I just purchased a Sylvania 32" HDTV. I have Dish Network. I hooked the TV up to the Dish receiver via a coaxial cable. The TV scanned for channels and immediately found the dish receiver and I could begin watching television right away. The issue is that the picture is still square (instead of filling the whole screen, a rectangle) and there is static present.

Also, (this question should probably be in the Dish forum) I cannot find the correct code for the TV to power on/off with the Dish remote. I can change the channels, but not power.

Anyone have any troubleshooting ideas?

Greatly appreciated,

Liz
