Tips & Warnings
Generally a TVs tuner can be set to one of two modes depending on what type of signal it is receiving through its cable wire input: either "Air" (antenna) or "Cable" (some paid television programming service usually from either a cable TV provider like Comcast or a satellite TV provider like Direct TV or Dish Network). Your Dish Network receiver's secondary TV output type must match that of the TV.
Do an autoprogram channel search. You could find that your TV wants to tune in on some other seemingly random channel (maybe 21)...
