Hello all, thanks in advance for any help that may be provided!!!
Im attempting to configure a Dish setup at my second residence on the down low.........lol.
The house had a Turbo HD dish on the roof already but my receiver from my primary residence was a 512 DVR. I purchased a 500 dish off ebay and have been attempting to set it up to no avail all morning. Every setup I try leaves me with no connection to the satelite at all when I run a check switch. My last attempt involved hooking the 512 directly to the 500 on the roof, sat in 1 to the 119 side of the dish, no switches or anything and it still doesnt even show up in check switch.
So heres question number 1, if the receiver is good(confirmed) shouldn't the dish, if good(ebay, unconfirmed), show up in check switch no matter if its picking up a bird or not??????
