    My SWM system completely lost all signals yday and has not found them

    At some point during the day yday, my signal went to ZERO on all of my receivers. The electricity in my house did fail for a few minutes yday, so I don't know if this could have been a factor. I unplugged all receivers, unplugged the SWM power, and then slowly tried to reconnect. Still...

    HR22, can the 2nd tuner be disabled?

    hugromieo, this appears to have worked perfectly. Thanks very much. This will allow me to have more DVRs (that can record only the channel that I'm tuned to) without using as many of the 8 tuners that my SWM will allow. Thanks very much.:D

    HR22, can the 2nd tuner be disabled?

    My reason for removing the 2nd tuner has nothing to do with cost. I'd be happy to pay for it, if that would solve my problem. The problem is that I'm trying to figure out how to make my new SWM install handle 12 tuners, while some people have told me that it is limited to 8. I thought that...

    HR22, can the 2nd tuner be disabled?

    With an HR22-- is there a way to turn off the 2nd tuner? I recognize that this would prevent me from watching 1 program while recording another, but I don't need that functionality. Thanks

    Frustration with Install, should I switch?

    I agree that the early morning appointment is the most predictable. However, most of my action at work occurs before noon each day. It is much easier for me to leave work early in the afternoon than it is to show up at work around noon.

    Frustration with Install, should I switch?

    The Tate, I think that the "stucco" that you are describing is the much hated artificial stucco. Mine is actually 3 layers of concrete put on over a period of a week. Dragon, with regard to which cable company, I would be dealing with Time Warner. I don't like them, but I don't understand...

    Frustration with Install, should I switch?

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and I'm writing because I had an appointment scheduled for today to get the upgrade to the MPEG4 dish. The installer did not call until 5:00 (for my 1:00 to 5:00 time slot) and he explained that he would get to my house after 6:00. I told him don't bother coming...
