The 023 error code is just letting you know that the program guide information can't be downloaded. In most cases a simple rest by unplugging the receiver for 10 seconds and plugging it back in will fix it. If it continues after the reset, you'll want to run a Check Switch Test.
This can be done by going to Main Manu > System Setup > Installation > Point Dish. Select 'Check Switch' then 'Test'. Let it finish and then exit out. It will reacquire the signal and download the guide. If it still continues after that, then a replacement receiver may be needed.

You may not have your Dish satellite receiver on the correct channel if it is a duo (dual receiver). You will need to tune it to either 60 or channel 73. Also, make sure your power to your Dish Network receiver is on -- for the Dish TV duo receiver, you should see a light for TV2 and TV1.

For DISH Network, the receiver can be about 200 ft away from the dish to operate optimally.
it depends on receiver model, and electrical code regulations. but to get it to work all you need to do is have a line run from the 1000.2 LNB (port 1 2 or 3) to the receiver. if you have a dual receiver you'll need to run a second line, or use a separator.
Unfortunately, we do not have a code for the Strong 4900 HD receiver. I suggest contact the manufacturer to see if they can provide a code for you. Thanks.
With a DISH Network receiver this is definitely possible, it is referred to as a "Dual-Tuner," and as long as the receiver is in Duo Mode, it allows you to watch independent programming on both TV1 & TV2.

Actually, you can use a legacy receiver with a DISH Pro dish. An adapter is needed at the receiver to get the proper signal for that receiver. No, Dish Pro is a stacked technology, which the older 3700 will not recognize.
