Best offer they gave me was $99 with free install. So I guess I'll do that and put the reciever it is replacing in the other bedroom. I was hoping it meant replacing all the boxes so we could record in the other room. The service does cover all recievers in the home BUT only the combo recievers...

Sorry for my ignorance but what is D* RETENTION?

I want to get one but don't know anything about them. Do you have to get it through your sat. provider? I have had Directv for years, two boxes. I checked their website and they offer Directv plus DVR for $99 plus two year commitment and monthly fee. It says it is a lease. If you are not buying...

"sat internet and gaming do not get along" :eek: My teen's going to be in for a big suprise. He is sooo looking forward to "high speed" for his game. Is it the same problem with xbox360? He has never been able to use that because of the lack of a high speed connection. He is playing "world of...

I've got my Wildblue install schedualed for next week. :D I want to get everything I need before then. I want my son's PC hardwired, I read it is more reliable for online gaming, but I want wireless for my laptop. I mostly just surf and check email. Is that possible? Would I need a wireless...

How do you know if you are in one of those areas? I was thinking about using them. I'm in northern NC and no DSL available on my road. I have two PCs I want connected and one is hooked to a internet gaming teenager. Dialup is slow here, average 42kbs but the worst part is we can't both be on at...

I found a used 10 ft mesh dish for $25.(very fine mesh) It has a motor but I haven't tested it yet. The base(where the motor is connected) has rust on it. I will have to sand the spots down and repaint. I thought about just painting the whole thing but would that effect the reception? This is...

Thanks for the tips! :) Oh, can any dish be motorized?

Goal is to get C band and KU on the same dish. Would it be possible to get a used older dish that would work? Or is the design different now? Any specifics I would need to know before looking? Thanks,

Thanks for all the info. I have pointed a dish once. We switched from Dish to DirecTV so I was left with a dish and receiver to play with. With a compass and lots of research I set it up for a SkyAngel subscription. I will not attempt the big move before reading a whole lot more. This gives me...

OK, trying to get a grasp on how this works. So if my goal is to watch TVU (C band) and Chuck Harder (KU) what would the best approach be? I looked up some recievers and one I looked at say it would manage multible dishes. (fortec star lifetime ultra) so could it be accomplised by connecting a...

Hi I'm new to the forum. We have DirecTV as our normal sat TV but I have Sky Angel in my bedroom through a Dish Network dish and reciever. It is time to renew the SkyAngel(yearly) and I'm thinking of switching to FTA. I only watch 2 of the SkyAngel channels, TVU & Spirit both music videos and I...
