Greetings I have a 1000.4 on a post with a solo node hanging on the dish. I am going to move the solo node into a detached garage to get it off the back side of the dish where it is just hanging, and get it inside. I will run 2 cables from the dish to the node and then a single cable from the...

i just took a look at the lnb and now it all makes sense. i see the input that i will run the 500 to. skew at 0 right? only looking at 61.5 the odd thing is this is what my lnb looks like this diagram says i should not get 61.5. the 2 cables go to the solo node. but hopper says i am...

it has been a year and i am back at this. the trees are leafing out. since my original post, i have installed a hopper. so now the question is: if i: swap the turbo dish and the 500. cover the 61.5 on the turbo and use it for 72 and 77 use a single location on the 500 for 61.5 where does...

Greetings, I had a Hopper installed 2 months ago. During the installation, the installer said he prefers to have the single node installed as close to the Hopper as possible. He said that every action done at the Hopper sends a signal back to the single node and then returns back to the...

wow, good call. just looked at the channel list. i didn't see anything on 77 i subscribe to. i didn't realize this. thank you, bruce

Greetings, I currently have a dish 1000.4 set up for eastern arc. I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The trees are leafing out and 77 is starting to become obstructed. 72 is a little better and 61.5 is clear line of site. There is one cable coming from the dish to the DVR. Here is the dish...

greetings, i am getting back to his now that my HT is set up. there appear to be two types of extenders. this one has little sticky emitters that go over the IR receiver: BlastIR by Sewell, IR Emitter and Receiver Kit - SW-29311, $44.95 this one uses an emitter that sits close to the...

greetings, i would like to place my 722 in a cabinet that will not receve the IR remote signal. is there a device that will maybe connect to the uhf antenna port, run a cable by the tv and then receive IR commands from my Harmony 550? thank you for any help. bruce

a question on streaming and the interface: is there a way to view streaming titles on-line and add to a queue to watch later or is the interface in the 722 the only way to see and choose? i see the filters, but it is still a long list and linear. BTW: PQ is very good TIA

thank you for the reply. i called dish and the first csr said no problem and transfered me to dispatch and the call got dropped. called back and got all set up and am scheduled for Saturday install. thanks again geek

just got done with chat asking about missing HD channels. he said i was getting all the channels and no need to do anything. i am in 55304 zip code 200 with HD and Platinum mixed arc 110 119 and 61.5 was he correct? TIA geek

like many here i have the 61.5, 110 and 119 setup. the 61.5 dish is connected to the 110/119 dish by a single cable. if i buy a 1000.4 dish, can i just replace the 61.5 dish and use the existing cable that runs to the 110/119 dish or do i need an additional switch? thank you bruce

thank you, that is the info i was looking for. i appreciate your help. bruce

and then did you bond that ground rod to the main house ground? code says you must. bruce

i used the 1-5/8 chain link fence post as stated above. was about $7 at Lowes. -when i installed mine, i dug the hole and dropped half of a concrete block into the bottom. -then i put the post in the hole and filled it in while keeping it plumb with a level. tamp the fill with a 2x4 as you...

AND that second ground rod MUST be bonded to the primary home ground. bruce

both the mast and the cable must be grounded. a separate wire is required to ground the mast. sometime there is a messanger wire molded in to the cable and it must be copper clad steel 17awg or better. or a separate ground wire can be run from the mast. in your situation, that is probably the...
