    DirecTV vs Uverse

    I apologize if this thread is repetitive, I've spent a lot of time researching but was hoping for a more up-to-date opinion on this. I'm moving from an apartment where I can get either Uverse or a cable provider (no thanks) to a house where I can get whatever I want. It's basically down to...

    Test for DirecTV

    Sorry to be obnoxious but I'm still a little confused. Does this mean I would need two separate dishes to pick up both feeds for watching in HD?

    Test for DirecTV

    I am previously a Dish Network subscriber where I had to look at two satellites to get both regular programming and locals. Are you saying with Direc I would only have to look at the 101 satellite?

    Test for DirecTV

    Yes, that is why I am trying to schedule things now. I'm moving in July 10. So what about that 3 floor building that would be in the way. Do you think the elevation angle would be OK enough?

    Test for DirecTV

    I tried this. They basically told me that all I can do is schedule an install and have them come out and check everything out. Being that I am in a different state as the apartment, this is impossible. And my fear is, I have them come out the day I move in, only to find out I can't get...

    Test for DirecTV

    Ha. Unfortunately, I am in the northernmost one. The one that face the parking lot to the southeast. My porch faces the parking lot. When I enter the address into the website, the pin falls pretty much exactly where my unit is and where my porch is.

    Test for DirecTV

    Thanks for that dishpointer site. I still am unsure. Do any Dish experts mind putting in my address and trying to determine if I can get DirecTV or not? My address is: 9956 west haven circle Indianapolis, IN 46280 This is an apartment complex, and my porch is basically exactly where the pin...

    Test for DirecTV

    I'm moving into an apartment complex that only allows dishes to be on the balcony of the unit. I think my new place is facing south-ish, but I'm not positive I will be able to see the right sky (in fact, I'm fairly positive it won't, unfortunately). Is there a way that I can have DirecTV just...

    Are there ANY former E* users that have switched to D*?

    Two questions... 1. How many HD programs can the HD DVR record at once? 2. Which receiver can I use for MRV? Can I use the standard SD one, or does the other one need to be DVR as well?

    Are there ANY former E* users that have switched to D*?

    This is good, I like it. I am definitely getting pulled towards DirecTV. I will say, however, that those of you shrugging of the dual tuners... I really do like that feature. My other TV right now is only SD and it is very nice to be able to watch DVR recorded on the main TV from my second TV...

    Are there ANY former E* users that have switched to D*?

    The last few years I've been an E* subscriber. I am not about to move off on my own for the first time and I am debating between E* and D*. I know these threads probably come and go, but hear me out. Every comparison review between the two says it comes down to "if you like sports, get D*. If...
