    A few installation questions

    if you have 2 ft of snow, the ground probably isn't froze that deep. I'm told 150 ft is the limit is the limit on cable length. I've gone further. He shouldnt use the C-band wire, the distance can cause problems sometimes, but I know alot of people who do.

    What's included with "Standard Professional" install?

    There is a fee for phone lines, wall fishing (if it is over 5 ft), mirroring and remotes other than the ones in the box.

    Birdog trouble

    I had just put that data on the meter for SBS6, so I guess it's logical to say that the data I'm downloading is outdated. So what would be a good bird to shoot that the Dog can catch???? And, why doesn't the Birdog pick up anything from this Invacom lnb?

    Birdog trouble

    I'm having trouble aiming my dish with my Birdog meter. I can get a signal reading but it doesn't recognize the satellite. For that matter I could just use an analog meter to do that. What am I doing wrong?

    First Look: DishPro Plus 33 Switch

    Perhaps the DPP33 doesn't have a port that can use an FSS LNBF.
