I have a 722k. I bought one of those cheap notebook coolers off of ebay. Also a USB power adapter to plug this into. There are 3 small fans blowing up through the 722k. It brought my temps down to an average 105. The receiver is also in a TV stand encloser along with a Roku box and wireless...

I agree. Get a WRT54G off Ebay or anywhere else. Upgrade to third party firmware (I used DD-WRT, just google). I picked up a WRT54G v6. Downloaded the free firmware and instructions to upgrade. Set up the router as a client bridge (also repeater bridge is an option to extend wireless to any...

My question is what happens if you have a External Hard Drive connected to the USB port on the Dish receiver (722k). Can you connect this device via a seperate USB power block and then plug the RJ45 directly into receiver and still have it function properly?

Thanks for all the comments! My 1000.2 was recently peaked by dish and I have greats numbers (70s thru 87) on all sats. Just was wondering how to side step most rain fade. It's not excessive. Usually it's not when it's raining all the time but when a storm is moving across the south western...

I'm just wondering if I added a wing (Dish 500/w DP Single) pointed at 61.5 and hooked to ant. in on triple LNB on 1000.2. What would happen when I do get rain fade on 129. Will it automatically switch over to 61.5 for HD? I have a clean look at 61.5.

I'm staying. I enjoy Dish and love their receivers. I have always been treated fair even when I have had a problem. As for Disney and the other HD channels I say "Go Charlie". These channel execs think that something costing a $1 today is worth 2$ tomorrow so the stock holders are kept happy...

I have 625 & 1000.2 with integrated triple lnb. On info screen there is a red X under 129. If I go to the Check Switch screen it shows green on both even and odd transponders on 129. Also if i go to signal strength it has a lock on 129 and I have that channel that says "you are pointed at the...

Here in Ohio we got some snow (18-24"). What cool is I never lost reception from my dish. Last fall I had a new roof put on and I moved the dish from a roof mount (done by Dish) to a face mount (wood face). If it was where they put it, that would be under that pile of snow. I moved it myself...

I took my time. I have a wood face (T-111) on my house. When I bolted the mount I went through the face and into stud. I used those expanding lead hole liners for the lag bolts. With all the ice and snow storms in northeast Ohio this year I haven't had any problems. To each his own. I enjoyed...

Face Mount Here's my story. My dish (500) was mounted on the roof originally. Last year I needed a new roof (20 plus years old). I took the dish down myself along with a tripod that held an over the air antenna. When the roofers were finished I couldn't bring myself to drill down through the...

Thanks to all for the help. All it needed was a move to the left (East) and about a 3 to 4 degree lift on elevation and bingo, 119/110. Also the signal is better than ever. About 100 -110 on the 110 and 115 - 120 on 119. Thanks again for all the help. Wayne

Thanks. Wayne

Can I cover the 110 with foil on the legacy twin to make sure I'm not getting 129 or does it need both LNBF's in the twin (119/110) to peak? Wayne

Thanks guys. I will try again tomorrow. I will check plumb again and raise my elevation and turn a bit east and see what happens. P.S. My reading on 119, even though it's in the number two slot, is higher than it has ever been. Getting between 119 and 120 on the point dish scale. Will that...

My dish was mounted on my roof. Well I needed a new roof so I moved the dish about 6ft away to the face of my house. I leveled the mask and started aiming my Dish 500 with a Legacy Twin. Right now I have 129/119 instead of 119/110. If I turn the dish west I don't find 119/110. What am I doing...
