Are you using the HDMI connection?

Also, it might help if we knew which DISH receiver you have.

Try powering the TV on first, before the receiver. Could be HDMI handshake
error. Also, bad connections are notorious on the HDMI connectors on those
units. Are you using the HDMI for sound as well as video?

i'm not sure how the sound is hooked up, but it is hooked to an external
surround system if that tells you anything.

Is your HDMI a direct run connection to the tv? Or through the \ surround
receiver? Direct run might work better fot the handshaking.

And a long shot . . . rebooting [unplugging] your Dish 720 _might_
clear it up.

What can we say if you can't even relate your system's connections.
