Tech just called and said he is an hour out. It's the same fella as last time, and he is/was very cool. He said he has a MT2 OTA module to kick down to me, free, for my 922. After all the helpful advice, I'll prolly just tell him to leave the WA setup, and ask for one of the 'new' WA...

Okay. If it's not to challenging to "move", that wouldn't be a problem from my POV.

Oh, I guess I should also mention that the view for the EA is much clearer here than the aim for the WA. My current signal strengths seem to bounce between 40 and 56 on a clear night. The current dish is roof mounted with simple lag bolts. This also seems an ideal position for a potential...

Wow, thanks all for the great info.... now I'm even more curious. I am in baton rouge, but all the local channels here can be pulled in OTA with minimal effort. if I do get on the Eastern sats, maybe they'll port me Monroe or Lake Chuck local news (?) Wouldn't mind that one bit. It's...

I have a much clearer view of the southeastern sky - no trees. To aim the 1000.2, he had to aim through large oak trees. I bet my signal strength will be better tomorrow. I read that back on 2008 the western arc birds weren't all broadcasting MPEG4 yet, but that might have changed by now.

So, I just got DN and a VIP922. The work order said I was to get a 1000.4 dish, but the tech installed a 1000.2. I live in Southern Louisiana. I got tech support on chat and convinced them to send me out the correct dish, even tho they told me there was no difference between the western arc...
