I have 2 receivers, a 501 and an upgraded 4900. I have Dish 500 with the AT 150 or 180, whatever they call it now.
I was using the 4900 when I got the 501. Since I have only one outlet, I put the 4900 away to use as a back-up if the 501 went out. I still pay the extra receiver fee on the 4900 so it is supposed to be activated. It has been unhooked 6-9 months.
I decided to check the 4900 last night. I unhooked the 501 and hooked to the 4900. I turned the 4900 on and it skips from channel 103 to 480 and goes to the cd channels then will get some of the 9000 range university channels.
A SW21 switch check shows the odd side polarity on 119 to be out.
Everything checks out properly on the 501 and it works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Herman
