    I agree, it takes WAY to long.

    Losing video on Samsung TV

    I thought you had eliminated the receiver from the equation at some point during the troubleshooting?

    Try the Funai codes, they make Sylvania televisions.

    D* just called me telling me my signal was low

    Does this require the phone line to be hooked up? Bill

    D* just called me telling me my signal was low

    Sounds super fishy to me. Is there even a way for them to read a local signal from their end? Bill

    How much do providers pay for PPV events?

    I completely agree although I would have no problem paying the extra $10 IF I was able to receive the SD feed on my older receivers too. That added to the fact that sometimes the audio in the HD feed can go out of sync I would love to have the SD to fall back on as sync issues bother the heck...

    URGENT: I NEED HELP! Coax cable is ruined!

    Nothing is more satisfying then being able to do your own F-Type/Composite/CAT cables. Best money I ever spent was buying the tools to do my own cables. A little money up front will save you a lot in the future. I now actually look forward to rearranging and doing cable work as well as...

    New install this Saturday...what to expect?

    Keep an eye on your credit card that is attached to the account. When I left Dish a few years ago they wanted the receivers AND LNB back and tried to charge me saying I didn't return them. I keep copies of EVERYTHING especially shipping numbers. I tracked it and told them that the package was...

    Losing video on Samsung TV

    You mention that the Onkyo is hooked to the TV via HDMI but that only one D* receiver is hooked to the Onkyo this way while the other is hooked to the Onkyo via component cables. Is the problem present on both D* receivers or is it possibly just having an issue with one of them. Maybe the...

    Have you tried bypassing the Onkyo and running the receivers directly to the TV? Bill

    Searching for signal on satellite in 2 (771)

    http://www.satelliteguys.us/directv-technical-discussions/158965-strange-problem-hr20-100-a.html The reason I ask is that is a lot like the problem I was having with my HR20. It was finally resolved by having the box replaced. Bill

    Searching for signal on satellite in 2 (771)

    For your sake I hope it continues to work. Which receiver are you using? Bill

    HD Football

    Pretty sure adding ANY new receivers, even owned ones, will add 24 months onto the contract. Bill

    D*TV 1080p Update

    Try hooking it straight to the TV and resetting it and see if the problem persists. Bill

    Installation Begins

    I don't really have a problem with refurbed, leased equipment. I see them more as being "tested" However if you want a specific receiver you are better off just buying it on your own from either a local retailer or online and then adding it to your account. At this point I am more a hands...

    Installation Begins

    Hopefully all goes well and is up and running shortly. I also hope for the installer that the weather is at least nice where ever you are located :-) I had a service call recently on a HR20-100 whose 2nd tuner was nearing the end of it's life cycle...

    ice storm

    I am also in Cincy, what area are you in? The weather has been super here, lol. Lucky for me just like your case I have had no issues with my signal but my dish is on a pole next to the house just in case. When my mother made the upgrade to the slimline we mounted it in the back yard just...

    DVR recorder programs without sat signal?

    How exactly is he "gaming" the system? Nothing wrong with finishing a contract and going where the deals are, especially given how much monthly service CAN run. I agree with the OP but I understand that companies often give better deals to new customers to get them in the contract. Then they...
