    It's Official, I Am Dumping Dish

    I had a problem yesterday and they thought a tech would have to come out which they said would cost me 99.00. I switched to Dish for one reason and one reason only...cheaper price. If I had to pay 99.00 it would be stupid for me to stay with them because any savings would be eaten up by one...

    Joining Dish this Friday -- can't decide on package

    I would get the 180 channel package with Dish and get the 522 system. You can control two sets with the one receiver. I am with SBC Dish so I get a bundled deal. I pay 49.95 a month compared to 65.00 I was paying to Telemedia for less.

    Disabling 522 DVR on 2nd TV

    I can answer part of your question. In single mode you can watch a show on tv 1 and record a show to tv 2 at the same time. You can also use PIP.

    Dishnetwork + Condo + Alternatives

    I have seen them on tri-pods that were pretty high. You need to get an installer out to check it out. He may have some ideas. Also check and see if any of the other condo owners have a Dish and see where they have placed it. You will also need to know the condo rules but they cannot forbid...

    Dishnetwork + Condo + Alternatives

    I know some that live in Condo's and they usually have a deck that they attach it to. The others use a pole in the ground to attach it to because many condo places do not want it on the physical facility.

    newbie 522 help

    There is a mode button on the front of your receiver. You can run it in either mode. Since my son is in the Army I run mine in single mode so I can use PIP. You should be able to record to tv2 from your living room and stop the recording on tv2 from the living room with the same remote. Make...
