Question about DPP44 switch

I finally got my 622 activated and my dish upgraded to a dish1000. The installer didn't have a DPP44 swtch with him even though it was listed on the work order as "required hardware." I realize it was not actually required for the job and he simply used my existing DP34. So I complained in an e-mail to the ceo and got them to send me a 44! My question is, will this work with my existing LNB's or do I need DishProPlus LNB's to work with the new switch? I was hoping to just swap out the switch and get rid of the extra cable running to my 622.

I totally feel your pain. And in the case of "dual-tuner to one television"...THOSE I will modify in a heartbeat!! Too much B.S. involved wiring up a dual-tuner anyways. :mad:

Oh trust me, if a thread was started about "what was your most ridiculous chargeback?", you'll find more and more varied responses than the current thread "most ridiculous thing you've been told by a tech?"

We do have some play with work orders on basic stuff such as swapping lnbfs and inexpensive switches around to achieve a more desirable and less intrusive installation for the customer and for the tech but where there is no budging at is on the receivers, the dpp-44, and any items in short supply or under testing.

If I did that yesterday, I'd have a PO'd customer. They had a single 301, and were upgrading to a 625. WO clearly stated "dual tuner install to ONE TV". Customer wanted the tuner hooked up to the bedroom. The difference is that he gave me NO attitude when I explained I would have to mod the WO. First I verified that he actually had a TV for tuner 2, then I jumped through E*'s PIA hoops to get it modified.

Had the same thing happen last week, only the guy had ONE TV period. He had additional cable from the reciever to the other tv location, so I hooked that up to the TV2 out, explained to him what to do, and noted the WO (and account) that I did a "Dual Tuner install to ONE TV" and that the 625 is in single tuner mode. That way, I won't get gigged for an incomplete install or customer education SC if he can't figure out what to do with the wire coming up from the floor. Let's face it, some folks are just lazy, and want people to wait on them hand and foot.

Meanwhile, the techs in the company I work for have to cover each others behinds on a daily basis, because our company and dish are out to pay as little as possible, so if there is any BS reason to weasle out of paying a service call, they will do it. For example, they charge us back for bad seperators. WTF? Those come with the equipment, plus I asked at Dow, and they will not even think about selling us E* equipment unless we have E* dealer accounts, so I can't even buy a DPP seperator to provide during an install. That's bogus. It was hillarious when my LT finally got gigged for it, because he is the one who's been turning in SC's as bad seperators. I had told him they would do that the first time he mentioned it. I spoke from experience, but he still didn't believe me. I had to tell him "told ya so!" and a big Nelson (from the simpsons) HA HA!

Maybe I should start a thread about the rediculous chargebacks I've been slapped with. Oh, I micromanage my pay. I know exactly how much has been taken from me ($265 so far this year, $1492 last year + another $224 last year that is missing but was not explained to me). Then there is another $840from last year that went flat out unpaid. No appeals process, just abig FU. I'm saving it up. When they fire me, Judge wapner time!

I hear ya there. You connect only 1 Tv and 6 months later the customer decides to get a 2nd Tv and now its your fault you didn't do your Job to connect the 2nd set when the customer didn't have it at the time of install.

Being a retailer, I see this type of crap everyday. The best one is when there is existing wiring already in the customers home, and they feel that they are either entitled to a discount, or they want the installer to run all new cable.

First of all its a Free install, and second of all if you wanted the installer to run all new wire then you should have removed it before he came to your house.

As far as the DP44 Switch, I will agree with the other Techs here and say the customer is not entitled to it.

When a work order is written up, there is no way to tell what type of switch the customer already has on their home. When they put that a DP44 was a required switch, it was on there so the Tech would have one available so if for some reason it was needed to complete the install, the tech could complete the Job without having to re-schedule.

As far as im concerned the only thing DISH Network is obligated to do is to install the 622 and the Dish1000. Wether the installer wants to use a DP34 and run both lines to the 622 or install a DP44 Plus and run 1 line to the 622 is his Choice. He just has to make sure its installed properly and works before he leaves your home.

If you paid for a DP44 then your entitled to it. If you paid for your DP34 switch, then worse case scenario Dish should re-imburse you for your DP34. If your leasing everything and got it for FREE then by no means are you entitled to a DP44.

I'll give you an example, last week I did an upgrade for a customer who had a Dish500 looking at 119/110 and had a 2nd Dish looking at 61.5 connected to an SW64 with an 811 and a 2800.

The customer upgraded his 2800 to a 625.

Instead of re-wiring his whole house, we swapped his Sw64 switch for a DPP Twin and a Dishpro Dual for the 61.5 Dish.

I gave the customer $80 in LNB's in exchange for his used SW64 Switch, in addition I didn't have to charge him for a wall fish since his entire house was pre-wired for cable and had a single cable to each outlet.

Customer didn't pay for the Sw64 when I origionally installed the system, so as far as I can see I can use whatever switch configuration I want to complete the Job.

If I was the DNS contractor in this case, I certainly wouldn't have installed a DPP44 switch simply because DISH tells everyone that DPP44 switches are in VERY LIMITED SUPPLY for many months now and only used when needed. But having said that, the Executive Office supplied the customer with the DPP44 switch, not the local DNS office.

Only loser in this case is E* where they're now out whatever cost the DPP44 switch was. The DNS tech. most likely would not get in trouble since it's not always "do as the customer says". If the tech. deemed that a DPP44 switch was not necessary and modified the work order prior to closing it and the activation rep. agreed, then there's no blame to the tech. If that DPP44 switch was supposed to be installed under a special agreement, then the activation rep. would've been dealt the blame since they should've insisted that the DPP44 switch to be used prior to closing it.

This kind of thing happens all the time and unless if it involves a DPP44 switch, it's usually under the radar as other parts are relatively inexpensive. In the ideal sense, this was a waste of money to supply the customer with a DPP44 switch, but hey E* ain't dumb. They most likely factored in these scenarios when pricing their equipment. You just witnessed a whopping decrease in wholesale cost of 211/411/622 receivers so who knows how much these DPP44 switches are marked up.

One thing's for sure though. E*'s executive office goes to great lengths to satisfy their customers, even the savvy and entitled ones.

How things have changed

I was reading this article

thehill.com

Cable TV ‘cord-cutters’ became the majority in 2022

The steady decline of cable and broadcast television, and the rise of streaming services, reached a sort of inflection point over the past year. Last summer, for the first time, streaming ser…
thehill.com thehill.com

That said this-
Last summer, for the first time, streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime claimed the largest share of the television viewing audience, surpassing both cable and broadcast TV. Streaming captured 34.8 percent of July viewers, according to Nielsen data, compared to 34.4 percent for cable and 21.6 percent for broadcast.

And then, sometime in the second half of 2022, cord-cutters became the majority. The share of cable and satellite television subscribers dipped to 48 percent, according to a report from Samba TV, a television technology company.

Now I do not consider those with YTTV and the likes, Cord Cutters, but they still do not have Traditional Cable/Satellite delivered Live TV, so I decided to do the math.

There are, now, 129 Million Households in the United States.

In 2015, there were 100 Million Cable/Sat Subscribers , no streaming Live TV Service.

Today, there are 66 Million Live TV subscribers, including Cable, Satellite and Streaming.

Roughly, Streaming Live TV has 14 Million subs including all of them.

So that means, Cable/Satellite now has, roughly, 51 Million Households

So in just 8 years, lost 49% of their subscribers and by the end of this year, expected sub count to be, roughly, 45 million households.

That means a total loss of 55% since 2015 at the end of 2023.

But out of 129 Million households, 45 million will mean only 35% will get Cable/Satellite Delivered Live TV by the end of 2023.

Imagine what 2024 will be like.

That thier own stupidity ...

They make it hard to find the game when its on FOX 1 game, then FS1, then on Tru or some other little ity biyy channel that people rerely watch and can't find. (I don't know if FOX is TRU or not, but thats what I'm saying, they put games on obscure channels and expect people to easily find it and watch.

Green Dot on WJ4?

Wireless Joey 4. Yesterday, I noticed a little green dot on a small black field in the upper right hand corner of the screen, regardless of channel, recordings, etc. A restart got rid of it, but I am curious as to what It meant and what I did to get it there.

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....

Repair DX100 American Electrola Radio, AM FM SW?

I have a DX100 American Electrola Radio, AM FM SW. It is a receiver only, which quit working many years ago. Several years ago the seller had stated that capacitors would need replaced because they go bad.

In this particular xxx://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zUbXgNT8Oo they mentioned the backup battery being the problem.

Several years back when asking about having the capacitors replaced one former repairman said send it back to the factory, well there is not any. Another response several years ago from a person who repaired circuit boards for industry said they could repair it if they had a schematic, again I do not have.

This radio was built in Pittsburgh, PA out of as many American parts as they could find. Your thoughts on getting the radio to work?

I can e-mail you pdf copies of the the manuals and schematics. The tuning not working is probably the tuning encoder. I recently found one that fits my DXC-100 from Mouser Electronic Supply. I'll be glad to include the encoder part number used to repair my radio. My radio doesn't have the battery so may be a bit different than mine.

Deheza,

Thanks for your information and offer. My Radio is actually a DXC 100 as well, was a typo in the title. Am puzzled by yours not having the battery, since they only made two runs. While the schematics would be great, I believe by the amount of views it would be better to post all the information here.

I see where numerous people have posted pdf files, just not sure how they do it.

Sorry about the long response time, just was not sure how to handle it.

Thanks,

Respectively,

Gray Hair

If you change that diode, make sure you know what type it is, a regular rectifier, zener, whatever, don't just throw any old diode in. Try to read the number on it and look it up. Do you have a multimeter? A lot of the things in there can be easily checked with a meter.

Trying to run it off a clean 12 V source like a battery would be a good idea, like someone else suggested. In a couple of your pictures there's a 9v regulator [7809CT], and I think I saw a 5 V regulator [7805]. The 5v probably supplies the display and the 9v the radio circuitry. If you have a meter that would be a first place to check, check the three pins on each for a 12v input, a gnd, a 5v output on the 5v and a 9v output on the 9v. Bad solder connections is another good possibility.

That radio looks to be in nice shape inside. It doesn't look like anyone's worked it over, looks nice.

The back-up battery is probably just for a memory function, when you replace it make sure you use the same type, cadmium, lithium-ion, whatever it is, it should say on it what type it is and the voltage, or have a part# that can be looked up.

I did construct a manual from "azenithnut" , but his zip file is missing pages 16,17. My radio display only briefly lights up when powered on. the tuner and audio section appears to work fine. I have already replaced the back-up battery. I have the second generation radio. TIA

Can you send the serial-number label and photos of the tuner board, that should help distinguish its circuit revision; collector records say serials marked OB were the second production run. Use a heat gun or hair dryer to find bad caps if it works for A FEW SECONDS ITS A BAD CAP, THAN ONLY HEAT HALF OF THE RADIO

Just did the update check manually about an hour ago with Hopper 3 on H713 and Hopper Plus on P15403.
Noticed something new when I clicked on the Update Software, it presented a pop-up as follows:
"Update software 1573
Update later Update now Cancel" with those three buttons which did not exist before.

After updating the H715 - I guess there must be major bugs as both H709 and H714 were skipped.

So here are the issue(s):

Issue #1
It did fix the problem with H713 which was:
"One of the problems I am seeing is that the Available Joey Software section no longer is showing the Android TV versions even after a manual software reset twice and the nightly reboot. Until it does, nether Technician Android TV download and Hopper Plus is able to check, download and update the Android TV software."

This was a major problem with H703.

H710 removed that dependency so H711 and H712 were working without that dependency but H713 brought it back which is fixed in H715 as no P versions or Android TV versions are shown in the Available Joey Software on the main Diagnostics screen.
However, with that said, the TECHNICIAN SETTINGS, Download ATV (Android TV) Files is not working correctly as the Download ATV Files shows:
"Download ATV Files 3000
Download in progress. This operation will be
complete when the files are downloaded

Joey 4 : P554- Failed
Joey 4 : P55403- Failed
Wireless Joey 4 : P654- Failed
Wireless Joey 4 : P65403- Complete
HopperPlus : P154- Complete
HopperPlus : P15403- Failed

OK"
From what I can tell, each of them goes through the Downloading followed by the Processing stages first before it goes into the Failed or Complete stage. It seemed to be going in a loop earlier as it will start downloading from the first item being the Joey 4 each time before it eventually stopped. This is the first time ever since 2023 that I had ever seen it Failed.

With that said, the dependency appears to still be required for the Hopper Plus to check, download and update the Android TV software as it says Failed, No Target when going to "Device Preferences", About, "Software Update"

Issue #2
Still cannot cast to Hopper 3 with Hopper Plus(Software P15317) with the Hopper Plus "Google Chromecast Built-In" feature" as it shows up as a casting device when the Hopper Plus is online and disappears when the Hopper 3 and Hopper Plus does it's nightly reboots but times out when one tries to cast to it and always shows up as Not available in the Google Home app on Android phone. No one else anywhere on the internet had confirmed whether it is working for them or not. Per brittanygarden in DM on October 16, 2026:
"We've been working with Google on this. We have a fix on the Google side projected for Q4. I know we're in Q4 now, but I will try to get a narrowed down timeline for you."

I have not been updated to 715 yet. I am on a QE "Beta" or Test version that did fix the audio issue. The last communication I had with the team mentioned that the full release of that fix was likely in December.
It would be nice to know if 715 does solve that issue of no audio when Dolby is ON, during 4K HDR events.

The game time was just a product of so many top 25 matchups. I think they said it was the most in one day since the 1930s.

Not everyone can play at night and get a tv slot.

Of course Lane is gonna complain. It's what he does.

Could. Yes.

But you know as well as I that they are not going A: put all of their prime matchups on at the same time. And B: take their main games off of the main channels.


You had bama vs lsu, and Georgia vs Ole Miss to choose from.

Considering Georgia had beaten Bama and Ole Miss had beaten LSU, I can see that why they chose that game for the night matchup (without the benefit of hindsight as to how the game's Saturday would play out).

You also had Tennessee vs Kentucky to fit in the mix.


Someone had to be at 2:30. Which imo is honestly my preferred slot for bama games no matter who they are playing or where.


None of them was going to be a streaming only game, and none where going on an "alternate" channel.

Of course ... but they Could.

Did you realize how early that Utah vs BYU game was Saturday ... I believe it was 12 Noon EST, they are in Mountain time zone, which means they started thier game a 10 AM.

Yes. I even said so. But for reasons I gave, they won't. Wouldn't make sense for them too and they would lose money. A lot of these people that watch one of these games, watch more than one.

They want those eyeballs on as many games as possible. It just makes financial sense.
