I am getting black borders top & bottom on some channels and side to side as well on Fox on my Dish Net receiver 322 to analog TV.

If you're sure everything is connected correctly check your tv input, there is a special input channel for each cable. FOR TV1: RCA: input 1,input2,video 1,video2, if you're using a coax cable: channel 3 or 4. If the problem is on TV 2 you're using a coax cable and it has to be on channel 60 or 73. For a wiring diagram you can visit the official dish website (it's on your bill) & visit the technical support page. This link is for tv1, you will also find the steps for tv2

I can definitely provide some assistance and get some steps to try to fix this. To ensure I get the correct steps, how long ago did this start? Does anything come up on the screen when you try to change the channel? Was anything changed in the install? When you turn the TV off, then on, does it say an input or a channel?

starstruck32,

I do hope this has been fixed for you by now starstruck32, but if not there definitely may be a bigger problem we would need to have a technician go out and check. What I would like you to do is go to Menu -> System Setup -> Installation -> Point Dish -> Check Switch -> Test. You can let me know here what it shows.

If only one satellite signal is still being recognized we would have to have a technician go out, if you could send me an email at [email protected] and I would be happy to assist you further with that!

Hi my name is Mike Houston of DISH Network and I see youturned on the living room TV and it was black & white and had no signal.Depending if it's a Dual receiver and if the issue is TV1 or TV2 but there issome thing's you can check to make sure it is on the right channel. I will sendyou two links to help with the setup for both TV1 and TV2, if you have anymorequestions or concerns please e-mail me back at [email protected];http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/bbs-screenand http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/black-blue-tv2.

Is TV 2 off the 322 receiver being back fed from the receiver or do you have a direct connection to the 3rd room? If it is a direct connection, you would screw the coax from the 3rd bedroom directly to the TV 2 Home Distribution channel 21-69 out port.

If you are back feeding, you need 2 diplexers that connect 1) by the receiver and 2) between the receiver and the 3rd TV. The back feeding will use the same cable coming from the dish to the receiver.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi hartbettinaI see where your TV2 has a blue screen, there are a couple of things you can doyou can do. The first things you want to do is press the buttons of MENU-6-1-5and see if TV2 is set to channel 60 or 73 and make sure TV2 is on that channel.Once TV2 is on the channel on the Modular Setup page you will want to unplugthe receiver for 10 seconds and plug it back in and it will reset itself. Iwill send a link that will help with these steps. http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/black-blue-tv2

You shouldn't need to. You should get your local channels from Dish on the low channel numbers, like 2 through 70.

You must be talking about the 522 DVR. If so then there could be issues with your hard drive or a cableing issue. be sure to connect all sat in connections and if you conitune to have this issue call 1-800-333-3474 for tech support as your issue could take extensive troubleshooting. More than likely your will get a replacement DVR and if you still have the same issue then a tech will need to come out to check cableing, ground and lnb's on your dish.

The antenna ports on these receivers are only analog pass thru's they will not convert to digital.

Problem is solved. I unplugged my DVR from my receiver for about a minute, reconnected it, and the that solved the problem.
