I have an 811 and 522 hooked up. The 522 is working fine,no problems.
The 811 is having trouble aquiring a signal for 110 west. 119 is locked on and I get some channels, but no HD channels and some channels are spotty.
Called Dish today, they ran me through a bunch of checks restarts etc but no help. Made an appointment for Thursday for a tech.

Any idea what may be causing this?? Connections are OK. It seems strange that the 522 is working fine, but the 811 is failing. Both boxes less than a month old.

Thanks!!!
 
Check signal strength on TPs 11 & 12 on 110 & 119 on both boxes.

Swap the feeds at the (unknown type) of LNB (or switch). Ya know, it helps to know what your configuration is. :no

Try it again. Did the problem move?
 
What sort of LNB do you have? There's a known product problem with dual tuner receivers/811 combo using DishPro+ twins. For some reason the 811 has problems with this configuration.
