622 vs 722

[papalittle]

I pulled an install off the internet from dish and I am a bit confused. The order says a 622 and a 500 pointed at 110,119 and a wing at the 61.5. Can I use a 722 and a 1000.4 dish instead? or a 622 and a 1000.4? there is 1 HD local channel on the 61.5. The customer does not want 2 dishes on their house.

Anyone?

I'm not a Dish pro, but from what I've read you just need the purple G3 card in a 722 and all of the EA sats on a 1000.4. Purple cards are necessary for SD, though not HD locals. Also, assuming that DMA's locals are uplinked in SD if not in HD on 61.5, since they won't be available on 110, or wherever they were before.

My DMA is on 77w in HD and all not in HD are in SD there, replicated on 110 as well.

G3 card could be inside - check threads where described a check for G3 support. Search for "DNASP" keyword.
