My original 811 started showing a problem last week. I have had this unit since 12/03 so it is one of the 1st ones. I stated noticing that OTA analog channels were showing flashes of white squares. Also notice these on DSCHD channel. I am connected to the comp video output. However if I changed the display format from normal to stretch problem went away. Bizzare problem. I decided to call Dish figuring the problem resides in the 811. They sent me a replacement 811 2 days later. Problem is gone! Also this replacement 811 has the DishPro logo.
On another note, I did notice that before I upgraded the software on the replacement 811, point dish signal strength meter had a audio signal that allows a person to hear when have the best dish alignment. The new software version 268 does not do this. Also it would be nice if they had this same audio signal when a person is aiming the OTA antenna for digital signals.
