Hi Folks,

The subject title pretty much says it all. I tried checking signal strength on a few 129 transponders and the 722 froze. It never made it to the actual signal meter. Instead it froze on the last menu page (where the last 1 in the 6-1-1 sequence is pressed). The small tv screen in the top right corner was still present and it continued to show live tv however I could not get the menu graphics to disappear. I had to reboot and all is fine now. It doesn't happen every single time but it does happen frequently.

Anyone ever have this issue? Is it a known bug? I can tell you that it seems to happen more when I'm trying to access signal strengths on weak satellites.
 
I noticed on the last one that I installed after it took its software update.
 
Mine has also done it three times but only when i pushed the 6 1 1 buttons to fast.When i do it slow it's fine.
 
My 622 has done this all the time with L449 and continues to do it with the latest software L511. It only works after I do a reboot.
