    Terrible lip synch issues

    No, he didn't wire it that way. I was short an HDMI cable and planned to switch the s-video cable out. I didn't have HD before so the s-video was okay. :) The HDMI cable, of course, carries sound as well. If you run a sound cable from the TV to your audio receiver the sound will synch better. I...

    Terrible lip synch issues

    Lip Synch error fixed! Hi Guys, I just upgraded my Dish and got HD. The lip synch error was so bad I was about to cancel my Dish subscription. I gave it some logical thought and decided to change my physical configuration regarding the wires to and from the A/V system. The sound was way...

    Superdish and 625 Dual Tuner

    Long story short...I was under the misguided impression you could get Boston local channels on 121. (It seems that Boston is on 110 which must be spot beam and Providence locals are on 121.) If one were to spend part of the year outside of New England but still wanted to watch his "home" news...

    Boston locals...which satellite?

    Oh, I know. Sorry, I wasn't specific. The difference between Boston locals and Providence locals, geographically speaking, is very small. A few miles can make a difference. We are not sure exactly where we will be living in the next several months so I was just trying to get an idea of what I need.

    Boston locals...which satellite?

    Hmm. I just saw the list and it says Boston is spot beam. I'm guessing you were talking about the HD locals? So if Providence locals are on 121 then I can pick up Providence locals with the SD alone? Also, I assume I would need an HD receiver to get the HD channels on 61.5 if I go that route.

    Superdish and 625 Dual Tuner

    Doh! I knew that. I told you my head was spinning. I meant to use the term separator, not diplexer. I didn't know if there was a "3-way" separator. Of course, that too is wrong giving the info you just gave me regarding the separator. So, the separator "splits" the transponders in order for the...

    Superdish and 625 Dual Tuner

    My head is spinning from all the information on this forum. Wow! Could someone clarify a few things for me? I currently have a Dish 500 with a 625 Dual Tuner. I bought a Superdish (not a DPP) and a DP34 switch. 1. From what I have read so far, it seems that I need to run 2 cables from the...
