With DP Plus technology the "plus" aspect of the system all has to work right. What I mean is that if the DP Plus LNB isn't working quite right then that will affect how the seperator does its job...or vise-versa. A glitch in one spot can cause something glitchy elsewhere. I've had to replace...

I have noticed it watching football games. It's very brief, and only happens occasionally, but I noticed it does not happen during commercials or the pre/post game part...I don't think it's a fault within the residential system itself. I think it is in the uplink.

Oh! Oh! I know...the difference is 0.1! Sorry...just couldn't help myself. :D

As an existing western arc customer you would not be able to switch to eastern arc. Do you use the 1000.2 dish with the triple LNB, or do you have a two dish system (one dish for 119 & 110, second dish for 129)? If you have the two dish system, you perhaps could relocate the 129 dish. Come...

Sorry, I missed that part. I agree. That is true, but for some of antenna upgrades there is no "tech visit" fee, yet it still requires a tech visit. Wonder why?

I contacted Retail Services a while ago. I was wrong....sort of. Even if it IS a dishnitup (upgrade) the same rule applies...a $15 "tech visit" fee for those with the service plan, and $95 for those without the service plan. So it applies regardless of whether or not it is a service call or...

It's my understanding that the $95 fee is for a service call for those who do not have the service plan, and $15 for those who do. Unless I am really mistaken, an upgrade (a "dishnitup") is not a "service call", so the $95 fee should not apply.

Were you talking to DISH...or to a retailer (who sometimes present themselves as "DISH"...which they aren't supposed to do)? What number did you call?

10,500ft? Heck, just get a ladder and hook up directly to the satellite itself! ;)

Yeah, that'll work. The VIP222K is an MPEG4 reciever, but it will handle both MPEG4 and MPEG2 signal. The 1000.2 dish will pickup the 119,100 & 129 whichis MPEG2. A combo that would not work would be the 1000.4 dish (MPEG4) with a non-VIP (non-HD) reciever such as a 322 or 311, etc. which are...

I don't think you can pay annually while you're under a 24 month agreement.

There is a difference between a "dishnitup," which is an upgrade consisting of a receiver and possibly a change in the dish, and an antenna upgrade. I think what happened is an issue of semantics. There is no charge for the antenna upgrade per say, but there is a tech visit fee of $15. If you...

I'm a retailer, and I do find this somewhat odd. I have had past customers come in who had been out of the system long enough that they qualified as new customers. AND I have had previous customers come in who qualified as former customers and got former cutomer promotions. I'm not for sure...

The diaper-answer..."depends." Did you purchase the equipment? If not, the equipment belongs to DISH and will have to be returned. Contact DISH, they can tell you. Before you cancel your account, call and ask about being put on "pause." That way when you get back you will not have to go...

Boba is probably right, it probably is a software issue. The download will enable the receiver to look for and recognize the 129 orbital location. The software in the receiver determines what it will look for and recognize. First, check the cable from the dish to the receiver. Having the...

Not a dumb question...we're all learning all the time. Glad you got it up and going.:up

As I understand it, if you presently have DISH family you will be "grandfathered in." You will not have to switch to a bigger package after June 3rd. However, after June the 3rd DISH Family will not be an option for new or existing customers. I'm betting not enough people signed up with DISH...

Okay, he originally signed an agreement...I presume making him a DHA customer. The current business rules for a dishnitup to a 722 are maximum $100. I am curious to know why he would not have qualified. Also, was he dealing directly with DISH or a Retailer?

There are two things often confused with being a splitter. One that has already been mentioned is the "seperator" which is used right behind the reciever. It has what it is printed on it. The single side of the seperator connects to the cable leading to the dish. The other two sides connect...

Wait, I'm confused...both the 508 and the 311 (and 301) are MPEG2, and the 72.7 is MPEG4, how will any of those recievers work?:confused:

Hmmm, with the 1000.2 aiming at western arc, I presume you're shooting for the 119,100 and 129? With the 1000.2 you connect to port one which is for the center "eye" (horn) of the LNB to pickup and peak on the 119. After peaking, I'd put my hand in front the center horn, and if the signal...

Everything.....everything that DISH does is always subject to change at any time without notice...read the fine print. It's gonna be fun explaining this to customers....it's this much without this....but with this it'll be this much but you gotta do this OR this AND that then it'll be this much...

Mercy, there is alot left out of your post. Do you have an active account with DISH, do you have a useable receiver?

Been doing this for 5 years, and our relationship with DISH has been pretty good. There are only 2 of us, my wife and I. We have no subs or other employees. I had prior experience as a tech. We set up accounts for folks and install them. We do only the DHA24 (24 month agreement.) We have...

Me and my wife operate a retailership and do our own installs and tech work. We have enjoyed it, but there are lots of rules and policies that you have to know, understand and agree to. To get started go here: https://retailer.dishnetwork.com/prmportal/start.swe?SWECmd=Start ...and click...
