Dp 44 switch
ADVERTS 1
HI there I have superdish 110 119 and 121. Dish recently told me that they would send someone to repoint 121 to new sat 118.7. I would like to keep my 61.5 along with that set up. before they send anyone Is there a way i can ask for a dp 44 instead of keeping dp 34?
Thanks

If you need four orbital locations to get all of your subscribed programming, then they will install a DPP44. If not, you'll have to buy your own.

They will have to replace the dish with a Dish 500+ or 1000+, or they may use an upgrade kit.
What are you using 61.5 for?FTA---> OpenBox S10, Icon S550, Coolsat 5000 Platinum and a couple others not hooked up....8' for C-band and Ku with DMX741U 72W to 131W...36" Ku fixed at AMC-21

im using it for international channels but they informed me that 61.5 will be soon moving to 118.7. I don't have hd so i can't ask to leave the 61.5 for now. My dp 34 has been giving me a lot of problems and I have heard good things about dp 44 and it's always nice to have an extra sat on it. Can anyone give me any idea how i should convince them for a dp 44?

It's kinda sneaky...but it may work. Temporarily sign up for Sky Angel programming, since it's on the 61.5. After your 118.7 repoint, discontinue Sky Angel programming. Voila! Instant DPP44 switch.

wouldn't they still leave me on dp 34 though if i sign up for skyangel on 61.5. Let's assume i do so, then i would have 61.5, 118.7(119 included on one lnb),110.
What would be another choice 129 for locals? or 105?
Thanks Guys I really appreciate your help.

Proud Staff MemberNo not really not at this time. If you sign up for Dish HD they will more than likely put you up with a 1000+ for 129HD.

Perhaps signing up ONLY for 3ABN? Or is that part of the Sky Angel group of channels?
