Dish 322 uhf remote doesn't even go 10 feet.

I have a dish 322 and I can't seem to get the remote to go even 10 feet line of sight. It seems to be getting worse but never really worked right. Today I tried to change the frequency but I couldn't get that to work either. The remote was happy to change to frequency 2 but the receiver wouldn't pick up the change.

At this point I'm thinking the radio in the receiver has failed, but before I spend money on another receiver I thought I would ask the forum if anyone else has had this problem and if a new box resolved it. Another 322 isn't that expensive, but I would rather not drop the $100 unless I know it will fix the issue.

Thanks,
schu

Do you have two 322 receivers running four tvs?

I only have one..... I have a spare 311 and can get another but then I don't have the ability to go anywhere in the house with the remote. Sounds like I'm stuck.

If possible, take your receiver and remote to a nearby dealer and have him check it out for you. Probably do it for free.

Failing getting the #322 to work, the #311 remotes will accept a stick on the end IR to UHF adapter which transmits a UHF signal back to its own receiver and puts out a line of site IR signal to the #311 receiver. Don't cost much.

On the TV1 remote press the 'sys info" button....Note the remote address for TV2....If the address is not "1"....Change the remote adress on the TV2remote to the number that appears on the screen..
Before you do this make sure the antenna is connected to the back of the receiver..
Follow these steps....
1. press and hold the "SAT" button until all other buttons light up.
2. choose the number that matches the TV2 remote address number on the sys info screen, press the # key..
3. the SAT button will flash
4. press the record button on the remote
Your remote address now will match the number on the sys info screen.
your remote if functioning properly will now be ready to go..
If it does not work make sure the batteries are fresh..
Anothe little trick..Remove the batteries form the remote for a few minutes then replace them.....
let us know how you make out...

Honestly, I would rather see an expanded bracketed playoff system than the current Conference Championship Game + playoff model we're using right now. The Conference Championships essentially allow two teams to beat up on each other, and then both typically are going to end up in the playoffs anyway unless it is one of the weaker or smaller conferences. Let them play it out on the field against others.

Until the Big Ten changed thier alignment, (a couple years ago) ... it was not like that at all, the East side won most years the west side represented the Big Ten, but they may have been the team with the 4th best record ...
They finally changed that, to a single conference ... but yes, in most cases, both teams will get in ... now, its a certain both will get in ...

The biggest issue with the Conference Now is the Number of TEAMS .... WAY to Many.
It would take 2-3 YEARS to do a round robin where everyone would play one another ... How do you know how good a team is when teams don't play the same teams ?

I like the move to campus sites for the early games. That adds a fun new dimension for fans, and cuts down on some of the travel expenses that would come with having to follow a team all the way through the playoffs at neutral sites.

That'd be more than the FA Cup! Over 700 teams. It is also the most glorious tournament in the world.

Maybe it is time to get rid of the College Football season and just go to a tournament. 128 teams, fill in the bottom end with the lower division. Random draw (except the top 10 teams are in one bucket to draw from in the first and second rounds to avoid OSU v Alabama in the first round), go from 128 to 8. 4 games. Then the 8 remaining teams play 7 games against each other. Then the top two play for the title.

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....

Finally! Some big movement in California diesel pricing (and no, there is no such beastie as a diesel "winter formula").

Crude (combined pricing) is around $90/barrel now, so prices should have, at least, fallen in step with the crude futures.

Just curious here.....then why is diesel so much higher out there than it is elsewhere. Bobby just posted $7.59/gal, locally it is $5.59.....that's two bucks difference. :eeek

California has a ~93¢ per gallon consumer tax rate on automotive diesel, along with significantly higher refinement standards.

The fact that consumers can only buy some new full-sized truck models and a couple of vans with diesel power makes the fuel an odd duck in refinery priorities.
