Hello everyone,
I have read multiple posts regarding the picture quality on TV2 output.
To rule out any possibility of long cable runs, faulty RG6 cables, etc, I hooked the TV2 output from my dish 622 receiver using a 4' RG6 coax with the second TV in the same room as the 622.
The picture is grainy. I don't expect HDTV but it should not be grainy. FYI it is not a snowy picture, just grainy like analogue cable used to be. I even tried other 4' cables. Still grainy.
There are no local channels broadcasting (anywhere near) the TV output channels I am using.
I have tried multiple channels, air, cable, nothing helps.
Is this just a poor design with the receiver? It seems a lot of people are complaining about this when I search the net.
I have a Netmedia video modulator. Just as a test, I connected the composite video output from the 622 to this unit and set it to output on channel 22 (for example). It works perfectly, no grainy picture even going through 75' cable to the other TV.
I shouldn't have to do this. Is there any way to improve the signal quality on the TV1 & TV2 outputs so I don't have to use the modulator? The modulator is for use somewhere else in my home.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Please be honest. If the receiver is known for this I would appreciate honesty as I have ruled out every other possibility.
