    Where is the new AK/HI HD

    129 I have 110 119 and 129 now. I'm not getting any of the 129 channels yet, they showed up in the guide, and they are erroring. I will go tune the dish in and check again. Do you think I'll need to call and get a hit?

    Installer pay?

    I am an installer for a rural Alaska retailer, which is a telephone Co-op. I am planning on moving down to the lower 48, but am seeking a job first. So my question is, how much to dish network installers get paid down there, seeing as i have 1+ years experience in the field. Thanks in advance...
