    grainy/blurry SD channels on HDTV --> dropped Dish

    I finally gave up trying to get an acceptable picture on SD channels http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=41281&page=2. The local guys brought out a 311 receiver and no improvement over the 811 so I had them pull the system. The installer calls Dish to notify them I'm disconnected as...

    811 grainy reception

    I did try the s-video and it helped a little - I think that's mostly due to inputing the signal in the non-digital jacks instead of the DTV inputs. My local Dish installer suggested I try running a video out to my VCR and then back to the TV. He said something about the RF output from the...

    811 grainy reception

    Right now, I don't have any locals because there is apparently something wrong with the satellite that carries them. But they are going to be via Dish, not OTA antenna. I had requested one so I could get my locals in HD but they tried to discourage me from getting one even saying the locals...

    811 grainy reception

    My locals have not been available the last 2 days - the satellite with the locals is not available - presumably due to the ice storm we've had here. The picture looks grainy on all channels whether they are local or not. History channel is a little better than others. It's very noticable on...

    811 grainy reception

    I'm definately new to this so excuse me if my responses sound wrong. I am connected using component cables, 1080i. I don't know what ISF calibrated means so probably not. I couldn't find any settings called "vivid". I fiddled with some of the video settings but it didn't seem to improve...

    811 grainy reception

    I have had a Mitsubishi (WS-55313) rear projection HDTV for about a year. The picture with standard cable was not good. Last fall, I tried digital cable (Cox) and the HD channels were excellent and the digital channels were quite a bit better than standard. But the majority of the...
