well, the tech arrived right on time and was able to swap out my 500 dish and my 522 receiver for a 1000 dish and 622 in quick fashion.
then, he did the satellite test...the sat 2 receiver picked up 110,119, and 129 just fine, but sat 1 didn't pick up anything and said there was a problem with a switch or connection.
he went outside and changed a LNB on the dish, and he switched out the separator he had used for another one, but still no good.
so, he hooked the 522 back up, and it grabbed all 3 positions on both receivers, so he said the 622 was DOA. thankfully, his office had another one and he's gonna be back around noon to try again...i will update then...i knew it would be something!!
