What channel is the tv supposed to be tuned to to view dish network?

Answer 1

It depends on what Dish Network receiver you have and what channel or input was initially set up by your installer. If you have had Dish TV for awhile and have not had an upgrade, and have a single tuner Dish receiver it is most likely channel 3 (Unless you have a duo/dual receiver which services 2 televisions). If you have a duo/dual Dish receiver, and are viewing TV2 (usually where the receiver is not located in the room), default settings are channel 60 or 73. If you have an HDTV and an HD receiver, your TV may have been tuned to one of your television inputs using a HDMI cord as this makes for the best quality viewing for HD programming. If all else fails, call Dish Network customer service; they are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
