    DISH Locals - DMA/ZIP mismatch ???

    Anybody else have this problem??? If your Dish Locals DON"T remap to the station channel numbers on your Dish receivers, you may have a DMA/ZIP mismatch!!! You can check this out by going to "zap2it.com" and entering your zip code. Next, select TV listings for DishNetwork. If the local...

    721/921 Caller ID log fills up!

    This is too obvious, but my caller ID stops working on both my 721 and 921 when the caller ID Log fills up! I have not counted how many calls the log holds, but deleting some or all of them brings the function back to life every time! Stingray

    921 not the cause of the problem in DEtroit

    Over the last couple of weeks the dialog volume was extremely low on several prime time shows on WDIV Detroit digital. Of course my first thought was that it was the fault of the 921 but, after talking to WDIV engineeering today, they are having problems with a new Dolby 5.1 encoder on their...

    One OTA (ABC) won't lock - any ideas?

    The 921 is now one week old and working marvelously (almost). All of my local digitals locked in properly with a Scan Digital command except for ABC (41-1) which was a no-show. :confused: I did a manual add DTV with without success. When it trys to lock in on 41 the signal bar oscillates...

    Any 921 timer problems with Detroit OTA's?

    Gentlemen - How well is your 921 handling the HD OTA signals from Detroit locals? Can you select programs from the guide to record as you would with a 501 or 721, or do you have to set up timers manually? Do the DVR functions (pause, rew, fast fwd.) work on all the Detroit HD's? Any other...

    How do I add a 5th receiver???

    How do I add a 5th (and 6th) receiver??? EDITED Can I add a 921 to my present 721, 6000 and 508 setup?? I have a 500 dish for 110/119 and a 300 dish for 61.5 feeding a 64 switch. The 64 switch presently feeds the 721 (2 feeds) a 6000 and a 508. All LNB's are legacy twins. When my 921 is...

    Charlie comes through in a big way!

    Well now it's over and the overreactors that were ready to jump ship and condem Charlie as a greedy lunitic will have to find a new issue to rant about! Charlie has certainly been more than generous in offering $1 to $2 to us for the brief interruption of Viacom programming that was down...

    SW 64 not working at all!!! Help

    Help! I just put in a sw 64 switch to feed three receivers from three legacy dual LNBF's. I'm using my 6000 as receiver 1 with the power inserter. The other two receivers are a 501 and a 508. The switch check fails from any of the receivers and there is no signal from any transponder...

    921 should ship in two months???

    I made a statement earlier about having to wade through lots of speculation on this list...... well, here's some more! I just got off the phone with a tech support person talking about the local channel mapping problems I'm having with my 501 and 508, when I asked her if she knew when the...

    Local channel mapping - NOT !

    This issue has been on the forum before, but has never been resolved, so with fingers crossed, lets try again! My PVR 501 shows locals in the guide by their OTA channel number (2, 4, 7 ,50, etc.). The 508 purchased last May has never worked this way. Many calls to tech support has had no...

    Need help to connect 61.5 & 110/119 dishes to 6000 rcvr.

    I have a 500 dish with a DUAL LNB (4 wires) feeding thru 2 SW21 switches to a PVR 501 and a PVR 508. I also have a 300 dish (for 61.5)with a twin LNB (2 wires) feeding directly to my 6000. Only one output of the twin is in use. I would like to feed the 6000 from the 500 dish as well as the...
