It's just blank.
I can get the game in regular but no HD

no sound or anything? Check cabling... signal strength and sat set up (119-110-129) Obviously you have an HD or HD ready tv and HD Box from Dish? Not missing much I'm watching and cant stand the cowboys!Slacker242 said:It's just blank.

Can you be more specific as to where you were trying to watch the game? An OTA local or satellite HD?Slacker242 said:It's just blank.

I have found that on my 622 the satellite signal is a lot weaker than all the others.Slacker242 said:I have been unable to watch MNF on ESPN HD for the past 2 weeks. All my other HD channels come in fine. I have a 622 and 211 and 2 HDTV's. Neither TV could get the HD feed on ESPN. The game comes in fine on regular ESPN.
If I turn the HD ESPN on, the screen is blank and the the searching window pops up after a few minutes but never finds anything.
Very strange that only this channel as a problem and usually only on MNF. This morning the channel was still out though.
Sounds like you should call Dish ASAP and have them send someone out to fix it before next Monday. That's the best way. If you don't know what you're doing, you'll only make things worse.Slacker242 said:Yes, MNF = Monday Night Football.
This is very frustrating. I'm not sure how I can tweak for just the ESPN HD channel. If someone can point me to a guide or walk me through it I would appreciate it.
Thanks.
While my picture does not go out, Sat 110 Trans7 is the lowest signal strength for me as well and in the mid 50's.Grandude said:I have found that on my 622 the satellite signal is a lot weaker than all the others.
This is Sat110 Transponder 17. Perhaps you are experiencing this too. The best signal I get is just around 60 but sometimes lower. I think Dish needs to fix this but in the meantime, you might try to peak or tweak your dish for maximum output for that one channel.
I don't know what or where MNF is so can't comment on that. Oh, did you mean Monday night football? If so, yes, that is most important to be able to get in HD.
Actually its not any lower then other receivers. But they did to decide to use a different scale on the 622 then some of the others. This is not the first receiver they did that to. So on each model receiver the numbers are relative to other channels on the same series and not necessary between receivers.Grandude said:I have found that on my 622 the satellite signal is a lot weaker than all the others.

And whats to say a lil tweaking might just not be the diff tween getting it or not even if it's ever so borderline.
Mines right about 52 which means I dont lose it except in inclement weather, but if my dish was tweaked ever so slightly I'd lbe liable to lose it at any time.
