Thanks guys ! So I'll assume the LNB return instructions in the box are just something they send to everyone and I can safely ignore. Thx !

I called dish last week and cancelled my service and they sent me a box yesterday to return my leased receiver. Inside the box I see a flyer which says I'm required to return the LNB as part of the return process and goes on describing how to pack it along with the receiver. My dishes...

My 18 month contract with Dish is about to expire and I want to cancel everything. Can we do it online ? or do I have to call ? Also I'm leasing a 211 receiver now. Whats' involved in cancellation ? Do I have to send the receiver back ? What about the dishes on my roof ? thanks

I have a dish 1000 installed on my roof and about 3 months ago lost my signal from 129 sat. I had a big tree sorta in the way and I figured it must be the reason. Just last week this tree was removed by my neighbor and now I have a clear path and yet no 129 signal .. I tried rebooting...

I love VOOM too.. agree with the repeats though.. Was an original VOOM subscriber too..

Just an update for my friends here... my replacement receiver arrived and I hooked it up and connected to the 61.5 dish as before and all my previously missing HD channels showed up. :-) After all the problem appears to be with my original receiver. Now I need to go back to my original...

I agree Rich.. I also have some doubt a new receiver will fix this. the Tech I spoke to.. didn't seem to know what the VOOM HD channels are or if they're on the 61.5 sat. I had to explain.. and she wanted me to spell out the channel names. Even after that she sounded clueless. Obviously she's...

Called Dish.. and after being on the phone for almost an hour.. the tech concluded I must be having a faulty receiver.. Offerd to send me a replacement but wanted to charge me for shipping & handling. I was leasing the receiver so I declined to pay. I told her if I'm not getting my channels...

Thanks.. yes I checked the ALL HD and ALL Channels guide and these HD channels are missing. I'll call Dish and see what they says... I have to tell them I disconnected their 1000.2 and hooked this 61.5..... I'll post back with what I find..

Ok I see what you mean... tried this... yes I'm getting signal from all 3 of these (based on signal meter showing below).

Yes I do have 2 diplexers. One on the roof combining voom dish & OTA antenna. I split at the receiver on the ground to seperate the signals. (Had the same setup for my old 811 receiver) I just went to the menu as you suggested. the default transponder showing now is "02". I changed it and...

Can someone points me to a place where I can see what Dish HD channels are available on what satellite etc ? Thanks in advance !

I tried what Randall suggested here but still not getting my VOOM channels. Could this be due to the fact now I'm using a VIP211 receiver ? Previously I used an 811 with this setup and got all the HD channels on 61.5. After upgrading to vip211/1000.2 I didn't use this 61.5 dish until now...

What's HD Essentials ? No.. I didn't change anything.. I have an 18 months contract with Dish. Accounts shows "Dish HD Ultimate" with America's top 100. Are all HD channells on the 61.5 dish ?? (I'm missing all the VOOM + HDnet etc.)

They want me to pay $50 to come back :mad: In the meantime I decided to directly connect my old VOOM dish line to my VIP211 receiver hoping I'll get my old HD channels back. Ran checkswitch and it detected the sat. and program guide was downloaded. However, I don't see the old VOOM...

Thanks Randall ! I just verified I have a 1000.2 dish. So it seems like I can't use my VOOM dish without changing the LNB. Before Dish came to install this new 1000.2, I was using the line coming from the VOOM dish (actually it's a combined signal including an OTA antenna on the roof)...

Thanks.. How to I know I have 1000.2 ? It shows Dish 1000 on the surface. My 61.5 dish is actually an old VOOM dish (anyone remember those ?) Does that mean it probably won't have the dishpro LNB ??? I live in a multi-story townhome and I can't reach this VOOM dish which is installed way...

few months ago Dish installed a single dish on my roof with 3 LNBs so a single cable coming from the roof all the way to my vip211 receiver. All was fine and I was getting 110, 119 & 129 sats with all my HD signals. However just a few days ago I'm no longer getting reception from the 129 sat...

This is interesting... I'm a current sub with dish811 with HDpak($10) + VOOM 10($5). I use the tuner in 811 to receive all my local HD channels using my own local antenna. (Dish has nothing to do with this). From what I'm reading in this forum, I'd probably be better off keeping my current...

confused I'm new to these dish upgrade details and hoping someone will clarify a bit. I'm with dish now subscribing to HDpak($10) + VOOM($5). I use a dish811, and use my own local antenna with the 811 tuner to receive all local HD stations. With this arrangement I have now what will change...

boy921: Thanks a lot. It worked ! I did a factory defaults and my missing favorites list magically re-appeared ! I didn't have to do a reboot. everything looks good for now. Thanks again.

Thanks guys, in my situations I'm unable to do anything with the favorite lists at all. This is true even after I unplug and plug back in after a wait. I'm no longer able to create any new lists or save into anything under "list2" "list3" etc. When I try to save it give me the message...

I'm a ex VOOMer just joining dish and was given dish 811 receiver. I scanned my OTAs and went to the favorites and created a new list by adding from my "All channel" list. Gave a new name to the list and saved the list. Then I got out of this screen, pressed the channel guide button a couple...

I'm using component. What's S-video anyway :-) It wasn't like my VOOM channels look so bad, but I think it was a bit sharper with VOOM. Mostly however, my OTA was definitely better with VOOM receiver. I am not very happy with the 811 receiver, it's not letting me create favorites anymore...

No the menu setup is correct at 1080i. I have lot of problems with this receiver. It won't let me make favorites anymore and my lists dissappear etc. I called dish and they are replacing the 811 although not sure it'll help. Do I need to add an external power source to the antenna input at...
