheap contractor!

    Super Dish Type 2

    There is no reason why a type 2 dish will not work with a 301 rcvr.type 1 is a metal superdish and type 2 is a fiberglass dish.All dp equipment will work with superdish.

    Installation questions....what will the installer do?

    If your house was just recently built then more than likely rg-6 cable was used in the pre-wire.The 522 rcvr requires that 2 cables be run in from the dish to the rcvr.2 tuners....2 lines.After the line gets in to the rcvr then the installer can use the existing prewire to finish up svc.to your...

    Your switch will be inside your quad lnb.It is built in to the lnb instead of the good old days where it was left to be installed seperately.Do you have 2 dishes?Could also be a bad sw-21 if only one rcvr is affected.
