We have the Directv Genie DVR with a mini for the rear bedroom. We have an older Winegard Dome Dish and I've hooked it up following the instructions here. http://www.winegard.com/help/images/d/d1/2452242.pdf
On the main unit we get an error 771 Single Loss on Satellite 1 or sometimes 2.
I might think it was bad cabling or something but there are a few oddities.
1. It only reports the error on the main TV or box. The bedroom TV never reports an error.
2. Looking at the signal strength meters all 5 are showing in the 90's %
3. The error never shows up on recorded shows.
4. Error message will come and go. When it is displaying the screen saver will kick in unless you hit something on the remote.
I'm beginning to think that I may have a bad DVR. Any thoughts?
