I have a 2000 Newmar Mountain Aire which I purchased about a month ago. My only problem now seems to be the Satellite Dish System. I checked with Dish Network (my current subscriber) about using one of my receivers in the coach, and they indicated it would not be a problem. This coach has an automatic positioner, and I managed to get the video signal, but not the audio. I get audio on local channels, and the VCR...but not on satellite. Does anyone have any ideas?

Not being familar with your RV, I have to ask, do you have a TV controller box that selects, Sat, Cabel, Ant, VCR, etc.?
If you do, have you tried different position combinations for the audio?

I have a sumular system, Dishnetwork using a Kingdome. I use the 322 reciever which is recommended. When I move the receiver from the house to the MH I must run check switch and Test. This changes the Installed device to SW21. When I move the receiver back to the house I must run test switch again to change the setting back to DPP1K.2. I was told by the tech that installed the Kingdome that the receiver must be on SW21 to operate. If you have problems with this I will give you step by step inst. on how to work If you think it may be the problem.

Steps to change switch using remote
Menu
6 (Systen Set up)
1 (Installation)
1 (Point Dish/Signal)
Check Switch
Test
At the top of the screen should read Installed Device SW21 for use with the King Dome. When set for use in my house the Installed Device is DPP1K.2
When you run test you will change the installed device setting.
If you continue to have trouble call King Dome, they were very helpful.
