This is sad. I just installed my own 1000.2 dish a couple of weeks ago and had it working with my 625 just fine. But when I hooked my my new 722 yesterday, I moved the 625 to the second port on the DPP44 to have it around until the 722 had been activated. For the heck of it, I ran the system info (menu 6-1-3) and it took longer than normal. Then the dreaded "Check Details" message, and it reports that the 129 LNB has -6 drift.
So I got the 722 activated today, and once everything was up and running I did the same thing to see if it was consistent. Sure enough, same message.
The 1000.2 was brand-new out of the box from an Ebay dealer, so I have no recourse except to spring for another LNB. Since I've got a wing dish looking at 61.5, I really don't need 129 for national HD, which is all the HD I can get from E*. But really, two weeks and a bad LNB? The old SuperDish at least went four or five years before one crapped out. Heck, it may be time to drag out the old Dish 500 which has a brand-new DP twin on it.
