Troubleshooting:

75% of all technical problems that an agent can help you with  
can be solved by following these five easy steps:

1. Make sure your DISH remote is in SAT mode.
2.  Make sure your TV is on the correct input/channel. 
3. Make sure you’re on the correct Favorites List. 
4.  Check for anything obstructing the signal to your satellite  

   dish, such as tree branches, severe rain, or snow build-up.   

   If it is safe to do so, remove the obstruction or wait for it  

  

to pass.

5.  Reset your receiver by unplugging it from the wall for 10  

   seconds. Plug it back in and turn it on.
