New Dear 622 Receiver
 

Well, they *finally* came out to hook up the Dish Network HD system
after waiting nearly a month.
I had all the cables run so it was just a matter of changing the dish
and receiver. They now only use one dish, but tech support told me
two so I had an extra RG-6 run. They used the same mount and just
replaced the dish and feed horns which made that a quick job.

Unfortunately when the installer hooked up the new 622 dual tuner/DVR
it came up with a catastrophic disk error, couldn't find the signals,
and then wouldn't reboot at all. The 622s are on back order so I
don't know when the new one will arrive. It's just as well the
installer was the one doing...well.. the installing and it's under
warranty.

What seems strange is the HD receiver only comes with the standard
video/audio output cables even though it has an HDMI cable connector
although a strange looking one and that is the one the instructions
say to use.
