Anyone?? jack

Hi... I live in US, but i am moving to Ecuador soon. In the city I am moving to (and in many places in Ecuador) they offer DirectTV. In Ecuador it is legal for you to own your own equipment just like it is in the US. I would like to buy a DVR and dish here in the US and ship it with my...

heat & the 622 Shaggy.... The laptop cooler is a great idea. Also, the 622 sucks in cool air from the right, and blows out warm air on the left. So you can place your fans accordingly. Be carful not to suck air out where cool air goes in, and don't blow the warm air back into the...

Doing a Master Reset P Smith... I have a need to try this. Looking at the remote, I see a big blue left arrow key (Themes) and a big blue arrow key (Browse). I also found the small blue "Info" button. But I have not been able to find a button called SD/HD. I have looked on the...

Mystery 3 tabs Ah! I see where the three tabs are now. I will try to remove the front faceplate today when I remove my internal fan. If I can, I will find the model numbe of my WD HD and report back. Thanks again. mraroid

fun with fans I like it. Great idea. I have found that noise levels of 32dBA and above is just way too loud (when installed inside the 622 with the cover on). And I am hard of hearing! So when I look at fans for the 622, I am looking for a much lower noise figure. When I installed my first...

Model "E" I like it. I have an "F". I have looked again and again at my front plastic panel, but I have been unable to find the 3 tabs. Can you give the unanointed some extra guidence as to the tabs location? I look forward to it. I appreciate all the work you have done, and also your...

temperature probes bhelms.... Just looked at that thread. Your are *THE* man! Great work with the mods. I have a low noise, high volume fan I am about to mount as a internal fan like you have done. Can you tell me how you attached your fan to the internal 622 fan vent & hard drive...

Finding that 129 satellite. I am up and running. Thanks to all of you for the help! Yea, finding that 129 Satellite was *hard* I had to move very slow. But I found it. I had another issue with a interment connector on my RG6. Fixed that. And yea, I had to look a few degrees higher than...

What voltage for the 129 LNBF? 18V? Hello... I am up on my roof today. I have a single 129 LNBF (that I took off of a D1000 dish) installed, alone in a 500 dish. I am going to use a Channel Master model 1008IFD unit to fire up the LNBF, and then look for the satellite. My Channel Master...

High end LNBF? And I may go that route Miner... I'll try this set up first. Also I would like to figure out what I am doing wrong. Sounds like a "locate the &^%$# 129 satellite" issue. Read: Install needs training! :-) Miner.... I am totally interested in a Low Noise LNBF for the 129...

finding that pesky 129 bird Out west where I am, I am looking at an elevation of 37.2 degrees. As I was planing to do a self install, I bought a Channel Master model 10081FD. It looks like that was a good idea. I am going to fire it up and use it today. Thanks for the help dodge. mraroid

finding that pesky 129 bird Folks.... Thanks so much for the help and many tips. Here in the Pacific North West where I live, the local contract installers often find that the 129 LNBF will not work well, if at all, in the D1000 dish. Some folks get lucky, but most are unhappy. So the...

622 at Costco; $449.99 Hi. I know you want to lease, and not buy. But if you do end up buying, try Costco. I just picked a VIP622 up for $449.99 from them. mraroid

Hello folks... Can someone give me a tip about why I can not get my 129 LNBF to see anything? I bought my own VIP 622, and did a self install. Here is my story: I have a D1000. I live in the Pacific North West. I installed the D1000, but I removed the 129 LNBF from it. I mounted the...

temperature probe & the 622 You know, I believe I can. I will move my probe and get some benchmarks. I still have some work on the roof yet to do, so I have not turned on service yet. I expect to in a week or so (it is raining non stop where I live). When my service is on, then I can get...

hard drive & other 622 mods Sorry. I would have broken that "warranty" sticker, but I keep thinking that a software update will kill my HDMI connector. If that happens I want to return it and have DN give me a new unit. I have decided to buy my 622, not lease it. So after a year, when...

DT generators No. That is a tone generator that is used to trace open or shorted telco wire. It does not generate dial tone tone. mraroid

HD cooling in the 622 P. Smith.... I just picked up a version "F" 622 at Costco. It looks like the HD housing & cooling is the same as your earlier version. I would have pulled the entire assembly, but it had a sticker on it that said my warrany would be void if I did. I was thinking...

more internal fan mod Cool! I hope you will post pictures of this. I am about to install a internal fan somewhat like yours today or tomorrow. mraroid

Internal 266 fan mods Mark.... Is your 4" fan suspended over the BCM chip, or resting on top of it? I was thinking about a internal fan mod. Did you take a picture of the inside of your 622 when you did this mod? mraroid

power tap Nice job on the the fan mod. Where did you pull power for the new fan? Mr. Aroid

I will be using the VIP 622. Is the bird at 118.7KU a future bird not in use at this time? I live where it snows and rains all the time. Is the best choise for a dish for DN the Dish 1000 plus? I wanted to get a dish slightly larger that might have more gain during bad weather. Thoughts?
