I replaced the Hitachi with a Western Digital EHD that was previously used with a ViP211 receiver and everything worked fine! I then tried the Hitachi with the ViP211 and it worked fine also! I guess certain EHDs don't work with all ViP receivers.

I can't get a Hitachi Touro Desk 2TB external HDD to format for a ViP612. When I enter Menu--> Multimedia--> My Media--> Manage Device it asks me to format the attached USB device. When I press "yes" it proceeds to format the drive and when finished returns me to the last channel I was on. There...

I want to distribute output from a modulator (UHF channels) though the DPP44 switch to my 4 satellite receivers. Can I use the 4th input port? Would I use a Holland DPD2 diplexer? The output from a 1000.4WA dish is also going into the DPP44 switch.

I don't get it. I currently get Detroit East feeds on channels 284 thru 288 as well as the Buffalo/Rochester feeds. If they drop the latter what do they replace them with for me?

My favorites: Numbers Shark

Yeah, right; and CEO's should stop getting $53 million Xmas bonuses and give concessions to their hard-working employees now working for $12 per hour! :)

What channel on E*?

I too have all legacy LNBFs and switches, and like you, I cascade the SW64 with a SW21 to get 110W, 119W, 129W, and 148W to an 811 receiver. It seems to me that if I wanted to add, say, the 61.5W satellite all I would have to do is replace the SW21 with a SW31 switch ( Maxx Electronics Corp. ...

Thanks a lot for your help. I think I'm going to call Dish Network, change my order and get a ViP211 instead of a ViP222.

Why is it that I don't have a problem if I direct swap the 811 with a ViP211 instead of the ViP222?

What if I fed the same input into the two tuner inputs on the ViP222 using a splitter?

I'm still confused. What are these "two cable runs" connecting to - from where to where?

That's what I thought. Thanks a lot.

I don't understand. The only receiver that I am replacing is the 811. The other 3 receivers (1-JVC301, 2-EchoStar2300) will remain. Are you thinking of the second tuner in the ViP222? I will not be using this tuner, at least not for now. It's too much trouble running a cable through the walls.

I am currently feeding an 811 HDTV receiver and 3 other Legacy receivers via SW64/SW21 switches from individual legacy LNBFs mounted on a WaveFrontier T90 toroidal dish. Doing a signal check shows I am receiving signals from 110W, 119W, 129W, and 148W. I recently purchased my first HDTV set, a...

I recently bought a Samsung HL-T6189S DLP HDTV. I use a Wavefrontier Toroidal T90 dish and two single LNBF dishes to pick up signals from 4 DishNet satellites - 110W, 119W, 129W, and 148W as well as signals from StarChoice satellites 107.3W,111.1W and DirecTV 101W. I use legacy switches SW64 and...

I will be taking delivery of my new Samsung HL-T6189S DLP HDTV any day now. Where can I get good quality DVI/HDMI and HDMI/HDMI cables for a reasonable price to connect my components (Motorola DSR505, DishNet 811,DirecTV H20)?

I recently switched from Bell ExpressVu to Star Choice, using a Motorola DSR 505 receiver. I was checking signal strength and noticed that on channel 293 the signal strength (as measured in the system status screen as the Ecb/No) was 6.9db while on channel 298 it was 7.9db. What is odd about...

Finally, success! I got authorized for programming today and everything seems to be working. I'm receiving channels from both Anik F1 and F2. The HD channels have a black band on top, bottom, and both sides. Changing Video Settings didn't fix this. I guess it's because I'm still using a SD TV ...

I think I found the problem. I swapped the Xtreme II I had been using for 107.3W with an extra LNBF (a Zinwell) that I had. Now on the "Satellite Signal 1" screen I get the following: EMM Provider ID: 0 Satellite Name: A4 Signal Level Number: 56 Tomorrow I'll try tweeking this.

I disconnected the 111.1W LNBF and the SW22 switch. I'm going directly from the 107.3W to the DSR505. When I power up the receiver it says "Acqiring satellite signal. Please wait." I'm still waiting. Nothing is happening.

I hooked up the DSR505, 2-LNBFs, and the SW22. I turned on the receiver and I get a "Installation Settings"--->"Tune Satellite Signal 1" .The screen is now as follows: EMM Provider ID: 0 Satellite Name: A4 Signal Level Number: 62 Adjusting the skew and slide bar position for the...
