522 UHF remotes

I'm getting a 522 receiver next tuesday. I would like both remotes to be able to do UHF.

I have a friend that has a 522 and does really need the Remote #2. Is there any way I can get a remote #2 switched to do UHF for Tuner #1 on the 522 receiver.

I was at his house, and I changed the remote code of Remote #2 to the remote addess of Tuner #1, then enabled the UHF remote in the receiver and then switched the Key at the bottom of the remote #2 to #1 and The receiver would NOT recognize the UHF signal from the remote.

Is their a special key for the bottom of the remote for enabling Tuner #1's UHF mode?

Basically I want to know how to change an extra remote to be able to control Tuner #1 as a UHF remote.

Thanks,
John

I agree with you there maximum. All they would have to do is add another button for tuner 2 in order for those buttons to only do functions for the second tuner.

AJ,

Is there any way to control TV2 via IR? I'm setting up a whole home audio system and would like to be able to allow the customer to listen to satellite music from either TV1 or TV2. Ideally they would be able to push either SAT1 or SAT2 on the keypad and be able to change channels up and down. The whole home music controller (SpeakerCraft MZC66) supports IR commands only.

Thanks,
Doug

I've complained about this also because I have the same problem; I need to be able to control TV2 using my Niles music system . There are other situations where you need to control both tuners using IR, mostly in high-end installations . It makes no sense (of course) and Dish will be losing out on just the kinds of customers that they love to have; those with high-end systems who also tend to subscribe to their high-end programming packages.

AJF,

I decided to allow the user to select TV2 on the keypad but they will have to use the UHF remote to change stations.

But it would be so much easier if they just enabled TV2 to be controlled by IR so the keypads could control it, right ? What if someone wanted to replace the Dish remote with a programmable remote ? Dish makes no sense sometimes .

TV2 is usually located in a different room from the 522/322 therefor UHF is the option used so that the remote will work from the TV2 location. That said, yes they should do an uprade to the software to allow IR for TV2 just like they added UHF for TV1.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Dish Hopper and Dish Hopper Plus No Alexa in settings

I have Dish Hopper and Hopper Plus and also have Alexa Echo. I link the Alex skill to Dish and it asks me to enter the pairing code shown on the TV. I go into Dish Settings and there is no Alexa shown. Not sure what to do.

I stand up from my chair with my glass in one hand and my plate in the other, when a story I really want to hear comes on the TV. So I say, "Alexa, pause DISH", and it waits for me to return from the kitchen, at which time I say, "Alexa, resume DISH".

Or maybe, when I return with a full glass in one hand and a new plate in the other, I realize I forgot to pause to hear this good story from its start. So I say, "Alexa, skip DISH backwards 3 minutes", and I still get to catch the whole story.

I use this every day. Or until I acquire a third hand.
