    All, I have been out of the Dish Network world for six months. We sold our house and have been living with the in laws. Dish talked me into putting my account on vacation for $5 a month and they comp'd me 3 of the six months. They told me to take my receivers and remotes and leave the...

    After 622 install I have no audio on TV2

    Gotta picture but no audio. What gives? Also the signal strength is at about 75. Had a moderate T-storm last night that dropped out the signal. It took a much bigger storm with my old system to be affected.
