    622 won't turn on

    Yeah, I've waited. The only new thing I've done is change to VoIP about a month ago, but it's worked fine until yesterday.

    622 won't turn on

    My 622 won't turn on with the remote or the power button on the unit. If I soft boot it (hold the power button) it turns on and works fine. Any suggestions before I call Dish? Thanks Bert

    Check Switch issues - 622/Dish 1000

    The tech finally came to my house on Saturday and had to replace both the DPP Twin and the DP plus on the 61.5. It's been working fine since - fingers crossed. BTW, I only use it in single mode - love the PIP and the use of both tuners for quick channel changes- so I don't think it's a single...

    Check Switch issues - 622/Dish 1000

    Kelton, Did this fix it? I have a scheduled appointement for Sat. but like you, I think most of these guys are clueless. I called Dish last night to see if they would send me a LNBF but they also wanted to charge me. She said that if I waited for the tech that I wouldn't have to pay anything...

    622 Check Switch

    Kelton, Did you try the factory defalts suggested by hdaddikt. So far it's worked for me. Not sure how long it will last but so far so good. Bert

    My box was so new I hadn't set up any timers or favorites so I couldn't tell you. Sorry.

    622 Check Switch

    hdaddikt, For some reason that seemed to work, at least for now. Maybe they should hire you for Tech Support.

    622 Check Switch

    Correct, it's a DP LNB. BTW if I run a check switch at night with only one connection, all sats. come up OK for that connection. I'm thinking or hoping that its a LNB issue and it will get resolved. The wife is not very happy right now.

    622 Check Switch

    Hi Guys, I'm really stumped and very annoyed. About a week and a half ago, my 622 started having check switch issues. It would recognize one satellite input but not the other and would say that the receiver was not connected to the same satellite although it was one cable with a serparator. I...

    Check Switch issues - 622/Dish 1000

    Kelton, I'm having more or less the same issue but have a dish 500 DPP and a remote dish on 61.5. No matter how I try, I could only get all sats up once and it reverted back to the problem when I retuned home that night. I called D* and they are sending me a new 622. I'm not sure if this will...

    Is there any way to get a decent 16:9 SD with 942?

    Bichon, I agree. That is why I only do this when watching SD channels. When I watch HD channels, I switch back to 1080i and 16:9 for full resolution.

    Is there any way to get a decent 16:9 SD with 942?

    What I do is set the resolution to 480i or p and the aspect ratio to 4:3#2, yes, this is for a 16:9 set. Then set the format to zoom and your TV to the desired stretch mode. This will stretch the 4:3 digital channels to fill the screen and produce a much better picture then the dish locals.
