A family member received this letter last week (attached)... Does anyone have any details on this? Family member has VIP211k's with a 110, 118, 119, 129 dish. They would like to keep using the 211k's because they are used to the easy to use basic interface and utilize the OTA tuner. I'm not...

I recently upgraded my VIP211 EHD to a new 2TB Western Digital. The old 1TB EHD still has all the DISH data on it. I want to get all the recorded shows/movies transferred from my old 1TB EHD to my new 2TB EHD. After I connected my new 2TB EHD to the VIP211 and let in format I disconnected...

I am trying to scan in OTA RF channel 12, WMOW - Crandon, WI. WMOW transmits 1 main channel and 2 subchannels (3 total). When I try to manually add RF ch 12 on the 211k it comes in as ch "0" and will not add the channels to the guide so they can be viewed. When I try the scan with a DTVPal...

I installed the Skywalker brand "Choice Select" IR extender (CHO1020 IR Distribution, CHO1030 IR Target, CHO1024 Single IR Emitter) to control a DISH VIP211k. The setup works but the response is VERY sluggish. For example I have to press "GUIDE" on the 20.0 IR remote for 2+ seconds before I...

I picked up a ViP211k remanufactured receiver on eBay for $40.00 I want to use the receiver for dish pointing/tweaking purposes. Connected the receiver to a dish and it properly connected to the switch/LNBs and downloaded the updated firmware, etc. Now the receiver just stays stuck on Step...

Old Dish 1000 Antenna Gain? Does anyone know the gain of the old Dish 1000 antenna? This is the antenna that came out in ~2005 for 110, 119, 129 using 1 dual and 1 single LNBF. I am using it for 61.5 only (1 LNBF). I use the single rectangle to D-Tube adapter DISHSTORE.NET used to sell so the...

Does anyone know if Dish will ever offer a dual tuner (2 TV) receiver with HD output for the second TV (TV 2)? It seems the easiest way to do this would be to resurrect a feature Dish had with the old Model 5000 (I think it was the 5000) receiver, the 8VSB HDTV digital modulator output. An...

I have a 211 receiver with a DPP44 switch and 2 dishes looking at 61.5, 110, 119, and 129. I was previously looking at 118.7 instead of 61.5. I needed 118.7 for EuroNews. My locals are the Green Bay, WI market. Looking at 61.5 instead of 118.7 is fine, I still get EuroNews plus I now get...

I recently aquired a SuperDish 121 and a 118.7 LNBF with 129 bracket. The 118.7 LNBF/bracket I have is the "Dish 1000+" type (aluminum color bracket(s), not painted grey). I installed the SuperDish 121 on my roof and bolted the 118.7 LNBF to the arm(I had to drill 2 holes in the arm so I...
