They had to get the gate calibration fixed (on of Sam's contributions if I remember right). -Sorry to step into the thread out of no where but am/was an avid Stargate series fan since it began and I happened to see the discussion roll by in my phone. I haven't been through the whole thread...

Same-to-same no reply either. If it is helpful, I would be a simple upgrade. 722 lease to 1 hopper 3 joey. :)

Request for PM from DIRT member about an equipment upgrade.

I think you are seeing an optical illusion. Or at least, I can't see the problem as described. I however was equally lazy and didn't break out the tape measure :D

Installer #2 - he called, he came, he arrived and left on time. Like clock work. Kudos to an installer that knows what he is doing. The only sad part as it turns out is I can't get a good enough signal anyway without a mounted extension (that violated the lease here). So all of last...

Yes, did on call 2 and she read it back to me.

Keep in mind (though I don't recall if I stated it before) that the install was still listed as 'Pending' when I called the first csr 40 minutes after the window had transpired. The 'surprise surprise' if he failed to make any of the 3 efforts to gain access to the building, then why would I...

Not nearly as funny as 2 comparable HD Televisions sitting in Best Buy / Circuit City with one getting and SD signal and the other an HD signal and the guy telling you the one that is more expensive (and getting the HD signal) is clearly the better TV. :-)

If only there was a way to tie this to global warming. ;) ... I'll just wait, I'm sure someone at the weather channel will think of a way... :rolleyes:

LOL yes the 12AM would be better served as 'NOON' but you get the point.

Admittedly this is a Rant, but hopefully there is enough spice and humor in it that the read is worth it. :) :) :) So I just physically moved to Pasadena, schedule the installer in advance to be here Wednesday morning (I flew in on tuesday) to put a tripod setup on the balcony of the...

Unknown at this time. She's stretching her legs a bit already going to various place in california while she is out there. Thanks for caring.
