Wow! Sounds like a mess. The power issue is strange...does it only happen on the bank of mods for channels 36-49? Or does the power go out in the whole room? Are you using a meter to balance the system or just going off of picture quality? Given the power and channel issue, make sure the system...

Fixed soon? I noticed this issue almost a year ago when I cancelled hbo...didn't have much recorded and rarely watch tv from the joey location so it wasn't too big of a deal to me. I figured they would have fixed it by now.

Neither have I, but only on the hopper. From a joey location I get an error about not being subscribed.

The problem I have seen since the last update is that if one tuner is showing the 4 locals, then another tuner is changed to a local, the second tuner may show individually that it is on a local and it becomes difficult to get off of the local. Instead of the ptat-like tuner showing multiple...

Anyone else with magnavox tv's have the issue? OP has magnavox, I had a cust yesterday with 3 of them all having audio dropouts on hdmi.

That's what I'm looking for, thanks. I would like to meet whover's bright idea that particular issue was...it's not the least bit helpful, just another thing to confuse existing subs.

Is there an easy way to get to a rsn instead of using the guide? 429 no longer goes to csn. It goes to 439, btn. The guide now shows all rsn's as subchannels of 412.

Yeah, ready? Unplug the joey from power. Unplug cable from joey. Plug joey into power. When it boots, put in standby (hit power button). Unplug from power. Connect coax cable. Plug into power. Wait for it to boot back up, it should boot back into standby mode. Unplug from power. Plug into...

How many joeys are linked to that hopper and what method are you using for ip on it?

I have seen the issue before where ip connection causes 722's to reboot, and there is a lengthy discussion about the issue on dishsupport.com.

I doubt you can pick between charter or Comcast, only one will have service at your house. Fwiw, i just signed up for Comcast internet, its sweet. I tried through ATT, but it was two weeks out. Comcast had me up and running the same day, but only because I did a self install with a modem I had...

None of the five I've put in came in at 12, they all tested about 8 down, 2 up. Being so new I can't believe it's due to network congestion, so not sure what's up, could be the site I use to test. Regardless, web pages load amazingly fast, and video plays smooth.

Here's a speed test from a few days ago, I've done 5, all test about the same. It's awesome, I no longer hang my head in shame when showing a custy how fast it is!

I had a cust with 2 Sony bravias, kdl-50's I think, did the same thing. We ended up finally fixing the issue by getting a software update from Sony for the tv's! Only an issue through hdmi, sound from composites was ok.

So its not an actual dishnetwork DP lnb, its a generic? I could be wrong, but I don't think those lnbs actually are considered DP, think its actually legacy form. When you switch test a dp single it would say "129 All". A legacy single shows as "129 odd, 129 even". Which way was it...

Have you checked for drift on those lnbs? If they are older than a few years look into it. Drift will cause a low signal especially on even transponders. Hook it up to your reciever, check switch, then go to system info screen. If there is drift it should show an error in the top left...

Claude, are you saying caller id works over a dishcomm device but not between two recievers? I'm pretty sure I had a 722 connected to phone via dishcomm a few days ago and id worked...

Fwiw, I'm not a big fan of this app. It seems very dependent on the accuracy of the compass in the phone. When I first got it I was excited, but over time I have noticed it is off by 5 or more degrees. Most of my fellow installer feel the same. I have put in jobs the app said wouldn't work...

ok, just tried it. 2 dp duals on 500 dish, one line off of each, each line to a high freq new holland splitter, then one line from each splitter to a 33 switch so as to feed 119 and 110 into each. both 33 switches appear to be working fine, one dual tuner running off of each. My sat buddy...

Has anyone ever tried to set up two strings of switches by just splitting the line from the duals? By this I mean 3 duals with one line each, each line split to go to 2 banks of switches. I am aware of the alternatives, just wondering if this would work.

there can be electrical interference, I just don't believe it is related to what he is describing. Electrical interference can cause things like wavy lines washing through a screen when a tv is hooked up to an analog signal, for instance when the tv is on ch. 3 and hooked to a sd box. Actually...

It has nothing to do with it. With a digital picture such as this you will either have a picture, or a screen that says searching for signal. There is a very narrow margin where you have just enough signal to almost get a picture but it shows up as a bunch of tiles on the screen. This is most...

You are sure there is nothing in the way of 119? 119 comes in at an angle off to the right if you looking from behind the dish, it's a pretty good angle too. If it was warpage of the dish, i think it would be obvious, as it's such a big dish. a warped reflector use to affect the 105, but i...

No kidding, always stuck in the middle of these things! (Not that i don't feel bad for the misinformed customer as well!)

Call applied instruments, the number is on the back of the meter. They are extremely helpful. Sometimes if the update gets interrupted or whatever, the meter is shot and has to be reloaded at the factory. I assume you have tried to connect it and update it again?
