    So the rep lied to me twice. OK, I'll give them a call and try. As long as I dont have to pay anything and it wont sign me up for another 2yrs.

    They'd just replace it with an HR22. I had complained about issues with the HR22 and they had offered to replace it with another HR22. At this point, since the two (directv and comcast) are the same price (for the next year), I don't think its worth paying anything for a receiver if I can get...

    HR22. They were able to discount me down to $26.99 (well now $36.99) but when I asked for a genie they wanted $300 to upgrade the receiver.

    Since I already have internet through comcast, its only an extra ($35 1st yr) $55/mo. Directv is $71/mo. Comcast will give me new equipment, DirecTV wont and I'm stuck with a 10yr old box. Yeah, DirecTV's picture quality should be better but I don't know if its worth $15/mo and using old...

    The the installer came out. He said he could not install it to the fascia because it would be too thin to support the dish. He also said he couldnt install it to the vinyl siding. My 3 story townhouse has a deck/balcony on the 2nd floor. He suggested there but it was too low to get over the...

    Your link refers to a CO statute. I'll have to look to see if there is something similar in NJ. AS for the OTA rule, I see nothing in there that would restrict an HOA from saying you can't install it on the roof and put it elsewhere. It doesnt define "unreasonable cost". Certainly if I don't...

    Thanks, I already pulled the trigger. They are scheduled to come out and have agreed to waive the fee. I have stuff on my DVR, HD antenna, and can do some streaming through my roku so I'm covered for now. I'll have to look into the "grandfathering". I never got any official approval from the...

    OK, I think I misunderstood and thought that it was not OK to install on vinyl but it seems it is. When I moved in, I was under the impression that I owned the exterior and roof. Reading the HOA rules, it say no dish at all. When I moved in, I just installed it without asking figuring no one...

    Making such a statement is not very useful. It is not that easy to just pickup and move for the sole purpose of satellite TV. Even if I decide to take that advice today, it still takes a long time to actually move. What do I for TV in the mean time?

    I do need to review my HOA documents. I was under the impression that I owned my roof. However, the HOA paying to replace all the roofs makes me think otherwise.

    They don't want it attached to the roof. They did not say it could not be attached to the house. They don't want it on the front of the house. They won't allow a pole in the ground. Someone mentioned a fence but I dont have a fence and I dont believe they allow mounting to a fence if I...

    The HOA contracted the roofing to be done. So my dish has already been removed. I dont have a fence and they wouldnt allow it on there. I don't have enough yard so that my house wouldnt be blocking the signal anyways. (the back of my house is on the left, the side of my house is on the right)...

    Install Advice

    I live in a Three story town house. My dish was previously installed on my roof but was removed while my roof was replaced. The HOA says it can no longer go on the roof. (Pole is also not acceptable) My house faces South West and the dish cannot go on the front of my house. If I recall, it...

    Upgrade Advice

    Yes ofcourse. I'll try calling one more time to see if they'll upgrade me to a genie. I don't know how common it is for them to give out a genie. So right now, I'm paying $26.99/mo for the next 12mo. I checked with comcast and I'd pay $33.42 for the next 12mo. After that it would be $81.99...

    Just to report back. Called DirecTV/ATT, went through 4 people before they got me to the loyalty department and send 2.5hrs on the phone. They were able to offer me $26.99 first 12mo, and $81.99 for entertainment. They said they already applied this with no commitment. When I asked for the...
