Hi, I can understand how this can be frustrating but you just need to get the TV set back to the correct input to view the DISH receiver. Is the receiver turned on? Now cycle through the TV inputs, if you press the clear TV mode button on the top left side of the remote and let go, then press the input button below that. Please stop at each selection for about 30 seconds until you find the correct input. If you are still having an issue, please email me directly. Thank you!
