Thanks Matt. I will give that a try a bit later. What are the downsides of Band B, if any?

I'm having some trouble with distance of my 6.3 UHF Pro remotes to our 622 DVR. I'm seeing references on the internet that Band B would give us better distance and should be possible with the 622, however I can't seem to get it to work. Is it possible to use that combination? If so, can...

I know this *used to* work. Then there was a period where DishComm stopped working altogether for me. Now, DishComm is working again, but for some reason won't share the caller id information. Any hints for fixing this?

I have a 622 and 722 DVR in the house. The 722 has a phone line connected and caller ID is working. The two DVR's can see each other via DishComm, but the caller ID is not showing on the 622. I'm not sure what might be going on? Is there any way to fix this? Thanks, Craig

That was it. The picture looks significantly better when it isn't all stretched out of whack. Thanks!

Doh. I forgot about that. Will try it and see if that works (crossing fingers)

I recently noticed that the HD picture from my Vip 722 is being chopped off on the top and bottom by quite a bit. Thinking it was my TV, I attempted to adjust this morning only to find that the chopped off portions aren't really being sent to the TV. I have the DVR hooked to the TV using...

Well, that sucks. :-) Thanks.

I see references to the problem. Has anyone come up with a solution? Do I just need to disconnect the power cable on both receivers and do a hard reset?

I'm not exactly sure when it stopped working, but the DishComm setup I had working between my Vip 622 and Vip 722 DVR's is no longer transmitting caller ID information. That is a huge bummer. I remember when I first set it up, the automatic scan didn't work and I had to add the other...

I have a 622 and 722 in the house. I have a couple of questions about the way they behave... wondering if the behavior can be altered. 1) Is there a particular reason that OTA stations cannot be shown on TV2? I've connected an OTA antenna for my step daughter to get her shows on The CW. Is...

I was afraid asking the antenna question was probably dangerous. Can anyone answer concerning the wiring part of things? Given that I'm not interested in a large antenna, can anyone offer a better suggestion than the square shooter or the lacrosse?

Thanks for the reference. That looks pretty darn easy. A couple of other questions to make sure I do this correctly. Would I pair the 4032IFD with a 4001IFD (times two) inside the house? Is that the correct match? Does it matter whether I place the 4032IFD before or after the ground block...

I should add that for both receivers, the TV2 outputs are being fed back through my house's previous cable to other TV's. Unfortunately, I can't use my home's cabling to distribute the OTA signal.

I feel like an idiot with this stuff. I've asked a few different questions in this group and I still can't quite get it into my head how to fit all of this together. I have 622 and 722 receivers in my house connected to the Dish 1000 dish. There are two lines coming from the satellite that go...

I finally did enough reading to understand how this all works and now understand that it won't work. Thanks for helping set me straight!

Nice. Looks like lots of interesting information. I will do some digging around. Thanks

OTA is not diplexed onto the satellite lines. I have two receivers... a 622 and a 722. Both receivers have a separate line entering the house. What I'm considering is bringing in an OTA signal from outside via my old cable connection that is not being used anymore. The cable runs in the...

I believe I understand diplexers enough to know the answer to this, but I want to verify. I would like to use a diplexer to send the TV2 signal out from the DVR while receiving the signal from an OTA antenna to that same DVR. Given that radio frequencies are a form of alternating current, I...

Excellent! That worked great. What are the chances that if I put the units back on surge protectors that things will continue to work?

Is ABC messing around with their schedule data? I have things set up to end 1 minute beyond schedule, but most ABC shows end up cut off at the end by a minute or so. Am I missing something about the way the Dish DVR's work?

I've now direct-connected both receivers to the outlets without the surge protectors. Unfortunately, the receivers are still not seeing each other. What else can I do at this point to get this going?

I got my 625 -> 722 upgrade today. I also have a 622 in the house. I had hoped to use DishComm to share caller ID information, but for some reason the receivers are not seeing each other in DishComm. Both of them are hooked up to surge protectors, but I'm not sure if that is the issue or not...

Backing up to the programming access fee... Looking at the two DVR's I don't have a phone line near either one of them, but I'd really love to save that $10/month. I've seen talk recently about the internet connection stuff (which I have nearby both DVR's)... Can that be used instead? Does...

Nope... which may explain some of what I'm missing.
