I previously posted a question about what was wrong with my Dish Network when it went off on stand by at exactly 3 AM every day, and how to fix it. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100308001907AAB1L6s. I think I may have found a solution to my problem.
But here's one part I still don't get. At the old house, when it went onto stand by in my room, the Dish Network screen would pop up and then you would select no or cancel to cancel the stand by; and it didn't go to the annoying grey and white, like it does here. Now I don't know if that is because that at the old house, in my room I didn't have a reciever, like I do here. I not sure why it does that here and wouldn't there, but I think I may have found a solution to it.
I read an article online about what causes stand by on dish network recievers, and it said that a receiver and or dvr will go onto stand by ever 24 hours that the receiver and or dvr is on without turning it off within a 24 hour period. So evidently, I have to turn off my receiver at least once a day to make it stop stand by. I think that that's it because several days ago, I accidentally turned off my receiver only for a minute, and that night it didn't go to stand by.
But for how long should I turn it off for? Does anybody know? Could it just be for a second or for several hours?
I GREATLY appreciate all of your help!!!!!!!!!!!
