code 771

This code is coming on every few days and the weather is clear and sunny. I keep the video but about every few minutes advertisements come on. Please send me a new receiver. Second request.

Very unlikely you need anew receiver, 771 means the receiver is not getting reliable signals from the dish. 99% probable your dish is out of alignment., and you need a tech visit to realign it. Calldirectv 1 (800) 531-5000 or use chat to schedule a tech visit. But a wait of a couplei of hours on the phone is not unusual.. The call centers are very understafffed because of Covid, some call centers are closed completely
