Thanks for your help on this. Got it switched over to Chicago locals, works great.

ok thanks--so then if i buy a 211 ( assuming I'd look on ebay or something?), do I have to get that activated at my primary home first? Would I have to pay another monthly charge for that? I'd only use it at the cottage on rare occasions (a football game, a movie, etc). We would never watch...

Ok thanks So would I use the card from one of my receivers at home in the 211?

New dish customer here. I have a hopper, a super Joey, and 2 joeys. The hopper and super Joey would be difficult to move. However, the joeys would be easy to move and bring with to a cottage we use in the summer. There is already a dish on the roof of this cottage from an old owner. Can I bring...

Are you serious? Cut down the trees on my wooded lot so I can watch more TV? "I love how customers want the world..." Hey do me a favor and get off your high horse you sanctimonious jerk.

So installer left, we only have SD locals. :( So is the only solution to "move"?

thanks guys

I don't know what we get yet, the installer is still here working... I couldn't find the Chicago spot beam map, but the other spot beam maps I looked at looked huge--you sure it wouldn't reach up here?

All our TVs are HD, wouldn't really want SD receivers. The installer said we have satellites 110, 119, and 129, if that helps. Chicago locals would be great if we "moved", but not essential. But not having any HD network channels would be a deal breaker. Are there other areas that we'd be in...

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, I tried to search but couldn't find the exact answer. Just switched from Directv to Dish. Installer came today while I was at work and talked to my wife. He said that he would hook it up now, but in a year or so we would lose our locals, because we...

I have Directv coming in 2 days to do a new install (replacing Dish Network). I have 4 TVs in my house, and they are bringing a Hr-34 and 3 HD boxes. Currently I have a Dishnetwork box, and have my living room TV connected via HDMI, and a bedroom TV connected to the same box via components run...

Can I get the AAA discount AND a referral discount? I have a AAA membership, and I see how to get that discount. How would I add a referral discount on top of that? Is it possible?

do i need to sign up for a AAA membership for that? Then do i go through the AAA website to get the discount, or is there a code I put in on Directv's website? thanks!

Without going into too much detail, can you give me a thumbnail on what the HR34 can do that the HR24 can't?

I am a Dish customer who would like to switch to Directv, and I have a couple questions I was hoping you could help me with. First, I called Directv yesterday, and they quoted me a price of 52.99 per month after the autopay credit and 31/month rebate. When I got my activation email, the bill...
