    Help! looking for advice

    There are several options here. You could probably get dish to upgrade your 811 to a 211 for a nominal fee which may or may not include the upgrade to either a dish 1000 or 1000 + if hd locals are offered in your area. My reccomendation would be to pay dish the 200 $ upgrade for a 622 which...

    How do I hook up another receiver?

    There is no easy or cheap way to do this. You will NOT be able to use a seperator to feed to seperate receivers. The way to do this is to change the dp+ lnbf on your 1000 dish to two dpdual lnbfs. You will then need to run all 3 lnbfs seperately into a dp switch either 34 or 44. If you use a 34...

    Dumb questions about Dish

    Why not give one of your local dish retailers a chance to to explain your questions and to do your install. I think you will be pleasantly suprised by the service and information you can get from a local person.

    I feel like I'm being scammed

    In order to receive the new voom and dish hd channels you must have a mpeg 4 compliant reciever i.e 211 or 622. You will also need a dish 1000 in order to pick up these channels from the 129 bird. If your in the select hd local areas you also would be eligible for a dish 1000+ set up. This...

    Help needed: Intermittent reception on certain Sat/Transponder

    Since dish network changed the compression from mpeg2 to mpeg 4 i have noticed this problem. It could possibly be a bad fitting(the metal connector on the end of a coaxial) or even a damaged line. However in 90% of the cases of this very same problem the problem is with the 119 lnbf. Hope...
