Conect is an HSP for directv on the east coast. Aerosat is a new HSP out of Tn that I heard rumor of.

has anyone heard that connectv is leaving the east coast and aerosat is taking over?

ccdish take down any company? that is the funniest thing i have ever heard. the only way that cc dish will accomplish that is by continuing with thier current practice of not paying for completed jobs because they were "not in report". and not paying anyone for service calls on someone elses...

bruister & associates would be my guess

Thanks for giving me the info I was looking for. But now I have a new question. Why is the satellite industry unregulated? You can't be a plumber or electrician without a license. You can't even cut hair without a license. These hsps are sending out inexperienced and unlicensed installers...

let me guess...they probably even told you to get the install done no matter what. even if its a matter of safety to you. sure hope the hsp and the homeowner have really good insurance!

What? Force the hsp's to follow a few of the rules? That would be a novel idea!

Nice to know that anybody fresh from Mc Donalds can install a satellite system. I think I'll stick with cable!

As usual.....NO STRAIGHT ANSWER!......Let me see if I can rephrase the original question so I understand. Are installers required to be sbca certified? And by the way, thanks for the extra insight into the insurance thing.

Are hsp installers required to have company identification and also be sbca certified? Is it ok to just put anyone with very little training in a van that says direct tv and send them out into the field? I'm really curious to know how many homeowners out there want these type of installers...
