Hi Charles, i am sorry that you are having this problem with the receiver. You will most likely need an authorization from DISH to the receiver to be able to view your programming. Please email me directly with your account or phone number. I will also need the receiver and smartcard numbers, which you can obtain by pressing menu twice on your remote. Thank you!
