    Is there any way to get Directv to add a subchannel to the OTA module?

    I'm using the AM21 module, and it's missing one of the subchannels. The channel is MOVIES! and it airs on subchannel 8-3 via my local CBS network. I can get 8-1 and 8-2 (which is MeTV), but 8-3 does not appear in the listings. I re-did the antenna setup, but it just doesn't appear. The...

    Remote Control problem with Manhattan

    I just purchased the Manhattan receiver after my Openbox bit the dust in less than year. Software is the same, so I didn't really have to learn a new receiver, which is a plus. The problem I'm having is with the remote control. I can't get it to do anything without being about a foot from the...

    My HOA is forcing me to say goodbye to DISH

    Got a pretty threatening letter in the mail from my HOA today. Basically, all units in my complex who do not have a dish in a "private use" area, will be forced to remove the dishes and repair any damage the install may have caused by August 15th, or face pretty hefty fines. They say, in the...

    Cannot upgrade to new firmware

    I am having problems trying to update to the latest firmware on my Azbox Premium HD. I have tried both via Internet method and USB with no luck. Via Internet, the file will download to around 50%, and then stop, giving me a "failed to update" message. Via USB, the box sees the file and I can...

    Question about Remote Access App

    I was wondering if there is any way of turning off the receiver with this app. I haven't been able to find a way. This presents a problem if I go away for an extended period of time. I don't want my receiver to be on (full power) for a week or two when I'm not home. I would like to be able...

    My friend is already regretting getting a 922

    He's had nothing but problems with it since it was installed on Friday. The only thing that has gone right was that he successfully transferred his recordings off of the EHD. Since Friday, the receiver has locked up and rebooted itself 17 times that he knows of. It has failed to record...

    A heads up for anyone thinking of upgrading to a 922

    If you have recordings on your old receiver that you're going to want to migrate over to the 922, you won't be able to do this at the present time. Also, if you do not have an activated EHD on your account and need to save your recordings, do this BEFORE you set up an appointment to have a 922...

    How do you add TP's with an Azbox Premium?

    I've decided to get myself an Azbox and have had it for about a week now. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to add TP's with this thing. Without blindscanning capabilities, adding TP's is a must. I go into the area of the menu where you can, supposedly, add TP's but they are never...

    Motor moving by itself

    I just noticed something strange with my FTA system. It seems that when the receiver is off, the motor moves at intervals of about every 15 minutes. It doesn't move much, maybe for like 3-4 seconds. I noticed this because, when I'm in the bathroom, I can hear the motor going due to where the...

    Cannot get White Springs on new system

    I was helping a friend install a motorized system this past weekend. This is like the fifth install I've done over the past year and a half, so I have pretty good experience in setting these up. Each install has had their various issues to deal with to get the system up and running smoothly...

    Is MGM-HD still uplinked?

    I read that CNN-HD was uplinked into the same channel location as MGM-HD right before it when live. So what happened to MGM? Is it still uplinked or is it gone? Of all the possible new national HD channel additions for E*, this is the one I'm most interested in.

    Audio out of sync on SNY-HD

    Watching Mets pre-game show on SNY-HD and the audio is way off. Is it just me or are others getting this? Weird thing is, the commericals are in sync. Very strange.

    Lost ability to pay bill via 622

    I went to pay my bill last night via the 622, like I do every month, and noticed that the "pay your bill" area is gone from the customer support screen. There are only three selections you can make, Add Programming, Tech Support, and Cool Features. What's funny is that the crawl on the bottom...

    Setup issues with Sonicview 4000

    I'm working with a friend trying to get his system up and running. He has a SV4k (SonicView 4000) and we can't get anything. Tried for hours. All settings are correct and pole is plumb. No line of sight issues. Very frustrating. One thing I can't figure out with the SV4k is how to set the...

    Lost signal all of a sudden on Trans. 1 Nimiq 2 Expressvu

    All of a sudden, yesterday, I lost signal on transponder 1 on 82. Everything had been fine for the few months I've had Expressvu. No channels on this transponder come in anymore. I know that they've been doing some maintenence on 82, but that shouldn't include completely losing a signal on...

    Winegard 2076 dish mount and motor

    I was wondering if anyone knows if the mount that comes with the Winegard 2076 dish is strong enough to support a motor along with the dish. My equipment just arrived today and the mount doesn't look sturdy enough to support the extra weight of the motor. The dish is going to be installed on...

    Looks like it's a go here in Vegas

    Well, after much searching, I could only find one person who could do my FTA install here in Vegas. I have no choice but to go with the guy who tried to talk me out of a motorized system. Refer to this thread if you don't know what I'm talking about...

    Finally found an installer, now he's trying to talk me OUT of a system

    It took more than 2 weeks, but I finally found a company in Vegas that does FTA systems. I told him I want to get a motorized system and he's trying to talk me out of it. He said they're a real PITA to install and that they are in constant need of tweaking. He also said that they probably...

    Looking to get an FTA system, but have a few questions

    I have a few questions before I decide to purchase an FTA system. The main reason I'm interested in getting one is for the sports backhauls. I'm interested in college football and basketball, MLB, and, to a lesser degree, the NBA. I have browsed other sites, especially Yahoo groups, that list...
