Using VCR with Dish Network

sammy28 · #1 Oct 3, 2007, 06:28 PM

Had Dish installed recently and can't figure out how to use my VCR's with it. Never had any problem using it with digital cable. The Dish installer seemed to hook the VCR to the receiver properly but I'm unable to record anything. Wish there was a "Guide for Dummies" to walk me thru this process Any help?

If using Coax, you need to record Channel 3 if that is the output from Sat receiver.
If using RCA, need to select from there.
Your wish has been granted courtesy of monster cable. Try this, best I have seen:
