Yes, I have an MDU head end with a QAM system. I need to know whether or not the dish network transmodulator for Las Vegas HD locals is outputting in 1024QAM or not. If it is, I would need to install a different type of transcoder in my rack as the current one doesn't support 1024. Dish Network...

anybody? Sniff Sniff

I'm contemplating if I need to replace some current QAM equipment to retrieve HD locals at my hotel in Vegas. Can someone confirm if the Dish Net. Locals have been switched to broadcasting in 1024 QAM or not? If so, do you have a nationwide list of some sort showing this? Any help would...

No, they're not showing up in the guide, however the other channels that are on the same transponder are. Extremely odd. The QAM system just remodulates it. You just gave me great advice indirectly. I didn't think to try to pull in discovery HD pre-QAM system straight off the satellite and...

Hey Guys, I'm at a loss. I'm getting transponder 17 off of 129 satellite that carries for example Lifetime HD, Discovery HD, and TLC HD. I'm using a 211 receiver for testing. (for the gurus, i'm running off a QAM Head End) I'm able to get Lifetime and this transponder shows strong...

You got bad advice from dish networks call center?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOO WAY! Glad you got it worked out. :)

Ahh so with that said 211's don't have analog tuners either. That's a big 10-4 good buddy!

I believe I answered my own question. IF someone who could confirm this would be great. I guess it's true that it won't pass.

I have a 12 ch. analog head end system at a property with a QAM overlay. I'm running into a problem with scanning the 12 analog channels onto the 622. I can scan them fine on the 381 (which doesn't use a qbox). It appears that the qbox is blocking the analog feed on the line as the 622 will only...

Out of curiosity, leave the qbox hooked up to 211 however unplug the input from your wall and try to scan from 861 to 861. Then reconnect cable from wall into qbox and try to run a scan from frequencies 57-861.

nevermind. I power cycled receiver after putting into single mode. The #2 UHF remote started working perfectly for tv#1! Problem solved :)

Well, when you scanned the receiver in QAM mode what were your frequencies set too?

Just so i'm clear as well, I just don't want to use the uhf remote as an IR remote for TV one. I want to keep UHF functionality.

Yes 211's work with Q-Boxes, I use them all the time. What were your frequencies set to? This could be the reason why your results showed nothing.

Just as title states, I want to use the 622 in single mode and have the supplied 6.3 UHF/IR remote as a UHF remote for TV1. How do I do this? I know it's been talked about however nothing clear in my mind and I've tried everything I could come up with. Thanks

10-4:up

I did get a reply back from Dish Networks National Manager. I won't post all of it however a clip of what they say caused it "Reports of Model 2800 receivers on certain channels tuning to channel 101 early on the morning of March 31st appear to correlate in time with routine maintenance...

Very true, I did check Randal's thread and nothing was listed for 2800's.

come to find out, only certain receivers that were on certain channels were effected. For example Bravo, ABC family, etc

No listed FW updates. Pateco, i had no reported issues over the weekend. All today and starting about 10am EST. The head end you had problems with, 2800's?

Interesting

it's definitely worth while. One thing I considered was taping the IR receiver on the box that was tuned correctly and trying this however this is something I have to walk properties over the phone and don't feel confident in having them do

how can I register on dishretailer? nevermind i see

yeah, but the receivers that are tuned correctly will be changed.
