I wish someone could give me some insight. After a few days off, I looked at the system again. Now, there was absolutely no download of anything. The only sat the system could lock on to was 77. I tried everything to tune it but could not get the signal more than 25. When I tried to...

We have done this too in the past. No assistance or improvement in the situation. Actually, the only way I discovered disconnecting the feed works is that I have two feeds comming back to the house from the old dish system. Thinking one would be better than the other, I found switching made a...

Here is some more information. I worked on re-peaking the dish today. I used a Radio Shack satellite finder while on the phone with an observer watching the bars on the receiver. I made several adjustments but noticed moving the dish Westward is still has not peaked 77 yet. I made a pretty...

I will try to repeak dish. Is there any preference as to which of the three I should concentrate on? What is the matrix and a long check switch all about? Thanks.

Hi, new to forum and Dish. New installation. VIP222K receiver. The ONLY way to get the unit to function after nightly "update" is to DISCONNECT the coax momentarily from the receiver, then it finds the satellites and downloads the guide. I can't imagine what is going on. I have checked and...

Voltage measured to ensure continuity to dish. Upon further inspection, I don't think dish was hit, but blown off position by strong winds. I say this because the bolts holding the dish in place required tightening. I went to local Radio Shack, picked up a satellite finder, easily found the...

I pulled all the wires and have varying 3 to 5 volts appearing at the LNB, but 18.5 at the input to the dish wiring. All the connectors are heavily laden with silicone sealant and I suspect ONE problem is insufficient voltage to the dish. Can anyone tell me what voltage the LNB requires for...

Thanks for the answers to my problem. I looked at the installation again. I DO NOT see any obvious injury to the dish, marks, bending, etc. I can put a level on the mount to be sure it is straight plumb. I remeasured to be sure I have voltage going into the dish, I do. I am going to remove...

Hi, new here. This is my setup. Big dish taken down, small dish put on post, about 200ft to house (NEVER any signal or picture problems with big dish), used old ribbon cable underground, lightning protection outside house and inside, box had problems from day 1 indicated by necessity of...
