So here is the situation, I recently got set up with directv in Florida where I have a summer home. I used my Florida address to get the account up and running and brought the dish and ird back with me to Canada. Now I had the dish (slimline 5) installed but we cannot receive any hd channels, its says x 721, but I have the choice ultimate package. So the dealer said it has to be a dish pointing problem. The installer came back and he is trying everything to get all 5 of the of the sats, but why are there two 99 sats and 2 103 sats? When I run the system set up it shows I have errors on tuner 1? I have the new h25-500 ird with the swm switch outside, 1 line from the dish going into the swm switch and that line going into the power supply behind the tv, and then 1 line into the IRD. What are we doing wrong! I understand I will not receive the local programing but I still should be able to receive ESPNHD and speedHD correct?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Also does it make a difference how we try and find the sat signal, i.e. everything hooked up and use the second output on the swm to the signal meter?
