Just a guess, but switch the component input on your TV. Should be a menu.

Oh sorry, guess I didn't notice you plugged it into the receiver. I don't know anything about Dish. My TV has a menu to easily switch between the various component types, antenna is on the menu so I figured yours would have something similar.

I suppose there's a chance there are no HD signals being broadcast within range in your area.

Also, the HDTV antenna is just a regular antenna that they label HDTV and markup about 200%. Any normal TV antenna that can pick up UHF and VHF should work

Also, most people report better results with outdoor antennas. Not sure what you are using.

I've got Dish and an HDTV. I don't have the HDTV sat receiver though. Does it have an over-the-air decoder for HD built in?

My TV has it already, so I just plug rabbit ears in when I want to get local channels in HD. (We only have NBC/PBS.)

anybody have dish network... how do you get local HD channels?
