Brand new 311

I think I have a 510 . I do have a 622 922 and a hopper sitting in my basement. Several switches . I remember the days of buying all of the newest satellite equipment as soon as it came out. I still have my original dish 500 self install kit with the plastic compass. I hooked up the dish so many times I can walk out and point it blindfolded. I think I have a built in compass. If they switch back to 110 and 119 it will be time to break out the old compass and look for signals between the trees .
This may be a weird question but are you able to ship me a switch?

Just make sure you use a dp lnb if you're using a Non legacy reciever
 
Brand new out of the box means it would be able to take a software upgrade potentially from a different satellite - as in, is Bell Canada still using those or did they go all MPEG-4 too?
My experience: I bought a Bell 4100 thinking I could put it on Dish satellites and it would update and work like a 111 with extra outputs besides the RF. That never happened. :(

Here's a blast from the past.

I was cleaning out office (many years of clutter) and found a brand new in box, never been opened, never been used Dish Network 311 Receiver (2003 vintage)! I have no idea why I have this thing!?!? I can only guess that Dish sent to me to replace one of my old 501s that started getting sick, and never charged me for it or never requested it's return. I've been through three house moves since 2003 and somehow it's followed me through all of them (honest, I'm not a hoarder!).

Of course it's a boat anchor now and only valuable now as either a museum piece or just an electronic recycle item. I guess now I'm going to have to find something else to hold that stack of paper down it was sitting on.
I know this post is almost a year old but I have a 322 I got off eBay and they actually activated it over the phone, didn't tell them the model otherwise that would probably have failed my plan, I use it for XM channels since that's all it can do

And how much a month is it costing you to get those XM channels? And BTW, they had to ask for your receiver ID to activate it so they know exactly what the model number is.
