ADVERTS 1
I got a nice little email from WB. Apparently, my certification that I just got in MAY 2006 will expire in Nov 2006 if I don't "recertify" (and pay more money, no doubt). AFAIK, our beam was shut down in June, right after we got certified. I got fired (finally) in early July, and as of that time, our office had NO WB equipment for us to even practice with, even though they were installing WB else where in the country. I'm glad I didn't have to pay for that certificate, but I really feel sorry for the customers in the Memphis area who will be installed by those rock-apes I used to work with. I was the only one of 4 of us to certify on the first try. Anyway, we were basically lied to about the APA, and everybody "said" they would refuse to buy one. We'll see, I supose. I hope weqc gets a contract to inspect those when they come back online. Mo' better routes for me if they do.

wow re-cert so soon? i got a question i want to get a used wb system and use it for only a few months (6mo max) then depending on the service keep it as back up. I'm going to use it illegally as in portable RV. i know about the spotbeam problem with this. but what i don't want is to get the original installer in any trouble. any advice? i plan on bull shitting wb into thinking a dish was already there and i got a modem from a private party they already say OK to that part. when actually the entire system will be second hand. any advice? thanks!

just goes to show you. you must be a multi service installer (wb/hn/sb/dish or directv or all) to survive and make it.

Proud Staff MemberSame here, WB has shut down installs I am in far far western NC, I can still do a few installs to the east but not many. If I didn't do DishNet, Direct, and HN I would be in trouble. As far as Star Band been there done that, hope I don't have to go back.
