Thanks all for your replies. I will try the move later this summer. Thankss.

I live in Erie, PA and wonder if the Cleveland spotbeams that offer Cleveland HD locals reaches Erie, PA? I am thinking of "moving" to get these channels. Any advice?

Are you receiving all the STO HD games in HD, on channel 96 then? Doesn't that also mean that you have a H20 or HR20 and the 5 lnb dish? Thanks.

Has anyone else done this successfully....

I have a similar situation and want to make sure I don't screw things up. I live in Western PA but have a service address in NY so that I can get the networks. I currently have MPEG 2 equipment but am thinking of buying on Ebay Mpeg 4 H20 and new slimline dish for self install. Then I would...

Will Yankees games be in HD on 95 this year too for those of us who haven't gone MPEG 4?

same question for Erie, PA Where are these maps you reference. I wonder if the Pitt spots cover Erie, PA? Thanks for the info.

Are they shipping it to you? Are they shipping it directly to your home address? I thought these had to be installed by DTV?

Can you self-install these units? I want it shipped to my billing address (someone is there all the time) and then will pick it up and install it later. It's easy to do, right? Just plug in the cables. Two satellite feeds? Thanks for the help...

Ater not receiving any replies here I resorted to calling Dish technical service. I got lucky. Talked to someone who had a clue. Told him about the problem and switched out the receiver and got great signal strength on the other receiver. So figured it wasn't the dish but the 6000 receiver...

losing signal strength on Dish 6000 Over the last month I have been having problems with getting CBS-HD from the 61.5 satelite. It will not lock most of the time and when it does it will give me macro blocking often. I checked switch (21) 6-7 times and it passes every time. I noticed the...
