522 problem...

[riski]

...i had my 522 for about 4 months and I also own a 322. Last weekend we noticed that both TV's hooked up to the 522 have lost their locals. The 322 tv's both have the locals. Tried a check switch test and the guide download. Still no locals. Anyone have any suggestions? We have a superdish.

What were the results of the check switch? Also, have you tried doing a hard reset?

I lost locals on my 522 once, but they came back after the hard reset.

First: BOBA GO AWAY! USELESS SILLY TROLL!

Now, back to helping the friendly poster.

RUn your Check Switch and make sure it's results match the working receiver's configuration for available satellites and hardware types. I suspect you have a DP34 switch, so let's make sure the 522 is seeing that properly. Check that BOTH tuners are matched.

Step one is to move the 322 to the 522's location and vice versa to see if the problem stays with the box, or does it stay with the feed cables, etc.?

No locals?

Try the front panel reset...press and hold power on front of receiver for about 6 seconds...also make sure the superdish is highlighted on install summary before running the check switch.
