If anyone else having trouble getting the Dish 501 Dual RF Remote
to operate the #2 receiver -- even at close range?

Mine works intermittently -- generally always works if I put the
remote within ONE FOOT of the antenna.

Dish has been responsive, even brining another receiver
out (service call for free) and replacing it, but they both
suffer same problem.

Dish support swears there is no known WiFi or Cordless phone
interference, but I am not sure since something must account for
the INTERMITTENT problems.


How about WiFi 802.11b or 802.11g, or cordless phones --
900 Mhz, 2.6, 5.8 (we have it all, although when the problem
started we were only using 900 Mhz.)
