    Upgrading to dish 1000.2

    I thought I had it, but now I have 119 and not 110. This dish is a bit more difficult to aim than my 500. Usually when I have 119 I also have 110 with my older dishes. The azmuth is 154 elev 44 skew 82. zip95701.

    Upgrading to dish 1000.2

    OK, Got the new dish 1000.2 , hooked the cable to the #2 lnb and got it mounted. Found 110 easily, but can't find 119 at all. It's basically pointed to the same coordinates as the 500. Covered the center lnb which was getting 110 and can't find anything. What's wrong? Sorry, I panicked. Just...

    loosing channel 205 late afternoon

    Today should prove something. It's cloudy and showery so not so hot on the dish and connections. I haven't had much above 45 on any channel since Dish said they " adjusted my meter" in set up. Said the signal would be the same but indicate lower. WHAT? Nothing near enough to me to cause...

    loosing channel 205 late afternoon

    Yeah, it's probably an lnb or some kind of connection problem as it acts up just as the sun is not full on the antenna and it's cooling off. Isn't the 1000.2 a bigger dish than my 500? Figured I might get a stronger signal as it's only 35 now.

    Upgrading to dish 1000.2

    I'll wait till it gets here. It's called a DPP LNB and looks to be one unit with the 3 LNB's sticking out.

    Upgrading to dish 1000.2

    I haven't received the Dish as yet, but the picture showed 3 separate lnb's, so I guess I'll need a switch after all. I've seen prices all over the place. Who has a good price on a DP 44?

    Upgrading to dish 1000.2

    Right now I have a DVR 510, dish 500 2 lnb's with sw21 switch and one coax to one receiver. I just bought a Dish Network 1000.2 dish with the 3 lnb's. What switch do I need? May want Hi Definition sometime later. Also do I need to change my Coax?

    Have you tried about 8 degrees to the west to get 119 and a little up? If you find 119 you should get both birds.

    loosing channel 205 late afternoon

    For the last couple weeks I loose channel 205 intermittently right around 5PM for about an hour. SIGNAL is 35 and then no signal for a few second and then on again and off again. All day long no problem. Sun is shining 90 degrees across the face of the dish when it happens. Thought it was that...

    Jim, Thank you, thank you. This was driving me nuts. I set the old remote to the same remote address as what was on the system info page. Works fine now. Duh. Ken

    DVR510 Remote Problem

    I just replaced my dead DVR510 receiver with another DVR510. The remote that came with the newer one is pretty worn and some pads don't work. Why doesn't my old remote work with the newer receiver? It worked perfectly with the old receiver before it died. I thought they were all the same and...
