I have Dish Sattelite. The screen on my JVC digital tv says digital strength is low. Do I call Dish? or ?

Easiest way would be use the HDMI output from your Satellite Receiver box to your new TV. If you don't have a Satellite Receiver box at that location, you'll need to get one from your service provider.

Your TV will not interface directly with the dish - you need the equivalent of a cable box to decode the signals from the dish, select channels, etc.

Sattelite dish out of line?
Go into skybox menus and find out the signal strength

I have a digital tv by JVC. It says digital box is low I went online and I see this happens to others. One suggestion was unplug the receiver for five minutes. Do you have any other suggestions. I have Dish TV.

you need to get a digital aerial first .then you can sort out any other problems from there

Please Google this "how to make a tv dish antenna at home" then you will a lot of hits.
Sonce you did not give more details as to what kind of antenna, Sattelite? Digital TV, etc.

fidgar,

If I understand you correctly, you are having a problem with you DISH Network remote operating your JVC TV? What type remote do you have? If you look on the back at the top, you will see an 2 digit number; e.g. 3.0 ir. Please let me know what the model number is and I can provide you with code to try to program the remote to your TV.

If the TV 2 remote does not remove the screen saver when you press "Select", the remote probably needs to be readdressed to the receiver. You want to take the TV 2 remote to TV 1 location. I have provided a link with the full instructions on how to readdress the remote. I hope this helps.

The problem with checking signal strength is you have to know exactly what sattelites are used and what transponders there on. dish net uses 119 and 110 and sometimes 61.5 your best bet is to check sattelite menu. Hit menu once that comes up hit button number 6, then button number 1 then button number 1 again. then you have to run a test switch its right in the middle, If it finds anything or low signal there will be a check details or error message in red on the bottom of the screen, it will tell you exactly what is wrong. Also one more thing is you can go to menu then hit button number 6, then number 1, then number 3. If the signal is good on the t.v. then it is probably what they call L.O. Drift or Lnb drift which that check will tell you, this is common for older dish systems especially super dishes, which are the big dishes if this is it then you have to schedule and appointment and they will upgrade your dish. If this is too much to take in, you can always call customer service they will walk you through the same thing step by step.

is a dish position , not in position, need a special signal meter, to tune the right signal, and normaly must replace the dish head, old models has low digital output signal. you need a specialist to tune the dish position and get the proper compatible dish head. for your receiver.

First, did the satellite company install an HD receiver? Second, are you using either component or HDMI cables from receiver to TV?  Still there are two factors that would produce your problem.  1. Color calibration 2. Signal strength
Proper color calibration is what makes SD actually GOOD on HDTVs. Low signal strength will create  a slow data situation. Slow data will not provide enough information per second for the TV to display a complete, error free picture so your TV has to interpolate or "guess" what colors should go in the pixels that it didn't get the data for.
