    Shaddy Installers.

    Sorry for your situation Axg, but yours is the NORMAL way they dispatch and just another reason why we no longer do DTV, as stated in these forums numerous times, us subs only get paid if we do the job, we got sick of rolling onto jobs such as yours several times a week where the customer was...

    Recom. installer to fix D* installation

    The instant he removes that bracket he becomes liable for those holes and any leaks that may or may not occur now and down the road. Leaving it alone keeps the previous installer/company still on the hook for it so what he did was the right thing and smart thing to do in my book. :up

    Recom. installer to fix D* installation

    Without sounding like a broken record :rolleyes: DTV has pushed the industry in this direction and are getting exactly what they must have wanted. Incompetent techs who do everything for Free, and NOTHING at all right. They lie NON STOP about what the issue or problem is. A good tech can...

    Havent dealt with many homeowners assoc have you? When you buy in that subdivision or such you AGREE to the Associations rules which are clearly and cleverly written by blood sucking lawyers, they will abide by the law and not outright say you cant have a dish, but they will also rule out most...

    New Contruction cabling question/advice - two room receivers?

    Dish has the dual tuner receivers with the RF remote and backfeed, not DTV. You will need a receiver at every location if you want to watch different programming at each. ( for Direct TV )

    over the air antenna question

    UPN, no, others are all digital, CFTO is in HD from canada( 5-1), not all the time, but just like most US, the prime time programming is. Only thing is, their prime time stuff is all the same as ours. :rolleyes:
