Channel Problem

I lost my remote control for TV2 and I can't change the "input" to get to channel 22 or 73.  Any suggestions?

Hi, I am sorry you are having a problem changing the input on your TV. If the DISH remote changes the volume on the TV normally, then press the clear TV button on the top of the remote and let go. Now try the input button again. If this still does not work, you will need to find a button on the TV itself that will allow you to change the Input or Source. Please email me direclty if you are stll having an issue. Thank you!
