They're all starting to get old at this point, I'd personally use whichever one the receiver doesn't flag for drift. :oldlaugh

Whichever Joey model is at software J595... In all seriousness though, I typo'd previous post. My Joey's are J3's... the J4 (the android powered one) is the one I had in mind that I had not checked for the issue on.

H+ is the only box I've seen the issue on… have not touched a J5 or J4 yet though.

Dish switched to a proprietary modulation a while back on all transponders that I know of, so if your meter isn’t made for it, you’ll never get a lock on the meter, but at least you can get the signal strength.

This would be nice. Looks like the H+ just gets it right on most channels, but there are a few in which it would still come in handy.

Yes, you’ll need a node though.

Bro, Comcast made Primestar, they competed with Dish directly.

You would need an HDMI splitter, ATSC modulator/encoder (such as the MUL-HDENC-C-100), attenuator pads, and some coax to go to the OTA input port on your 722. Doable, but expensive and totally not worth it. USB won’t be involved.

This happens at my mom's house a lot because her internet connection drops and the HWS doesn't like it (she refuses to allow her bad cable internet drop to be replaced...) Restoring the streaming channels without waiting a long time or doing a reboot is as simple as going to the tech settings...

The DPH42 switch should be used with DP or DPP LNBFs, not DPH, it’s on page 5 of the DPH42 manual. Personally I’d ditch the multi switch and just use the hybrid duo hub, this will be a simpler setup because you won’t need the power inserter anymore, and there’s never a need for 2 wing dishes...

my thoughts exactly... Ideally the signal should be around 0 dBmV by the time it hits the OTA tuner's coax input... Looks like the OTA tuner on my hopper 2 starts acting up when the signal consistently exceeds +23 dBmV, which is a helluva lot of signal... The lowest signal I reliably pull in on...

Would be useful to know which channels are missing so we can have an idea of which sat and transponder they're on... are they showing up in the guide at all? if so which on screen message do you get when you try to switch to them?

And 148. Are both the original SuperDISH FSS slots (105 and 122) still active? Or are they down to one yet?

Assuming you were trying to upgrade to a leased Joey 4? If you had a purchased one, I doubt the CSRs would care and would simply activate it.

There are still loads of them around here in ENC in Mediacom Cable (former TCI Communications) territory; apparently they sold PrimeStar services to areas that were going to take them a long time to build out their cable plant on... Guess the plan worked.

Which part of NC are you from? I've got some Dish and PrimeStar equipment laying around that might interest you.

Not terribly related, but today when running a check switch today after reaiming my former 118.7 dish over to 72.7, I was amused when my Hopper2 correctly identified that I totally misaimed and hit the 82 satellite instead… 😂

DPP44 and a solo node should do what you want.

I noticed that my TP20 is no longer in the green, even when not having the issue, in fact, it's usually firmly at 11 (yellow) when not having the issue... Does anyone know typical signal strength for this transponder?

Hi, is there a known outage of GMA channels on 118.7°W TP20? Channels 9968, 9969, 9971, and 9972 all go out at once, usually with either partial signal loss or complete signal loss screen. But the few other channels on that satellite (that are on free preview) consistently work fine (such as...

I didn't see any mentions of it in the thread (or in the search), but my local channel on PSIP 7.3 (RF 32, WITN-TV, Washington, NC) only shows "Digital Service" in the EPG. They recently changed their 7.3 channel to carry MeTV full time.
