My system is a Dish 500 with 322 receiver. Is it true that both coax out on 322 are mono audio? My TV in the bed room is connected to TV2 through coax Out. I am a little upset that there is no stereo sound. Anyway to get around that?

They're both mono I believe. The only way around it is to use the TV2 composite out. You could either run composite to that room or attempt wireless video senders.
Andrew,
Thanks for the confirmation. Wireless Video/Audio is definitely an option. However, I read that the 2.4 GHz models got interference from cordless phones, etc. So I would need to look for models with a higher freq. if I go this route.

Yes...they work sometimes. I've used the 2.4 ghz ones from Radio Shack before and had them work...and then I've tried to use them and have had them not work.
I'm not sure what other frequencies are available, but I'm sure someone makes different ones.

According to this http://www.dishnetwork.com/downloads/pdf/product_brochures/dish_322.pdf the RF outputs are indeed mono. I was surprised, thought all the dual output receivers had stereo for TV2 RF.
I do know for a fact that TV2 RF on the 522 and 625, and both TV1 RF and TV2 RF on the ViP DVRs are MTS Stereo. Yet another reason to upgrade to a DVR.

I'm surprised too. I was just about to post that TV2 is stereo but after checking that same PDF, it's not.
Thanks, guys. First I didn't believe my ears that after I read the user manual carefully, I felt cheated. I don't know if I would have gone for the DVR or the HD though as they cost extra monthly. I have a descent DVD recorder (Pioneer). That's how I record the programs for later watch. It's quite inconvient though, as I have to program the receiver and then the recorder.
i got a dvr before it was called a pvr, it was called a dishplayer. and i've been addicted ever since, can't enjoy tv without one.
