This worked for me. First choose a tv2 output channel in the 322 menu that is not close to the antenna channels. Then combine the tv2 output and the antenna using a standard 3 terminal splitter. So you will have the one existing coax going to your second tv. I am assuming your second tv has an...

With enough luck you might be able to get that WA dish lined to get one or the other of 61.5 or 72.7 but never both at the same time. The WA lnb spacing is not the same as for the EA. Suggest that you search craigslist for a free or cheap used EA dish and then either swap the lnb's or the whole...

You need to peak your dish for the strongest signal.

Well said "northgeorgia", nice explanation.

Well, what you say is true. If you like watching the news it probably will be interesting to you. There are actually a couple feeds there usually with different content.

Its mostly ethnic, sometimes soccer and various religious programming on Galaxy 19. There are a few channels on other satellites that I watch occasionally including PBS. However mostly I enjoy FTA as a hobby just to see what I can get but then I very seldom find anything I want to watch. I rely...

You need an FTA dish and attach a linear lnb to it. Sometimes you can find a used one all setup on Craigslist. Otherwise checkout Ebay or Sadoun Satellite Sales.

One thing you can do is check the signal strength on satellite 110. That would give you 19 degrees separation from 129 and be further from the tree. The signal strengths on 110 in Detroit should be about: tp14-69, tp15-73, tp16-72 and tp21-74. If your signal strengths are low on this one too...

Alignment it is! You peak the dish based on 119. Then 110, 118 and 129 should naturally fall in place.

Installers when they install a dish are only required to meet a minimum signal level and that does not always mean that the dish is peaked for maximum signal especially for 118. The Dishnet dma chart shows that in Detroit sat.119 tp21 should have a 79 signal level. TP 14 should be 67, TP15...

118 signal. That would have to be a pretty big tree to interfere with both 129 and 118. 118 is an fss satellite and the signal coming from there is quite a bit weaker than other Dishnet satellites. Accordingly the dish also needs to be aimed very precisely. I would guess that your dish needs to...

Go to www.sadoun.com and you can find installation guides and videos.

It is not any ole splitter you can buy anywhere. It is designed specifically for the Directv SWM ( Single Wire Model ) system. This is what you have as evidenced by the picture of the power inserter in your first post. Try Solid Signal, Sadoun, Amazon or Ebay .

Exactly.

Directv SWS splitter. You need to get a Directv SWS type splitter. That is an SWS2, SWS4, or SWS8 depending on how many future receivers you may want to have.

The requirement was that each of all 3 receivers be able to get both polarities. If the lnb output of one receiver is used to feed another receiver then that receiver is a slave and would only get the polarity the original receiver is tuned to.

I am thinking ahead and that is what precipitated my original question. I now get KBS from 61.5 and I am just curious if in the future I will have to change my dish setup to get 118.7. I guess at this point it is unpredictable what Dishnet will do. So we'll just have to wait and see and adjust...

KBS is currently on both 61.5 and 118.7. Since it is considered a Public Interest Channel, does anybody know, will it be left on both satellites or in the future will it be on just 118.7?

Back in March I successfully accomplished exactly what you are trying to do with the dish 500 reaimed for 61.5/72.7. The explanation for what I did is contained in post #'s 15 and 22 of the thread named " Dish told me to switch to 77-which transponder?" started by "berthher". Check out that...

That is assuming that he has a 722k and that he has the optional ota tuner kits installed. At this point I don't think we know what he has and I was hoping that as a forum we could give him enough general information so that he can choose what is applicable to his situation.

Update to previous reply. Connecting the antenna to the the dish receiver will only give you locals on tv 1. For tv2, the remote tv's, you have to get the antenna connection directly to the tv's through the splitter as mentioned before.

On the back of your dish receiver look to see if you have an antenna input. If you do then hook antenna to that input. Then on your dish remote, push buttons menu,6,9(local channels) and auto scan.

I have been having the audio dropout problem on my 622 for several months now. Tv sound thru HDMI goes out but audio still works on Home Theatre system. Happens on various channels several times each day but CNN seems to be the worst. What I do is change the channel and then return right away...

Its working for me. Signal level and quality has not changed or even flucuated and I watch every day.
