    Band stop filter issues

    Sounds like the dish is out of alignment, check the signal strength on 99 and 103, not sure which ones they use for your area. Check the mapping when you first sign in.

    Unfortunately these three channels, for most hispanics, are equivalant to CBS,NBC and ABC to others. My phone has been ringing for a week now! We'll see how this shakes out.

    Had a customer with a 622 kept rebooting, and replaced it. The second 622 was rebooting constantly. Swapped it with my showroom, hooked it up at the shop no problems thus far! I'm gonna keep an eye on it till Tuesday.

    Price increase during a RECESSION?

    Unfortunately, ala carte will never happen. The providers get discounts from the programmers for carrying multiple stations. Viacom might own 6 channels, liberty 4, Turner 4 etc. The programmers get money from advertising as well as fees from the providers. Ala Carte ended for the most...

    Wireless phone jack

    A Homeplug to ethernet adapter will do the trick. Use an open ethernet port on your router and plug that into the homeplug adapter. This plugs directly into the wall, do not use a surge protector or power strip. The signal will transfer over your ac wiring. Plug your 722 directly into...

    HDMI does not work on my three year old 622...

    If the the HDMI was working before, then more than likely the pins bent inside the receiver itself. You wouldn't think that a fraction of an ounce could do such a thing but i've seen do it many of times on different devices. The DVI design with the two screws on each sign would have been...

    Cold Weather loss of service.

    Here's what happening with the cold weather. If you were installed with the new single wire swm LNBF and it's made by winegard, they cannot tolerate (work) when the tempature gets below zero. Luckily, I only installed 8 of these heads, as 7 of my customers called with the same problem...

    How much do you verify on your satellite installation?

    Maybe the original foot wasn't centered on the rafter head! Or possibly a line of sight issue hitting the 103 or 99 bird, though I'd think he would tell you that.

    Install set for Friday $44.99 per month

    Sounds fishy, were you a previous customer? If yes, then I could see them doing that. Otherwise it's $49.99 for that package + $4.99 for room 2. This already includes the $23 rebate which you must submit. Expect that to kick in on you 2nd or 3rd bill.

    where to buy my dish?

    Find a local satellite professional! Not a cellular store, wallmart, Sears etc. Hint ask them what LNBF stands for! If they can't answer that keep walking.... (Low noise block feedhorn).

    Unbelievable! I just called a slew of prospective customers waiting on the 622. Looks like they'll have to wait, I'm sure as heck not going to install anymore of these receivers till they fix these problems!
