Can't wait to hear the explanation on this one.. Oh yea, this is Dish.. They won't even admit they had a problem. They will blame it on the installer.

The astronauts did it?

 

[GeorgeLV]

The big question is.. WHAT HAPPENED?

Hopefully nothing that caused Dish a permanent partial loss of capacity. If they blew enough solar array strings or transponder tube their efforts to expand HD could be coming to a screeching halt for a while.

 

[pbarca]

spoke with dish said they were having up-link problem should be back in a few hours

I was watching the Yankees game and lost the signal for 10 minutes. I missed Jorge Posada's hr. Everything is fine now.

By the way, E*'s web site seems to be either down or flooded with users because I can't get in...

I just saw this thread and am glad that it wasn't my receiver on the fritz.

My wife switched over to the external drive for some Aliens in HD and I'm going to take a nap. Hopefully all will be well when I wake up. I'm thankful for this site since I was afraid it was on my end.

Iam down again: 110,119 and 129!!! Anybody else lose it a second time?

 

[Darrell S]

all is well, could've been E* introducing us all to the *new and improved* signal strength meter!

The new meter sucks. They downloaded it to my 625 this week.

This happened to me while I was doing an Install today...but that sucks, all of a sudden a 622 and 2 211's lost signal. I just just activated it when it happened. Try explaining that one to the customer, I don't think that she wanted to believe me.

lost every bird just a few moments ago. They just came back.

Dammit! I just spent 2 hours trouble shooting my receiver!

I have been loosing the 110,119 and 129 on my 211 and the 110/119 on my 311 i called dish they made me run threw abunch of options and got my 211 working but my 311 crapped out right after i hung up the phone? So i have to call now because my 311 is loosing signals and the 211 is up and running. This has been running fine for almost 2 years now i had the 311 and the 211 almost 1 year?

It was Dish problem, not your receivers or your setup.

It was Dish problem, not your receivers or your setup.

Dish has me so well trained (Installers fault, YOUR FAULT!) that I was actually out on a ladder checking connections and evaluating all the wiring from the dish to my receiver......

I had pretty much come to the conclusion it was time to re-peak my dish or a rat had chewed through my RG-6!

after this incident, my 622 is acting wacky. It keeps on rebooting itself and I can't pick up some of the hd channels like espn2.
